    Deploying Your Web App…What Could Go Wrong?

    Congratulations! You’ve got yourself a nice little World-Wide Web site. Now it’s time to deploy it for everyone to enjoy through their World-Wide Web browser. Easy, right? WRONG! Deploying web apps today is the portal to madness and pain, with many levels of misery awaiting as you descend into the depths of Hades. Or…if you play it right, it’s little more than the press of a button. Let’s talk about that in this our Season 2 finale of Just a Spec.

    Your Static Just Zapped Me

    And Lo, There Was ARPANET (Baby Internet!)

    How did the Internet first begin? Why was it developed at the Advanced Research Projects Agency? Where was it initially launched at the end of the 1960s? Is it pronounced r-OO-ter or r-OW-ter?? These and other hard-hitting questions are answered as Jared & Ayush take a deep dive into the birth of humanity’s global computer network…with a dash of 90s nostalgia thrown in for good measure.Hosted by Jared White & Ayush and produced by Intuitive FutureLinks & Show Notes: Follow Just a Spec on MastodonThe Spicy Web & That HTML BlogEpisode 15: The Plumbing That Makes the Web MovePacket switching (Wikipedia)The first Internet connection, with UCLA's Leonard Kleinrock (YouTube)How the Internet Was Invented: Part 1 (YouTube)How the Internet Came to Be | Part 2 (YouTube)Did the U.S. Government Invent the Internet? | History (YouTube)How the Internet was born: The network begins to take shape (The Conversation)The Internet Review (born in 1996, reborn in 2024)1989 Networking Poems!

  5. The Browser Wars & an Uneasy Peace

    The Browser Wars & an Uneasy Peace

    It’s been a wild, wild ride getting from the anything goes origin story of the mainstream web—anyone still remember “Netscape Navigator” and “Trumpet Winsock”?—to today’s carefully-curated experience in the age of Interop and using GitHub to achieve spec consensus.But the relative calm we enjoy today when it comes to progress and feature parity across browser engines perhaps doesn’t quite tell the whole story…there are still threats to an open web which works well for all, protects our privacy, and guards us from bad actors.In this episode, we look back at the history of the web browser—touching on such memorable moments as the & tags, DHTML with the launch of JavaScript, and the arrival of responsive design for mobile as well as desktop—while attempting to learn from history so that we’re not doomed to repeat it.Hosted by Jared White & Ayush and produced by Intuitive FutureLinks & Show Notes: Follow Just a Spec on MastodonThe Spicy Web & That HTML BlogWikipedia Links:Netscape NavigatorInternet ExplorerIE for MacDHTMLFirefoxSafariChromeResponsive DesignSir Tim Berners-Lee on threats to the open web (as reported by The Internet Review)

    Pendulum Swings & 2023’s State of JS

    Whoa, there was one more “State of” survey from 2023 to mine for content! Who knew? Yes, the results are in, and we talk about them…but more broadly, our feelings about the state of web frameworks in our industry and the much-ballyhooed pendulum swing back to server-side rendering and HTML-first techniques (though the rate of change is perhaps not what we might wish for).

  7. How Many Books Could ePub Pub if ePub Could Pub Books

    How Many Books Could ePub Pub if ePub Could Pub Books

    What if you could take HTML & CSS, package them up in a file, and publish that file as a singular artifact? That's essentially what ePub is. (ePUB? EPUB?) With Ayush's real-world experience publishing e-books, we are guided through understanding more about this important (and sometimes overlooked) spec. Alas, the devil's in the details, and we get into many of those details here on today's episode of Just a Spec.Hosted by Jared White & Ayush and produced by Intuitive FutureLinks & Show Notes: Follow Just a Spec on MastodonThe Spicy Web & That HTML BlogEPUB file format (Wikipedia)Asciidoctor publishing toolchain

    From Frameworks to Using the Platform with Elise Shaffer

    When you've spent a good portion of your career as a web developer utilizing CSS processors & frameworks, what would lead you to embrace vanilla techniques and modern CSS features? This is the question in the air as we welcome our first ever guest to the show, Elise Shaffer. Elise walks us through her journey learning full-stack development via frameworks like Rails and Tailwind, and then more recently enjoying the freedom and simplicity of web platform features on the frontend. It's a celebration of doing more with less with Just a Spec.Hosted by Jared White & Ayush and produced by Intuitive FutureLinks & Show Notes: Follow Just a Spec on MastodonThe Spicy Web (vanilla CSS course) & That HTML BlogElise Shaffer: Website  / Ruby on Rails PodcastEpisode 513: Modern Rails Apps with Ayush NewatiaOpen PropsTailwind v4's CSS-first configCUBE CSSVideo tutorial by Kevin Powell
