pttrns VS git-sizer

• Ease of Use
  Pttrns offers a user-friendly interface allowing designers to quickly search and find design patterns for mobile and web apps.
• High-Quality Examples
  The platform provides high-quality, curated design examples from well-known apps, helping designers implement industry standards.
• Inspiration
  Pttrns serves as a source of inspiration for designers, showcasing a variety of design styles and approaches.
• Categorization
  Design patterns are well-categorized, making it easy for users to find specific UI patterns based on their needs.
• Up-to-date
  The platform regularly updates its library with new and trending design patterns, ensuring users have access to the latest designs.

Possible disadvantages

• Subscription Cost
  While some content is free, full access to Pttrns requires a subscription, which might not be suitable for all budgets.
• Limited Interactivity
  The examples are typically static images or screenshots, lacking interactive elements that could better demonstrate the user experience.
• Over-Reliance on Examples
  Designers might become overly reliant on the provided examples and may neglect creating original and innovative designs.
• Lack of Detailed Explanations
  The platform focuses more on showcasing finished designs and might not provide in-depth explanations behind design choices.
• Mobile-Centric
  Pttrns primarily focuses on mobile app design patterns, which might be a limitation for designers looking for web or other platform-specific patterns.

• Comprehensive Repository Analysis
  git-sizer analyzes many different dimensions of a Git repository including commit count, tree size, blob size, history depth, and reference counts, providing a holistic view of repository health and potential scaling issues.
• Easy to Use
  The tool is simple to run with minimal setup—just execute it within a git repository—and it produces clear, human-readable output that highlights potential problem areas without requiring complex configuration.
• Identifies Performance Bottlenecks
  It helps identify specific issues that could degrade Git performance, such as excessively large blobs, deep history, large trees, or too many references, which is valuable before migrating or scaling repositories.
• Open Source and Maintained by GitHub
  Being an official GitHub project, it benefits from credibility, community trust, and ongoing maintenance, and it is well documented with clear explanations of what each metric means.
• Useful for Pre-Migration Checks
  It's particularly helpful for teams migrating repositories to new platforms or consolidating repos, as it flags potential issues that could cause problems during migration or with hosting providers' limits.

Possible disadvantages

• No Automatic Remediation
  git-sizer only identifies and reports issues but does not offer any built-in tools or automated processes to fix problems like large blobs or excessive history depth—users must use separate tools like BFG Repo-Cleaner or git-filter-repo.
• Output Can Be Overwhelming for Beginners
  While detailed, the output includes many metrics and threshold levels that may be confusing for users unfamiliar with Git internals, requiring some learning curve to fully interpret results.
• Limited to Local Analysis
  The tool analyzes a local clone of the repository, so it requires users to have a full local copy of the repo (or at least enough history) to get accurate results, which can be time-consuming for very large repositories.
• No Real-Time Monitoring
  It functions as a one-time analysis tool rather than providing continuous or real-time monitoring of repository health, requiring manual reruns to track changes over time.
• Command-Line Only Interface
  The tool lacks a graphical user interface, which may be less accessible for users who prefer visual dashboards or are less comfortable with command-line tools.

• App or Software to organise a UI Pattern Library

  While I'm aware that there are current resources out there such as Mobbin or Pttrns, I have been taking my own screenshots for a while now and it would be great to be able to set up tags to categorise and organise these. Source: about 5 years ago

• Does anyone else find Behance and Dribbble absolutely useless?

  Https://pttrns.com/ is a similar site but the quality went down a bit. Source: about 5 years ago

• how to keep github repos small?

  Also there’s a cool project from GitHub you can use to help understand the size of git’s objects in your git repo https://github.com/github/git-sizer. This might help you determine what the best cloning strategy could be. Source: almost 5 years ago
