I totally agree with the need to be cautious - however, if there's one thing that Big Tech has taught me, it's that there will be 20 other people in the room that will remind you of exactly what you are suggesting. There's plenty of pessimism to go around, not enough optimism.

I recently wrote about something I call "Toddler Mindset"—a way of approaching decisions by asking what’s possible instead of what’s allowed.

It’s a mental shift I'm forcing myself to learn after watching my daughter have zero regard for rules that we as adults invent for ourselves.

It's utility extends beyond just engineering systems and is even more applicable in how I'm trying to think about life in general.

I'm new to expressing my non-programming related thoughts on the internet so....be kind

I think this tweet really explains how he was able to raise a ridiculous amount of capital so easily - https://twitter.com/vinaygaba/status/1591822398894247946

Very cool. I feel like this is the early version of a "programmable Notion[1]" in some ways which is built on similar building blocks that are customizable.

For anyone interested in this space and wishes something like this existed for Android, I got you covered! I open sourced this project last year - https://github.com/airbnb/Showkase

I have a really similar motivation behind a project that aims to teach Jetpack Compose in the same fashion and funny enough, the name is also pretty similar to the title of this thread - Learn Jetpack Compose By Example. You can find it here - https://github.com/vinaygaba/Learn-Jetpack-Compose-By-Exampl...

There's a ton of comments in every example (even though they might be redundant across the examples) and the idea is that you should be able to learn this new framework by merely reading through the examples.

I built an open source library for Android called Showkase [1]. Showkase autogenerates a UI component browser for your Jetpack Compose components on Android and allows you to search, visualize and organize your UI elements. Think Storybook but for Android development.

I think a lot of people assume that Jamstack sites need to be static sites through and through. I don't think this is realistic and you will be overcomplicating things for yourself if you try to do this. For things that don't change often, having a static site has obvious benefits and Jamstack is well suited to build those parts of your site. For user generated content, you are better off just storing it somewhere else and loading it dynamically.

It would be interesting to have a dynamic page for the most recent blog post which 'compiles' to a static web page subsequently. So comments are live for a while, but then become static content after the post goes off the front page.

Whole classes of spam prevented...

Who assumes this? This seems to be the JavaScript-bootcamp-I’m-a-coder-now crowd who don’t really understand their tools

For the (perhaps small) set of users who keep javascript disabled in their browser, I think it's fair to say that a Jamstack site gives them a thoroughly static experience.

I have been asked a lot of problems whose solution was a variation of Breadth First Search.
