Hi HN,I've been working on AppMaker, a tool for building with AI business apps like CRMs, dashboards, and internal tools. It is NOT a low-code.https://appmaker.ioApps come with a database, authentication, and backend logic, and can be exported as standalone Node.js applications.It's still in beta, and I'd love to hear your feedback.
I’ve been working on AppMaker, a small experiment in visual app development.It has a visual UI builder, JavaScript on both the client and server, a built-in database, and lets you download the generated Node.js app.It’s still early, and I’m especially curious about one thing: In the age of AI coding tools, is there still a place for this kind of structured visual development...

I’ve spent 20+ years in tech, with 15 of those in software leadership. Recently I decided to look for a new opportunity, and as part of that I’ve been sharing some of my lessons and reflections on LinkedIn (where I have ~7800 followers) and a small about me website.I’d love a kind of “virtual 360” from this community: based on how I show up, do I sound like the kind of leader you’d want to work...
I had different blogs (on blogspot, on their own domain, in markdown, etc.).Now my blogging platform in LinkedIn where I put some sort of marchitecture articles:https://www.linkedin.com/in/mveteanu/recent-activity/all/What's your opinion on this?
Recently, I managed to recover some of my earliest work from the ZX Spectrum era from an old audio cassette.It is a mini-game, that I created as a teen, called "Atomix," written in BASIC with a mix of Z80 assembly — some of which I coded myself, while other parts were disassembled from existing games. I put the game in an modern emulator and recorded a screencast. See the video in my linkedin...
Hi coding enthusiasts,I run a small JavaScript coding site for code newbies: codeguppy.comWhat I've noticed is that most beginners have a hard time to properly open and close the { ... } for functions, code blocks, etc.I was playing with the idea of introducing a simpler "javascript" to codeguppy.com -- where basically the symbols { } are replaced with begin ... end.A simple pre-processor will...

When I found out that there are coding clubs in US public elementary schools that accept only girls, I thought to ask reddit about this. In my opinion children of both genders should be allowed equal access to (coding) education – especially within a publicly funded educational system.To my surprise I got a lot of comments on my reddit question defending the school position.What’s your opinion...
As of now, the course has 693 slides and covers also more advanced concepts such as closures and classes.
The intended audience for the course are teachers ... but independent learners (especially those interested in p5.js) may find the course useful as well.
As I mentioned, I'm also impressed by the old Usborne books, therefore I also tried recently to create an illustrated JavaScript course in that style ... See here the first 30%:
I started working on a new illustrated coding course/curriculum for JavaScript (slide deck style).
I’m about 30% into the project ... and would like your feedback.

Hello all,I need your advice in selecting the software stack for an educational, boot-to-code computer. The computer will be an AIO with a keyboard, screen and a Linux board with just-enough CPU to run the coding environment.The intent is that eventually in the future to turn the computer in a commercial product that will come bundled with a coding book that will teach coding to young audiences...
