    https://crossroad.page/ (1.74kb) routing, similar to React Router

    Seeing the direction React Router was taking (even before they started mixing things with data loading/management), I wrote a small alternative https://crossroad.page/ that only does routing but does it following modern React best practices:

    1kb is likely a lot more than what is shown here; I made a "tiny" but very complete React Router package which is very complete and minified+gzip it's just 1.8kb https://crossroad.page/
  • Not Another Framework

    The author claims to "learn JS/HTML", but the first example is importing a custom component called Link with who knows what inside, which I find especially ironic because I made a small library[1] for routing in React where links are just links:

  • Ask HN: What are you using for public documentation these days?

    I have an unfinished side project called Documentation Page:

    https://documentation.page/

    It's "unfinished" because I'd need to integrate payments and do all the accounting on my side (non-trivial as an individual living in Japan), but otherwise it's worked pretty well for my own projects.

    It parses your Github Repo (according to https://documentation.page/documentation#getting-started) to generate the website. It can be a single readme.md file (for smaller projects), a folder called "documentation", or you can configure it otherwise. Some examples hosted by Documentation Page:

    - statux.dev: simple single-page docs and website, menu config in https://github.com/franciscop/statux/blob/master/documentati.... Similar to form-mate.dev & vector-graph.com

    - react-test.dev: split into multiple pages, you specify the folder and it'll automatically merge the markdown files. See config https://github.com/franciscop/react-test/blob/master/documen...

    - crossroad.page: has an landing page, but that is not officially supported (yet). See the configs in https://github.com/franciscop/crossroad/blob/master/document...

    A small Perl script <https://github.com/jmarshall/manconvert> that grinds a subset of man page nroff syntax directly into HTML. (That subset being “the constructs that are used in the man pages that it's used on”.)

    Some of the styling could be improved (those section headings for one!), but IMHO it produces better results than other more general-purpose manpage to HTML converters: see e.g. <https://www.htslib.org/doc/samtools.html>.
