    A collaborative database of all public, private, and unmapped airports in the US.

  • Thank you! And yeah, backend dev historically, but these days I do mostly devops work. It took me quite a while to write a not completely awful looking frontend for this. :) The architecture overview is documented here if you're interested in that: https://github.com/shanet/pirep/blob/master/docs/runbook.md.

  • importmap-rails

    Use ESM with importmap to manage modern JavaScript in Rails without transpiling or bundling.

  • Yeah, those were brand new right around the time I started this project a few years ago with Rails 7 (or was it 6.1?). I actually ended up removing them in favor of importmap-rails since I wanted as simple of a frontend as possible and I wasn't sure of relying on what was, at the time, a brand new way of doing frontend work. Things change so quickly in JS-land that I'm always hesitant to make something a dependency unless it has a strong track record of being continuously maintained.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
