@mahryekuh Regarding the mandatory "they have their place": I'd argue that React's ONLY place is at Facebook for their internal needs, and even though, they'd be better served by another tool.
React is a bad choice for 99% of the tasks its used for.
"AI can help by providing mostly accurate descriptions of images on web pages. This can be especially helpful when the image has not been provided with an text alternative, but is visible on the page."
I probably get flooded by asking this but welp, here I go:
I'm looking for a good, visual (!) #tutorial for #WebDevelopment that focuses on Codium, Firefox and other Open-Source tools. My specific interests are to learn #HTML, #CSS, #PHP and #SQL. Perhaps some minor #Javascript, however I'd like to primarily work without it.
I'm a visual learner, extended theory in text won't help me at all. As language is visual to me, so is #programming.
@Crell Only if necessary, it makes the learning process unnecessarily convoluted (harder to scrub through a video than a website and the pace is always changing).
Switching It Up With #HTML’s Latest Control: "After years of relying on checkbox hacks to create a “switch” control for forms that toggle between two states, HTML may be gaining a native way to go about it by adding a switch attribute to checkbox inputs." https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2024/05/switching-it-up-html-latest-control/
In 2024, for a locally hosted app that should feel fast, are there good reasons to prefer a pagination UX for an html table vs. showing all ~5k rows and just scrolling through them?
FWIW, I dislike the pagination UX, and resent seeing images load lazily on a 10Gbps network.
The underlying query is essentially instant; the bottleneck appears to be the browser, and I can ~solve that by batching DOM updates.
So many places even have drop downs "Do you want to see 10 rows, 20 rows, 50 rows, or 100 rows" and default to the smallest. I always want the biggest, or even better "all".
@wez I've been playing with HTMX, and one thing I've loved is that it makes infinite scroll trivially easy and responsive. I'm finding I prefer this a ton to pagination.
Ich mag eine #Website machen, möglichst reines #HTML 4, möglichst ohne #Javascript. CSS 3 wenns sein muss, sonst eher 2.
Die Website soll möglichst auf Chrome genauso laufen wie auf Netscape (die Älteren werden sich erinnern...) und auch in Text-Browsern wie Lynx oder w3m.
tl;dr: Die Seite soll auch noch funktionieren, wenn javascript und css ausfallen.
Wie würde ich da denn "Tabs" machen? Oder was wären Alternativen zu tabs?
Mastodon #jerecrute ! Une asso dont je suis membre cherche à refaire son site internet, avec un CMS libre tant qu'à faire, plutôt sur SPIP. est ce que vous connaissez des boites qui propose des presta sur SPIP ? #webdev
Here's another interesting #HTML tag. <mark> lets you highlight certain parts of your text to draw extra attention to it.
One real world example where this can be especially useful is highlighting the parts of your search results that match the search query. Or at least that's where I regularly use it.
sorry that was me, I opened your site in 17k new tabs... but probably a lot of it is from web crawlers, at least I believe most of the traffic on my sites isn't real people based on the numbers and distribution...
Do you know the #HTML tags 'details' and 'summary'? I didn't until now.
The combination of those two let's you toggle content with default HTML behavior. This is one of those things you will probably not use in production because it just doesn't look so nice but as always, for quickly prototyping something like an FAQ section this might just fit in perfectly.
@lyokolux Nothing and you’re absolutely right! I just don’t like the little arrow, it looks a bit „old“ I think but that definitely is not a deal breaker for sure. Maybe you can even change the arrow? Don’t know
Got a Playwright question - in my tests I'm clicking a button which in the backend sends an email. I tried to use Jest to mock that function in the backend so it doesn't send an email, but that doesn't seem to work. Should it?
I could check for NODE_ENV in the backend and not send an email, but I'd like access to the email contents in my playwright test, but without actually sending an email.
@kubikpixel@fedora KDE Plasma also works, but I was never a KDE guy. Personally like gnome more. And this is the great thing about Linux ... you have the choice
See, there are still awesome sites on the Internet. Here you can test-drive roughly 100 monospaced programming fonts. https://www.programmingfonts.org/
I don't have time to look through all of them, so let me know what your favorites are. #webdev
Now that I realize it, I would love to take a break for a few months… Just live my life and not solving luxus problems of other people day by day. Just doing my own thing for some time.
Unfortunately, I don't have rich parents, nor have I inherited wealth from anyone else. So that remains a dream...
Once I thought, what if there was a CSS file that makes the document look like it is a command line interface... So I made one, but I really don't know what it could be used for :) #webdev#css
