I made a new thing: slash pages dot net https://slashpages.net/

What is it? A guide to common pages you can add to your website. Thanks to @shellsharks
for the help in getting a good description together as well.

My blog post about it: https://rknight.me/blog/slash-pages/

Just remembered that time I got help from a local van driver and they showed me this which “stopped the bongs in the van”.

This has replaced the worn grass path meme in my internal references.

@sturobson tempting! Definitely one of my favourite batmobiles, however I’ve not got the spare cash right now. I hope you get a decent offer though, certainly holds value with it's condition

New Web Component! <live-filter>

A Web Component for filtering items using a text input. Made this for a friend a while back and thought I should wrap it up into a neat package to go alongside my other #WebComponents.

I'll get a write up done soon but for now here's the GitHub repo and npm package:

i'm struggling. i'd like to build a very simple website for a client. i could just build it with html+css in a couple of days, but she wants to update the content every now and then.

it's more than "just text" where i could use markdown for the content. there are some special components for blockquotes, a timeline, pricing table, etc. required.

usually i like my contentful+astro setup, but for this project it feels like an overkill (because time and budget are limited).

any ideas/thoughts? 🤔

DavidDarnes,
@DavidDarnes@mastodon.design avatar

@lara_amalia @patrickfulton a handful that come to mind:

They all work in a similar way, editing git repos that trigger a static deploy. Would recommend breaking down the content into small data files so you can incorporate them into the CMS easily

Pro tip for those of you who need the caffeine to hit harder this Monday morning

jQuery plugins depended on jQuery, and when jQuery went out of favor, they ended up in the junkyard.

There is all sorts of componentry built exclusively on React, limiting it to React-based sites. As React goes out of favor, they will end up in the junkyard. (Same with any framework-specific extension.)

But with Web Components... it seems like the story will end differently. If they are built without dependencies, they might just live as long as the web does.

DavidDarnes,
@DavidDarnes@mastodon.design avatar

@cferdinandi @chriscoyier all the open source Web Components I’ve made are dependency free 😄

DavidDarnes,
@DavidDarnes@mastodon.design avatar

@cferdinandi @chriscoyier I’m afraid that’s how the community works. Nobody is really going to get hyped about my handful of tiny Web Components, they’re getting doughy-eyed at the big shiny frameworks. And I’m kinda ok with that. If Web Awesome helps Web Components attain a bigger audience then great. At least then more people get to appreciate a slice of the benefits to

DavidDarnes,
@DavidDarnes@mastodon.design avatar

@cferdinandi @chriscoyier agree! But I don't think that's a Web Components problem, that's a JS and developers problem 😅

Even if you like AI wouldn’t you rather influence a data source that may direct people to your web properties over just helping a single service with their endeavours?

@garthdb @patrickfulton plus it’ll be next to the source code, and if you make it public it’ll get indexed just like an open forum (hopefully 🤞🏻)
