I might write about anything ~ but mostly web dev stuff
Podcasts have become very popular in recent years. More and more people are listening to their favorite shows while on the go, exercising or just relaxing at home. But how could you keep up to date with all these popular podcasts without having to listen to them directly? That was the question I asked myself as I looked into the use of AI technology in web projects. Summarizing is something…
Podcasts zijn de afgelopen jaren enorm populair geworden. Steeds meer mensen luisteren naar hun favoriete shows terwijl ze onderweg zijn, aan het sporten zijn of gewoon thuis ontspannen. Maar hoe zou je nu op de hoogte kunnen blijven van al die populaire podcasts, zonder er direct naar te hoeven luisteren? Dat was de vraag die ik me stelde toen ik me verdiepte in het gebruik van AI/KI technologie…
Last summer we went on a family road trip in the USA with an RV. That was awesome! For fun and to keep everyone up to date at home, I wanted to create a travel blog ( rroadtrips.com ) with a map to show the route. I wanted to build something with Astro and was very time limited. 😅 So I was looking for a simple solution to display a map. Because Astro works with all kind of components/frameworks,…
Afgelopen zomer zijn we met een camper op rondreis gegaan door de VS... Te gek! 😎 Om thuis iedereen op de hoogte te houden wilde ik een reisblog maken ( rroadtrips.com ), met een kaart om de route te tonen. Ik wilde graag eens iets maken met Astro , een "static" site builder. Tegelijkertijd had ik er ook niet heel veel tijd voor vrijgemaakt. 😅 Dus ging ik op zoek naar een eenvoudige oplossing om…
TL;DR I’ve created a basic website for fun; topzender.nl . It contains lists of podcasts and radio stations (mostly Dutch). Built with Eleventy, updated using Cloudflare Workers and generated and hosted via Netlify. I just want to share a little bit about the process, as this was quite new to me. So get ready for the long story… 😀 Or scroll down for the list of used resources/inspiration. Why and…
My little side-project web app https://1tuner.com is still running, and it’s fun to see a small number of people using it around the world. But at work we don’t use 1tuner anymore unfortunately 😥. We have Sonos speakers now, so the radio playlist was no longer needed. New “problems” Of course, me myself & I was still using 1tuner to listen to the radio when biking to the office. But now and then…
1Tuner is a progressive web app that you can use to listen to online radio. And it allows you to plan your own ideal radio listening day, so the player switches between radio streams automatically. The app is pretty basic, but it changed while I was learning during development of it. In this article I will try to describe the process and decisions. The "problem" At the office, we always listened…
