We've using iframe to extend legacy apps for at least 10 years. And I don't think this approach that needs rewrite the of the base router really brings a benefit. Very often is really problematic to change the base router.

Awesome! Maybe some company like that could offer their driver for free to blender community, as a marketing strategy. I believe that even have some space to a sector giant (like autodesk) acquire this type of company.

Noob question: There's a way to write a OpenGL drive that uses Metal underneath?

A lot of business have your niche or micro localization. It don't become a unicorn, but can make money sufficiently to be a life style business. As some saas are like grocery store.

Maybe the author is talking about this type of "local/nich tech business"... No?

A comment off topic of a fashion that police have found in my country, they have discovered gangs are mining bitcoin with theft of electric power. Almost a real gold mine

I have a CNC Laser and do stuff for friends and schools in the area I live. Nothing like a real business, but help to free my mind from my daily work, and I make ~USD 300 per month.

We don't use redux. We are happy using js-data with a rest backend right now. We going to try graph-ql soon.

Is there any starter kit using rest without redux out there?

Actually I’m using react with js-data for a rest backend. I have made some simple forms and list components that abstract a lot of communication with the server.

I thought the same. But, as I started to work with react in a side project, now I really enjoy it. In the beginning is a really mess. But, as you begin to think in a "data stream oriented way" (like you do in Haskell with lists), your templates look like any regular framework. It stay isolated in a function with no more than value substitutions. You even can separate in a different file. The only really JS code I have mixed with html has "if" and "map/for" statements. This is, yet, the uglier part for me (at least, now). BTW: I don't use redux (and I never will!).

I love ExtJS, and still use the version 5. This post is very true for me too. I didn't upgrade to version 6 because the new license system and the last versions is still very unstable in my tests.

But I will really miss the JSON-way of creating interface. With Xtypes everything is defined as a json object. And is incredible the customization options of their components. Other thing that I will miss a lot is how well integrated is the presentation components with their data layer.

I think is not that popular yet. Look at this issue for the sublime elixir plugin [1], it's breaks a lot of things and seems stalled for a long time...

Another point: Facebook is increasily adding features so people don't need to leave to read or anything else.

How ad networks will adapt to that? In a short or mid-term future aren't just the famous and niche content blog that will survive?

Just thoughts...

The first time I saw this things I thought: well, Java programmers are coming to web development ...

There're too many over engineering that call itself "simple" .

Piwik is an awesome tool. But today I'm only using their JS Tracker to send requests to a pool of nginx servers. The event logs are parsed with Fluentd and saved in a mongodb instance. After that, a proccess do some aggregations and put in my postgresql (app db).

We have this setup because we run our custom and specific analytics for a lot of clients.

Do anyone have a similar setup and have some experiences or hints to share?

how disappointing... everything is working fine, even stuff installed by macports.. the only thing that doesn't works is the port command itself

Anyone having trouble with macports or homebrew?

Perfect. Get things done fast. Prove your product. If it succeed, you will have time to tune every aspect and invent your own wheel that fit your needs. But until that, RAM is a lot cheaper than your own time writing from scratch your version of things that are very stable and largely used.

But, the advice is really important for gem writters. As a gem author, I think you really need think a little more about our dependencies as you do with our public interface.

I'm trying to find the reason. Anyone can point me where I can find?

I cannot agree more with you. For me, Rails is a way to get things done fast. If you can follow all rails goodies, there aren't any other framework comparable. The way things just works is the main point for me.

But of course it doesn't fit everyone needs.

Do you mind share your script? It seems very useful.
