[Ekinsu]
👋 Hi everyone! I am Ekinsu and UX/UI designer. I wonder will the workshop be related to dev functions only.

Are you coming to IndieWebCamp Düsseldorf?
#
capjamesg
Or the Front End Study Hall, which is today?
#
[Ekinsu]
yes, I am planning to come but I have doubts about that because I don't know coding at all 😄 So will it be like a developer gathering event? or what are we going to do?
#
[tantek]
IndieWebCamps are for all levels and all curiosities!
#
[tantek]
Ekinsu, take a look at https://indieweb.org/IndieWebCamps/Attending to get an idea of what it is like to attend & participate. There will be lots of discussions that are user-centric.

capjamesg[d]: I just added a /nope page to my own site thanks to this one. I also added a /yep page, which is probably somewhat redundant sitting next to /nope but I've done it anyway 🤷 😆

capjamesg[d]: https://fyr.io/yep - it's a first revision and I ran out of time adding things but the basics are there
#
capjamesg
ryokagriffin[d] So I’m not allowed to sell you a smart speaker? 😭
#
ryokagriffin
Haha nope. I have a "dumb house" out of choice 🙃

pages << also example of a /yep page: https://fyr.io/yep
#
Loqi
ok, I added "also example of a /yep page: https://fyr.io/yep" to the "See Also" section of /page https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=94940&oldid=94928
#

pages << another /nope example: https://fyr.io/nope

ok, I added "another /nope example: https://fyr.io/nope" to the "See Also" section of /page https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=94941&oldid=94940

I'm trying to think of a word that describes pages like "now", "wander", "about", "nope" and so on that I can use as the menu heading I can put all these pages under. Current top of the list is just "about" with a sub menu that links to those kinds of pages. Maybe "meta" and include changelog and ideas and stuff under that.
#
ryokagriffin
Any other ideas?

Good options. Another I thought of was "explore"

aaronpk, if they're signed-in with IndieAuth, you can even use their likes / responses as an indicator of which other posts to show them (that they haven't interacted with yet) :)

How can I improve the layout of my blog post pages (i.e. https://jamesg.blog/2024/05/07/moments-of-joy/)? I'm trying to experiment with design so any feedback that I could use as a springboard would be appreciated!
#
[Ros]
[capjamesg] Maybe some others have some ideas. I notice that I don’t as I don’t think my attunement is still in budding stage. I did want to say I find your blog easy to read with the narrow columns
