This is my second try to move to Mastodon or at least to try to convince myself to use it instead of X. Do you have any recommendations for whom I should follow? I'm interested in #webdev #frontend #javascript #react #vue #next #nuxt
Hello, front-end developers. Here's your infrequent reminder to make websites that also work on browsers NOT Google Chrome.
Forcing anyone to use Google's glorified spyware is not cool.
How many hours a day do you spend staring at a screen? How much do these black mirrors dominate our attention?
**Boost for reach** 🚀
Any screen counts; computer monitor, laptop, phone, TV, smartwatch, timetable at the train station, etc.
Count total time spent with eyeballs pointed at it.

Attention all #Wordpress experts.
We're looking for a new Wordpress developer at CoffeeGeek. Global location isn't important, but your skills, reliability, discretion and availability are.
We are looking for someone who
- has a deep and full understanding of the entire Wordpress infrastructure, back end, multi-site usage, and all the associated coding, css, custom theme work etc.
- Has a good knowledge and understanding of Elementor Pro. We use Elementor Pro and several plug in packages on CoffeeGeek, and have need of some custom work within Elementor.
- working, day to day knowledge and experience with Cpanel, PHP and all the normal server-side stuff that comes along with Wordpress and managing a busy website.
- The usual "back end" knowledge an experience in website management, including CDNs, site security, back up, etc.
- Some SEO experience, the more the better (especially staying on top of current trends
- Some design experience. This isn't crucial, as we have a WP / Elementor designer separate from our WP Developer position. But you knowing some ins and outs of basic design is beneficial
- VERY IMPORTANT: Good availability. I don't expect turnaround in an hour after I send a job request, but responses within 24hr, and normal availability for several hours per week for maintenance / bug chasing (and also larger blocks of time for bigger projects) is expected and required.
- VERY IMPORTANT: you have the ability and desire to make sure all the work you do for us is fully tested and bug checked before signing off on the work. We do have a dev server to test things on, but we will rely on you to deliver finished, generally bug free work.
- Ideally, you are creative on the technical side, are good at hunting down bugs, innovative with fixes, and know how to get the most out of a Wordpress environment.
- you don't have to love coffee, but it would not hurt your application process! :)
I am willing to pay a monthly retainer plus a preferred hourly rate (billed once a month / when tasks are completed and signed off) or a slightly higher straight hourly rate (no retainer) for your work, payment competitive in the US and Canada marketplace.
If interested, please DM me here with your email address, and I will send you more details and ask for your CV, examples of your work, and your company website information.
I am based in Canada, PDT time, and most of the work contact times would be between 1pm and 10pm PDT time.

Here’s my latest case study for a server-rendered HTML of a Mastodon feed with only one progressive enhancement web component (github’s relative-time) — it turned out (surprisingly) pretty good if I may say so myself 🥹
Novo servidor, nova #introduction. Como é de praxe.
Sou um nerd, um otaku, e gamer. Além de alguém que fala muita piada ruim. Me sigam com moderação.
Desenvolvedor de software, especializado em Frontend #WebDev com #ReactJS e às vezes #CSharp. Inclusive, pretendo nos próximos meses comecar a passar um pouco do meu conhecimento no canal @falando_dev
Esperem posts sobre animes (atualmente #Mashle, #Frieren e #DungeonMeshi), jogos (principalmente #GenshinImpact), música e muita aleatoriedade.
My pals in BBC World Service have been doing some awesome work on "lite" versions of their news articles (other page types to follow).
They essentially skip the Server-Side React hydration which means you end up with a simpler HTML+CSS page, no JS.
Page sizes drop significantly:
* Transferred: ~600KB -> 30KB
* Total: 1.65MB -> 135KB
Just append `.lite` on a URL e.g. https://www.bbc.com/mundo/articles/crgyyvdz1dro.lite
There's no on/off UX at the moment but they're working on that too.

New blog post on why I decided to make my own static site generator (and how it's really about making a markdown replacement)

Been waiting for this "A proposal for a web translation API" https://github.com/WICG/translation-api (ever since browsers have their own built-in translation features)
But this got deployed first: "Gemini Nano summarization API available for early preview" https://developer.chrome.com/blog/august2024-summarization-ai

Visiting websites in this 'modern' time is a paradox: standard Web technologies are better but most commercial websites are pretty terrible—not only because misinformation abounds online, but also because of Big Tech's personal data farming that puts us all at a disadvantage.

Hey friends. I'm a talented trans front-end engineer with over a decade of experience working on products you probably have used. I love JavaScript, TypeScript, React, CSS, accessibility, and other web technologies. I recently relocated to Portland, Oregon, and I'm looking for a full time remote job making the internet a better place.

It's going to be a great time for people at *all* levels of experience, so don't miss out. I hope to see y'all there 🤩

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
Front-end #JavaScript frameworks
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!)

Do you need to build a static website for fun or profit? Try the Simple.css Framework. It is a CSS framework that makes semantic HTML look good.
+ A good-looking sans-serif local font stack.
+ Typographic best practices.
+ Automagic flipping to dark mode.
+ Fully responsive.
+ Sensible defaults that format standard + HTML elements.
+ Super lightweight (10k css).
+ Give it a try @ https://simplecss.org/ (my home page https://vivekgite.com for live demo).

I just released my first Kirby CMS plugin today!
It protects your website from unwanted visitors with a password screen. This is useful to share a staging site with your client without needing to set up basic auth or a user account for them.
I'd appreciate any testers! If the plugin works as expected I will submit it to kirby’s plugin repository.

I just released my second @getkirby plugin!
Kirby Admin Bar adds a simple admin bar to your frontend which allows logged in users to:
1. Quickly edit the current page in the panel
2. Access important panel links from the frontend with a single click
3. See your logged in user account and role at a glance and easily access your profile settings
