The author commented elsethread that they're well aware their blog is due for some love but refused to get distracted by yak shaving that until they had downpour itself shipped.
That seems pretty reasonable to me under the circumstances.
Looks really well done. The documentation was very well written. I don't have a use case at the moment but it was interesting reading through the documentation to see what is possible. The state management and replaying games seemed neat. I'm writing my own set of games and just thinking about making the system flexible enough for others to integrate with feels like a big undertaking. Cudos for the work you put in.
It kills me that this is the top comment which provides no substance to its claim. Personally, I love Spring Boot both at work and in my side projects. Can it be annoying if you get off the main path? Yes. Does it provide a bunch of useful things for most common web flows. Definitely.
Let's hear why you think we shouldn't be talking about it.
Mine takes about ~3 min per image, didn't do anything special. Left everything at default settings after my initial install (about 5 days ago). Not speedy but certainly not 15 min. Running on an M1 with 32gb ram.
I recently set it up with a variety of apps (frontend/backend) behind it. Where did you see it should only be a basic html app? Don't recall reading that in their documentation.
I just did a bit of research. They updated[0] their ToS a while back. At the time I asked[1] if people thought this change would apply to tunnels. Based on the answer to that I would say it's no longer prohibited, which is great.
Hope you enjoy your stay. I'm going on 8 years in the Netherlands (originally from the USA). The freedom my kids have here is a major reason we are still here. Biking everywhere is amazing. Work life balance and the ability to work part time is also a huge benefit over the US.
Thanks! I have been working on that style of writing some more. I have another story in that "universe" called Protos (https://xeiaso.net/blog/protos) that you may enjoy. I'm working on some more, but it's a very subtle kind of magick that you have to poke at from all angles simultaneously. It takes effort.
I'm sure I'll come up with something eventually, I might do one about spatial computing. That seems like it could be a fun topic for this kind of satire.
