• Stdwin: Standard window interface by Guido Van Rossum [pdf]

  The other popular option for cross-platform UI apps was Tcl/Tk: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tk_(software) ...which even leaked into other language ecosystems like Python: https://docs.python.org/3/library/tkinter.html. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Vibe coding: Time Zone Clock

  ChatGPT understood the hardware and it's limitations, the touchscreen monitor and along with my requirements, we found and used Tkinter which runs on Python. The benefits were it was lightweight, no web stack, runs fast, no browser, no network dependency and customization options. What's really cool is I wanted to have a visual of this idea and requested ChatGPT to generate an image base on my idea and it gave me... - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Multi Client TCP Chat with Tkinter

  A TCP socket-based chat application allows multiple clients to communicate with a central server in real time. This tutorial walks through building a multi-client chat application using Python’s socket and threading modules for backend communication and Tkinter for a graphical user interface (GUI). This is a great project to learn about networking, concurrency, and GUI development. - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago

• Don't upload your PWA to the app stores

  I built Progressier to provide developers with the best possible browser-based PWA installation experience. And I can say, it's nearly as good as Google/Apple's app store installation experience. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• How to fix iOS push subscriptions getting terminated after 3 notifications

  That's it for me! Hopefully, now you know how to get around push subscriptions being canceled after 3 push notifications. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me here. - Source: dev.to / about 3 years ago

• Web push notifications coming to iOS this year

  When I made Progressier compatible with the desktop Safari update from last October, I had to rewrite a thing or two to put the request for permission inside a click event listener. Doesn't work otherwise. I'd be willing to bet mobile Safari will have the same requirement. Source: over 3 years ago

• Show HN: I made an indie app store alternative with a twist

  The twist is that although it does (part of) the job of an app store, it's not (nor aims to be) an app store. It's a script you add to your existing web app that makes it "self-distributing". Check it out: https://progressier.com. Under the hood, it leverages the concept of "PWA", but it goes further: 1. It creates an installation page for your app that looks like an app store listing. Demo example:... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago

• Does calling the image URL cost anything?

  With something like Progressier, you can set up a caching strategy that essentially says "cache all images located on firebase.whatever-the-url-is.com and never request it from the network after that". It would take approximately 2 minutes to set up -- no code required. Source: over 4 years ago
