I want to make it easier to just quickly enable wake lock on your device in a cross platform, no install, offline capable way. It's a silly little project but I'm super proud of it.

This is my site! It does some decent traffic for a joke website


Direct inspiration for https://favmeup.com/

Used it as a nice intro project to try out cloudflare hosting.


Here's mine! https://skeoh.com/othello/

It's not nearly as polished but I had a lot of fun making it. It uses React and the now-no-longer-maintained https://boardgame.io/.

Uses the screen wake lock API if available (or falls back to a hidden video file if unavailable) to keep your screen awake. It's cross platform, zero-install tool with offline support which I use to keep my work laptop awake all day.


Golfing SVG happens to be one of my passions. Your path definition can be further reduced to

Without RedReader I would not use Reddit. It's understandable that they would want to capitalize off third-party app users -- this approach is pretty disappointing though. Been on the site over 15 years but looks like things are coming to an end.


Short of building my own using this API, does a self-hosted Codesandbox/Stackblitz alternative exist? I love the idea of spinning up web containers within my corporate network so I can prototype applications using internal APIs.


Beware of this (from their enterprise page):

"Licensing is required for production usage of the API in a for-profit setting (feel free to prototype as much as you like without a license). If you're using the API to meet the needs of your customers, prospective customers, and/or employees you need a license to ensure continued access to the API as you scale."


Eric (StackBlitz CEO) here- you can actually self host StackBlitz! You’ll just need our Enterprise Edition (https://stackblitz.com/enterprise) which can be run on any cloud or on-prem. Happy to answer any questions you might have!


For free?


We have a generous free tier on stackblitz.com! Self-hosting does require a paid license though (we have to keep the lights on somehow :)


Gitpod/codeserver exist. They are basically cloud vscode with server sidr containers.


Codeanywhere offers on-prem hosted and air-gapped workspaces supporting devcontainer.json


Super cool and congrats on shipping! Something I'd love to see is the ability to embed a document on other sites via iframes a la GitHub Gist embeds. That way I could, say, write a blog post describing an algorithm, embed an example of the calculations, and allow visitors to tweak the values and see how they affect the output. Well done!


Linked in the Further Reading section is the Red Blob Games article on Hexagonal Grids which is a fantastic resource and is definitely worth a read.

Could you expound on this? Are you speaking from experience?
