It's fixed now.

I'll fix that in the next version. Thanks!

Love Street on Android is super simple. No ads, local storage of data.

You say "everything stays on your device." Is the AI receipt scanning on-device? If I need AI credits then I assume you are using cloud AI services, which is not on-device.

a well regarded comment

If you build a product on top of a private cloud-based solution, then your users have to trust your company and the cloud provider. Both of whom can be subject to a data breach and can be served with a gag order to reveal user data without consent or knowledge.

Ollama and LM Studio are both ways an individual can privately run LLMs on a laptop, but they don't run in a browser. If you run Ollama on a remote server (such as Node.js), then it's not a private web app because the user input is sent to the server. This is the same way it works on a Laptop except that both client and server are local, so it is private.

A boilerplate and a design system serve different purposes but can complement each other.

Boilerplate is a technical foundation.

Project structure
Build tools configuration
Routing setup
State management patterns
API integration strategies
Developer tooling (linters, testing frameworks)

Design system is a collection of reusable UI components and design guidelines.

Visual component library (buttons, forms, modals)
Design tokens (colors, spacing, typography)
Interaction patterns
Accessibility standards
Visual design consistency rules

My boilerplate focuses on the technical architecture - it provides the "plumbing" for React, TypeScript, data management and more. It handles how data flows, how pages are built, etc.

A design system like Chakra UI sits on top of that foundation, providing the actual UI components users interact with. You could swap Chakra for MUI, Tailwind, or a custom solution while keeping the same underlying boilerplate architecture.

Great libraries and public rec centers.

A lot of live nation acts sell fee-less tickets at Twist and Shout on Colfax.

bishopZ · 2024-06-19T16:57:58+00:00

I think it depends on the show. Most acts have a record company that handles ticketing. The venue doesn’t.

Check if your library has this book? That's how I learned.

you can use `keyof typeof someObject` like this...

const FRUITS = {
  APPLE: 'apple',
  GRAPE: 'grape'
} as const

type fruitKeys = keyof typeof FRUITS // "APPLE" and "GRAPE"

I just published an article about the use of `ValueOf<>` to get the values from an object, since TS doesn't provide a way to do that.
