AMICABoard··on NB-Fi, a Better and Open Lora, SigFox, NB-IoT Alternative?
I am impressed by NB-Fi, in fact I am going to implement and experiment with it by building a board using the AX5043 chip. Has anyone tried NB-Fi before?
AMICABoard··on Featherwiki.com – 2.1MB Compact Multi OS Single Binary Wiki Server
The cross between the awesome redbean.dev open source webserver in a zip executable that runs on six operating systems and feather.wiki for creating personal non-linear notebooks, databases, and wikis that is entirely self-contained and runs in your browser! Phew - it's smaller than a TiddlyWiki file.
AMICABoard··on Redbean – Server that runs on 6 OSes
Redbean - Server that runs on 6 OSes. Also can be opened as zip file, comes with Lua inbuilt!
AMICABoard··on Redbean 2.0 turned into more than a hobby project
Never fails to amaze me! People here should check out cosmopolitan too!

It would be awesome if you could join in to hack!

Nice!

There is a option to sync in the last build. Look for the Tern, Swallow and BT variants here: https://codeberg.org/Alamantus/FeatherWiki/src/branch/main/b...

Actually I discovered it by chance as I was looking for a tiddly wiki alternative that can display on my Jail broken Kindle - it didn't work cos the browser is crippled - but loved it and started writing to the author on his repo via issues. Somebody changed that title for me. Didn't know that on HN people can edit other peoples titles...

In this context: Saves both content and the web application itself as and output html.

The wiki/app is the html file itself. If you add / remove content, you get another html file that contains the wiki app and the added / modified content.

No need for complicated applications, compatible wherever a browser runs (All OS), always compatible cos html (the raw html is human readable). No proprietary format lock in.

For mindblowing stuff:

LOL :) ROFL

Pro tip: For the present you could use widdly https://gitlab.com/opennota/widdly with tiddlywiki for the db saving which is a damn simple set up. You could use caddy as reverse proxy when hosting on a VPS. On my home system I have a custom widdly and a full bells and whistles TiddlyWiki. I use it also on a server to share ideas with my partner who also has an instance.

Feather Wiki Nest is the thing I am looking forward too. It would be a single application, start it and forget it, your wiki just works. That's immense awesomeness!

Unfortunately with respect to Feather Wiki, fuse.min.js is too large (23KB) :) But the fuzzy search is a good idea. If you find a very tiny js search lib, please post it here on HN or here: https://codeberg.org/Alamantus/FeatherWiki/issues

Hey Alamantus, if you need it, I can note down all suggestions here and create issues in a few hours.
AMICABoard··on Feather Wiki: app for creating personal non-linear notebooks, databases, wikis
I'm not the author. This is a new project and these versions are there so that the core could be minimum at the same time have versions with more features. As the project grows, I'm sure there will be only one variant or options for features could be specified during build time. For now, see it as pre alpha and the variants as a form of A/B testing to strike a balance between minimum size, essential features and good to have features. Bit tricky to balance. Invite you to hack and help balance - need more people there.

Similar to your interest. I've been experimenting with Data URIs and base64 encoded html pages. I could manage around 400kb in url, beyond which it wouldn't load in chrome and firefox.

itty bitty is a great tool to store stuff in urls with compression! http://itty.bitty.site/

A plugin for Feather Wiki to export to itty bitty would be awesome. I've personally did some experiments. I'll share the finding to the Feather Wiki author to give him an idea and also add an issue for a plug in request, so some hackers can work on it...

I've created an issue at itty bitty github some time ago so that wikis like tiddly wikis and feather wiki could be fully compatible:

https://github.com/alcor/itty-bitty/issues/70

There is also link to an example in that issue.

The goal is making it smaller and smaller at the same time improving usability. It will never be like TiddlyWiki, it sort of complements TiddlyWiki. This project is very new. So I think there will be lot of improvement. Any willing hackers here can check this out and contribute code: https://codeberg.org/Alamantus/FeatherWiki and help make it smaller, faster, better
AMICABoard··on Feather Wiki: app for creating personal non-linear notebooks, databases, wikis
Yeah the author of that app is actively looking for help on plugins and core here: https://codeberg.org/Alamantus/FeatherWiki
AMICABoard··on We Used HyperScale Fund the Venture Capital from the Future
It will be soon, check out their roadmap: https://hyperscale.medium.com/whats-next-for-hyperscale-1326...
AMICABoard··on We Used HyperScale Fund the Venture Capital from the Future
We used HyperScale Fund and we are impressed, It's like Venture Capital from the future! The concept is cool, takes 5 minutes to apply and a week to get funded. Projects with the highest number of votes get funded each week and algorithms determine the size of fund to be released. Impressive for what started out as a tweet three weeks ago. (Disclosure: The link leads to our project listing. If people connect to discord and upvote, it would help us out big. We intend to produce a tangible and very useful product. It would be awesome if fellow hackers her would give us a shout out and vote.)
