Volkara Comprehensive productivity application with task management, time tracking, and decision-making tools.

Hey everyone! I'm excited to share my first product release as a solo developer! It's called Volkara, and its a #local-first, #ADHD friendly productivity app. I made with it with #Svelte and #Postgres + #PGlite and really hope it helps anyone who struggles like I
do!

As with a lot of the information around LLMs, I wonder how much they're actually used in production environments

I'll have to give this another shot too. It worked when I tried with lexical because the typescript types were exhaustive

No problem!
I think my mistake when I got started was not really understanding the benefits or purpose of the borrow checker in the first place. I just really wanted to learn Iced and got lost in the blazing fast πŸ’₯ hype.

"i asked grok" "i asked chagpt" yeah well I asked a rare books librarian and they found things I didn’t even know I was looking for, while answering questions about provenance

Incredibly frustrating. I actually appreciate how bad chatgpt is at rust and FSharp because I end up having to learn my through the problems I'm asking them to solve.

Oh interesting. I'll have to observe how llms make me feel. Half the time I'm asking chatgpt to help me with rust's borrow checker

Do you mean for people that generate entire codebases with llms?

Lexical An extensible text editor framework that does things differently

I've asked Claude for a couple of bindings for lexical.dev in an Elmish React project. At the time I was just getting started with Fable and F# and ended up writing a lot of them from scratch.

LLMs | ReScript Language Manual Documentation for LLMs

AI has to get new material somewhere. I wanna say there are directives that let llms crawl your site. This is the most exhaustive I've seen:

The fact that this is a three year old post and still so cool is remarkable. I genuinely think Fable is one of the greatest things ever. Plus writing #fsharp bindings feels like a good use case for llms

checkout what #fsharp and #fable can achieve together! visit fable.io to see supported target languages like JS (and more), and also checkout the awesome "vite-plugin-fable" if you feel like chaining fully with the awesome @vite.dev ecosystem and tooling. F# is awesome also for FE dev πŸ¦” + πŸ‰
