For context, I work on Terminus which is an open source web stack built atop Hanami and htmx.
Currently, I’m working on opening up full import support for community recipes that allows folks to render a lot more information on their ePaper devices. Many (and more) of my open source gems (mentioned here) are part of this stack as well. ![]()
Hope to have these features rolled out this week (or next week at the latest).
I’m trying to wrap up a project of making the whole Dry RB ecosystem officially compatible with JRuby. We have just one gem left (Dry Monads) and only incompatibilities happen in the extensions, but in true Pareto spirit, this seems like a very hard last mile.
@bkuhlmann Terminus looks pretty cool! TIL about TRMNL devices too..
@katafrakt Good luck with that 20% left! It’s awesome that Dry RB will be fully compatible with JRuby soon.
On my end I finished a ruby upgrade from 3.3.6 to 4.0.2 and I’m working on a post about PAAS vs self-hosted comparative for solo developers.
Generally working on Brut, but specifically working on it in the context of a simple reminder app to replace iOS’s abysmal medication reminders system.
The app is almost entirely SMS-based - you sign up with a phone number, once it confirms, you use a web UI to create daily reminders. The app then texts you those reminders. You can snooze them, skip them, or mark them completed. If you don’t respond, you can auto-re-reminded a certain number of times.
Unlike Apple’s med reminder, this app: 1) is fast, 2) has a UI that is hard to screw up, 3) is used by someone who actually requires daily medications lol, 4) does not make you sit through animations.
It’s still not ready for others to use, but if this sounds interesting let me know ![]()
(It can be used for non-medication things, too, of course!)
