Now this is what I like to see!
Had a little issue with docker images and containers taking up way too much space (even though snapshots only took like 50gb). Pruned some stuff and storage is being free

Decided to give leaflet a try! Think of this publication kind of like a devlog. I'll later look into incorporating these posts in my website, but that will be way down the road

How did I find myself building a job application platform instead of looking for and applying for jobs? Is this what they call yak shaving?
Will have more info on this soon, since it will be open source and mostly free to use 👍

Well, looks like I'm on hunt for a place to work...
So here's the spiel:
if you need a developer that can do frontend, backend, PHP, JS, Go (kind of), Rust (kind of), Python and can work on its own (remote), hit me up!
You can check what I do/write in my website (link in bio)

just tagged v1.0.0 of rehype-photoswipe early this morning!
It's now fully converted to typescript, esm only and built on tsdown :)
You can find the repo here: https://github.com/matfire/rehype-photoswipe
And it's also what I use on my website for blog/project images 😉

What if, instead of focusing on writing a new blog post, I remade my website once again ? And, on top of that, I built my own "framework" ? It would be stupid right ? Unless...
I mean I've been trying to find a reason to dive into making Vite plugins & testing nitro v3...
But it would be stupid...

An unholy (or most holy) union has been performed! I am using resend’s React-email inside a @nuxt.com 4 project, along with the preview server and full type safety up to the api route 🎉
Article coming soon, but I’ll need to polish the implementation a bit

Happy to report this worked like a charm! Still not a fan of monkey-patching stuff haphazardly, but when there’s no other way it’s not that hard
Never thought I’d see the day where I would seriously consider monkey-patching a function, but here we are I guess…

I’ve been trying out deployer for a laravel app I’m building and it’s pretty nice! It took a bit to setup (me being on a moving train in the middle of France might not have helped), but once it’s done it’s a really nice flow
