Just finished reading Apprenticeship Patterns, on Cenny Davidsson's recommendation. I'm definitely going to re-read this a couple years down the road. Looking forward to reading The Art of Unit Testing by Roy Osherove next!

Working on Java GUI applications, Windows GUI applications, and somebody's custom JS frontend stuff, I've been able to avoid learning CSS ... but now that I'm trying to write my applications, it looks like it's time to learn it, so I'm biting the bullet. Can't make everything straight text forever.😂

Was looking for an embeddable HTTP static file server for React Native. Was surprised to find one that works not only for Old and New Architectures, but for react-native-windows, too! Let's goooo github.com/birdofpreyru...

Hey, #ProgramingSky, what's some challenges you're facing as a developer?

Finally found out the Supabase docs were misleading me and I need a separate RLS delete policy in order to make delete work. I thought this part meant the RLS select policy was applied for deleting.

I've been exploring Supabase for a couple days, and here's some things I'm pretty excited about:

I run `npm install --global` and my computer immediately detonates. the mushroom cloud is visible for hundreds of miles, and the surrounding area becomes uninhabitable for centuries.

Finally got Supabase running for local development! I had to make sure to use the latest version of Docker Desktop, not the older one that had been linked from a blog post about Docker Desktop working with Windows Home.

Any #Docker folks here? 🐳

Some people label things they don't understand as being too complex. When you ask them what they are doing instead, their answers are often as complex, with one major difference. They understand it.

Getting the hang of Supabase and I just found out how to install it locally and use the CLI for local development.

Continuing Supabase frustrations: sometimes when I create a table in the Table Editor, it's just not there in the SQL Editor. I create a table, then go to run SQL to create policies on that table, and it says I'm referencing fields that don't exist.

Never used Resend before, but it looks like a great service. Trying to get it to work, but unfortunately verification for my domain failed. Double checking everything and trying again...🤞

Okay, I can fetch and display data on Supabase, but updating seems to be eluding me. Gonna walk through a longer intro on Supabase+React that seems to update data and figure out what I'm missing. (I suspect it's auth, but I thought I'd do that later...)

Stick to boring architecture for as long as possible, and spend the majority of your time, and resources, building something your customers are willing to pay for.

Tease out the fundamentals and find a stable solution. If you can't do that then the shiny new thing might be justified.

in case you missed it, the first react compiler beta dropped among other things is official support for React 17+ so you can try it even with an old React (and yes, version 17 is four years old, which is about seventy five in the javascript years)

Trying to create a basic PostgreSQL app with Supabase this morning, but I can't seem to get Supabase's basic React example to work.
