reactiveservices VS notion-auto-pull

And the screenshot is the early version of the real app built on it

Conceptually it's the same to what described in conductor, however you are in full control how the data is synced, how and to what you subscribe etc.

It was built, first of all, for the application in forex trading, so there are some "specific" features, such as optimised binary stream with delta-only updates, priority on the data streams, demand-based backpressure, subscription based on the visibility of the data, very low latency, cross-dc clusters and many more.

How it works is described (in rather over-simplified way) on the github page. There's a choice of scala or java on the back end, and react on the client side. Websocket only. Like I mentioned, the currently exposed source code is not maintained and based on the very version of react (there are still mixins in the example), and has some vulnerabilities.

The latest version of the framework is maintained in the private repo, and we have built a number of solutions on it over the years, and not only in the forex space. It is well suited for most Single-page apps.

Latest version uses latest react features, hooks based, and the server side has seen significant changes as well.

Why we decided to keep it private? We thought world already have enough web frameworks, and since, we thought, our framework and approach was such a niche, we just kept using it for our clients and our own projects. But since then we have been surprised how easily it could be applied to other fields, and yet there's still nothing like this is available. GraphQL with subscriptions probably is the closes, but not good enough.

Is there any interest in something like this in the community? If so, we can definitely make large parts of the framework, which is now 6yo, public.

My perfection had a name: Notion.

I manage my non-work and work-adjacent tasks in Notion. Whenever I have an idea, regardless of how big or small or silly or achievable it is, I'll add it to Notion, and use labels to categorise it by type of output (e.g. blog, silly project, website update). Today I wanted to write a short post for my site. I clicked on the filtered blog post view, and selected this one (because I hoped it would be a quick one!).

Notion.so redefines workspaces. With its intelligent organization and collaboration features, it's more than a productivity tool—it's a digital haven. Discover the art of streamlined and efficient teamwork.

A quote as I could not directly send a discord screenshot and am not sure that people want to make an account at notion.so simply to see the FAQ:

I work on a large SPA: https://notion.so

It’s a document editing application. A document title might occur in the browser’s titlebar, in the header of the main editor, in a “mention” (a link to the document), and in multiple places in the user’s sidebar - like in both their “Favorites” section and in the the contents of their team.

When the user edits the document title, we need to update all those UI bits to render the new title. I have a hard time imagining some imperative code that iterates over all the possible views that may render a title to mutate them.

Notion (Notion.so) is an all-in-one workspace where you can write, plan, collaborate and get organized - it allows you to take notes, add tasks, manage projects & more. Imagine a lego structure. Notion provides the building blocks and you can create your own layouts and toolkit to get work done.

I think Notion (notion.so) is a good tool for managing Captain's Log games (and RPG games in general) but there is a bit of a learning curve. If there is interest, I would consider writing a more detailed tutorial on how to use Notion for Captains Log (as I figure the game out). I'd also recommend Thomas Frank's website and youtube channel for tutorials on how to use Notion.

my personal thoughts: regardless of how many people prefer not to believe it, and the fact that some startups do use non-dotcom (Notion owns notion.com by the way, but still redirects to notion.so - i suspect it's because it's too much of a hassle to do so rather than .so being their preferred TLD), the truth is that the .com still has a certain brand allure to it to mainstream consumers. personally i paid 10k for my startup's .com even though the other TLDs were cheap as hell (which i also bought anyway). i thought it was crazy expensive, but i still felt it was money well spent for the branding.
