I must admit that clicking on "Critical Incidents Checklist" and getting "Server Error 500" was quite funny.

  X make sure the backend is up

500 Server Error

Seems to have been fixed as of two seconds ago

Not anymore though.

How about

  [x] If a page can be static, it probably should

I'm surprised that this was built in a way where it's possible to throw a 500 error. This is a simple website. Why isn't it just a couple of static pages?

Here's something for your checklist: Make sure you use an appropriate technology for the problem you're solving.

I feel the same.

While it's down, those checklists are available on github[1]. I wondered whether they are general/reusable, but apparently it's mostly organizational (and rather specific) checklists of a software company as of now.

They are also available on the wayback machine: http://web.archive.org/web/20190405031607/https://devcheckli...

Another set of dev checklists that I put together may be of help to some: https://ch.ckl.st/r/comprehensive-web-application-checklist

Hi folks, I'm Flávio from Vinta. Someone posted this before we made it almost-static and therefore HN-ready, so sorry for the issues! We were planning to launch it with more checklists and a better backend. For now, in case you face issues, please try the original markdown versions on GitHub:

Hello Flávio,

Before I give you feedback on your wonderful set of checklists, wanted to give you some background for this message.

Last Thursday was Global Accessibility Awareness Day, which I cofounded. A day meant for developers and designers to learn about the importance of coding accessibility. This is for the purpose of making it possible for people like my friend Tommy Edison to use the web. Here's a demo of him using a screen reader: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzffnbBex6c

What's really important for accessibility is that sites that focus on teaching coders get accessibility right. It would be great if you added an accessibility checklist as well. For example https://www.wuhcag.com/wcag-checklist/.

Unfortunately your site has a few accessibility issues as well. A good place to check it is here: https://wave.webaim.org/ or https://www.deque.com/axe/ .

I know coding is hard. So many things to know from security to front end to back end etc... So this is just meant as a friendly message.

Thanks! J

Server error 500

It's an unfortunate time to be down

An HN kiss!

500 server error on most checklists

I got back, and this site still contains 500 errors.

It seems to be down. HN effect? :)

having a look at some of these on github ( as the software 500s ), they aren't really checklists, they are more like guides where various points in the guide are simply given a check box.

Server is down

It's not down, it's broken. Instantly getting a 500 indicates a bed being shit.

If it was down we'd expect 502/503/504
