in reply to eleventy-cache-webmentions

Happy to announce that I’ve released version 1.0.0 of Eleventy Cache Webmentions! Although it introduces some breaking changes for earlier versions, 1.0.0 makes it a lot easier to attach Webmentions to your pages as data using eleventyComputed. Check out my…

in reply to eleventy-cache-webmentions

Just updated eleventy-cache-webmentions to version 0.2.0, a shallow first attempt at making the package work with any Webmention server, not just Webmention.io.

Happy to say the sparklines are going well—pushed an update yesterday, in fact, to allow them to inherit the color of wherever they are in the DOM for the colour of the line itself. Still working on posting a bit more!…

Finding Purpose in CSS

I think you hit the nail on the head with this one. As I like to think CSS is my strongest language (the ego on this guy, honestly), your simile with the layout of a keyboard was spot on—layout, in particular,…

Fixed a bug in eleventy-cache-webmentions from a silly assumption I made about determining a since value to get new Webmentions when the cache exists.

in reply to JavaScript30 Day #02 - Wes Bos’ JavaScript30 course, grouping operator, HOCs in ReactJS. by Ru Singh

Uh oh, I’ve been found out… Ru totally sniped me with her call-out, in the best way possible! I guess I better double-down and make this a proper thing for myself—30 days, 30 JS challenges—let’s do this! I made a little Eleventy…

Thanks Keith. Aw, this makes me so sad. I hope that we at least get to see a flourishing and full-of-life Hyrule in the sequel. I loved exploring the broken and devastated world in BotW, but I do wish there…

Nooo, what a terrible disappointment! BotW is one of my all-time favourite games and I've been stoked for the 2nd… Do you happen to have a link to the full news from Nintendo?

I've been using Odesli [https://odesli.co] (formerly Songlink) for a bit of time now, and although I haven't heard any feedback about it, provides links out to multiple platforms like I think you're looking for!

I'd consider myself a beginner; I found it very approachable, and it strengthened my core JS knowledge, making me more confident to explore more advanced topics. I think it's best to have some basic experience with JS, but that's it!…

I've been thinking about this ever since you posted it, and this realisation resonates really strongly with me. Coding is a means to an end for me now, rather than coding for its own sake, and hey, bonus I'm getting…

@Anonymous Do you have any ideas how to present this metadata in a way such that information doesn’t get lost?

I think I'm going to try to make this happen. For a long time I have been building my site on a mostly vanilla Jekyll set-up as an example of a complex site that works on GitHub Pages, but I…

Neil, this is both remarkably well-written and informative! I have to agree with all the points you’ve raised, particularly about the high barrier to entry for non-technical folks wanting to get on the Fediverse, but I think with posts like…

That's totally fair—I think development can and should be a joy wherever possible! I don't think that strict adherence to a standard trumps happiness—I think the opposite—but I do often wonder if there's a middle ground and how to get…
