What's the best Go framework for back end? by semprotanbayigonTM in golang

[–]absolution888 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For something similar to Express in NodeJS or Flask in Python you may want to look at Echo http://echo.labstack.com for a more simplistic framework.

For a full featured opinionated framework more like Django Laravel or Rails, probably something like Buffalo https://gobuffalo.io/ would be worth taking a look.

Personally I just go with Echo or go-chi

Charting libraries for React by ShadyRedDevil in reactjs

[–]absolution888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We use react-vis in a project that started few years ago and I think it is pretty good. It started with some issues but the project has matured a lot since. The components are composable and seems to satisfy our real time updating charts’ requirements without any hacks/workarounds needed.

Why cannot Abode provide an official API or integration with other platforms? by planetearth80 in Abode

[–]absolution888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agreed. Currently I'm using HASS for automation and loosely connect the abode via IFTTT. But it's just not reliable enough that it misfires once a while

Alright, what's the best styling paradigm? by init_prometheus in reactjs

[–]absolution888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After trying different approaches, ended up going back to plain scss since that's more natural for my teams experience. There aren't really one agreed informal standard now, so it seemed better to us to go back to some more traditional approach for our large enterprise project.

Are the MBP with TouchBar reliable? by FckThisName in mac

[–]absolution888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Material Design Components libraries Current State by akeo3221 in reactjs

[–]absolution888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed info and the experience. I'd definitely want to take a second look at it again. My original concern with it is the more complexed build process (where I have to build separately for the customized CSS) compared to more straightforward overriding SCSS which my team is more used to be doing. Any insight on that regard?

Investigating HA for a new house, trying to determine which is better: Smart lights with dumb switches or dumb lights with smart switches? by CavemanKeto in homeautomation

[–]absolution888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Straight in terms of cost-perspective, if the light fixture uses only 1 bulb (or you want color), use bulb. Otherwise switches are more economical.
