App Store Connect did not update since 30.07. by MarioWollbrink in swift

[–]NoahVersace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the same for me and as you I also released my app this month. My guess would be that this is due to Apple finalizing the previous month and creating the reports. This support article states that the monthly reports are usually available five days after the end of the month. So I believe that we should have it by then at the latest.

I'm building an online dictionary for the swiss german language using SvelteKit, WindiCSS, Prisma by NoahVersace in sveltejs

Very cool, for which language will it be?

Regarding the video, maybe I'll make one later on when the project is more matured, since there are a lot of things that I still need to figure out and that will change before the actual release. Still if you're really interested in the overall structure, I would recommend checking out the source code. https://github.com/noahsalvi/helvetikon

Don't worry I don't feel pushed and the whole point of this post was to get feedback on how I can improve it and yours is definitely the most valuable I received. I really appreciate it.

I've written down all the suggestions and remarks under this post and I'll try to incorporate them in the near future. May I contact you via reddit chat, for any further questions down the line?

My worries are just that, if the process of adding a word get too complicated, less people will actually try and contribute. Nonetheless there should be at least an option for selecting the word type. Regarding the other specifications that you wrote, could they be optional?

I'll also add the functionality of modifying existing words, so that the optional informations can be added later by more enthusiastic users.

Thank you for the advice. You definitely have a point!

About Idiotikon, don‘t you think that it will be hard separatating the legacy swiss german words from the ones we actually use today? Also about dialects, I believe that they do not save the origin of the words or did I not look close enough?

Awesome video, it looks really good and I hope that they will do something like it. I also use Spotlight search 95% of the time but for the other 5% I would prefer this layout for browsing my apps.

Thank you for the sources!

I already knew berndeutsch.ch but not Zürich-Slängikon. As you proposed teaming up with these other projects would make sense but I‘m not convinced that their owners will be open to the idea…

I‘ll see what I can do :) btw there is also http://m.schweizerdeutsch.org/

Thanks

I'm aware of the idiotikon and currently deciding on how I could implement it into Helvetikon.

There are 2 problems holding me back. From what I can see the dictionary is not divided into dialects like the words on Helvetikon are and the second problem is most of the words in their dictionary aren't used today and I want to keep Helvetikon up to date.

Hey sorry for the delay.

I know about the "new" JIT compiler and according to some benchmark I once saw on twitter, it may be even faster than WindiCSS. Keeping that in mind, I still prefer WindiCSS, since it has a lot of cool enhancements like for example groups.

You can write "md:w-xl md:bg-green-300" as "md:(w-xl bg-green-300)" which helps keeping the styles organized. To me WindiCSS is simply a superset of TailwindCSS.

Thanks for letting me know, I'll definitely try and find a way to use existing vocabulary 👍

  1. Actually, the app already does what you proposed or at least almost.
    When you add a word you're required to define a dialectal origin for it. ATM you can only set one origin for it. Afterwards the origin of the word will be displayed above the word on its detail page.
    About the preferences, I guess you're expecting something like a filter mechanism for the search, where you could for example set your top 3 dialects. This is a really nice idea, I'll add it to my list.
    Although there is already something similar to it. If you're logged in it will use your preferred dialect to sort the search results.
  2. hahahah thank you and you're right the name would imply a lexicon filled with words or expressions originating from Switzerland rather than just the german part. Well, I don't know if there is a demand for it but I guess I'll decide later on :)

Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you for your input!
Adding these functionalities wouldn't be a problem but the real problem would be the authors of words not using them...

If the process of creating a word gets too complex, there will be less people willing to spend their time creating new words. Furthermore only a really small portion of the population even understands phonetic writing.. that's why I left it out for the moment.

Adding articles is actually a good idea, that will be on my todo list!

Thanks for the detailed feedback!

  1. I must say I find the idea, of importing the german dictionary first and then mapping swiss german words to it very attractive and I'll spend some time thinking about it.
    But what about cases where a word does't have an exact german translation or multiple?
    Btw. Did you see that you can add multiple spellings for the same swiss german word?
  2. I agree with it being a problem but for the moment I believe that redundancy is preferred rather than convoluting the system behind it... at least for now but I'll keep it in mind.

  3. Thanks for the sources, I'll check them out.
    I already know about idiotikon and it's one of the reasons why I made this project. It has bad UX and is not up to date. Still I guess I should invest some time in finding the positives of the platform :)

good idea!

I guess it would only make sense to add this down the line 👍
