Some work on FosseryWeb page-builders:
I did some rewrite of the tool, separate out HTML templates from the generation logic, and use Jinja to fill in the templates during generation (this introduces an additional dependency, which some might consider bloat, but since I'll probably be the only one using it, it doesn't matter that much I guess, I rather focus on cleaner code, long-term maintainability). I also created a separate function to handle the Markdown validation logic, and call it before prompting for the description, to give immediate feedback, and rewrote the error messages to be clearer, more organized.

Some FosseryWeb updates:
In the announcement post of last week's major update I asked whether the original site should have rounded, slighly rounded, or edged corners, all three options received one vote, so I decided to go with the middleground, the slightly rounded corners. I also updated the Timeline page to include last week's major update and the design change, fixed metadata on the Min site's cheatsheet pages (where the title said FosseryWeb instead of FosseryWeb Min), updated the "tools I use" section on About page.
https://fosseryweb.codeberg.page/
https://fosseryweb-min.codeberg.page/
(The site is a bit slow at the moment, seems like Codeberg servers have some performance issues, probably a bit much load due to a bunch of FOSS projects leaving GitHub, the majority of them going to Codeberg. Luckily you can run the site(s) offline too, see instructions in README: https://codeberg.org/fosseryweb/pages)

Minor update to my Joplin config:
Joplin recently got an update where F11 got mapped to toggling fullscreen by default, which conflicted with my setting of toggling the note list, so I decided to modify toggling sidebar (notebook list) to F2 and toggling note list to F3, to ensure the two keys are next to each other, and don't conflict with any default setting.

As I already mentioned, I'll stop making big updates for FosseryWeb (Min), only upload my articles there, because I don't have much free time, and the codebase is hard to maintain because of repetitive code:

https://social.linux.pizza/@fosserytech/116562970499062624

In addition, this way, I'll have a bit more time to focus on what's Fossery Tech is originally about: promoting FOSS

But here's one last large update.

1. New content/features
1. Java cheatsheets
2. RSS feed for articles
3. Easy switch between original and Min site
4. Projects page
2. Other changes
1. New Privacy Policy
2. Better offline support, instructions to run the code offline
3. Beta branch discontinued
4. Bug fixes and other improvements
3. My stance on age attestation/verification (spoiler: nope!)
4. Design vote: rounded or edged corners?

Read the full announcement on Odysee: https://odysee.com/@fossery-tech:4/fosseryweb-java-cheatsheets-rss-feed:d

Regarding the design vote, whether the original FosseryWeb should have rounded, edged, or slightly rounded corners, you can also vote here

The last changes for the next (last) big update are pushed to the beta branch: Download buttons renamed to Export (to better reflect the functionality when the site is run locally), Articles became the first entry on the home page (since that will be the only section which will receive new content after the update), "Export all" options available for Java cheatsheets, Privacy Policy added, some "Related content" links are fixed.

The update will probably be merged into the main branch on Tuesday, after some testing.

You may have noticed that FosseryWeb development became extremely slow in the past few months, and you have to wait ages until I add the features, content you requested. Well, I feel like the codebase overgrew me, the site becomes harder and harder to maintain, as it becomes bigger and bigger. Producing cheatsheets and articles makes it grow pretty rapidly. Producing much of these content isn't really viable in the long run for a static site like FosseryWeb (Min), because if I want to change the code structure, I have to go over each page's HTML file one-by-one (although I could use client-side JS to eliminate some of the duplicate code, but it still wouldn't fully solve the issue because I can't store the full HTML code in JS, and it would also ruin the experience for many of you, who block JS in your browser). The ideal solution would be a dynamic web app, which I already experimented with earlier (see my Java/Spring endeavor: https://social.linux.pizza/@fosserytech/114422738214988335), but it's literally impossible to find a FOSS hosting service with a reasonable Privacy Policy for dynamic sites (unfortunately Codeberg Pages is only for static sites), and I don't have my own server to host a site.

I also promised to release a contribution guide, to make the project a collaborative effort, to speed up development a bit, allow anyone to write articles, produce cheatsheets. I'm already half done with the guide, including most of the rules to follow, but in the past weeks, I thought about it a lot, whether I'll be able to keep up with reviewing all the cheatsheet, article submissions, and the more I think about it, the more I realize that I want a bit too much. I barely have enough free time. I only have about 1-2 hours a day to do anything outside my university studies on weekdays, so I might not have enough time to review all submissions, pull requests, especially if the site becomes more popular in the future (which may never be the case, but who knows)

(Unfortunately it doesn't work without JavaScript though, similar to all the other privacy-respecting options I looked at, but if you know any other service which works without JS, let me know, I'll take a look at it)
I also migrated the sites from the old Codeberg Pages server to the new git-pages. The domains didn't change, you should still be able to access the sites as usual. In fact, they seems to load much faster now. But let me know if you have any issues accessing them.
