Designing for mobile-first in frontend development is fun... Until you come across mobile devices that for some reason have a viewport width less than 365 pixels. In some cases, they completely break CSS and you have to deal with edge cases. Why don't companies make phones with a viewport standard?

With the growth of luarocks maybe we should start advocating for internationalization in larger Neovim plugins? I think it'd be quite amazing.
You could throw a lua lib like github.com/kikito/i18n.... in your project and make a more accessible plugin than ever before 🎉

I'll never stop yapping out the jujutsu VCS. It's such a good tool and has entirely replaced Git for me, tbh. Even for the most simple of operations I find jj to be much more ergonomic. You also get the op log for free! :D

I'd like to take a moment to appreciate FOSS. For all the craziness that goes on in communities every day the fact that we can all reap the benefits of freedom in both senses of the word is really remarkable. After using FOSS for several years I've really forgotten this simple fact.

I personally find the #neovim 0.12 plugin manager to be severely overhyped. It's great to have a standard interface for more sophisticated wrappers to step in, but it's still very basic. Users will end up on a wrapper plugin anyway. The best thing vim.pack is good for is bootstrapping other code.

Github OAuth is amazing. In the oauth data, username is called "nickname", and the nickname is called "name". definitely did not cause any headaches :p

Starting work on native support in Lux for Luanox's API. It's so much more efficient than luarocks.org's, allowing you to do package search server-side, pull metadata about individual packages (instead of pulling a massive manifest file) and no weird stuttering or delays on the server. Excited!

Give the luanox site a quick test run over on our beta: luanox-beta.neorg.org 🚀 🚀

Hooked up all the logic to the page for API keys.
I'll be releasing the page for beta testing to the public soon. It'll be a big test for the OAuth flow and key generation code :D

Alright, settings page is fully designed and ready to roll 🔥
This one will definitely need further touch-ups before the final release, but I'm happy with it as is for now :)
Next up, the page that generates API keys 🚀

Alright, the MVP package page is ready 🚀
I'm already done with the backend endpoints, which are much more convenient to use over luarocks.org, and they sure as hell don't encode the API key in the URL itself ☠️
I guess the next natural step is to create a "legacy" API which is luarocks-compatible

Putting in my full effort into finishing Luanox so it can finally hit production. First off, I revamped the landing page!
Things left:
- Ask the user for email if OAuth didn't provide it
- Search functionality
- Package view page
- Plenty of touchups and more API endpoints
Exciting stuff ahead 🚀

Amidst all the projects I'm working on I decided to dedicate some time to Luanox - a more modern alternative to luarocks.org
We've had quite a few run-ins with the site misbehaving (as well as being slow) and so we're working on a sister site that will work in tandem with the main luarocks site :)

Lux update: I've been generally away and working on some private projects, but Marc's been creating a bunch of commits and fixes to Lux, so I'll be enumerating his work and showing it off in future posts!
It's high time that I return to writing some open source :)

I'm about to do the unthinkable - install Neovim nightly.
I've been all about the stability for the past 9 months but I think it's time to move over to the unstable world for a bit again :)
Hoping this will rekindle my passion for Neovim as well as give me a playing field for the upcoming lux.nvim

I've recently been wondering about what Neovim features I'd love to see most that aren't present, and it's definitely:
- Minibuffers (many smaller buffers in a big buffer)
- Keybind namespaces (to allow overriding of all of Neovim's keybinds)
- Native luarocks support
- Minibuffers (many smaller buffers in a big buffer)
- Keybind namespaces (to allow overriding of all of Neovim's keybinds)
- Native luarocks support

It always baffles me how it feels like I haven't uploaded in 2 weeks but I check the dates and it's several months.
I'll try to fill up a backlog of videos tomorrow, edit them in the following days, and go from there! I would also like to become a sort of news source for things going on in Neovim.
