@BenjaminHouy Christmas is around the corner. Gift subscription could be an idea?

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@nicoschriever That’s what I’ve been using, quite a learning curve at the start but the next docs are pretty good.

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@illyism Impressive 👌

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@jean__gatt Azure?

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@Champkinzz Thanks Charana! Maybe I will end up going the same way. Hopefully will get some users to warrant it.🤞

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

It’s a learning curve, like anything I guess but I’ve not really got anything to compare it to as such. I find next a (mostly) logical way to organise my project files. Back end stuff with Supabase is also a learning curve.

So many moving parts to this project. 🤯But getting there, slowly!

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@Champkinzz Hey thanks this looks good. I think I’m too deep in to switching at this point and would like to get familiar with what I’m working with but this looks worth considering for the next project!

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@attambulkar Nice! I’ll have to check that out. Auth is quite the learning curve! Lots of options and things to get my head around.

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@attambulkar Atm just email until I refine the sign up/log in& out flows. Then I’ll add google and fb most likely. 👍

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@porobertdev No MVC. I’m using Next.js and React, which is more component-based.

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

When you search google for a code related question it used to regularly throw up Stack Overflow posts, usually in the top couple of results.

Now it’s either a https://t.co/4ufdFIcA2y blog or a Reddit post.

How times have changed.

@jamesm Just buy running shoes. Weight train barefoot. These two sports aren’t compatible with one pair of shoes.

@atnori_ @megalopolismov Looks interesting. Didn’t know about this, I will have to check it out!

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@attambulkar @supabase @resend Yeah seems like something I’ll have to deal with. Another thing to learn I guess😅

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

Finally working on setting up Auth for the app with @supabase.

Seems like I've timed it right as they are today making changes if you're using the default email provider.

So looks like I'm learning @resend too and learning how to configure a Custom SMTP.

@theshaunwilsxn Cheers Shaun!

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

Been training over the summer for a half Marathon which I finally ran today. Happy with a sub 2 hour time. 🤘

14 weeks of training finally over. Glad I did it but got to admit I’m looking forward to getting back to resistance training again.

A Sunday bug squashing session based on some feedback from my testers. Working on Improving UI responsiveness.

[𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 @swright_dev]

@atnori_ Definitely a good string to add to the bow I would say 👍
