I think Splitons is a good example of an App using rightly Local storage combined with AppCache : splitons.com

It keep tracks of expenses offline and sync states when you have connectivity again.


Talking about self-hosting blog, I am surprise nobody mentioned Bludit. I left Wordpress for Bludit a while ago and I am really happy.

I even wrote an article about it : http://softwarebythomas.com/blog/post/Why-I-left-wordpress-f...!


That link seems to lead to a 404.


It is because it didn't included the !

Argh!


Hehe; no worries. You do make a compelling case in the post.


I wish there was a good javascript library to handle table (filtering, sorting, paging, ...). The best I found so far was datatable, but it is not perfect.


https://handsontable.com/ is pretty awesome.


I am not very familiar with datatable; could you tell me more about its shortcomings?


IMHO I think Datatable doesn't have a nice and clean interface. For example, you can't just do table.AddRow({col1:'newCol1', col2 : 'newCol2'});

It is not always very clear on what plugin you should use for paging or sorting, column reordering. Then it become heavy to save a state using methods from different pluging.

So could be a lot simpler.

Still the best open source free js table on the market on my knowledge.


Interesting, I wonder when will youtube shut it down in a way or another...


Not sure what you're saying here. They're embedding Youtube videos which YT is perfectly fine with.


hi @Thomas_9. I'm using youtube's data api and player's api without any hacks. I actually following the api's rules and available api.


If it is basically youtube but you just remove ads, I tend to think they will react. But I admit this is a feeling more than a sure fact. I can't remember the name of the app that worked on top of a Google Api that was stopped in few hours...


I don't remove any ads - only static ads are displayed - no video "trailers" though.


They haven't shut down youtube-dl yet which allow downloads of only the audio track.


You can download the video as well, actually it does this by default, then strips out the audio (-x option). -k keeps the video file.


That's true, it doesn't download only the music track as my original wording implied.


OVH just does the job for me since years, cheap and reliable.


Is this project open source? I would love to see the code...


For me it is Splitons!

Splitons is a simple Offline web application to split costs between friends (www.splitons.com).

It has been a mobile first development using AngularJs, Bootstrap and font-awesome.

Splitons takes advantage of AppCache, websockets and local storage to provide the best user experience possible. There is a clear separation between the Ui and the service thanks to a simple reusable Api.

At this moment, the application takes care of about 150 projects, users are regularly providing feedbacks and thanks email. They really enjoyed not having to install another application and how easy it is to share a project.

Because it is an open source project (https://github.com/Paraintom/Splitons), one user sent me a pull request that I accepted to improve the Ui some months ago.

Please try and give me a feedback!


The website : www.splitons.com


I agree with this. I am using a dead simple todo list to keep track of these things : www.mytinytodo.net It is more than enough for me, I am really happy of it.


Nothing when I type the keyword C# ...


very nice article, thank you for sharing
