Fix Plex transcoding HDR videos very slowly when burning subtitles in at the same time

This workaround should no longer be necessary with newer Plex versions: https://forums.plex.tv/t/subtitle-burn-in-improvement-test-build/884481

Strictly Frameworks

Abstracted Editors

These use separate document structures instead of HTML, some are more modular libraries than full editors

Deploying Elixir's Phoenix Framework on Dokku.

Deploying Phoenix on Dokku

Worked 2015-09-08 for Phoenix 1.0.1 on Dokku 0.3.25.

These instructions assume you've set up Dokku. If not, go find a tutorial for that part. My notes for setting it up on Digital Ocean.

On your local machine, in the app's repo

I imagine each of these chapters being about 2,000 words, making the whole book about the size of a small novel. For comparison, articles in large papers like the New York Times average about 1,200 words. Each topic gets whatever level of detail I can fit into that space. For simple topics, that's a lot of space: I can probably walk through a very basic, but working, implementation of the IP protocol.

Folder Structure

Please note

While this gist has been shared and followed for years, I regret not giving more background. It was originally a gist for the engineering org I was in, not a "general suggestion" for any React app.

Typically I avoid folders altogether. Heck, I even avoid new files. If I can build an app with one 2000 line file I will. New files and folders are a pain.
