I finished another #webdev side project and built the QR code generator of my dreams: :fietkau_software: https://fietkau.software/qr

* It's instant, purely client-side, and has no ads or upsells.
* It has a variety of color, shape, and logo embedding options.
* There's PNG and SVG export.

The included logo selection is, let's say, "opinionated" and features lots of familiar faces if you enjoy federated social platforms. 😄

Here are a few example QR codes that all lead back to my Mastodon profile.

QR code with the colorful pentagram-ish Fediverse logo in the middle. The code itself consists of green shapes and red dots, the corner elements are blue and brown. All corners are rounded. A QR code with the asterism fediverse symbol on a purple gradient circle in the middle. The data blocks are colored in a purple-yellow radial gradient, looking warm and vaguely sunset-like. The data blocks consist of individual mosaic-like tiles instead of contiguous shapes.
A QR code with the Mastodon logo in the middle. The QR code itself has the same blue-purple gradient as the Mastodon logo. The inner parts of the code consist of individual dots instead of contiguous shapes.


As a #developer sometimes you'll see #code comments like this. Often, you'll be the one writing it. #webdev #memes #programming

My former employer, @OCCRP, just went live with their new website, and it's pretty slick!
https://www.occrp.org/en

This is bitter-sweet for me.

On one hand, glad to see them have a new site, finally! The old was a mess.

OTOH: I had designed and built the infra that hosted their site through Panama Papers (arguably OCCRP's big break). It did not rely on external CDNs or "DDoS-protection" providers.

That infra is no longer in use as of today. Replaced by Google. 🥲

I'm going to throw this out there:

I'm looking for a #webdev internship for 6mos to complete my bachelor's here in France - this can be remote, I mainly hope for kindness.

I've worked with #php #Laravel #WordPress #angular #sql & more - I'm very open 😀


Dear devs,

It's NEVER ok to lock people out of a webapp because their User-Agent doesn't match your predefined list. 😡

Especially webapps they need to manage their healthcare.

(I am in fact using one of the browsers on this list, your code just isn't able to tell.)

:boost_love: Please boost for basic education.

I've been trying off and on for several months now to figure out how to find/hire #freelancers in these categories (#videoEditor experienced with simple #vlogs, #webdev experienced with #wordpress and #ecommerce, #socialMediaManager, and #talentManager or w/e they're called), but the most I can figure out how to do is just post to those generic online "job boards," which has only ever gotten me flooded with barely-readable copypasta with no proof of past work.


I also would love to hire (in order of need)
- a #webdev to install an e-commerce site that allows people to purchase tokens to then exchange for digital files (lots of red tape thanks to #ThePatriarchy , I can explain later)
- the same or another web dev to change the existing #wordpress theme on my website toplesstopics.org with something cleaner and more video-focused


I wrote an article on #css layers. It's as condensed as possible as all the other guides I saw were over 6000 words. I have #ADHD, that's not gonna work.

So, less than 800 words on this new "feature". What, how and why.

I couldn't find any implementation info on Twitter's API "cursoring" pagination system. I'd like to replicate it for #Friendica 's #API since we emulate their API, but so far I only have the "next_cursor" feature, no idea how to compute the "previous_cursor" value.

I'm looking for either a high-level explanation of this system that doesn't seem to rely on the usual "max_id"/'since_id" boundaries, or an actual implementation of it.

Thanks!
