Over the last few months I tried to think of a clever way to set up a legacy site for a dictionary that I serve on a VM just because I also need to run sqlite. Since I want to make sure it'll run for longer than me paying for the VM this is the best possible solution. At some point no more updates will happen and it's going to be a static website. So bundling it like this is incredible. I can run multiple backups on different hosts with no additional costs.
I started generating PDF before pagedjs and use my own electron based solution. Search for schild.report on github to see how it works. Basically reports are created via svelte templates and then printed via the electron print api. Works extremely well.
A libicu free Unicode extension. First time I hear about that and just yesterday I was slightly bothered by the prospect of compiling sqlite with icu again. Thank you to whoever wrote the extension, I'll try it out soon.
My dad's German Persian dictionary is freely available on https://farhang.im with source code on https://git.hmt.im/hmt/farhang-3
I haven't yet found the ideal way to share the sqlite database file in a current state.
You're missing the point here. I have created an electron app that renders reports via json and svelte. They are intended for print not the web and the easiest way to get the data printed was using the browser engine which gladly outputs to PDF. However, styling these pages would be a lot easier with better page support in CSS. Or at least better support of those CSS specs. I really look forward to having these polyfills. Using paged media is in a lot of contexts easier than latex. Especially when it comes to dynamic content.
Funny that you're asking on HN of all places. My wife has it after she had a stroke a few years back. The neurologist doesn't know what she's talking about. For her exercising helps and is the only cure. During the summer some time ont the trampoline will do too but that's basically exercise when done right. So she spends time at the gym like five days a week. It's time consuming and extremely annoying to her but it works. Skipping the gym is a waste of time for her because then she can't get things done. I'm glad you asked. Apparently 'brain fog' is a common term.
I need to run a vue app that can load an external file into its own frame and print that to PDF. Can sciter do that? Right now I'm using a webview in electron which lets me print just that webview to PDF.
you're right and it tends to become more and more like that. On the other hand they are so simple you can pretty much pick up any song after the first couple of lines.
In Germany we have Albert Frey, a Catholic singer and songwriter. I didn't know for years that he was Catholic since he is a major source of worship songs in evangelical churches and beyond.
For years I have never looked back. If I had a project that outgrew its purpose I wrote it again, and dropped half of its functionality without looking back.
What about nextcloudd's office solution? I'm interested too. Thinking about giving it a try for our school network which already runs its own nextcloud instance.
