Recently, I slefhosted "actual budget" in my server.

It is really good software for managing personal finance.

also i built custom wake on lan page for turning on to home PC for remote work

I always worried about security problem, So i tried apply mTLS to Caddy proxy. it works for me.

p12 certificates working greate.

My wife also using this Wake on Lan tool every day. She learned how to use RDP over ssh tunneling from me

I really love it.

In this year i tried make some note with html

I also posted in hn (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43358914)

I think if the browser provides more nice file saving solution the standalone html app will be more powerfull

Try `source ,prj.sh` and find your commands with `,<tab>`. print use of command with `type ,command`.

I'm enjoying this way. I'd appreciate it if you could also share how to use it.

Would I be able to store and edit this type of note on Google Drive? I like to keep documents in the cloud so I can access and edit them from anywhere, like Google Docs. But I don't think Drive can actually open html files, despite working entirely inside the browser.

On my dropbox, I was able to modify and share it on the web or apps. It was not saved.

When I opened html on the file app on my iPhone, js didn't run, so I could only see it

I don't think it's perfect in many ways.

I'm curious, somehow I remebered as JS not getting executed when opening a html file from filesystem, but clearly that isn't the case since this works. Did this change? Maybe I'm just misremembering

These days, local html seems to be running javascripts.

If you send html to Telegram, the preview will not run js when the recipient opens it. I think Android and IOS work differently.

I really like this, for two reasons:

1) I’ve been getting sick of Jekyll and using it to write, because I find all the work of managing images tedious.

2) my first name is Nash, so this feels like it was made for me. :)

I hope this was a good gift for you. ;)

Nice work! I’ve built a research prototype called Webstrates (webstrates.net) and recently created a local-first version: MyWebstrates (https://github.com/Webstrates/MyWebstrates).

I just tested your note on it, and it works nicely.

Here’s what I did: I copied the HTML of Nash, went to https://my.webstrates.net, created a new blank webstrate, opened Developer Tools, and replaced the entire DOM with the Nash HTML. Now the content persists across reloads.

To enable real-time collaboration, run this in the console:

webstrate.addSyncServer('sync.webstrates.net')

Then share the URL: https://my.webstrates.net/?s/<document-hash>@sync.webstrates...

Now it’s live-editable with others!

Webstrates works by storing and syncing changes to the DOM.

With the chance of killing my sync server, here's a Nash note on MyWebstrates: https://my.webstrates.net/?s/41W5owzLg94wDQAin4yJXGnFyKWN@sy...

Wow, this is really cool.

I should remember it later and study more.

Yes, before I wrote the post on HN, I shared it with my local community and they told me about the same two features.

I think those two services are more appropriate for the name "Note".

For my project, I should have used Page or Document for the project name.

Indeed, that one would be more descriptive. At first I thought that the project is a joke about pretend-discovering that you can create a web page without tools other than a text editor, and without embedding external resources, similar to vanilla-js.com. I wonder whether "note" is readily understood as "a document edited in a WYSIWYG editor" by some, possibly because it is called that way in some software.
yevgenyhong · a year ago
It's because I didn't think hard enough when I named it. I should have described it as a document with a built-in editor.
