I can 100% assure you there are others being built as I type this. The thing that absolutely amazes me is that WP has remained as popular as it has. Maybe the drama that is ongoing will really get some folks looking at viable alternatives. There is a lot of room for improvement with today's stack compared to the core WP codebase. From a dev point of view, let's face it. "The Loop" sucks and it sucks badly.

But, in your use case you can "mostly" be assured that your authors are also your primary readers... Another issue with the "Just run with it and see how it goes"... Most have no IDEA of the amount of work that would go into that "Run with it" part :ROFLMAO:

LMAO, I swear that was not me. If you know you know ;)

Which is why I suggested pairing it with user settings so that it would be easier since they would just need to toggle. If you could first reach a place where everyone was with it on the formatting side then you could move forward. As for covering the text colors in relations to the many theme variants you could possible address that with some css/js trickery that was based on their preference but that insured enough contrast to based variant rule..... I'm not much of a front-end guy so take that with a grain of salt :P

I mean I would think that would kinda be understood from the jump. I think a lot of times that might come from a lack of social skills in general. Not speaking bad about those that find themselves there but there is degrees of social aptitude.

I think this is really the issue (if I understand it all, there is a lot of nuance in the workflow there 😅 ) since it is dependent upon the user formatting the conversation correctly 100% of the time if you were to even try and consider it for allowing the to set preferences to then act upon, and we both know that will never happen :ROFLMAO: My suggestion was to make it much easier and intuitive for the user to correctly format so that the other side of that could be possible, but, there again, its only possible if everyone adheres to the program and that will never happen. So, honestly, I thinks its probably better to skip that rabbit hole :) Just my humble opinion.

Yea, I see your point. It's an interesting edge case for sure.

I'm sure you have already considered this (and I have even less of an idea of how well it would work in practice in your context) but my immediate thought about the colored text would be to allow the user to set their preferences in their settings (per character) somewhere and add a toggle to the editor. Might be more trouble than its worth though. With that said...... Very interesting, very very interesting. So, outside the usual "context".

This is really, where its going just for the Mezzio ecosystem. The target audience are those folks that freelance but need or want the flexibility that is offered, just with an expanded package set to "get started quickly" with packages that are as flexible as the framework itself. Who knows, I might put a couple years into it and it may go nowhere, or it might gain some traction. Time will tell. It'll be a fun journey either way :) I mean after all, I just wanna build cool stuffz :)

Oh, trust me, I totally understand how far ahead they are and that's ok. But, I truly believe it can be done and working on doing it.

I say comparable, but I should really say better dev experience than laravel, or at least that is the goal.

[mention=79]Arantor[/mention], man I wish you would join the Axleus Discord. Got sooo many cool things that are upcoming. Component based framework development with a comparable developer experience to laravel.

https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.magic.php#object.set-state Should be explicit to the instance ;) IE also, not seedy :)

That is the entire point of __toString() :) no going out of your way and its not seediness :)

[mention=79]Arantor[/mention], frickin CLASS A response my friend, bar none. I'm just gonna leave it where [mention=79]Arantor[/mention] left it.

I disagree and here is why. Creativity is the one thing that AI struggles with the most. In respect to code. 99.9% of the time, the most creative solution will be a few other things as well. It will be both the most elegant solution to a given problem, which means rarely its not also the simplest solution to a given problem as well. Its one thing to create code from code its learned somewhere at some point in one of its training models. But, what about the solutions it has never encountered because they would require a level of creativity that AI is simply not capable of, this is where the human developer will shine for years to come.

At what point should a person be considered to "know" html? That, as I learned the hard way is a very subjective thing. What happens when you start using a JS framework that operates on the "Shadow DOM"? It can go even further in respect to html. What if the system you are developing is built around HATEOAS? If your application responds with an html template fragment then it must represent the current application state. This concept is a lot times what delineates the front end developers from the backend developers. Do you know how to validate your html? Do you validate said html for both logged in users and guest (see above for why it's important)? Just remember, sometimes html and its correctness can and will have implications beyond what you can see in the browser.

I think this is basically a question of who is naturally talented in the area of programming and who is not. For those that are, college level classes in respect to programming are almost always a waste of time and can, depending on the professor, actually teach you more bad habits than good. Some of the best dev's I have ever worked with were completely self taught. I fall into the self taught category. For those that do not pick it up as easily then class work in a structured environment can be a huge help. The part that most of those folks struggle with is the parts of learning programming that are abstract concepts such as design patterns, theory etc.

I can see WAF as an issue depending on the user input. A single quote can be valid user input, but if you filter that at the WAF then the user input is either A) Incomplete or B) Never reaches the application.

I am currently writing a custom blog software that will power my Mastering Mezzio website. It will be a learning resource platform for Mezzio framework. In the first iteration it will just be blog post but the second iteration I have planned to introduce courses that will support streaming lectures on the related topics. The UI is powered by Pico CSS framework and Htmx. It leverages laminas-view as the template engine. I am also, at the same time, building the integration packages for htmx that any developer will be able to install that will provide a laminas view implementation that not only supports htmx "boosting" for an ajaxed UI but will provide "theme" support out of the box for all Mezzio based applications that use laminas view as a template engine.

Its garbage. It creates garbage code. My suggestion is Visual Studio Code. https://code.visualstudio.com/ Install it. Learn it. Build faster in all of the languages you need in a full stack environment in a single IDE. It's the best thing MicroSoft has ever done.

The number 1 requirement. An intense desire to learn. In programming, especially in web, you must learn on a daily basis. Period. If you do not like learning new skills, new techniques then it's not for you. It will be the one constant in your career since it is the one single thing you will never be able to stop doing.

One has to be mindful of the mental debt that is incurred when switching context though.

I'm curious as to what tech stack you leverage?
