@joelmoss This is something I’ve wanted for years now. I thought about creating an NPM service that proxied to RubyGems to pull assets from packaged gems but it went the way of many random ideas and we just package both now.

How are you doing it?

[Adam Cooke @adamcooke]

Why on earth would we need that?

[Adam Cooke @adamcooke]

I just downloaded the disk image to boot the installer. Could updates not be included in the latest image provided by Microsoft? #windows

[Adam Cooke @adamcooke]

I guess I now need to find people to follow there!

I don’t really do much on X these days so you’ll find me on BlueSky…

Brilliant work by the @krystal_labs team to get this huge project shipped.

Parts of this design started their life over 2 years ago and it’s great to see everything now live.

@deanpcmad Here’s a few screenshots though…

[Adam Cooke @adamcooke]

Just a quick demo of what I've been working on with creating and managing environments in Katapps.

The UI here is powered by Tailwind, Stimulus ,Turbo Frames and Streams.

@deanpcmad I’ve got lots done - I must make time for another video very soon - lots to show off and talk about.

[Adam Cooke @adamcooke]

@deanpcmad I don’t use a remote server any more. It’s all local. Sounds like another video suggestion to me 😂

I'm going to try publishing a new video in my app building series every Friday and here's the first...

A quick intro to how I'm using service classes in the application.

See video link in the first post. Let me know what is/isn't useful!

@deanpcmad Historically we have used MariaDB (rather than MySQL itself) but I’m using Postgres here. Interestingly, Viaduct is the only other time we’ve used Postgres.

Sounds like a video on why I made that choice here might be in order.

[Adam Cooke @adamcooke]

I'm about to embark on a new project at work building an app hosting platform. I'm going to be making videos about progress, the code, technical decisions and more.

Watch the first video in the post below! Do follow along.

@deanpcmad I miss the days when domains were cheaper 🤯

[Adam Cooke @adamcooke]

I really should stop buying domains that I’ll probably never use.

Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a number I can call? 🤔🚜
