Show HN is more for things that can be tried rather than things that can be read, take a look at https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

You can just post it without the prefix.

Got you, sorry. I had in the back of my mind, that guides / courses fall into that category too. But good to know :)

I am working on my text course about Deno (https://niklasmtj.de/deno/course/). With Deno 2.0 just right around the corner, I'm excited to get this course into the hands of possible new users. I really like how Deno does a lot of things better than Node. With a toolchain similiar to other modern language enviroments (e.g. Golang) it helps a lot not thinking about "What might be the hot package to use right now".

Right now I have 3/7 chapters ready and I am working on the 4th right now. It will be about Deno on the CLI, learning about the permission model, getting user input etc. creating a small CLI application as a single file binary (deno compile)

After abandoning a lot of smaller side projects for years now I wanted to push through and ship something that is not just some hours of work (read <3-4 hours). I learnt that I have a lot of fun writing about and trying to teach things that I'm interested in.

The typesafe standard library is such a nice feature. Deno is high on my bucket list for tools to try, although i've never had the chance to dive deep yet. Feels like Deno is the production-ready Bun and most companies will stick with Node.js none the less.

That's true. I'm a huge fan of the `std` lib. I also appreciate that it is even compatible with NodeJS projects, so I can use those helper functions in "legacy" projects as well.

the url imports is one the things I don't want.
niklasmtj · a year ago
There are also the `npm:`, `node:` and `jsr:` specifiers now. So you don't have to use the URL imports if you don't feel them.

Oh this is funny to see. I just posted a blog post talking about Email Aliases an hour ago without knowing about the Bitwarden announcement.

I would love to see aliases being promoted more and more by companies. In the end most companies want to get in touch with you via e.g. a newsletter. So why do they need exactly your private email and not just an email alias. In the end they're reaching the same person.

Where do you want to publish the course to?
niklasmtj · 2 years ago
That is actually to be discussed. I started thinking about putting it up on Udemy but in the meantime I was thinking that I might just put it in a .zip and just distribute it via gumroad. Or even use their video hosting platform.

If you have recommendations let me know!

The ins and outs of the Deno runtime. Since I want to build my first text/video course about it.

On the one side it could be a cool side project where I can help people getting their hands dirty with Deno and follow my passion on teaching interesting topics to folks. On the other side I want to push a project of myself over the finish line and maybe make a dollar or two with it.
