   Effective no non-sense software

   I used Qualcoder to code 100 hours of public hearings transcripts and I found it a very pleasant experience. The workflow is intuitive and quick. Even though some transcripts went over 150.000 characters, I was using about 50 codes, and have transcripts with over 100 different coded segments, the program remained stable. Using the | character in the search field allows for the use of multiple keywords at once, which was very effective. The report function allows you to produce overviews of interview segments per code and various kinds of statistical analysis, which can be integrated with R-Studio. Many thanks to Dr. Colin Curtain for the development and software support.

   👍 Pros:    Active community|Completely free and open source|Very stable|Intuitive workflow|Integration with r-studio

   👎 Cons:    .pdf coding requires turning pages in file

   The best open source alternative to paid CAQDAS

   QualCoder is one of the best CAQDAS I have used not just because it is free and open source but also because of the functionalities and constant improvements.

   🏁 Competitors: ATLAS.ti, NVivo

   👍 Pros:    Developer is responsive to feedback/requests and makes improvements|Easy to use|Advanced features

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use|Intuitive|Easy merge of projects

   👎 Cons:    Only two hierarchies allowed for codes

• Scratching the Itch, Paying the Debt: How Community Keeps Legacy Open Source Projects Alive

  Every developer has that one project that started as a personal solution and unexpectedly found a life of its own. For me, that was FastKML, a library I built in 2012 to “scratch my own itch.” I needed to embed maps into a website, and at the time, KML was the de facto standard for visualizing geospatial data on the web. GeoJSON existed but was still in its infancy and unsupported by OpenLayers, which was then the... - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• OpenStreetMap's software ecosystem and tools

  Unlike commercial products like Google Maps, OpenStreetMap does not have an "official" map library that you are required to use. Among the most popular OSM map libraries for the web are Leaflet, which is the default map viewer on openstreetmap.org, and OpenLayers, which is considered more powerful but has a steeper learning curve. Alternatives like MapLibre have SDKs for web, Android, and iOS. Other popular map... - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

  You can host .pmtiles files (Protomaps tile archives) entirely on GitHub Pages and consume them using OpenLayers. This post shows how to:. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• My Second Year as a Developer Advocate: A Journey Through Different Conferences

  Our talk, “Open Source Mapping Library Shoot Out,” focused on comparing popular open-source mapping libraries like MapLibre GL JS, Leaflet, and OpenLayers, helping developers make informed decisions about the tools they use. This was my first time presenting at a third-party conference, but having my co-worker by my side made the experience less daunting and allowed me to focus more on delivering the content... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Zooming User Interface (ZUI)

  You probably know this, but in Google Maps at least, you can use browser zoom (ctrl/cmd +/-) to change the size of labels without zooming into the actual map. ------ Speaking of maps, I got to work a fun zoom project a few years ago: https://map.fieldmuseum.org/ We used https://openlayers.org/ and thought long and hard about how to best handle zooming and variable levels of information density & visual hierarchy.... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
