    (spoiler: its XSLT) I've been working on a little demo for how to avoid copy-pasting header/footer boilerplate on a simple static webpage. My goal is to approximate the experience of Jekyll/Hugo but eliminate the need for a build step before publishing. This demo shows how to get basic templating features with XSL so you could write a blog post which looks like My Article some content hello hello Some properties which set this approach apart from other methods: - no build step (no need to setup Jekyll on the client or configure Github/Gitlab actions) - works on any webserver…

    I built a web-based app for building websites. The main unique features are: 1. The ability to copy and paste any HTML and CSS into the editor with no limits. I was never able to find another app that could do this without some form of limitation. 2. CSS filtering, which means you can click on an element to view and edit the CSS selectors and rules that apply to that element alone. In many cases I've found CSS naming conventions like BEM to become irritating at certain scales, so this is an alternative solution. This part of the app needs some more development work but the concept is there.…

    Hi HackerNews, It’s Etienne CTO of dev-tools.ai. We are launching our product today and wanted to share because we think it might help folks here. Do you ever have broken selectors in your UI tests? Are you tired of maintaining them? We have thought about this issue and come up with a solution. We have created a Python SDK for Selenium that allows you to visually identify elements (using machine learning under the hood). Since our technology uses the visual appearance of elements and ML, it is more resilient than XPaths or pixel perfect match and should help you get rid of broken selectors.…
