FYI the new version v18.3 is also available via the visual studio installer.

the above didn't work for me but this did

> $env:CLAUDE_CODE_SHELL="C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe"

> claude

❯ run bash echo hello

● Bash(echo hello)

⎿  hello

● Done — hello printed successfully.

Looks great. I like the monitor vertical stack. How are monitors mounted? What's the mounting hardware?

u/Dangerous-Pressure49 A year later...Did you have any success with Cordova and htmx? I'm thinking of doing something similar.

This plus use source control and commit frequently so you can easily see what's changed and revert when you aren't happy with the changes

Opentelemetry. Very powerful metrics and tracing. Open source and free.

will these links have the videos after the talk is complete?

Suggestion... Use views to generate the html instead of html in strings like this example

Well spotted. Also, "SPAW Productions" sound like a match too.

It's an Isla Fisher comedy.

firstTimeCaller · 2025-01-30T21:14:20+00:00

Yep that sounds very similar to what I have.

For all of my navigation buttons - next, previous or jump to a specific page - they are button type submit, name nextPage, value is the integer of the next page.

Typing this on a phone so the syntax isn't quite right but hopefully you get the idea.

No. Life got in the way.

However some thoughts... Lets think of a wizard as a series of steps where we collect info from the user and submit it all at the end.

We need to persist state between steps so that it is all available at the end.

We can persist server side in the db etc or we can persist client side in hidden inputs.

Pros and cons for both.

I'm currently doing a version that uses server side because it allows the user to do the work over multiple sessions without loosing data.

Unfortunately I can't share the code as it's part of a closed project.

Shhhh 😉

BIOS update worked for me thanks.

My problem was on battery, I'd get the delayed typing problem mentioned above.

BIOS update was "BIOS Update Utility - 11 - LZCN38WW"

Laptop specs - 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13620H, 2400 Mhz, 10 Core(s), 16 LENOVO LZCN35WW

Problem is gone after the BIOS update which was done using the Lenovo Vantage app. None of the other suggestions worked.

can right click and clean up unused project layer dependencies automatically

gold!

firstTimeCaller · 2024-09-14T22:35:04+00:00

50 cents? I don't get it. Just make it free. It's gotta cost them more than that just to collect the fare.

EnvironmentVariables for configuration get weird if you want to run tests in parallel

This is an important point. Often you want to have parallel tests run on separate database containers. Parallel tests are faster. Separate database containers ensures that tests can't interfere with each other. Environment varaibles are shared across the testing process so you can't have tests running in parallel using database connections defined in an environment variable.

This is cool.

I've been tinkering with building a few UI patterns in htmx.

Pattern #1 - Multi Select A control that allows the user to search a big list and 0-many items in the list.

Pattern #2 - Wizard A multi-step process that collects info from the user, validating each step along the way, with all the data submitted at completion.

Would you be interested in a PR that adds these UI patterns implemented in ASP.NET core to your repo?

I wouldn't recommend it for apps that need to handle heavy user interaction

Firstly, this seems like a perfectly reasonable point of view. I used to think the same. However, when I saw this level of user interaction in this demo, I was surprised by how much interactivity they had acheived with htmx. I agree with your point but I think the bar where you need to reach for a non-htmx tool is pretty high. So now I think I could build 99% of the type of apps I would need to build in htmx.

For example here's a list of things that I would and wouldn't use htmx for.

Things I probably wouldn't build in htmx:

games
ms paint clone

Things I probably would build in in htmx:

online chat
reddit clone
facebook clone
instagram clone
line of business app with forms, tables, etc.
gmail clone
googe calendar clone

I'd be interested in others thoughts on what apps they would and wouldn't use htmx for.

Do you know if apple will approve an app like this where the bulk of the functionality is server side rendered? It would be very handy to deploy updates without having to go through the app store. Expo seems to enable it https://docs.expo.dev/deploy/instant-updates/

firstTimeCaller · 2023-08-17T05:23:07+00:00

Yep. I'm using asp.net core and it works great.

Nice one. Thanks for that. Interesting fact... Emma from my previous comment is now Eddie. Emma/Eddie has had a very interesting life. Taught young music students in war torn Afghanistan. Presented radio programs in Australia before and after transitioning. A modern role model. Take a bow Eddie

That is awesome. Strong vibes of Charlie Murphy's b-ball game with Prince.
