konradkplon ContainerScript: Firefox Addon for programmatically assigning URLs to containers

There is a built-in possibility to assign URLs to containers: https://konradkruk.com/images/CleanShot%202024-12-02%20at%20...

However, there is no possibility to adjust matching rules, so this script offers a bit more customization options.

konradkplon Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (October 2024)

I am developing a 3D activities visualization tool for Strava (https://paintmove.com/).

My goal is to enhance the visualization and increase performance to reduce animation generation time. Additionally, I want to improve the overall aesthetics by applying colors and designing the paths to resemble a serpentine shape rather than a pipe.

konradkplon I love native desktop apps, I will miss them

konradkplon React Aria: A headless UI component library

React Aria is a great project! We used it to meet WCAG 2.1 level AA requirements in our chat widget. It's even hard to assess how many days of work we have saved thanks to this solution. We've covered a bit of our experience in multiple posts, e.g. with handling keyboard navigation: https://developers.livechat.com/updates/livechat-accessibili...).

konradkplon Xata – Database service for serverless apps

Looks promising. Platforms such as Netlify have greatly simplified the development of web applications. Recently I tried Netlify forms - child's play, in 4 minutes I had a working form with e-mail notification. All I had to do was create the correct HTML code. If they simplify the use of the database in simple projects in a similar way, it will be a great success.

konradkplon Podman, the open source Docker alternative ported to M1 (Apple Silicon) machines

The current macbook pro 13 with M1 does not differ significantly from the macbook air m1: https://9to5mac.com/2021/09/01/m1-macbook-air-vs-m1-macbook-... . You have one core more and active cooling with fan, but in daily use it is difficult to generate the load that will trigger this cooling. The situation will definitely change with the new Macbook Pro 14/16 to be shown in October or November.

konradkplon Guide to Firefox Containers (2018)

Firefox Containers is a great feature that deserves more credits. This feature allows us to avoid tracking, while at the same time ensuring the convenience of use and does not require the user to change their habits. Do you want to limit facebook? Create the container, set the default facebook.com opening in it, and use the browser as before. This should be a standard feature in any browser.

Many users prefer LiveChat, rather than browsing the documentation or using the search engine. Additionally, documentation and search engine don't provide private information, e.g. the status of your order.
