Yesterday I wrote a custom page which dumped out a table for some investigation. I threw jquery and a tablesorter plug-in. Without JS you get the table, but with you can easily sort and filter. Took about 2 minutes to add the optional filter. The backend is bash of course.
I’m not even sure what I used, it’s the same 5 lines I’ve used for years. Boom bang and on to the next problem.
For every unicorn saas webapp $300k a year developers are writing there’s a thousand small pages. If you’re building a house you aren’t going to use a Swiss Army knife, but if you’re camping out for a couple of days you aren’t going to take a van full of power tools.
A couple.of well selected power tools are certainly helpful, however. A battery blower to start the fire, a small electric chainsaw for any wood cutting depending on the area and what you take in, and a portable fan if you're in a hot climate. Sometimes a couple of selected power tools are very helpful.
