#IndieWeb went with very hard filters aimed at value aligned dev community while educators had to fight against the myth of digital native and take people online for the first time. The tech stack and people power now coalescing. Makes me proud and hopeful.
@mistydemeo saw your bio on the bangbangcon speaker list! Thank you so much for work on old video games. I have to leave a browser open all times for Carmen San Diego... Kids can't seem to finish before power or internet connections fails.. Then back to gumshoe
That said if you are a dev with a little bit of teaching skills has to be huge market in, "So your bootcamp Comp/sci program trained you in Angular, and React but every job you can find needs PHP skills to handle a ten year old ecommerce site..take my class"
Switching up my learning tasks, will still get back to php 101 since I use @withknown but going to play in node first since there are few php learning resources and most learning sites out there said they will no longer support php courses.
Today in discussing use of an article tag for marking up note https://indieweb.org/note rather than a div...I learned article tag ISNT for long form writing but any stand alone content, and B etymology of article traces to this definition long before newspapers
Isn't that what a teacher wants? How would teachers answer the question: "Do you want your stdents work and metadata to be in one file you can read or have in separate files only a machine can read?"? That's what #IndieWeb can do for #OER movement.
Lynda.com has courses and we get free subscriptions. i have never taken a course on coding. I just copy, past, and google my way to greatness. Struggled to do with with PHP even though 95% of people I know use it for scripting and websites.
We built enough tools that can allow for full decentralization of tools, if you can publish HTML you can use #IndieWeb building blocks with the ability to syndicate across networks or readers... All because of a little metada included in the content of a webpage
I carried this LP all over the place in middle school. The irony and anger captured in late eighties early nineties hard core and punk revival. Love it, the musical version of
I only used #IndieWeb web stuff from 2014-2018 got more involved after looking into the standards used by #OER community... There really aren't any in use but plenty of people making academic careers defining vocabularies and specs no one will use.
That being said the social reader auttomatic building in WordPress is top in game. Looks like they just added a status update section and you can reply in context..as a comment not reply post. But great discovery and UI
Just got so annoyed I could not find A, agreed upon standards for metadata in #OER, B, the curation tools did not expose their backend (while claiming open mantra) and C too many people hopping on complicated apps or front end design frameworks rather than HTML first.

And it doesn't have to be Known to Known.. Webmentions is a W3C standard, makes the web our network. Webmentions do work and look better with microformats. This is why #IndieWeb struggles in WordPress. It is amazingly hard to add properties to HTML templates and not have other theme developers or plugins step on them. Part of the reason I walked away. If a C
@littleiffel So I went with a few static pages for my main site (it actually is a working blog with an h-feed) and then added @withKnown for stream. Over time I hope to move functionality of @withKnown to my main site ( or make Known an engine you don't see)
Today's #IndieWeb lesson on php spent trying to ask what key words should I use to find a site that will teach me how to put data saved in a form on a webpage. Hoping now have tools to begin my search to find the learning tools I need tomorrow...or just use javascript
