  • Jennifer came to HWC because she wanted to learn from people who already had websites

Tantek

  • http://tantek.com/
  • Video
  • i tried to work on 3 things. I got 2 and some fraction done
  • the 1st thing is trying to converge comment markup so we can do it consistently (twtr.io/11ZZQoJL0Co)
  • worked it out with a group of us and has updated code on wiki page
  • under comments-presentation
  • each comment should use p-comment h-cite (assuming they are from some other site) since your copy of the comment is really a copy of the text from someone else's site
  • if you're consuming comments this is structure you can rely on (twtr.io/11ZZeVYT7JR)
  • second thing was scoped styles which worked only in firefox
  • ... looking at post in its permalink it covers the whole page (intentionally)
  • the second thing I showed was scoped styles, which I had before on my site (twtr.io/11ZZhSwneE8)
  • but now I got it working in chrome and safari as well as firefox despite them not supporting it (twtr.io/11ZZk4xzLbH)
  • ... opening in chrome or safari, this works equivalently on the other browsers
  • ... those changes do not put any extra work on to the publishing, but is entirely inside the software
  • ... will document later my techniques
  • ... third item is working on mobile version of site
  • the 3rd thing I wanted to do was getting my site looking good on mobile, so lets see if this works (twtr.io/11ZZu1x6HPC)
  • my first goal was to get my homepage looking good on mobile - not wrapping URLs badly (twtr.io/11ZZzxKmHPD)
  • ... text is pretty readable no matter what kind of post
  • ... only improvements left are to get photos to be full bleed (all the way to the edge of the device

Sarah

Bryan

  • http://chreekat.net/
  • Video
  • added support for h-entry to the forum he was working on

  • h-entry for the comment, h-card and p-author dt- for dates and u- for photos (twtr.io/11Z_ZfhYNbo)
  • used glennjones.net/tools/microformats/ to check his microformats
  • microformats are now live: parsed example

Bret

  • http://bret.io/
  • Video
  • made a node.js module for parsing bearer tokens
  • with tests!
  • a micropub endpoint has to get a bearer token from a micropub client request (twtr.io/11Z_vhazKKV)
  • I made a node module for parsing bearer tokens that abstracts the complexities away (twtr.io/11Z_yHTCdQ0)

Kevin

  • http://kevinmarks.com/
  • Video
  • worked on indiecards
  • reworked it as a hovercard
  • designed to work in an iframe
  • he’s incorporated indiecards into noterlive.com
  • (aside: they’re not hovercards - hovercards are a very specific presentational effect in response to users *hovering* over something)
  • had to cache tantek.com
  • and thus caches cards in general now
