i wrote a tiny hugo shortcode template for embedding videos published with hyper8. the embeds worked offline in hugo's server, but were broken on the live site, as they weren't allowed in that server's content security policy. i added the domain to the allowed `iframe` sources, but still saw the same error. then i remembered that the *subdomain* is required. i updated the CSP again, and the blog post now showed the minimal video player.

#Static #Video #Hyper8

https://thewhale.cc/posts/hyper-8

A static site generator for video publishing.

Possibly of technical interest to those using both #Faircamp and #Hyper8 by @freebliss

For my new EP I published the videos on Hyper 8, and the music on Faircamp. I was able to embed the individual videos on the track pages in Faircamp just by pasting in the code to the "-- more" section, and it works beautifully - see for example:

https://music.key13.uk/sun-moon-stars/2/#more

I know Simon has closed the Faircamp wishlist for now, but I'd love it if the Faircamp embeds were as pretty as the Hyper 8 ones :)

Hyper 8 Video System 1.0.1 is now officially out on all release channels! ⸜(˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝

In the wake of 1.0, this release brings significant fixes all around, as well as some minor improvements and maintenance work, all of which is listed in detail here: https://simonrepp.com/hyper8/changes/1.0.1/

This is also the first release that's packaged for older, long-term-supported .deb based systems (such as Debian 11)!

Thank you so much to all contributors, they are: @BjornW, Michael Fritzsch, @arnauld, @namatoj, @Lioh, @dried, as well as Legend-Master (and the wider Tauri support team). <3

And in case you are new to Hyper 8 – it's a static site generator for building and publishing video sites, from single videos to large archives. No database, no programming, no maintenance is required, and the resulting sites are compatible with virtually every webhost on this planet. You can check it out at https://simonrepp.com/hyper8/

Time to introduce my last new project for this year:

«Zeroform» ... is a tool for generating minimalistic, self-hostable forms, with a twist: It can generate both static (html/css/js) and/or dynamic (php augmented) online forms.

My main motivation for zeroform is to create tooling that helps me gather more precise feedback while designing and developing (especially) #faircamp and #hyper8, and to do this in a way that reflects the values of those projects: Independence, simplicity, minimalism, freedom from maintenance, absence of tracking, etc.

Basically you start with a thought, put it down as a plaintext blueprint of the form/questionnaire/doodle/survey you have in mind, zeroform turns it into finished code and design, you can upload it, use it as long as its useful/needed, and then you can just delete it.

Think of it as your own google forms, without bigtech, without dependence on any infrastructure besides the cheapest of hosting plans, commissioned and decommisioned in a mere minute.

I'm now one week into the project, since today I'm developing in the open at https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/zeroform, and I will put it to use in the next days already! I have roughly one more week reserved until the end of the year for making this usable for the general public - I'll announce when it's ready. ʕ◜0ᴥ0ʔ
