another web journey

Despite insane temperatures I've done quite a lot this last month! Let's have a look.

for work I

• attended the Digital Publishing Summit in Prague
• migrated a XSLT manipulating dates from version 1.0 to 2.0! 100 lines of code removed, leap years natively included. Hurray!

while surfing I

• learned that there are more bots than humans on the web 😑
• read Manuel's article about the upcoming headingoffset attribute
• watched a video about CSS Grid Lanes

Bludit glitches fixing

• for several websites I manage, homepage was displayed as a blogpost because of this change - I fixed that and pushed an update on Simple.css theme as well
• search field on my blog was super tiny because of this change (my own haha) - I removed the hack I added in the past and updated the grid wrapper to have it displayed correctly
• I did some digging to resolve issues raised on Bludit forum or GitHub project

FreeCodeCamp

It's that time again. As I eventually managed to run the FreeCodeCamp exam app on my Manjaro (Arch based) / KDE machine (thanks to this conversation on GitHub I took the newest Responsive web design exam and passed 😁 Now I'm back to the vanilla JavaScript lessons. I'm still learning a lot! Always interesting.

other tech related things I did

• updated my website and added an English version. I may switch it to Eleventy at some point, I would prefer to edit a Markdown file than an HTML one
• configured my email address for this domain on hosting provider (at last). I may add a contact form someday
• had another round of verification upon my wife godfather's computer which doesn't respond at all. I ordered a fresh CMOS battery, let's hope that was the root cause.
