(#rqitkva) @novaburst@twt.nfld.uk I see, I was looking at something for encrypting with a simple password without anything else.
Maybe i should be making my own tool too, it was in my plans anyway.
(#53wqhjq) @prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, I saw gopass and the android client too but I donāt like the fact that I have to take around a gpg key, I prefer having something deterministic of easily replicable even without the original at hand.
(#53wqhjq) @novaburst@twt.nfld.uk Did you fork it from pass or is something completely different? I was thinking of building one myself for a while now.
@ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com Keepass is pretty nice but I prefer a plain text system like pass.
I donāt even keep my own passwords written anywhere, I just need to remember the username, thatās why I thought of using a stateless approach AND a password manager for the others accounts.
(#ppbmueq) @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com Nice, take care of the API too! š
(#puslfoq) @novaburst@twt.nfld.uk I too have to keep track of lot on accounts, I use an org-mode file to know where I have which account.
I even have to keep track of other peopleās accounts too, luckily only for storage purpose, since they canāt understand the importance of remembering their own passwords, I can count to over 140 in total. š
(#xd6wama) @prologic@twtxt.net Sure, Iāll be working on the project plan and data layer in the meantime. šŖ
(#dq5nmlq) @prologic@twtxt.net xmpp?
(#xd6wama) @prologic@twtxt.net Having everything under one endpoint is better for other integration too I think.
Iām missing endpoints because I didnāt see them under the spec page, I should check the repo then, Iām also missing the response structure, but I can directly look it up later when working on the API.
(#ttofg7a) @prologic@twtxt.net Perfect! š
Iāll have to rework the layout a bit to let everyone work with my setup then, Iāll of course put the instructions to my workflow in the Readme.
(#bg2vtbq) @prologic@twtxt.net Nice, Iāll look at it when working on the app.
(#bg2vtbq) @prologic@twtxt.net Hope to be!
Just understand better how you browse, do you use a dedicated app or plugin or you simply zoom in the page with the native zooming?
(#ttofg7a) @prologic@twtxt.net Ok! š
I canāt say much about the theme decision but I think who choose that should know that the NEED JavaScript if they want to change it back and to see anything in the first place, that also means that we need an API for selecting the theme for the #pwa too.
For mitigate the risks we should have a noscript
tag with a description and a static link or action to revert the decision, it can be tested via lynx or any other cli browsers, I canāt help there for now through.
(#xd6wama) @prologic@twtxt.net Yes, thanks you.
For now Iāll try to use what we have already, the API in dev.twtxt.net seems to cover most actions, the only APIs that are missing are one for reporting and the actions on twts (mute, bookmark, etc.) and one with the metadata of the pod too, (version, branch, references, etc.).
Iām not real time by nature š„“ so I think working with issues and yarn should be enough for now.
(#ttofg7a) @prologic@twtxt.net Just did yesterday. āļø
(#bg2vtbq) @prologic@twtxt.net I see, thank you for explaining your experience with UIs.
Iāll try to make it so it doesnāt get in the way as you described. š
(#asegxpa) @mutefall@twtxt.net Yes, i mentioned USB and SD cards because they are what I use for installing nowadays I also have a TinyCore Linux on a old 512Mb SD card with persistence that works flawlessly as a recovery OS.
With my old phone I even used an app to install the live CD and writable in my phone using an app for Android rooted devices to use as a portable recovery or persistent USB hub, I donāt remember the name but I can look it up if you. want.
just opened invidious for myself
Alright! Finally got everything set up to start working on the #pwa! šŖšŖšŖ
Iāll be working only on the #pwa repo and Iāve set a local proxy on a throwaway docker instance of yarnd as a local backend.
First will be to get all the API mapped and then Iāll try to get everything to work with less graphics elements as i can at first. š
For the rest Iāll write down a quick list of the next steps to do as soon as I can.
Meanwhile feel free to give any suggestions/proposal/alternative on the UI or any questions/request for the project. š
(#asegxpa) @mutefall@twtxt.net Thats right!
Maybe installing it in dual boot or on a usb drive or sd card, can help you set up on the hardware part.
(#ttofg7a) @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com My suspect was right, the fix is:
dialog {
flex-direction: column;
}
But this put the texts on two lines, it can be fixed by wrapping them with a plain div
or span
to convert them to a single child in the flexbox container.
I should make an account soon so i can help directly and start with the pwa too⦠š
(#asegxpa) @mutefall@twtxt.net So youāre using NixOS now? Me too! š
I made the switch by setting it up first in VirtualBox, then copied the configuration.nix
and used it directly on a new install on my actual PC, the transition wasnāt much trouble either.
I think today Iāll try not to sleep
(#6pcl34q) @david@netbros.com Thatās right, Iāll keep that in mind.
Iāll rely on you on looking for issues while working on the app. š
(#bg2vtbq) @prologic@twtxt.net Do you mean mouse over as interactions or what exactly?
To me hovers are mostly for visual feedback.
I too find them bothersome when they cover half screen with weird popups from mega menus for example.
(#7wdfdva) @mutefall@twtxt.net lmao something strange happened to the channel and they removed public preview of posts
(#ttofg7a) @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com When on my PC Iāll check it out too.
At first glance is the direction of the elements, is it made with flexbox? In that case it must be the flex direction
.
(#bg2vtbq) @prologic@twtxt.net Since weāre in topic I would like to ask about the accessibility part for the pwa, I looked at the documentation of the polythene library and it seems well covered on that part, are there any particular additions that might be useful?
Usually thereās not much request at my office so I just focus on having the application decently organized on the HTML structure and allowing a good keyboard navigation but not much else.
(#ttofg7a) @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com Itās amazing! I have a friend who is into building with LEGO and have an entire room filled with miniature and not so miniatures. š
(#ttofg7a) @prologic@twtxt.net Donāt worry, leave it to us. š
(#ttofg7a) @prologic@twtxt.net The label get crushed on the right side of the image when opened.
I canāt help right now, but Iāll give a quick look once Iām on my PC later.
(#pvohbma) @prologic@twtxt.net Iām not sure, but this is the best I found on a quick search: PeerChat, if I remember correctly OwnCloud offer a chat plugin which is self hosted too.
Fun fact: I thought of making an app like that for fun just two days ago while chatting with a friend, never started since I didnāt really needed and was more of a toy project though. š
(#2kj5qta) @mutefall@twtxt.net Nice!
Waiting some more feedback from others.
Meanwhile Iāll be planning the app feature tree to manage the work.
#pwa
must start to learn social engineering againā¦
(#7wdfdva) @off_grid_living@twtxt.net I canāt say this is not much different. In Russia when you goes to public demonstrations made for liberty of minds, stopping the war, making free political prisoners and etc, u can get more then headache. u can get a some years in prison, repression and intimidation of your family (or just stealing family but this is purely Caucasian history). and also, mostly at public events, people are beaten to fractures and severe beatings.
police arresteed woman just for white paper
very ironically
(#2kj5qta) @thecanine@twtxt.net Yeah, I tried playing around for some variety, the first one is my favorite too, letās see if someone else have any other idea.
(#2kj5qta) And here the mockups for the profile.
Three versions here too:
Feedback appreciated here too!
#pwa
(#2kj5qta) @thecanine@twtxt.net Going pure black with a light border should do the job, on the other too.
(#2kj5qta) Here I come with another mockup!
This time the feed/post layout, with three ideas:
Hope to hear some feedback from you!
#pwa
(#2kj5qta) @thecanine@twtxt.net Yeah, if something is missing, me, you and everyone else can add anything they might need.
Itās true that it shares data with chrome since it IS chrome even if installed.
Using Cordova should fill the need of physically separate the app from the browser plus adding an API for native interactions and having more control on the output generated.
Still, the first step is to have the app working. š
(#2kj5qta) @thecanine@twtxt.net Iām more of a circle fan, but everything can be done, it could be a custom option.
Your concerns about switching to a webapp are not much to worry about if the PWA is made correctly, Here an example i made when building my ParcelJS setup for my office, if you select āInstall Appā from the tab options it will install like a normal app.
Also AppsGeyser simply wrap with a frame your website, a PWAs is not made that way.
To learn more on PWAs check this out.
(#2kj5qta) @carsten@yarn.zn80.net Everyone has itās pain that canāt get free fromā¦
Just donāt use them in personal projects! (btw i used Inkscape for mine).
(#2kj5qta) @carsten@yarn.zn80.net Yeah. I already know of it, but I think itās dangerous if used without thinking.
I prefer doing a simple sketch by hand or stylized (like the one I shared) to avoid getting used to a style and then getting stuck to it on any iteration.
To me mockups should be to plan and understand how a pure interface works best and nothing more.
I compare designing then as playing with index cards, you shuffle them, fold them and overlap them.
This is something that those tools never helped me do easily.
(#2kj5qta) @prologic@twtxt.net Hope to see it soon. š
(#2kj5qta) @prologic@twtxt.net Nice. Yeah, letās focus on that.
I also recall Google offering a section dedicated to publishing pure PWAs directly in the Play store but Iām not sure if itās still there.
And also being a PWA could open the possibility of an iOS version too, I donāt own any Apple devices so canāt help there. š
(#2kj5qta) @prologic@twtxt.net Ooh. š²
I didnāt know about the plan to replace Goryon, how do you manage to compile it for Play store and the others?
(#6uaf4fq) @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com On simplicity I meant. š
(#6uaf4fq) @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com I first noticed on my phone on Chrome then on PC the issue was still there on Chromium on Linux.
I should expand on my definition of flexibility:
Regarding CSS, the general rules on CSS often seems complex but once I started using Suit CSS on plain projects (or BEM if you prefer) and CSS Modules with bundlers plus dropping any kind of framework, the only limitations became how CSS worked natively.
I also started using CSS Flexbox and CSS Grid for anything on layouts and all my problems vanished.
I also use CSS over JS for most of my interfaces, instead of replacing a section I just hide or move it with CSS allowing me to change many parts by just switching a simple class.
