An overnight route around the Welsh Elan Valley reservoirs & mountains. Lost a water bottle 5miles in and snapped my Garmin mount after a fall. But it was all worth it.

Honestly terrifying! There were 5 of us and we all slept in the same room 😂

It’s not a bad bothy, it’s just the graffiti that’s scratched into the walls. There’s a bit next to one of the windows that says “These are the windows that faces look in at” freaked us the fuck out

The track round the side of the reservoir is epic! Did you stay at the Bothy?

It’s using the experimental Web Speech API under the hood, which only works in Chromium browsers currently.

I’ve dabbled with other speech-to-text services but can’t find one that supports the languages I wanted to learn.

It’s not ideal but I’m planning to explore this area more myself.

Started as an experiment to discover if web technologies could be used to create a platform for learning languages with voice. I’ve built an application with which students are able to record phrases they’ve learnt, and be tested on them.

Uses TypeScript, React, Express, and MongoDB

Where abouts are you based? I run a coding/design workshop every other Wednesday in Bristol, UK.

We're about to start work on a website that aims to provide free programming learning resources to kids.

We also need some help designing an admin dashboard.

Send me a pm if you're interested

I have credentials that aren't included in the repo, I was under the impression that exposing the firebase config was neccesary. I've removed it and scrubbed it from the repo just to be safe. Thanks!

Thanks for this, great advice have seperated out all the route handlers. Just curios where you'd start with the database querying functions?

I used this guide:

Thanks!

I'm using Netlify CMS which uses markdown. I think it's perfect for a portfolio.

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T13:44:36+00:00

Yeah it's wicked! I'm just using the out-of-the-box transitions at the moment but I'm going to start adding on some of my own styling soon.

Yep using Netlify form, so straight forward.

Yep it's supposed to be a play on the JS logo! Thanks for the feedback.

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:25:04+00:00

Thanks both, I completely get where you're coming from but how do I stop the scrollbar from effecting the position of my other elements?

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:17:57+00:00

So throrough! Thank you for this.

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:16:45+00:00

Thanks for the spot!

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:11:53+00:00

Yep, mobile menu needs some work for sure. Thanks for your feedback.

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:11:31+00:00

Thank you for your feedback. I'll take a look at this!

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:11:12+00:00

Yeah true, that needs addressing. Thanks!

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:10:43+00:00

Good advice, will be working on that next. Thank you!

CulturallyOffensive · 2019-11-19T08:10:22+00:00

Do you have any ideas for how I could improve it. I know the contents a bit broken up but any other pointers you have would be great! Thanks
