This is my bulgarian bag. I feel like the handles won't last that long like this. Will wrapping duct tape or something around them increase their lifespan? Any other tips?

Hi people. I'm creating a system using HTMX
It's a server using clj-kit, which renders "components" using hiccup and HTMX based on the requests.
A component generator basically. But it also has some JSON APIs which return pure data.

The details don't matter. It just exposes REST APIs, user calls REST API with their own custom params and get their custom component.

The goal is so this can be used for progressive rewrite and enhancement of legacy systems, and the components to be usable in multiple systems, reducing work.
In order for the user of the system to be able to use these components, they should also add HTMX to their client, and call the service. for example

<div hx-get="https://component.service/componentx?data-url=https%3A%2F%2Fdata.source%2Fdata" hx-trigger="load">

This is the architecture I thought of. Is this ok? This HTMX article on security says it's not ok to call HTMX with external sources. So what is the best way you suggest to create such system?

I'm halfway through it already, but I would like to hear what others have to say and your suggestions. Maybe HTMX isn't the right choice at all? I felt like it is.

Thank you.

Hi!

I've never read any of Uncle Bob's books. But I have taken interest in "Clean Architecture" as it seems like a good solution to make mid to large sized projects simple to understand and maintain.

I think MVC gets too much coupling and fails at larger projects, same with n-tier. But I'm not sure about anything right now (software design is a very complicated problem after all).

So I was wondering if you friends who have used Clean Architecture in production can share your knowledge and experience with me about this design?

Is it actually good and worth investing in?

Footnote:

I'm especially weighing this architecture because Uncle Bob's writings are really hit and miss. I don't see him as a master or guru so I take everything he says with a grain of salt.

Hi.

I'm curious what architecture do you use for medium to large Clojure applications? MVC, Clean Architecture, N-tier?

What were your experience with them? What do you recommend?

I'm asking this question in general to discuss the common architectural patterns in Clojure, but I'm also creating a somewhat complex "micro" service with clj-kit and I'm interested in learning how to organize and architect it.

Convert Outlooks' horrendous .pst file to standard .vcf vCard and import to any vCard compatible client (your phone, radicale, thunderbird, etc.)

Why I made this?

I decided to move my whole org to ThunderBird to be free from forced proprietary formats. And I created this Java CLI app (Because Java had the java-libpst to work with PST files) to do it. I converted ~500 contacts successfully and we are free from Outlook at last.

This has worked for us, and I tried to make it as robust as possible. If you see any issues, please open an issue or PR.

LLM disclaimer: I used OpenCode + BigPickle to create this but I wouldn't call it vibecoded. I spent ~2 days on it so far and let the LLM help me. Hope it helps.

Hi guys. Just a heads up that Nym is total garbage. It has horrible, prototype-level apps. And the connection is so unstable. You'll be lucky if you connect at all. I used mullvad before and it would take 1-3s to connect. Nym takes at least 30s to connect, IF it connects at all.

Tge only reason I bought it was the very cheap price. But a cheap price isn't worth it if it's not even working.
