Ed Laver 🥤

Hey fellow #Shopify App devs, I've been collating resources in Notion as I've been doing research on getting started and I'd like to share what I have so far: dev-resources.lemonadestand.dev Would love a follow if you find it useful! 🤗

@burcs Like the good old FTP days!

it only took a year or so but it's finally here cloudflare.com/drop

@ScriptedAlchemy Have you tried a "Dev Drive"? learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/…

How on earth is Windows so slow during Rust builds, linking, and test runner operations?

@GRITCULT matheww.medium.com/and-icarus-lau…

Many people in life will laugh at Icarus. But most people do not know that Icarus himself was laughing. Because he knew that to have fallen Enan meant he had to have soared. The lesson here, is that if you are afraid to fall, you will never fly, you will never soar.

Mantle's Techtonic is officially canceled. @ShopDevAlliance is stepping up. Hosting our own in-person event has been on our roadmap for a while, and this is the moment. It's our first one, spots will be limited, and we won't try to replace Techtonic. But we'll get the community together and it'll be a good one. Sign up for news: brightwork.dev Open to sponsors too, just DM me.

After a lot of thought, we've made the difficult decision to wind down Mantle over the coming months. We know this affects real work you've built on top of us. Learn what's changing, the dates that matter, and more: docs.heymantle.com/migrating-off-….

@heymantle Very sorry to hear that guys. Hope it all works out for the best.

@kushalbyatnal PPTX viewer?

over 1k+ github stars for Extend UI (and growing!) we're going to double down & make this library the most useful open source toolkit for everything related to documents what do you want us to build next?

@kinngh @PlanetScale @Railway I've heard alright things about Netlify for hosting as well come to think of it.

@_edlaver @PlanetScale @Railway Oh ye I need to spend some time exploring Containers

What is the @planetscale of managed hosting? I want to be able to just throw JS apps on there and just have it work. I really love @Railway but looking at what else is out there - I don't use docker - No, I don't wanna VPS - Don't even talk to me about the triangle company - I love Cloudflare but I need a stateful server, or I would've just used Workers

At last, the cycle is complete... codex-pet-share.pages.dev/share/clippit

LIFE UPDATE! I’m leaving Shopify to start something new (DMs Open) ! 😮 Here's why I'm choosing to leave one of the best product jobs in the world👇 👇 1) I have a 9 month old, and I need him to know that when the greatest opportunity in my lifetime came that his dad took a shot and went full "fuck it, we ball mode". 2) AI is changing what users want from their software. Nearly every category of software is WIDE open to be disrupted by the AI native version. Today’s software is a prompt for the next software. 3) Writing code isn't the bottleneck anymore. It's finding the right problem, defining the right solution, and knowing how to talk about it. These are my super powers. 4) Sharing your products' story, GOING DIRECT (s/o @lulumeservey) and engaging openly with your users is more important than ever. With AI you can instantly act on feedback and ship what users ask for in near REAL TIME. 5) Onboarding people and organizations to actually use AI effectively, and in a token-efficient way is THE opportunity right now. As for *what* I'm building exactly PLEASE STAY TUNED. IF any of what I shared resonates with you or you'd love to build together my DMs are OPEN. Thank you Shopify 💚 It has been a true honor and privilege to lead customer accounts & sign-in at Shopify the last ~5 years because of the incredible community of merchants, partners, and Shopifolk I’ve been able to build with. I will remain a fan and shareholder of Shopify. - To @nicklenko, my partner in crime 🥹 🥹 Working with you has been one of the greatest joys in my career! - To the Shopify ecosystem partners. MY HOMIES. I love working with you so much! I am going to miss you at editions dev 😭😭 - To @tobi, @harleyf, @mcfazeli, @michaelelmgreen, @glencoates - I truly had courtside seats to learn from the best - To the entire customer accounts & sign-in team (SELF-SERVE 4 EVER!) If you need support going forward for customer accounts, continue to lean on @nicklenko, @liam_at_shopify , and @ShopifyDevs

@craigsdennis @megaconfidence @CloudflareDev That "Agents Never Sleep" pic is dope. You guys should turn it into a sticker.

Look I know there are a ton of @CloudflareDev ships this week, so I'm working on a Voice Agent that can help give you a recap. Oh yeah, we officially launched Voice Agents today.

@Discoplomacy Sabroxy XT is pretty good: unrealsupps.co.uk/serious-nutrit…

@Presidentlin @Zapidroid +me, so must be one left.

@Zapidroid Nope the world runs on Apple software, there's only like 4 windows users, me/you/two others who will not be named. /s

For like the 4 windows users on this part of twitter. apps.microsoft.com/detail/9plm9xg…

@zeropassio @thsottiaux I think they just mean use your OpenAI account email to log into the Codex app once it's downloaded, not for the Windows store. It is confusing wording, I initially thought the same as you.

@thsottiaux This is quite silly. I did try to make new account to match the store, but of course microsoft says i am not human and can't make it.

We have invited our first (small) batch from the waitlist to try the Codex app on windows. Hope to quickly expand from there as we iterate quickly through feedback.

@DamiDina Just what I'm used to. I've had PCs since DOS days. Used Macs a bit now and then but never really took to them. Might be time to switch to Linux though...

@_edlaver I’m always curious why. I def don’t like spending so much money on Apple devices every year

LFG! 🚀

@SammyIsseyegh Can't afford it.

@_edlaver I thought you were a Linux boy
