I was pursuing the wrong thing all along.\nWhen building a product, you need to ask yourself: \"What do I want to have on my website?\" Then, as ideas come into your mind, write them down, preferrably in a text document on your computer. Then order the features that you want to have by their complexity.\nAnd then go from least complex, to the most, implementing it in the laziest way possible.\nThe lazy programmer method\nI'm not exactly sure I invented something new, but I think I'd like to call it \"The lazy programmer method\". Why lazy? Because programmers need to be lazy. Invention is a product of laziness. We invent new stuff to have more time to be lazy and get some rest.\nPeople in my country say that the leap from the apes to homo sapiens\u00a0was performed when the concept of labor was invented. That tools were invented out of labor. No! They were invented out of laziness. Using a simple tool, an ape could get its job done faster, receive food more efficiently, and thus, have more time to enjoy the fruits of its labor. Humans are the same.\nWhen you implement features you want in your product in the laziest way possible, sorted by complexity, three things happen:\nYour code becomes simple and easy to debug\nThis may or may not be obvious. But when you write as little code as possible, you may not find yourself as tangled when something goes wrong. Less code means less places to make mistakes, after all!\nYour code evolves in a natural way\nGoing from simple to complex is just how everything in nature works. Writing code the lazy way allows you to learn as you go. When one of the features you want to implement requires a thing you never knew about, you can pick it up as you go, and not try to cram stuff into your brain as if you're studying for an exam.\nAnd we all know that everything you cram for an exam will disappear as soon as you go and write it on paper. (That's why I stopped making notes in school one day, because I tend to forget stuff I write down)\nYou only implement what you need\nRemember, how I said: \"write things down first\"? This helps you with planning. Sometimes my brain tends to make me want to cram as much shiny stuff in my blog as possible; this led me to working on the new redesign for over a year already. I understand now that I need to start from scratch and apply everything I wrote above in my own practice.\nThe lazy girl's website\nOk, so you know the method, let me try showing you how it works in real life and try to fit my new blog frontend's concept in this method.\nFeatures\nStatic rendering - of course, a proper IndieWeb website should be available without JS.\n  Dark and light themes - for sane people and for people who want their eyes to burn.\n  \n    Support for most content types I usually post:\n    Notes - simple Twitter-like posts\n      Articles - long-form posts with a title\n      Photos and videos - I list them together because these media types are very similar to each other\n      Food and drinks - because who doesn't want to turn their blog into a food porn collection?\n      Exercise - umm, yeah, might be tough on quarantine but I still want to get my physical activity up\n      Check-ins - might feel a little bit non-relevant on quarantine too but I want to highlight some local businesses that need our love and support!\n    \n  Ability to log in to the website to view private posts\n  A service worker to cache the website's content\n  A simple admin interface just for me, built right into the frontend, as a stretch goal\nMy past mistakes\nMy first mistake was starting in the unknown lands, with React. Next.js turned out to be a well-made framework, but it wasn't built for sites like mine, which need to be able to be stupidly simple.

Meetable: Updates for Virtual Events

    "content": {
        "text": "Meetable is the software that runs events.indieweb.org and a couple other event sites that I host. Over the last couple months, we've had to cancel a bunch of IndieWeb events or convert them to virtual events, and I've been watching for patterns to see if there was anything the software could do to facilitate this.\nToday I just launched a few new features that will help out event organizers posting events on Meetable websites! I decided on adding these features by looking for things people were already doing by editing the event names or descriptions.\nEvent Status\nEvents now have a \"status\", which can be \"confirmed\" (the default), \"postponed\", \"tentative\", or \"cancelled\". Anything other than \"confirmed\" will show a little badge next to the event name calling out the event status.\u00a0\nThis badge also appears on the event pages themselves. For postponed events, the date now says \"TBD\" in addition to the originally scheduled date.\nThis status can be set when you create the event initially, or edited later. This is useful for cases such as a regular weekly meeting that skips a week when you want to make sure attendees know that the event is actually cancelled and you didn't just forget to post it. Thanks to Tantek for that suggestion!\nThis status is included in the ICS feed as well, so you should see those statuses in your calendar app if you've subscribed to the ICS feeds.\nCancelled events also hide the RSVP button and stop accepting webmentions.\n\"Postponed\" isn't one of the statuses in the iCal spec, but it's come up enough times that I thought it was worth adding anyway. I'm also not 100% sold on the icons and colors I chose for these, so suggestions are welcome. Please only suggest icons from the font-awesome collection though otherwise it's a lot more work.\nVirtual Meeting URLs\nNow that all of our events have been happening online, we need a place to share the link to join the online meeting. This isn't the same as the event website field that currently exists, since that's more for when you add an event that exists elsewhere like a related conference. Instead, this is specifically a link that you will click just before (or during) the event to join the online meeting, whether that's Zoom, Jitsi, Google Hangouts, or something else.\u00a0\nOne of the patterns that's emerged from doing this manually is that people will update the event description to say \"come back 15 minutes before the events starts to find the meeting link\". This is for two reasons. Some platforms don't give you a meeting link until you start the meeting, and if the meeting link is persistent, then you don't want to share it too far in advance otherwise you might attract the zoombombers.\nI added a new field to Meetable's event creation UI specifically to add the meeting URL. Meetable will hide the URL until 15 minutes before the event starts, and it will disappear again after the event is over.\nBefore the event starts, you'll see a note that the meeting link will be revealed 15 minutes before the event.\nOnce the event is less than 15 minutes away, the event page shows the join link.\nThis works regardless of what meeting platform you're using since all it's doing is conditionally showing a URL!\nBuilt-In Zoom Scheduling\nWe give IndieWeb event organizers the option of using a shared IndieWeb Zoom account to host meetings. (Event organizers are always welcome to use whatever platform they choose, but we make this available thanks to our community sponsors in case organizers want to use it.)\u00a0\nSince Zoom has skyrocketed in popularity as well has had some pretty major issues around zoombombing when being used for public events like this, it's become a lot more important to use unique meeting IDs and passwords for each event, whereas before we could get away with the lazy approach of using the permanent meeting ID on the account. This has lead to a lot more manual work by organizers when planning an event to go an log in and create a scheduled meeting. So I added a feature to Meetable which will use the Zoom API to automatically create a scheduled meeting at the right time for the event, and set the meeting URL to the zoom link!\nNow when you create a virtual event in Meetable, you have a checkbox you can check which will go create a scheduled Zoom meeting for you!\nThen 15 minutes before the event starts, the link will be shown on the page! As the organizer, you can log in to the Zoom account and you'll see the scheduled event in the Zoom app.\u00a0\nSince Zoom includes the password in the link itself, it's still one click to join the meeting this way!\nThat's about it! I hope you enjoy the new features, and let me know if you're using Meetable yourself!\nIf you'd like to see Meetable in action, check out the three instances I maintain:\nevents.indieweb.org\n  events.oauth.net\n  oktadev.events\nYou can install Meetable on Heroku in about 5 minutes using the Heroku Deploy button! It even has a little installer so you can quickly install it on shared hosting as well!\nIf you have any ideas for additional features, please let me know! The best way is to open an issue on GitHub, and if you see an existing issue that sounds like something you want, please comment or upvote it!",

Meetable will hide the URL until 15 minutes before the event starts, and it will disappear again after the event is over.</p>\n<img src=\"https://aperture-media.p3k.io/aaronparecki.com/e94d2afbe6c396773c5d8e4e381cc28bfc41364273658f1586e0d46eff99859d.png\" alt=\"\" /><p>Before the event starts, you'll see a note that the meeting link will be revealed 15 minutes before the event.</p>\n<img src=\"https://aperture-media.p3k.io/aaronparecki.com/741d3cacc28a6c12ba0b0fac83f3167522df332578abf3cc76406391d1c11a8e.png\" alt=\"\" /><p>Once the event is less than 15 minutes away, the event page shows the join link.</p>\n<img src=\"https://aperture-media.p3k.io/aaronparecki.com/1f4a859d166a71a687891d0a8a5e39d1585df28ac23d2a63a38d94ac169b65c0.png\" alt=\"\" /><p>This works regardless of what meeting platform you're using since all it's doing is conditionally showing a URL!</p>\n<h3>Built-In Zoom Scheduling</h3>\n<p>We give IndieWeb event organizers the option of using a shared IndieWeb Zoom account to host meetings. (Event organizers are always welcome to use whatever platform they choose, but we make this available thanks to our <a href=\"https://opencollective.com/indieweb\">community sponsors</a> in case organizers want to use it.)\u00a0</p>\n<p>Since Zoom has skyrocketed in popularity as well has had some pretty major issues around zoombombing when being used for public events like this, it's become a lot more important to use unique meeting IDs and passwords for each event, whereas before we could get away with the lazy approach of using the permanent meeting ID on the account. This has lead to a lot more manual work by organizers when planning an event to go an log in and create a scheduled meeting. So I added a feature to Meetable which will use the Zoom API to automatically create a scheduled meeting at the right time for the event, and set the meeting URL to the zoom link!</p>\n<p>Now when you create a virtual event in Meetable, you have a checkbox you can check which will go create a scheduled Zoom meeting for you!</p>\n<img src=\"https://aperture-media.p3k.io/aaronparecki.com/0b0af8db400ec15a5fc5dffed4598a2eaba90da6cb51e2074d240fd16c1e596d.png\" alt=\"\" /><p>Then 15 minutes before the event starts, the link will be shown on the page! As the organizer, you can log in to the Zoom account and you'll see the scheduled event in the Zoom app.\u00a0</p>\n<img src=\"https://aperture-media.p3k.io/aaronparecki.com/d9c28dd589b6e16c0a885d9453b092e5e577a41883c479539f5c51fc74a4992f.png\" alt=\"\" /><p>Since Zoom includes the password in the link itself, it's still one click to join the meeting this way!</p>\n<p>That's about it! I hope you enjoy the new features, and let me know if you're using Meetable yourself!</p>\n<p>If you'd like to see Meetable in action, check out the three instances I maintain:</p>\n<ul><li><a href=\"https://events.indieweb.org\">events.indieweb.org</a></li>\n  <li><a href=\"https://events.oauth.net\">events.oauth.net</a></li>\n  <li><a href=\"https://oktadev.events\">oktadev.events</a></li>\n</ul><p>You can install Meetable on Heroku in about 5 minutes using the <a href=\"https://github.com/aaronpk/Meetable#meetable\">Heroku Deploy</a> button! It even has a little <a href=\"https://aaronparecki.com/2020/01/18/7/meetable-updates\">installer</a> so you can quickly install it on shared hosting as well!</p>\n<p>If you have any ideas for additional features, please let me know! The best way is to <a href=\"https://github.com/aaronpk/Meetable/issues\">open an issue</a> on GitHub, and if you see an existing issue that sounds like something you want, please comment or upvote it!</p>"
