Other examples include:
- css/flex-fill-vertical.html: minimal setup for a editor: docs.ourbigbook.com/editor
That example calculates and displays the final widths via JavaScript, making it easier to understand the calculations being done.
The more of their syntax gets merged into mainline Cascading Style Sheets, the better the world will be.

../webpack/template contains a reasonable starter template.
This will produce, under
dist/ the following minimized files:dist/index.html: from ../webpack/template/index.html. You can open it to see:show on the browser. This was added from JavaScript.Hello webpackdist/index.js: from ../webpack/template/index.js and anything in its import tree, e.g.:- ../webpack/template/main.scss: sass source. It gets embedded the the JavaScript output as a string, and the JavaScript then applies it to the page, making the font blue

You can also run this test with the development server on localhost:9000:which uses unminimized outptus, and automatically push reloads the page whenever you change any of the input files!
npm startThis example shows how you could manually include the
dist/index.js that is output from webpack into your index.html.This is generally not what you want to do, because what you actually want to do is to use a Js output name with a hash in it, so that browsers only need to refetch when the name changes.
And to do that, we have to let webpack dynamically inject that unpredictable hash as done in webpack/template with:
new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
filename: 'index.html',
// Inject the include to our hashed filename,
// since it is not deterministic due to the hash.
inject: true,
template: path.resolve(__dirname, 'index.html'),
}),This shows how to produce a minimized fully embedded CSS file with webpack from a sass:That example produces a
cd webpack/sass
npm install
npm run build
xdg-open index.htmldist/main.css file which is a compresesd combination of:- webpack/sass/main.scss

Looks interesting.
It seems to abstract the part about the client messaging the backend, which focuses on being able to easily plug in a number of Front-end web framework to manage client state.
Uses Socket.IO, which allows the client Javascript to register callbacks when data is updated to achieve Socket.IO, e.g. their default chat app does:so that message appear immediately as they are sent.
client.service('messages').on('created', addMessage);Their standard template from But it is in itself a completely boring app with a single splash page, and no database interaction, so not a good showcase. The actual showcase app is feathersjs/feathers-chat.
feathers generate app on @feathersjs/cli@4.5.0 includes:which looks promising! They don't have a default template for a Front-end web framework however unfortunately: docs.feathersjs.com/guides/frameworks.html#the-feathers-chat lists a few chat app versions, which is their hello world:
- Front-end web framework: not built-in on generator, but there are some sample repos pointed from the documentation, and they did work out-of-box:
And there is no official example of the chat app that is immediately deployable to Heroku: FeathersJS Heroku deployment, all setups require thinking.
Lol it is note possible what a joke. Notably this makes it harder to have of a superior third party password manager like Proton Pass (though there seems to be an autocomplete app as an alternative path), and an ad blocker. Fuck Google.
Also, Chromium is not available on Google Play by default, you can install the apk, but you will miss updates:
Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.
