I tried Claude Code - the new CLI tool for agentic coding - announced by Anthropic this morning www.anthropic.com/news/claude-... Claude has been my favorite AI coding partner so far. I use it via GitHub Copilot and as standalone through its web interface. I was curious to see how it works in CLI.

Found a fun game in HN - Bracket City bracket.city - like a crossword puzzle but with clues in brackets. It feels like going on a treasure hunt, you solve one clue and the next one reveals itself.πŸ”₯ And the final clue is extra special because it relates to the day the puzzle was published.

Creating a portfolio site can be daunting, esp for students and early-career pros. Many have a LinkedIn resume but find it hard to publish a site. We built Generate Portfolio ❇️ to convert LinkedIn resume into custom portfolio website in under 5 minutes. Demo videoπŸ”₯: www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9Ks...

The world' shortest hackathon starts now! Excited to hack! Here with @georgeck.me πŸ”₯ @vercel.com #nvidia #hackathon

DHH is joining the board of Shopify! Fantastic discussion between Tobi & DHH - great flow, no filler words. Love their passion talking about the company, business, marketplace incentives, Ruby on Rails πŸ”₯ & mechanical keyboards 😲! It was fun watching them have fun. www.shopify.com/news/david-h...

πŸ”₯ My site annjose.com has run on #Hugo since 2015 (annjose.com/post/first-p...). It's been fantastic! Two days with #Astro showed me its flexibility & power for content-heavy sites. Now I'm convinced: it's time to port my site to Astro.πŸ’ͺ It's a new adventure. I am beyond excited! πŸš€ #WebDev #blog

Just built my first #Astro blog πŸ”₯ using docs.astro.build/en/tutorial/ by @astro.build Output ❇️ astro-ann.netlify.app/tags/ Not pretty, but fully functional with: β€’ Markdown rendering β€’ Layouts, Island β€’ Dynamic routes β€’ RSS feed β€’ Dark mode β€’ TypeScript Source: github.com/annjose/lear... #WebDev

TILπŸ”₯ Astro doesn't allow declarations inside embedded markup. You can embed JS/TS expressions in the markup using curly bracesΒ { }, but not declarations or complex statements. You need to move them to the code fences. ❇️ See example below: Left code fails ❌, right code works βœ…: #Astro #WebDev #TIL

A simple blog site showcasing the power of SQLite + Turso hosting the content + statically generated using Next.js + deployed on Cloudflare Pages ❇️. sqlite-blog-app.pages.dev TILπŸ”₯ - #sqlite works beautiful in prod - loving it every day ❀️. #turso makes it easy to deploy on the cloud πŸ’ͺ. #web-dev #TIL

The pure joy of a chronological feed ❀️ πŸ¦‹. No more: β€’ 'For You' β€’ 'You may also like' β€’ 'Personalized for you' β€’ seeing trigger-inducing posts from someone Feels so good to see things as they happen. Just posts, in order. Logical. Simple and sweet. Thank you #Bluesky team for this! πŸ¦‹πŸ’š

TIL πŸ”₯ Implementing full-text search on a website is incredibly simple with SQLite! I thought it required some fancy search algorithm, creating search indexes and complex code to highlight and show snippets. Turns out, it's none of that. SQLite handles it all! ❇️ #WebDev #SQLite #FullTextSearch #TIL
