I finally completed Josh W Comeau's course, and I have to say it's the most comprehensive course I've ever seen. It should be required material for anyone working with CSS (I'm not kidding).
And to top it off, it's super fun!

Reminder that next month I'll be attending the 2nd #SolidSymposium in Belgium. And I can now confirm that I'll be giving not one, but two talks! One about Developer Experience, and another one about Local-first CRDTs.
The registrations are open, I'm looking forward to meet you there :).
robustly-secured data that can surprisingly vanish at a moments notice
I just posted an update about the work I'm doing on my framework to make Solid Apps, Aerogel.
I recently started rebuilding my first Solid App, and I tell you how that's going and my typical development workflow. check it out!
In a couple of months, I'll be attending the 2nd Solid Symposium in Leuven, Belgium. I missed it last year, but I'm looking forward to attending this one! I'll also participate in a session on CRDTs (and maybe one on DX), it should be fun :D.
@rosano I think it depends a lot on how close someone is to having enough financial security, but I'm pretty sure everyone would choose more meaning. The thing, though, is that not everyone's idea of "meaning" is the same.
Some people also don't seem to ever reach financial security because they increase their expenditure with more income.
@moodlefairy Thanks, it was fun :D
I realize I didn't post it before; here you can find some of the talks I'll be attending and what else I'll be doing at #fosdem https://noeldemartin.com/tasks/attending-fosdem-2024
@rosano I guess I'd say this one, which isn't linked from anywhere right now but existed on the first version of the site :) https://noeldemartin.com/experiments
On the topic of unbroken links, I love this page, maybe you haven't seen it: https://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI

What does it mean to own your data? Can you have it and still not have it?
I'll be attending FOSDEM in a couple of weeks, let me know if you're around in Brussels and want to meet :).
@martin Nice, I forgot to mention kill-the-newsletter, but I use it too :D.
Didn't know about openrss.org :)
@martin That's great :) I've been using RSS for ages and I think it's great.
A couple of tips, if a website doesn't have an RSS feed you can use something like FetchRSS.com to generate it yourself. And you can also subscribe to any github repo/subfolder with the following url: `github.com/{user}/{repository}/commits/{branch}/{path-to-file-or-folder?}.atom`
For example: https://github.com/moodle/moodle/commits/main/local/upgrade.txt.atom
In this talk, @aveltens nails THE most important point of Solid. We don't need a killer app, we need an ecosystem of apps that work together!
Owning your data is cool and all, but these experiences show the true power of Solid.
One of the best things you can do to improve the stability of your apps is writing tests, and Cypress is the best tool for the job!
To help you with that, I just released a plugin that makes testing Solid Apps super easy. I hope you find it useful :).
@rosano @jessmartin What do you mean with "interop-pilled"? Does it mean being convinced that it is important? Or learning about it? Or both?
Maybe you should add Cambria to the list :) https://www.inkandswitch.com/cambria/
@nickform Thank you :)
The framework is still a work in progress, and I don't even have written any documentation yet so I don't think it would be easy for others to use. But eventually I'd like to do it, and one of the core ideas is that all the "best practices" such as how should a Solid Login behave come baked in with the framework :).
