Would you mind sharing this dotfile? Interesting concept
IronCoderXYZ··on Ask HN: What does your development stack look like in your favorite language?
I'm pretty sure it is only installed when you open xcode for the first time and it asks you to install "additional programs".

This is from August 6th 2018? Well over half a year ago (It's still scary)

IronCoderXYZ··on Building a front end with no JavaScript
"Slimvoice - A Webapp Without JavaScript..."

"using as little JavaScript as possible"

Without, and as little as possible are mutually exclusive.

Having worked at a major Fortune-500 company for well over a year, I am ready for my next challenge. I'm a team player, and I love learning!

IronCoderXYZ··on Apple's Business Beyond the iPhone
I love the touchbar as well, because it allows me to easily change volume (swiping a bar rather than tapping the same button) etc.

However, the ESC key is also on the touchbar, which makes using vim pretty annoying.

IronCoderXYZ··on Ending our Medium integration
My favorite part:

    # Remove the stupid footer
    footer = soup.find("footer").extract()
IronCoderXYZ··on Migrate Jest to TypeScript
This seems more like an emotional, rather than a logical and rational response.
IronCoderXYZ··on Time May Be Running Out for Millions of Clocks
Let's build a $5bn wall but cut $26.6mil in funding for a necessity. Makes sense, I hope congress can stop this?
IronCoderXYZ··on CSS grid garden
This is definitely helping my understanding of the grid system, thanks to the author!

The only thing I would suggest is to add some explanations, maybe some mnemonic aids and such. I'd be happy to help.

IronCoderXYZ··on Stop Datamining Me
They're the best, absolutely tremendous work, amazing people. Make privacy great again!
IronCoderXYZ··on Don't Post Evergreen Content on Medium
Granted, publishing on Medium removes a lot of the author's own "branding"; but doesn't Medium also provide a certain level of visibility that would be quite hard to obtain if one were to publish individually?
IronCoderXYZ··on Ask HN: How do you manage UI/UX for your side projects?
Here is what I typically do:

- Draw out a design using Sketch, draw.io or any other similar tool.

- Find a color scheme, I typically google for "flat UI colors" since I like them most. Adobe color wheel is also a great tool for finding complementary / shades of colors: https://color.adobe.com/create/color-wheel/

- Then I start prototyping my ideas, typically in react, using a CSS-in-JS lib such as styled-components, this allows for quick iteration.

- I do research. For example, I look at how other websites or UI component libraries do things. Examples are material UI, ant design, semantic UI.

The most important thing is refinement. You start with a rough sketch, prototype in react or HTML and then start playing around with the CSS. Learning all the css attributes definitely helps. Don't try and learn them all from a list, but just google them as appropriate and you'll start picking them up. For example, you might think: "How do I center the children elements both vertically and horizontally on different screen sizes?". A quick google search will suggest to use display: flex, justify-content: center, and align-items: center.
