Yesterday I with help from the clanker, as an experiment, ported a web app from go+postgres+svelte to ari+duckdb+htmx served locally by busybox httpd. Itโs an analytics โdashboardโ so the stack makes sense. So far looks good. Now I work on the code in vim to make it mine. I want fewer layers of abstraction and less complexity, and this is a learning experience to that end.
I subscribe to the Tony Stark school of engineering. "Sometimes you have to run before you walk." Earlier this year, I built my own static site generator. I hate literally every static site generator out there (not joking). get-taxus.org
Iโve been working with OpenStreetMaps a little and I must say, theyโve done an incredible job. The data are very detailed and accurate, I canโt believe theyโre free to use. Someone must be paying all those topographers somehow or I donโt understand how this can be achieved by volunteers. This project, Warsaw in Voxels which uses them inspired me to play as well.
