I write about web, JavaScript, React and technical how-to-s.


I am the developer of https://mindsaha.com/ that aims at combining mind maps, notes, bookmark saving and a simple task management as well. I currently do not support screenshots, drawings though.

If this is something you are curious about, do let me know, I'll be happy to provide you an early access to try it out.


Oooh this sounds right up my alley. I’ve started developing some tools like this but didn’t quite get as far as I wanted


that would be `JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("gameState")).solution` ;)


I have a web UI that does the exact same thing. https://veerasundar.com/wordle - you input Wordle results and it suggest words. It sourced the list of words from the Wordle itself.


I made something very similar. https://cjboco.github.io/wordfinder/ - except mine you use normal keyboard to create your word and the on screen keyboard to exclude the characters. Think I prefer your way.

I use it every time I'm using SVG for the web.

My only problem is that when pasting SVG directly from Illustrator it finds an invalid character at the end and refuses to use it. I have to paste the SVG into an editor, remove some invisible character at the end, and then paste to svgomg.

I reported this and offered to PR but never got an answer: https://github.com/jakearchibald/svgomg/issues/145


My protocol for dealing with no-PR's has been (especially in this case where you can just host the tool on github.io)

1. Just fork it and use your own version until the PR is accepted

2. Directly email the maintainer if you think your PR is worthwhile

3. If you have a bunch of PR's that are pretty useful to others, consider making it a real distributable (and not just a personal) fork if the maintainer still doesn't respond


Is it legal to have a NUL byte in an SVG? Might want to also contact Illustrator as well if it's not.


I doubt it, but I also doubt Adobe would pay attention...


It might be disallowed by XML already.


Why ask, just write the PR and see if they'll take it.


I've done that in the past and some PRs are still there collecting dust.


Their loss. On the flip side, if anyone ever comes back or takes over the project, they'll have PR's ready to go.


Hardly a day goes by that I don't use svgomg. If you need a one-off SVG minified, this is the tool for you.


I used this tool just the other day; very comprehensive, and very fantastic.


Sure.. will add the command log


Mine made with HTML + CSS. I made it sure that the whole page fits in a A4 Size so that I can easily export it as a PDF to be shared with recruiters. I also make sure to send the URL of my resume (https://veerasundar.com/resume/) along with the PDF. (bit outdated, though! :)


And it is also difficult to get started with a new project. You need to setup multitude of tools just to see a production worthy `Hello World` app.


I'm designing an introduction to programming class right now and I plan to just teach basic ECMAScript5 in a Node library, while keeping all the webdev stuff like HTTP, HTML, CSS, etc. hidden totally from the student. If things were different, I would love to incorporate pragmatic UI development in a beginner-friendly way, to expose people to the positive feedback loop that comes with iterating on highly visual code, but there just doesn't seem to be a way to do that in 2018.


Surprised that there's not a single mention of Accessibility as part of Front end developer road map.


and the one that has potential to take an Indian to the moon.


With capacity of 10 tons to LEO, 4 tons to GTO, it's somewhere between the Titan II (used for Gemini) and Titan III.

Would have to be a pretty lean moon mission.


Only for a direct ascent architecture. There are lots of Earth orbit assembly missions that would be possible and not terribly expensive to pull off (at least for a lunar flyby style mission).


Wouldn't be a manned mission, but that's plenty enough for a small rover mission.
