No app is perfect for everyone. What's ideal for one is useless for another.
(e.g. to-do apps or note-taking apps.)
"Best" is subjective and personal. Your favorite might be my nightmare.
What matters is finding the right fit.
That's why there’s room for 200 competitors.

Pick one and own it

Got a question about updating technical content on YT.
We all know that technical content must be updated occasionally.
I can update it on the blog. But if I make a video and publish it on YT, I'd need to update it as well.
And ofc an old video should stay because it has been linked/bookmarked.

Plan for the rest of the holiday season is to ship at least 10 tutorials.
Let's see how it goes.
1 of 10 is done, second draft is half ready.

First you learn about something on higher level.
It works for a while. Then you read docs in-depth and O.M.G. there is a lot to learn.
I had more time recently to go over docker compose specs. There's a lot of useful stuff! So much parameters that could make life easier.
Back to learning.

While everyone is tolerating their relatives, I am updating the old content on the @appliku.com blog.
It is such a burden, because tools get updated, deprecated, they change.
Also, my approach also changes and revisiting the old content often ends up in full rewrite.
But that's fun and useful.

In the last couple of weeks, shipped static sites support to @appliku.com, made a lot of improvements to cron jobs management.
Now i will take some time to write guides for deploying static sites and work on the new documentation site.
+One content project i will announce soon

Reading more about YML configuration files for different providers now. It is insane how much complexity there is. Not that their files are bad, but the topic is complicated.
Services, addons, per branch configurations, precedence of YML file over dashboard configuration.
Can of worms. OMG

Holiday chill time. That means, it is time for figuring out some new feature, that I can think through, plan carefully and try to implement without rushing it.
Figured I will finally work on Appliku's YML file.
Quite a lot of stuff to learn. YML schema, validation,etc.
