Streamiverse is written in Kitten and you can follow the “htmx, the htmx WebSocket extension, and socket routes” tutorial to create a Kitten app that consumes the API:

kitten.small-web.org/tutorials…

To get started with Kitten, see:

kitten.small-web.org

(Could be a fun little thing to play with this weekend.)

Hey web devs, not breaking links doesn’t have to be hard…

Heard of the 404 → 307 technique? (Well, now you have!)

How to set up a mimimal/blank new tab page on Ungoogled Chromium that conforms to your system’s dark mode setting:

github.com/ungoogled-software/…

PS. You can install Ungoogled Chromium easily on macOS using Homebrew:

```shell
brew install --cask eloston-chromium
```

For more macOS setup/configuration tips see my quick gist:

Someone hearted a Pen I made over a year ago, a no library, minimal JS version of another I found on @codepen.

At the time, it didn't work in Firefox as it was transitioning custom properties and support for :has() there was spotty.

Now it's cross-browser codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/gOqYdJd

Why do so many web pages use something like this as their opening paragraph? Is this taught in SEO school or something?

"Hello, everyone! Today I’m going to talk about (SUBJECT), and whether or not you should (SUBJECT). It seems like a simple enough question, but the answer might not be as straightforward as you think. In this blog post, I’m going to explore the benefits and drawbacks of (SUBJECT), and provide some tips for deciding whether or not it’s the right choice for you."

It sounds like a desperate student trying to pad out their essay when they have no idea what they're talking about. 😆

Funny how, a decade ago, they called us “tin-foil hat conspiracy theorists” for suggesting such things and we were shunned by “respectable” folks in the web community afraid to lose their favoured status as Big Tech’s bottom feeders.

Gosh I do love how elegant Playwright + my little Kitten¹ process helper makes it to write end-to-end tests.

Check out the tests for the peer-to-peer web (Small Web) end-to-end encrypted chat example²:

codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/br…

That handles the setting up of two instances (place1.localhost:498 and place2.localhost:499) and tests the sending of end-to-end encrypted messages between them.

Just updated the Kitten reference section on testing Kitten to include instructions on running the new regression and end-to-end tests.

Will only be of interest if you’re hacking on Kitten itself.

I’m writing a #newsletter called Own Your Web about designing, building, creating, and publishing for and on the #Web. It took a little work-induced break but the next issue is ready and will go out this Sunday.

Come as you are¹ on @codepen codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/yLw…

No text duplication whatsoever, no text-shadow, no images save for #CSS gradients, no JS, just #SVG #filter magic.

Also an entry for this week's #CodePenChallenge.

Really enjoying adding end-to-end tests to Kitten¹ using Playwright² and my own little Kitten controller class for starting/stopping/otherwise interacting with the Kitten server.

Just wrote some that comprehensively test identity creation and authentication for Small Web places:

codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/br…

Lots more to write but I think I’ve found a good flow :)

If you’re looking for a browser extension like Stylus (which lets you override browser styles, scoped to specific sites) for Safari on macOS, check out Cascadea. It’s by an independent developer (Mike Freuden), doesn’t farm you for your data, and seems to do what it says on the tin (in my limited few minutes of testing right now¹) :)

¹ I’m using it to hide the controls on the local export of my slides.com presentation.
