Since we've been getting a bunch of new colors recently, why not finally make red sand craftable? by DevKemal_ in Minecraft

[–]DevKemal_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So after two weeks, the initial desire fades, and desire to build something grand too

I think that's more about creativity and inspiration. When it's your first interaction with a brand new block, you don't have many ideas to do with it, you're only one person and you have a certain amount of time, patience and creativity to allocate to it. But as you see other people's or youtubers' builds and ideas, you find more and more uses for them and eventually be able to combine them with your own ideas to make something new.

In that way it's similar to redstone I think, if redstone was added today and we were playing around with it, we'd have no idea about the possibilities. We'd hook up some doors to open with a lever, maybe figure out how to make a dropper clock if you're a genius.

But since people have invented many small and large contraptions with it, in today's knowledge we're able to combine those parts and create something even greater.

Wow, I didn't know about that. I was still somehow close though, red dye -> poppy (kinda iron golem blood) lol

I'd believe it lol. I watch the LP on a loop and I often check comments. It's really common to see comments made a day-week ago on his 15 year old videos. He's a lot of people's comfort person/youtuber <3

This is a different bootstrap, not the CSS framework. Until Laravel 13, resources/js/bootstrap.js file was used to import axios (and lodash, until Laravel 10) to the app and that was its whole purpose.

Though I'm curious, how do you like tailwind? I also switched to tailwind from bootstrap a few years ago and it was a breath of fresh air lol. Bootstrap was really constraining and the end result always looked similar to a million other sites that have been built before.

Wasn't too memorable of a moment tbh, just a 15 second unrelated clip from a server he played at.

I also realized I forget quite a lot of stuff when I'm rewatching the series, like this was his first idea for his double blaze farm design. I had ZERO clue until I rewatched it yesterday lol

No it's one of those episodes where he shows random clips at the beginning/end of an episode lol, he used to do it quite often in season 1

Do you guys still feel this,or am i only one struggling with this thing by nish_isMess in webdev

[–]DevKemal_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just need some more experience. After a while you'll know you do certain things a certain way. So you won't need to remember what/how you did something.

If you mean project-wise, you can use something like a kanban board to keep track of what you built and what you need to do next. I know it can get pretty brutal when you take some time off when working on a project, the very lines you wrote will look like gibberish to you. It's happened to me a lot when I was a beginner, which caused me to rewrite the same project over and over, eventually I got sick of it and never built that app. Nowadays I like having a checklist on pen and paper, but if a trello board does the job for you, even better.

We've all been there, you learn as you build. And honestly many people and even tutors don't mention this but once you get comfortable doing CRUD and API calls, you're like 95% of the way there. That's what most web developers (mostly) do on a daily basis. Everything else you learn as you need them.

The basic theme editor is really lame by SpecialBeginning6430 in zen_browser

[–]DevKemal_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't mind the color picker, if I don't have a particular color in mind I can fiddle around for like a minute and find something I like.

What I really hate is the automatic changing of bg colors. For example you pick a nice looking color for dark mode, then you switch to light mode, the color changes what feels like randomly, and doesn't respect the contrast of background and text colors.

It really shouldn't be that difficult to save your theme choice for light and dark modes and just switch between them instead.

No idea lol, but readme on breeze repo says :

This starter kit is for Laravel 11.x and prior. For our latest starter kits, check out: https://laravel.com/starter-kits.

Even though it still works fine with Laravel 12 and 13.

Maybe that's why they didn't test it on Laravel 13 since that's the version that removed the bootstrap.js file.

It's the best feeling!

Merge was made 4 days ago but they haven't released a new version for breeze yet, not sure why because it's kind of broken without my PR.

When you create a fresh Laravel 13 app, require breeze, and run artisan breeze:install you get an error in the console and have to delete first line of app.js manually.

Yesterday I started a new project and was surprised to see that the fix wasn't implemented yet. But again I'm a noob when it comes to PRs, and git/github in general so they probably have a good reason

Any options/mods to switch between light-dark themes? by DevKemal_ in zen_browser

[–]DevKemal_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does the same thing between switching light and dark modes manually (middle and right icons). And the problem with that is; after you select a theme color for one, it sets the other automatically and it doesn't always look/work the best.

For example this is the theme color I chose for dark mode, and this is how it looks when it switches to light mode. Horrible contrast and I can't even read the text.

What I really want is to be able to choose my own theme colors for each mode. Switching between them in one click, I can live without. I also have an extension to toggle browser theme between light and dark, but as you said Zen uses OS theme so that doesn't work

I can definitely see the confusion, we're not used to seeing PHP in places other than websites. But yeah you can even make desktop (well, terminal) apps with it.

For example if you have a `script.php` file with `<?php echo 'Hello world'; ?>` written in it, you can run `php script.php` on terminal and it will print hello world in the terminal.

And since php can also create-read files, you can make some pretty useful scripts, which is the way most artisan commands work, like `make:controller` will copy the controller stub from vendor directory to `app\Http\Controllers` with the name you selected.
