I'm moving from Tumblr to Dev.to!

Why?

VS Code Terminal Shell Integration (Windows)

To avoid “The terminal is awaiting input” and similar prompts, VS Code needs Terminal Shell Integration enabled and a supported shell.

Required VS Code settings (settings.json):

{ "terminal.integrated.shellIntegration.enabled": true, "terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.windows": "PowerShell 7", "terminal.integrated.profiles.windows": { "PowerShell 7": { "path": "C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\pwsh.exe" } } }

After changing this:

Close all terminals

Reload VS Code window

If the message still appears: You are likely using Windows PowerShell 5.1, which has unreliable shell integration.

Fix: install PowerShell 7 (one-time per machine): https://learn.microsoft.com/powershell

or:

winget install Microsoft.PowerShell

PowerShell 7 fully supports VS Code terminal integration and resolves command/input detection issues.

HTTrack is a free (GPL, libre/free software) and easy-to-use offline browser utility. It allows you to download a World Wide Web site from t

Issue: HTTrack sometimes fails to decompress (unzip) downloaded pages on jankoweb, resulting in corrupted binary output instead of HTML.

Observed error: "Error when decompressing" while fetching pages that appear to be gzip-compressed.

Attempted workaround (per forum suggestions): HTTrack → Set Options → Spider → Force HTTP/1.0

Rationale: Forcing HTTP/1.0 disables some server-side compression/transfer behaviors that may trigger decompression failures in HTTrack.

Status: Testing whether HTTP/1.0 prevents broken gzip responses from the server.

Contribute to jankoweb/useful.utils development by creating an account on GitHub.

GitHub’s default dashboard is mostly useless — it shows random activity from people you follow, “Top repositories” sorted by some mysterious popularity algorithm, and no clear overview of your own projects.

If you’d rather have GitHub open your personal repositories (sorted by last update) every time you visit github.com, you can fix that easily with a simple UserScript.
