Bootstrap is still here. Tailwind CSS just gives more freedom, and no elements out of the box - you have to do it yourself. Both are great tools to build a landing page or a website fast.

Did any Linux distro showed any interest to implement Passkeys? Ubuntu and Fedora are probably most likely to do something about it first. Ubuntu already has encryption that uses TPM chip.

Probably a stupid question, but does Kindle have any "native" app support? I'm surprised the it even has a browser. I wonder what are the limitations?

Now that's a great way to make sure that your game will keep working in the future. Some interested devs will be required to port it to future platforms, but, hey, those devs just keep appearing somehow, look at Wipeout rewrite.

Will be interesting to see results, as HTML did not evolve too much during last year, or last 5 years even. Also, what are JS APIs doing in this survey?

Sorry, but Electron wrapped application should not be considered a "web app". It's a web app and a browser in a bundle. Web apps, added to desktop or homescreen is in whole different league, as they do not require additional

Remember the time when each game company had their own engine? And that led to many technological marvels, like RollerCoaster Tycoon by Chris Sawyer, to name one. Now innovation in game engines seems to be stalled, as big ones are just look

Had to double check if they are protecting IP (Internet Protocol address ) or IP (Intellectual property) by adding some sort of filtering for copyrighted content right in the browser. In any case - nothing useful.

You can download map tiles or build them yourself at required zoom level. But what might be even more interesting, especially for historical project, to use an era appropriate map.

Yes, but this app had too many permissions. I might give it a try again, as I'm getting really desperate.

Maybe "Last-Modified" header combined with "ETag" would be good enough alternative?

Why there are no simple, offline, tasks/TODO applications for Android, without ads, and with support for reminders? Went through dozen of them and either they are very old, from Android 2 era), or packed to the brim with useless (for m

Just trying to align curves to targets was fun. Someone should build a whole game on this idea.

I was able to remove overlay, but scrolling does not work. Not that I really need to browse Facebook or something, but local public services are using facebook to post news.

You are a really patient person. There was a tiny interval of time when Edge had some promise, right after it switched to Chromium engine. But it quickly went sideways, probably when management seen rising usage numbers. Web browser should

Tried Double Commander several times, GTK and QT versions, and while it is almost exact copy of TC, it seemed somehow "off", and I never could use it properly.

Best software program. Period. Used from good old days when it was called "Windows Commander", and, admittedly, first versions were used in unregistered mode. While I have a license now and am legal user of software, unfortunately

Funny, when Firefox still does not have "add to desktop" support, while all major (and some minor, like GNOME Web) browsers are shipping it for quite a while now. And there won't be a better solution to run web applications s

Instead of trying to build fanciest loading animation, maybe we should use "Network client hints" and send less data to slow networks? Figuring out how to use browser cache correctly and serving data from edge closest to client ar

Successfully updated my 10+ year old Android app to latest SDK. Of course, there are still loads of errors about deprecated function, but it seems to be working, as it is pretty simple application.
