⚠️ PSA: Bad news, everyone! ⚠️

It turns out #Django is not a #WebFramework and is only useful for #CRUD. 🤯

Wish y'all had told me that before I built a multi-level multitenant #WebApp for managing a utilities district's operations, scheduling, graph-based infrastructure models, GIS, communications, etc on... Django.

I guess it's time to shut down my business and scrap my upcoming #PyCon US talk 🤷‍♂️😆

A small Web app that lets you do quick & basic photo editing right in your browser, however, there's no uploading required, all the editing is done client side, with no need to send the image to a server or anywhere else.

And the icing on the cake? It's fully open source too!!

Un comprobador de nombres para evitar que se cuelen palabrotas que «suenan mal» en 19 idiomas microsiervos.com/archivo/mundo

WordSafety es una curiosa herramienta que nos permite descubrir si una palabra significa algo desagradable en otros idiomas. Es ideal para quien necesita crear una nueva marca y quiere evitar sustos en el mercado internacional como los del Mitsubishi Pajero o el castillo Laputa.

Paradójicamente, la web sobre palabras seguras no utiliza protocolo seguro (nada grave cuando solamente vamos a hacer consultas).

The @w3c Compute Pressure #API specification defines a set of pressure states (e.g. high CPU load) delivered to a #WebApp to signal when adaptation of the workload is appropriate to ensure consistent quality of service. #timetoimplement
▶️ w3.org/TR/compute-pressure/

The document defines 3 concepts: processing units (such as the CPU), supported sources (such as #GPU), sampling and reporting rates.

Key usage scenarios are described in this explainer: github.com/w3c/compute-pressur

www.w3.orgCompute Pressure Level 1The Compute Pressure API provides a way for websites to react to changes in the CPU pressure of the target device, such that websites can trade off resources for an improved user experience.

Caca en el trabajo – Calculadora de ganancias caca.alfa.mobi/

¿Quién no ha deseado alguna vez calcular cuánto dinero le pagan por hacer «cuestiones cotidianas» en horario laboral? en este caso hablamos de ir al baño, pero podría ser la pausa para el café o el descanso para fumar (del que tiene una calculadora idéntica en la zona superior).

Este recurso me parecía ideal para celebrar un 1 de mayo como este.

Some people miss the event functionality of Facebook. I’ve found that Partey.io is a great, free alternative that’s very easy to use. It doesn’t require an account, looks great—and it even has confetti.

Alternatively, there's also an open-source, decentralized event tool that looks great. It may be a bit trickier to set up for the average user but definitely worth checking out, I’d say: mobilizon.org

Looking for CMS advice

Hey Web devs!

Do you have any suggestions, tips, opinions, dos, don’ts about headless CMSes?

I have a growing list of small/mid non-profits and collectives asking for my help to (re)make their website. I totally want to help, but I don’t have much time, especially considering that they generally have little or no funding—I would most definitely point them to @VillageOneCoop, otherwise.

Therefore, I want a super simple and replicable solution where I can copy-paste most of the code, while providing them with a stable, fast, and modern solution. I had a look at the Headless CMS section in the Jamstack website, but I need opinions from people who actually used some of that software already.

Needs

  • I want to code and configure everything using @eleventy
  • Admin interface (#WebApp) for the client to add pages and write posts
  • Static website in the front-end
  • Simple and reliable CI/CD
  • No/minimal maintenance after the first setup
  • Self-hostable (I was taking this for granted so much that I forgot to write it)
  • If it requires forge integration, it should support #ForgeJo
  • #OpenSource

Nice to have

  • Possibly using #Deno, not #NodeJS
  • Allowing the client to customize a bit their website through the admin interface, with a GUI
  • CMS app packaged on @yunohost
  • No CMS vendor lock-in
  • I’d love to write as little JavaScript as possible
  • #FreeSoftware

Absolutely not

Please, boost this and ask around! Links to videos, tutorials, and resources are welcome.

People whose perspective I would really value: @zachleat @harryfk @deno_land @jaredwhite @vanillaweb @stefan @mxbck @WeirdWriter @deadsuperhero (Sorry if I am spamming you!)

Seit langem mal wieder Webgedöns gebaut. Bin da seit Ewigkeiten raus gewesen, weil bei mir sonst Echtzeit usw. Frage mich aber jetzt, welches Zeug in der Web-Community geraucht wird? Nicht nur die JavaScript/Typescript Dependency-Hölle sondern generell dieses Async-Gebrabbel, der ganze serverless Quatsch oder dieser PWA-Schwachsinn. Das Zeug sollte vielleicht länger als drei Minuten wartbar sein? Ihr stellt diese Angriffsflächen as a Service so ins Netz? Ernsthaft?
