I got totally nerd sniped into adding features to ibex.desertthunder.dev because of PDS OS so I added a link to pdsos.wisp.place using the classic apple logo.

I've been making docs for my new projects with @svelte.dev (static with mdsvex, pagefind, unocss icons) and stuff like llms.txt, copy markdown, etc. should i make this a reusable starter/template? theme-wise its just google sans for headings, ibm plex sans for text, and a handful of colors

Ok @zeu.dev you did nerd snipe me with your post about the old YouTube channel UI. I'm making a dashboard for my home lab that resembles it with @semble.so bookmarks, the weather, and other nerd stuff

So in between mobile dev & PDS work the past few days I've been taking all the silly retro UI stuff and building a web component library. My favorite thing is the window that is moveable and resizable inside its container.
