Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

      Nice! I don’t know what I’m doing with it but it looks really neat!

      I also recently built my first react app. Nothing to show and tell with but I built it earlier in the year to create a pocket money tracker since I couldn’t find something I liked. React frontend and Symfony backend since these were the technologies I was trying to get familiar with in order to contribute to another FOSS project.

        I started this as an itch because the calculator that I normally use got broken on a PHP upgrade and none of the other online calculators matched it’s usefulness.

        I also wanted to add batch tracking/note taking to it, it’s starting to get much larger than I planned :/

        I will admit that the firestone firebase studio has done lots of the heavy lifting.

        I’ll foss it at some stage

          Ah haha I see, I hadn’t heard of that tool before, do you learn much or is it basically all asking it to do it for you?

            It is taking a little debuging on some stuff, but it is many years since I played with JS. Every thing I do at work is around DAX and M

            I did start it in Gemini’s canvas but it kept shitting the bed every time I edited the code by hand or it got too complex. It was using firebase’s db as storage so I imported it into it’s studio and it is a very different beast

              Ah I haven’t used a tool like this, but it does seem like the kind of thing that would shit the bed when you go outside their happy path. Thanks for posting it, one day I might actually get around to brewing my own beer and then I might understand what it’s for 😅
