Using the Browser’s <canvas> for Data Compression

When building static websites and Single-Page Applications (SPAs), we sometimes need functionality in JavaScript front ends—such as compression—that is usually handled on the back end instead. […]

I feel that way too many people are praising global state (via signals or atomics) in frontend development, which I find to be rather misguided.

I mean, stuff like this makes sense for MVPs and one-off projects, but for customer-facing stuff: careful with it.

Aus aktuellem Anlass: Jobsuche

Sucht jemand im Raum Berlin/Potsdam gerade einen Softwareentwickler im Bereich:

-#Android/#Kotlin mit #JetpackCompose
-#Spring #Backend mit #Java oder Kotlin
-#Webfrontend mit #Typescript #VueJS

Zuletzt hatte ich vor allem im Bereich Medizinanwendungen (DIGA) zu tun und bin natürlich offen für andere Tech-Stacks

The lack of interest of modern React devs for basic HTML/CSS isn't just bad for users, it creates enormous maintenance burdens. Sometimes multiple intersecting hooks are needed to do what a few lines of CSS can accomplish far more robustly.

I wonder if anyone out there could help, I know there is #pixelfed however I'm wondering if it's possible to put a web client in front of mastodon that focuses on images you post, so a gallery or photo journalism frontend

I've seen some pretty web clients.. nothing like this

#mastodon #webfrontend #developer #photogallery

On #Mastodon #WebFrontend: When you upload a #screenshot with lots of #text that isn't available for copying & pasting into the #AltText / #ImageDescription, start the image description editor anyway, and click the "Detect text from picture" link.

Text is automatically recognized and added as image description. I found that it usually requires only minor edits.
