truss VS Alpaca-API

Nice! We copied StyleX's "type-safe extensions" in Truss [1] so things like `` are allowed (setting margin is fine) while disallowing `` (anything "not margin") that would mess up the components internal impl details with a compile error.

That said, we don't actually use the feature that much, vs. higher-level logical props like ``.

I know we're supposed to use build-time CSS-in-JS these days, but afaiu they don't support the rare-but-handy "just spread together ~4-5 different object literals from ~random different conditionals + props", i.e. intermixing styles some inside the component + outside the component, which emotion handles really well.

Basically this [2]. StyleX says it does "cross-file styles"...but can it support that? I kinda assume not, but I'm not sure.

Fwiw to the avoid 80%-in-TW / 20%-in-SCSS-or-something-else dichotomy/complexity, we built Truss which brings TW (Tachyons) style abbreviations to the existing "something else" tool chain (Emotion in our case).

So then everything goes through a single system.

> tailwind's and SCSS's VS code integration is pretty amazing

We get that too, by being just vanilla TypeScript, no editor-specific integration necessary. :-D

(I've linked to Truss in another response, so will stop now. :-))

Don't want to take away from Tailwind, it's great.

That said, self-promotion disclaimer but if you like inline/utility CSS, and also like TypeScript/React/Emotion, we've got a "Tailwinds-ish" CSS-in-JS library that we've enjoyed so far:

Is there anyone using Alpaca for long term and passive investing? I am neither a US nor Europe residence, so it is pretty hard to find a decent broker. I came across alpaca.market https://alpaca.markets/ and noticed that there is zero comission for buying and selling stocks. I know that it has pretty good API especially for developers and day traders, but i am particularly interested in long term passive investing, and not interesting in day trading at all. Is it goog for long term passive investing (buying and holding etfs)?

No worries at all! https://alpaca.markets/ is another route for market data. Real time data is cheaper but it is lacking technical analysis. We used to use it and it's pretty good.

Alpaca: https://alpaca.markets/

Access to historical data from Alpaca and Yahoo Finance, or from your own data provider.

I have been looking at https://alpaca.markets/ and wanted to use it to test out some of my API based trading.

What guarantees or structures are in place to make sure it doesn't end up like FTX?

Market data is an easier one to answer. We currently use https://alpaca.markets/ and they're pretty good, but we're also looking at https://polygon.io/ as they're the industry leader (but also 2k per month for what we require).

I'm trying to make an HTTPS request with an ESP32 to this website alpaca.markets. I have the CA cert and I'm using WiFiClientSecure.h. Here's my code, main.cpp is underneath all that.

Or you can sign up for a free account at Alpaca and use their historical data API. Then you can get data on many tickers with one function call.
