Hey Im Jack! Im the creator of boilermate.site I just wanted to add some context to the creation of this app! I have always loved the use of boilerplates when it comes to programming, it saves all that headache of the setup and gets you right into action, but there wasn't really a nice place to find boilerplates that are cool and trending! boilermate.site was created with Sveltekit and mongoDB using mongoose. This was the first time using mongoose and i wasn't too keen on it. I wrote all of the auth and logic myself for this and i will be honest the code is bloody awful.. as i really underestimated the amount of work needed to get this up... (guest authentication...). I think i will stick to using lucia-auth and postgres... Any questions or something which is god awful let me know! Thanks, Jack Sansom
- codencoffee 2y agolove the idea. reminds me of gitignore.io. Two remarks. I'd choose a different emoji for downvotes and second, how do I add a logo when entering a new tag/tech?
- sansjack 2y agohey thanks for the feedback, currently you cant its just if its in the dev icon list im checking! But you can add a custom tag by just typing it!
- karmakaze 2y agoNice site. I think this will come in handy. Here's some notes. - title length limit seems too short - 5 tags seems too limiting--when looking for a specific combination of tags better to list everything - clicking on a tag takes you directly to the link unexpectedly (even if it's the only one) - being able to search for multiple (AND) tags is the killer feature
