caprine VS stdVBA

If you have access to the source, package.json will have several entries for electron packages. Example.

Second was a small CSS change in a popular project, Caprine. I really had a long back and forth with the maintainer about two seemingly simple changes in a style sheet and I realized I should have been linting my code changes and I learned how to find the css elements I meant to target, it was a small step forward. https://github.com/sindresorhus/caprine/pull/1933 You can still see the remainder of a bunch of requested changes.

The second issue that I wanted to take on I wanted to upgrade from a markdown change like in my first PR. In this second PR I set out to find a small code change to make. After staring at the issue board for an hour or two I finally came across one that I was surprised was not taken. I found this open source Facebook messenger app called Caprine. This was and still is really cool to me, the opportunity to work on something that was so well put together and much larger than my previous project.

Caprine - Nezvanična Facebook Messenger aplikacija za Windows, macOS i Linux - Electron, TypeScript, CSS

I too have faced issues with it on Firefox in the past and moved on to an open source application called Caprine. Works pretty well on Windows/MacOS/Linux.

There in an open source program for Linux/Windows, called Caprine, it's on GitHub ( https://github.com/sindresorhus/caprine ). It has also a portable version for Windows on https://portapps.io , if you are on a machine that's managed by the company you work for (it's like that for me). It's like the official Messenger app for the desktop, but Messenger came out later.

There's an alternative Messenger Client : Caprine

If you absolutely have to use Facebook Messenger, perhaps you could try a free and open-source client like Caprine, which is for desktop, but there was another one for mobile as well, I just don't remember the name of it (as I personally don't use it / have the need to use Facebook Messenger).

I never actually "solved" this, but I switched to Caprine and I'm no longer having any problems. It actually works much better than the official app (it lets you send audio files, etc).

I do RPA from VBA personally using IAccessiblity. See stdAcc (https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA/blob/master/src/stdAcc.cls) and an example (https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA-examples/tree/main/Example...)

You could have just treated everything as variant correct? That's what we do here: https://github.com/sancarn/stdVBA/blob/master/src/stdLambda....

The responses I got was a mix. Some businesses didn't take me seriously because the main language I used was VBA. Some businesses claimed I was too eager and I "didn't have a life". No one seemed to care about the achievements I had made in the languages, like building a DSL in VBA, or this electron app. I did eventually get a job in another engineering firm though, where I spend 90% of my time to this day programming.

Really depends what you actually want to do and how neat (or fast) you want your code to be too... I typically use stdEnumerator and stdLambda from stdVBA.

Sometimes, though more of a library / tool developer here. See stdVBA or stdVBA-examples

That said it is effort. After building stdLambda which brings lambda syntax to VBA, I can tell you that error handling in this class is still trash. It's just a lot of effort to write good error messages, and handle all errors correctly. Still definitely an item on the TODO list, but will it ever be a priority? idk

Otherwise this library poses as an example of how to use stdVBA libraries. Libraries used in this project: stdEnumerator, stdArray, stdCallback, stdCOM, stdICallable, stdLambda, stdRegex.

If you want a solution though see stdSettings. There are both system and user settings. Users are bound by their domain, so should work across organisations :)

Use stdVBA's stdAcc:

Explaining code in such a way that it codes the correct thing is pretty awful though... Let's try to do that for stdTimer.
