Inspiring Online

An online blog about inspiring work, both online and off. Built and managed by Tim Holman

I aim to hype up neat and new creations on the web, interesting code and design, art, typography, and really just all things that catch my eye. Providing a resource that can be both inspiring, and educational.

The blog itself is open source (which you can tell, reading this readme)... I'm aiming to make it easy for people to contribute, from fixing spelling mistakes, to making their own posts.

Edits

At the bottom of each post link is the option to edit! If you have anything to add to a post, or any typo's etc, fix them up and I'll add them in!

Proposals

If you have any hot links, open them up in a GitHub issue! If they're nice and recent, and fit the content, I'll write about them... of course, you could do that yourself if you feel so inclined!

Ideally new items fit the current topics written about (code, art, design, type, games etc)

Setup/Source

Inspiring online is running on the static site generator, hugo. To run inspiring.online locally, you'll need to:

  1. Clone the repository git clone [email protected]:tholman/inspiring-online.git
  2. Install hugo, brew install hugo
  3. run hugo serve

the-indie-web's Issues

Add Images to RSS Feed

This feature is important to me, especially with content that is a spotlight for other cool sites. If we were to do this, is there an official RSS compliant tag for an image? Or would we just add an img tag directly in the description section?

Dynamic Contributors List from GitHub API

It would be nice to keep the http://inspiring.online/contributors dynamically updated. This might add on too much complexity, but might be worth looking into.

GitHub API Docs for listing contributors
https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#list-contributors

Possible sub-issues with this

  1. I don't want to hit the API with each page load. I'm not sure how to go about writing to cache file with just JavaScript, I only know how to do it with PHP. Any ideas on keeping requests to the API down?
  2. This feature might take away from the spirit of this repo, which is to get people involved with contributing code. I could see the satisfaction in getting a pull request merged, and then going to update your status on the contributors page. That might be a fun and rewarding process for people.

If this isn't in line with the repo's direction, feel free to close. Just a thought!

Responsive nav

Gotta make that thing snap to the top after the screen gets too small.

Get rid of all browser non-native code

Hi,

I love the idea of an Open Source blog so much that I'm seriously thinking to contribute. Just I wonder why you chosen to use Ruby. I guess you're a Ruby fan but we could easily use only pure HTML/JS/CSS plus a markup language to achieve our goals. Maybe some templating... if really needed.

I know it's a matter of taste but since this project is about blogging (rather than coding) I think we should be as agnostic as possible to personal technological tastes. I won't install Ruby, bundle, jekyll and so forth, just to run a simple HTML page with a bit of templating; it's a pain. Please, note that it has nothing to do with how much I like or dislike Ruby itself (it's great, btw).

Are you absolutely convinced to mantain the actual software stack or would you like to discuss about simplifying it?

Thanks for your time and sorry for my english!

Regards,
Claudio Alessi

Attribution

So far its just been me posting. But it would be nice to have an "author" section in the post headers, and perhaps after the article as well.

No favicon!

Gotta get one of those. I guess we don't really have a brand. But we can figure that out!

Github link

I'm working on this at the moment. But I guess its important to let everyone know that they can edit/change pages on github. For spelling mistakes, or anything.
