Tomorrow afternoon I'm giving a lightning talk at #BlockchainSpirit where I'll explain how I built a Task Manager using the #solid protocol, come say hi if you're around! https://blockchainspirit.splashthat.com/

Here you can find my slides and a summary of yesterday's presentation on #Solid #MyData https://speakerdeck.com/noeldemartin/an-introduction-to-solid

Today I'll be talking about #Solid in the #MyData meetup (talk in Catalan). Come join us! https://www.meetup.com/MyData-Barcelona/events/268485856/

I am attending #fosdem this weekend, anyone around who wants to talk about #solid and #linkeddata? https://noeldemartin.com/tasks/attending-fosdem-2020

The #fosdem talk about #solid has been uploaded! Check it out for a neat introduction to what's Solid and what it tries to achieve: https://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/fosdem-video/2019/Janson/solid_web_decentralization.mp4

I just completed the first version of my Task Manager using #Solid https://noeldemartin.com/tasks/implementing-a-task-manager-using-solid

Seems like #solid server implementations don't support SPARQL yet, keep that in mind when working with applications storing a lot of data. The current recommendation is to use Globbing instead.

Since I started looking into #solid, I realized it's built on top of many existing technologies I didn't know much about. Check out some basic concepts I'd recommend getting familiar with before learning it: https://noeldemartin.com/tasks/implementing-a-task-manager-using-solid#comment-2

I've been reading about #solid and I am surprised to see that it's, conceptually, almost the same as a project I had been incubating for months. I haven't decided if I will start contributing to solid or continue on my own (or a combination of both). In case you want to check out what I was doing (it's still not even close to release), check it out in those repos:
