I'm quite surprised with React & Next JS, I was always opinionated but I don't mind it too much. Svelte will never be topped from the frontend, Vue I've really enjoyed using this year having used it on projects but React comes in a decent third

Spent some time today experimenting with shaders, which I've wanted to for quite a while. I've documented my first real dive into this side of development liamlyness.co.uk/rambles/div…

I've wanted to properly learn shaders for a while, mostly out of frustration with how much of the interesting visual stuff on the web (the distortion, the little reactive touches you see on portfolio...

Over the weekend I quickly built a personal log website to document all the projects and experiments I work on. The first post on there I wanted to touch on a sample manager I started building a few months back and recently picked up again liamlyness.co.uk/rambles/bui…

If you produce music, you'll know the problem already: thousands of samples scattered across drives, half-remembered filenames, and no good way to find "that one weird vocal chop from three years...

Always like when a question leads to learning of a new tool. Building out a little blog / portfolio to keep a log of projects and wanted something light and easy to use for content. Came across Decap, small CMS that writes to markdown straight to GitHub

Even better for me is I don't need to mess around with OAuth because it allows a local version to be spun up which then I can just commit my content changes before pushing to GitHub. Does everything I need for this small project and happy with how it's going

11 years in yet I'm still reminded how unpredictable and brutal a career in tech can be!

Personal preference: - Svelte w/Sveltekit for the main framework - Tailwind for CSS styling - Sqlite via Turso - Drizzle on - Roll own Auth with Lucia - Deploy on VPS with Coolify - As an extra due to heavy front end background I use Motion for animations

- Svelte as it's heavy on web standards, blazingly fast and a joy to build with. - Tailwind is a no brainer - Turso has been so nice to use, and I'm a huge Sqlite fan - Drizzle has been my go to orm, love how close to SQL it is - Lucia was how I got my head around Auth

Laravel Forge now has a first-party integration with @statamic, a CMS built on Laravel. This means you can create a new site with a Statamic starter kit all within your Forge dashboard.

Has anyone recently embedded an Instagram feed onto a website? With the basic display API being depreciated what's the correct way to go about this?

It doesn't matter what framework, libraries or tools you use. 90% of users won't notice, and they all can achieve similar results. Build in what you're most confident with, and the DX you prefer. This will transfer to the quality of your product, and your time building it

Two more days of handover, then I'll be ready to start my new position on Monday. Always a weird feeling as you're about to leave a job, especially one that's been a joy over the last year
