Wordpress Customization for Open Planet Culture

WordPress Customization for Open Planet Culture

I am just wrapping-up a second sprint for a customized WordPress site called Open Planet Culture: Re-Thinking Globalization.

The code is on Gitlab and unfortunately I had to make private the theme as its got hard-coded Mapbox API keys.

It’s been an interesting experience pushes the envelope for myself and WordPress and I’ve tried to use a lot of the latest trends in web-development.

An Open Source Hardware Personal Computer Made in Silicon Valley, USA ?

I want to run Ubuntu or Redhat and have the mainline device drivers support for commercial peripherals.

I do not want Raspberry PI or Beaglebone, I want mainline PC architecture.

I do not want a Maker gadget or a DIY toy.

I know there is the high end Open Compute project, and this is…

Composer, Gitlab and Roots for WordPress Plugin & Theme Development

I want to split out my custom plugins and themes from my Roots repo so I can make it private, I just dont trust Ansible Vault enough, and there is always the chance of forgetting the key and committing it and putting it into the history.

I also want to manage the git repo’s via Composer and GIT i.e. gitlab and doing this was surprisingly complicated and not well documented.

Internet, Web & Mobile and the Biology of Addiction

The internet, web and mobile, especially social media, are built and used as an addiction.

Like a casino, or a drug, the mobile phone and web browser have become the gateway to an addicted lifestyle for a billion plus people. With current trends, this is only getting worse.

In other words, if you want to run a full data center, network, production system and you want a system that has been designed and built and TESTED in production already to work, you only have two options.

Phoenix and Elixir Development

I want to start my Phoenix Elixir FolkBot project and want to see if I can implement some of the new features today.

I should be simply using the latest release and upgrading them, and I might revert, but lets see what we can learn now.

Cover Your Arse with Jira Project & Task Management: Desktop & Mobile

For business and personal projects and task management I use the Australian company Atlassian’s Jira.

It’s totally possible to get lost in all sorts of complexity and setup with Jira and it can become a huge time sink.

Presumably this is why products like Wrike, Asana, Trello (now purchased by Atlassian), Basecamp are growing also.

Basic Jira

There are very, very many screens and views available,…

Bootstrap 4 Material Design in GPL

I am trying to focus on a single CSS framework for FolkBot and some implementations in distributions, binaries, products and SAAS.

There is a very excellent, non free, paid and premium theme, called Material Design for Bootstrap. It actually has a fremium kind of model. It has a complex license and business model and since I want complete freedom I have chosen another implementation.

Folkbot Drupal 8 Bootstrap based Custom theme

Like the web at large, the formerly Twitter Bootstrap base theme is now the de-facto standard, the go-to theme in Drupal.

The internet is increasingly being dominated by mega corporations, and the leading FLOSS projects are often coming from projects sponsored by them.

For instance the Zurb Foundation project is struggling and many of its ambitious branches are un-maintained, from the issues on…
