Stuff from my show and ask show and tell

Phaser?

  • Joe used phaser to make a space invaders game, it was straightforward.

WordPress REST API?

Chrome Browser Extensions?

  • for sharing posts outside a social network (Chrome). Sounds like it worked well.
  • for highlighting text being persisted between visits (Firefox). Interested in getting people helping with it.

http2?

datastores?

  • Ryan uses something called mysql
  • Neo4j is cool - comes with its own graphical ui and a religion
  • Rethink DB is interesting

Anyone built anything with NFC?

  • Ruth, for putting her car into “car mode”.
  • Jamie, did some work into decoding the oxford bus tickets. Could read the last two journeys from the card.
  • Also, what even is NFC? Near Field Communication

Erlang?

This?

Hi :smilie_glasses:

Yes I had heard of the wordpress rest api, it got a lot of buzz last autumn - sorry I was late the party (I still can't think of a good use case tho...)

I thought adding cloudflare auto put https on my blog, but it hasn't - I am looking into it

Datastores: Firebase - not just a datastore but an eco system from google - super cool, might do a show & tell at some point.

NFC, to put my 'phone' into car mode - I had a chip in the car and touched my phone on it when I got in the car and it went on silent etc... it was a few years ago and just a quick thing done with a native android app - I might still have the phone at home and can check.

Everyone is talking about Elixr...

I'm sorry I didn't say any of these things I'm really shy
