Take a look at the extended license, which you'll be needing in many cases. $999 vs $28, for a single site license. No thank you.

I don't think the license is worded very well. If you read it as "end user" being a visitor of your site then pretty much every theme on themeforest would cost $999 but that's not the case.

I think what the license means is if you're bundling the theme in with a product you plan to sell and distribute then you need an extended license, unless it happens to be for freelance work in which case a regular ($28) license is fine (the "note to freelancers" clause handles that). If you have a free or paid SAAS app or something like then you can use a regular license too because you're not distributing the theme as a paid product.

I've talked to the author of the theme directly and mentioned using it for a course platform I'm building (end users of the site would be paying for individual courses). He didn't mention needing an extended license for that. He even went as far as giving me permission to release the course platform as open source with his theme included[0].

[0]: What I wrote isn't official for saying you can do the same. I recommend contacting the author directly if you have intent to do that.



Can understand that, but it does seem that hapi is gaining popularity, hope you'll reconsider!


Ember FastBoot? And React also published something similar recently.


I've seen many attempts, but nothing has really taken hold as its really difficult to do right. Rather than pointing at libraries that can "help", I ask you to instead point at any places it's being done well in production, especially at scale.


Reminds me of Ember FastBoot. Different framework, different use case, but relatively easy to implement.

https://github.com/ember-fastboot/ember-cli-fastboot


Not "relatively easier"... quite literally just two commands! The people behind FastBoot are amazing.


I love how Ember keeps borrowing the best ideas from the other frameworks and evolves in a pretty responsible way.


I see these solutions a lot lately, HN browser, weather, etc, all in the terminal. Perhaps a silly question, but why the need for browsing it in the terminal instead of a browser like say, Chrome or Firefox?


Because it looks good on r/unixporn ;-)

But more to the point - it fits with many keyboard only work flows and/or tiling WMs (i3, awesome, etc). At least that's what it's good in it for me. One less context switch.


Don't those reasons also soy to browsers? My tiling window manager is perfectly capable of tiling browser windows. Browsers like Firefox and Chrome can be controlled fully by keyboard, even very comfortably with the right extension.


When work is in a terminal, and hacker news it's in a browser, it's probably a good thing that there's a context switch between them.


I've been reading HN on vim for a while.

Sometimes I just want to kill some time while code compiles/tests run. This way, HN is just on a different split pane, and I can stop browsing as soon as the other job is finished.


Besides learning purposes, I built it because I spend most of my time in a Terminal window.


Excellent write-up. I have been playing with Express a lot, but for production I am seriously considering to start using Hapi. Creating applications for the healthcare sector comes with lots of requirements and regulations. If you take that into account, Hapi makes a lot of sense, because there's a lot of boilerplate code available in the plugins (most of which are perfectly maintained) that will be required in the app.


Thanks! Please let me know how it goes for you!


Great implementation of Material Design, the best I've seen so far. With other material design implementations [1] I ran into problems with checkboxes, sliders and other design choices, as well as problems on mobile. I appreciate the design choices made for MDL. It also runs smooth on mobile and the form elements like checkboxes and sliders work really nice.

Also, useful documentation along with codepen and easy clipboard buttons.

Following.

[1] To name a few material design examples: http://superdevresources.com/material-design-web-ui-framewor...


Well, it was made by Google, who originally defined Material Design in the first place, so I'd hope it would be the best one...


Exactly, I absolutely love Ionic and it's the fix for most of the issues raised in the article.


HTTPS?


Oops I forgot to link the https version.

https://simplestpasswordgenerator.com/


I like your tool from a UX point of view, but nothing can fix the security issue that you use passwords created on a website which could at any time choose to store them.

PAAS (Password as a service) can and will never be a thing ;)


I actually had an idea for password as a service.

The security implications are all rubbish, and obviously it fails if the site goes away, but hear me out and then offer a local way of doing this, cause I'd love it:

Let's pretend you have some set of computer files that are distracting you. (A video game, or old high school/pre-divorce/estranged family photo albums, this could be anything). You want to keep them, but you want to restrict your own access to them.

Password as a service: you go to some little widget site, enter an email address, a date, and it gives you a password. Unless you have a photographic memory, you just paste it into a protected archive, forget it, and then wait until the date to get emailed a password reminder. Until then, you are locked out of your archive and there's nothing to be done until that day.

I haven't figured out a clever way of this that can't be defeated if the password is generated locally.


Browser refuses to load insecure font (that links using HTTP). You can replace "http://" with "//" so it can use HTTPS version while browsing via https.


Thanks, we updated the submission.
