By simply serializing the data via API and as raw data on server templates.
Git "pods" with "repos", "issue" and "review" feeds.
Every changes on a repo is notified in a repos feed.
Each issue or review is a file in a folder with an hash and people can reply on the conversation, or at least the "notification" of it in their feed.
A nice approach I saw in Trello, you can email a card ID and it get embedded in the card, it can be done here too on the file, as to not have everything spread on hundreds of feeds.
Working like this you can integrate twtxt but not rely on it entirely, letting users use it without it, I'd see this as generic integration though, so other can add more "bridges" (like in git-bug) to their liking.
How it's it?

How is it?
A way to have them seamlessly would be to handle the same page with content-type but maybe it's an overkill for this kind of project.
But personally I prefer the file based approach though, you have a friendly folder that lets you open anyway you want without fiddling the repo, you can use a separate repo if you don't like it in the source and everything is tracked in the same way without having to manual dig in them if you don't want to use a given tool.
This is one that could be a better solution if you like that approach too: https://github.com/dspinellis/git-issue
Being file based also let you build a "protocol" on it that can be detached from the repo in itself and let you manage it in a similar fashion of twtxt.
What do you think?
About the web interface, I'd suggest to use REST API as the main interface regardless of where it's built, so you can use them both on client and server side with the same data structure and available actions.
For the client side of any external scripting or custom web clients you have pure data to work with, if on the server side you have the same structs to build the HTML.
This helps us avoid having to work on both in parallel like with Yarn.social and leaving one side behind the other.
I saw the code after replying here.
I tried to give some tips for everyone other than the code itself, feel free to follow just what you need from my review. π
I can see those:
- hosting
- bug tracking
- code reviews
- forking (i guess?)
- SSH
- push / pull (it's read only now, right?)
Do you plan on having them join?
Also for the name, how about:
- "progit" or "prologit" (prologic official hard fork)
- "git-stance" (git instance)
- "GitTree" (Gitea inspired, maybe to related)
- "Gitomata" (git automata)
- "Git.Source"
- "Forgor" (forgit is taken so I forgor) π€£
- "SweetGit" (as salty chat)
- "Pepper Git" (other ingredients) π
- "GitHeart" (core of git with a GitHub sounding name)
- "GitTaka" (With music in mind)
Ok, enough fun... Hope this helps sprout some ideas from others if nothing is to your taste.

On a phone it's intuitive, but it's hell on desktop, I'd personally make them wrap on larger screens.
The only issue I can point out is the height is the scrollable area, just adding a bit of space above and below make a great difference for a better "fat-finger" design.
@prologic what you want for filters is a really great idea, I thought about it too for some of my projects at work, It allow you to support advanced filters and then implement them after as buttons or similar all while keeping a plain texts format, they can also be used as custom filters potentially too.
But I need to avoid at all cost to push this approach onto others as often they can't keep up with my pacing.
As a solution I found that drawing is the best way to explain things to me, since i get slowed down by my hands focusing on the current sketches and it also help them understand what's happening in code or other structures visually.
That's right...
My new mentions is filling the screen! π€
@ocdtrekkie let's keep watching him!
Things like git-notes might work with it?
main will include your dog from the branch feature?
main will include your diff from the branch feature?
Love the illustrations though. π
Maybe a branch based approach like the one used in GitHub/Lab/tea is simpler but still doable? Maybe as part for legit fork?
Also a quick look around got me on this site, could it be what you're aiming for? (In scope at least)
As for the name of the project if it get to a good point it could become a complete solution for the basic needs of git dev (if I understood the hard-fork need).
It'll be like a swiss army knife, so, with that thinking in mind:

I'm experimenting a bit on theming and design tokens, having a fun project to work on might be a good chance to fiddle a bit more.
I also made it to be extensible with modules-like field types.
You can generate passwords, PINs and TOTPs.
And the coolest one is the ability to store arbitrary data using XOR operations on the content to keep them safe, not usually in these kind of tools.
It has the usual downsides of a deterministic password generator but I find it more secure than a cloud provider and simpler to use than fiddling with GPG.
Basically I'm relying on a Polymorphic class to do it.

Soon I'll get a better presentation and a proper Open Source repo.
What I thought was maybe something to share with others but you're right about not being needed, a friend to me could a simple news feed to others.
@lyse Didn't noticed the registry format, I thought it was a custom tool for the one I saw online.
twtxt.txt it can be used by other clients with a centralized solution, maybe I'm overthinking it too much.Great feature nonetheless. π
@lyse Yes, they are units related to the viewport:
-
vh Height-
vw Width-
vmin Shortest side-
vmax Longest sideUsed together with
font-size allows me to use em units as a percentage that scale dynamically on any screen, keeping proportion on everything (like the border-radius of the rings).Using viewport units is simple with good support and let me avoid using less supported rules like
aspect-ratio or hacks like the padding-bottom trick (both to make squares or rectangles without a specific size).
I have a routine of "breaking the status quo" for my workflow just for get smarter and better, and eventually share them with others.

It is pure CSS and HTML, no JS or any libraries/frameworks.
The CSS for everything is, to my own surprise, shorter than expected, it's really easy to follow in my opinion.
Fell free to ask if anyone has any doubts or want more explanations! π

I personally learned my first programming language (Python), on my own with some random video tutorial, by following them, repeating, analysing the results and breaking apart all I just made to see what worked and what didn't.
I still use this approach up until now, with my little journey in Go for example. πβοΈ
It might be hard to follow without the essentials, at that university they never ever worked with a project with more than one file, even if someone is interested it's hard to work on something that reflect a realistic case in those circumstances.
They're probably on their own I think, hope I can help him to get better at it.
A PDF parser that read texts but extract it like a chessboard.
I'm a bit confused and we didn't met yet, so for now I'll take it as a parser for a table (the chessboard).
I think we're going to learn programming from the zero.
When I think back to the exams, now that I've seen his skills, could it be that the university lowered their expectations about their students because of their nonexistent interest?
As I said, he seems interested because he saw a software being built at his company, the time prior to that might have been just wasted time of doing nothing...
Hope to see more about it! π
That must be the reason for such hostility on the project, of course it's not really an issue since we know it's been renamed to "Yarn.social" now, but I guess the domain "twtxt.net" might still be a problem for some people. π€
@eaplmx Fun fact: I actually learned from a real monkey, it bit off on B and the banana came out cleanly, once I tried it became the only way for me. π΅π
I think some people can see it as "stealing" for the sake of "overriding" a project with it's own, I know it's not like that, but I stayed away from twtxt and yarn.social for some years just because I was confused about where to go.
Of course, once I dug in it a bit more I came to understand what and why, but I guess others can see this as a threat, maybe?
The best way is to allow both options and let the user decide on what is needed, I too keep dark mode always on, but I have some occasional situations where I need to switch to light mode.
I'll try on my next install! π
I'll let you know what he manages to pull off.
it'll be a long journey
He's already working in a software company as a tester (but can't access any code).
And reached out to me for help to become better at something he's bad at, so the excitement and an helping hand should push him to have proper interest on coding in general, as I said he's now stuck in C but I hope he'll get to a point where what language he knows at the time won't stop him to learn something easier and more versatile.
I personally learn by doing: make something you want and learn how on the run, that was my idea for him too.
I also asked him what would be interesting to make for him personally and then start from there.
As you said, being "correct" about something doesn't mean others will find it "right" since it can subjective on some cases and first-hand experiences can help on finding the "mid point" in a discussion.
@prologic sorry if it sounded like I was fooling around, I replied like that because I thought I messed up the topic of "echo chambers" entirely, it started from a meme so I tried to end on a lighter note. π€

The only real case I could think is something like a game or something but it's still a mess not being experience myself I don't want to bother too much.
I ever thought of using wasm to make something in a web page but I might give his teachers an heart attack. π
Still he needs C to pass the exam for now.
Just to note, the exam is like this:
- Load a text file
- Read the numbers in it
- Print the highest number
That's what that university asks to graduate as a tech engineer. π₯²
No wonder he said he made an app in python and the source was made of only
print() calls. π€£
Well, echo chambers are fun to sing duets with yourself. πΊ πΊπΊ π»
The situation is bad, seeing him execute
source.c without compiling it made me feel things. π₯²I'm not proficient in C myself but thanks to Go I got the essential quickly...
Does anyone have any ideas for some small projects to build in C that looks interesting to make?
What did it say?
As for my opinion on the topic of echo chambers, what I and others can do to share their point of view without hurting others in a discussion is to also tell your personal experience on the matter, if you add context to why your own statement is "correct" to you (not to be confused with "right" or "truth"), than the other party can interpret the reasoning behind it and come to understand the "gap" in opinions on the same subject.
I often try to start topics by sharing my life experience on the matter which allows others to add to the table rather than fight each other. π€
@prologic Thanks for the insight π on Meta/Facebook, that's exactly what I'm thinking when sharing your view to others.
