FreeStuffDev

List of free services for developers like database, hosting, authentication and other stuff.
Check it out at freestuff.dev.

I had many tools in my private repository and thought why not bring it to the public? Surprisingly there are not many alternatives out there that focusing on free programming tools, so I created my own dev-tool list to start prototyping or making an MVP.

Built with Hugo Static site generator and hosted at Netlify. (Now Astro on Vercel!)

freestuffdev's Issues

awesome-projects and freeStuffDev?

Hi everyone.

concept and initial problem

I want to know if you've all thought about adding links to open source communities on freeStuffDev, the idea would be for anyone to have information where the communities are, in addition to knowing about the main software, open source projects or libs, parsers too.

Why?

1. Personally, I love this project and would like to know if this idea is good or not.
2. I could add the community links for Gnome, Mint, Ubuntu etc. This allows me to be more assertive, instead of having a bunch of links in browser(like google chrome, edge, firefox etc) to access.
3. My idea is that this repository is awesome-links, where we add links to open source communities (ie contact), or add links to open source projects and posts that are good. This makes it easier to search for certain things.
4. Currently, being able to remember many links to access is complicated. And that could make my life easier or that of many programmers who need an open, distributed repository of links.

content/stuff/gnome_community

image-description As we can see in the image, we have links to the organization of each open project. As well as, we have links to each open project as well. On the other hand, links to the technical documentation of each open project could complement this idea. As well as, we could complement the idea, have links to library files, parsers, reading recommendations, etc.

What do you all think of this idea?

Addition of FreeFrontend as a resource/tool

I'd like to raise attention to a tool/website named "FreeFrontend" which is a free platform with templates and guides to html, css, js, etc.

Add Tag for OS

Could there be a section on each freeStuff to indicate what platform each is available on. It would save time, so someone knows if the program is available on only Mac or Windows or even both or more.

For example, I had to click the visit link for Warp Terminal to realize it was only for Mac OS. While Termius is available on Mac, Windows, Linus and also mobile

option for change layout free Stuff dev (view grid, list)

Hi everyone.

Concept

My general idea is to have an option to view the links available on the site as a list and grid.

add md5 to filename.md?

Hi everyone.

One of the things I noticed that is manual is that we have to manually add the file name. A random idea that came to my mind would be to have random names for md files. Which makes the link automation or link curation part of freeStuffdev easier.

This could be done with the md5 algorithm which generates unique hashes.

new properties and values in freeStuff dev?

Hi everyone.

Idea

A random idea I had today would be to have 4 links: link_homepage, link_documentation, link_community, link_repository. My idea would be to have an array of links.

example: link_sitename_or_project.md

+++
date = 2022-11-19T14:30:43.478Z
title = "Sample sitename or project"
link = ["https://sample-sitename.com/docs/", "https://sample-sitename.com/community/", "https://sample-sitename.com/homepage/", "https://sample-sitename.com/source-code/"]
thumbnail = "https://sample-sitename.com/AnzKNLZrk0Lw_400x400.jpg"
snippet="Sample sitename or project, description."
license="MIT or BSD or Copyright"
tags = ["tag1","tag2", "source-code"]
+++

code-description: As we can see in this code snippet, we have the license property that refers to the license of the software or project, which can be MIT, GPL etc. And we have an array of links where we can insert multiple links: link_homepage, link_documentation, link_community, link_repository.

freeStuffDev: decentralized and distributed?

Hi everyone.

Instead of adding 'localstorage', could we add 'remote-storage', IPFS and/or solid-pod to add bookmarks in freeStuffDev?

Idea

img 1.1

img 1.2

image-description: As we can see, we can choose the storage location, being dropbox, google drive, remote storage and/or localstorage for bookmarks in freeStuffDev.

Why solid-pod, IPFS and/or remote-storage?

Why ipfs?

• IPFS makes it simple to set up resilient networks for mirroring data, and thanks to content addressing, files stored using IPFS are automatically versioned.

Why solid-pod?

1. You can store any kind of data in a Solid Pod. What makes Solid special is the ability to store data in a way that promotes interoperability.
2. Specifically, Solid supports storing Linked Data. Structuring data as Linked Data means that different applications can work with the same data.

Why remote-storage?

1. For users:
   • own your data: Everything in one place – your place. Use a storage account with a provider you trust, or set up your own storage server. Move house whenever you want. It’s your data.
   • stay in sync: remoteStorage-enabled apps automatically sync your data across all of your devices, from desktop to tablet to smartphone, and maybe even your TV or VR headset.
   • compatibility & choice: Use the same data across different apps. Create a to-do list in one app, and track the time on your tasks in another one. Say goodbye to app-specific data silos.
   • go offline: Most remoteStorage-enabled apps come with first-class offline support. Use your apps offline on the go, and automatically sync when you’re back online.
2. For developers:
   • backend as a service: Develop your web app without worrying about hosting or even developing the backend for it: your users will connect their own backend at runtime.
   • infinite scalability: No matter if 5 hundred or 5 million users are using your app, your backend scales automatically and never costs you a single cent.
   • wheels included: remoteStorage.js is a JavaScript library that does all the heavy-lifting of connecting to any remoteStorage backend, caching, synchronizing and storing user data.
3. For community:
   • decentralized, distributed application
   • protocol is open-source
   • 100% client-side apps that use remoteStorage, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc…, the developer provides only the app, while the user controls the device and data.
   • remoteStorage is a creative combination of existing protocols and standards. It aims to re-use existing technologies as much as possible, adding just a small layer of standardization on top to facilitate its usage for per-user storage with simple permissions and offline-capable data sync. like: WebFinger, OAuth 2.0, HTTP REST.

Or why 3 network protocols?

• these protocols are well known and used for large-scale distribution of decentralized applications, which work online/offline.
• these protocols are well known and used for unhosted app

Broken link for "Notation" free dev tool

The website does not seem to load for me. Receiving "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED".

Broken Link: https://www.getnotation.com/?ref=freeStuffDev

Correct Spelling and Grammar

I'd like to make the main page easier to read. Specifically, I want to fix any spelling and grammar issues in the short description on the left hand side of the site as well as the "what is this" section at the bottom of the right side.

These changes might be small, but they'll make a big difference in how the page looks and reads.

Thunderpad wrong description

The project is named Thunderpad, then why does the desc. reference it as Textpad?

Trinket link broken

The link to Trinket is broken due to the ref.

This link does not work: https://trinket.io/?ref=freeStuffDev
It returns a 403 Forbidden

If we remove the ref, it woks fine, like this: https://trinket.io/

Save my favorites tools

Maybe useful to have option for save favorite tools only localstorage initially, so as not to generate an additional infrastructure cost

"more ui/ux in freeStuffDev"?

Hi everyone.

I would like to help this project by creating a new ui/ux in freeStuffDev. For example, I think it would be nice to have an infinitely scrollable navigation bar that shows a series of categories.

freeStuffDev with comments?

Hi everyone.

Have you all ever thought about having data from freestuffdev? a statistic? a visual graph of how many links were saved? how many categories of links?

Idea

Image 1.1

Image 1.2

Concept

An interesting idea would be to use this library: utterance.es, which allows there to be a GitHub api for commenting. So, in theory, people could comment on freeStuffDev links if they have a GitHub account. Or we can use Disqus for comment as alternative of utterance.

proof of concept

How?

Layer0 changed to Edgio

Can we have the items alphabetically ordered? Does this make sense?

Scroll bar looking weird in some places

I was just browsing the site and I saw that at few places we are getting a scrollbar and it's making the UI somewhat cluttered there. Attaching a screenshot for reference.

My System details

CHROME VERSION	106.0.5249.103
OS VERSION	Windows NT: 10.0.22000

Transition on "Show all categories " button

I would like to change the transition property for " Show all categories " button.
Due to current transition property , the transition is not that smooth and feels like the text is vanishing for a while

Can i update it??

Pagely domain expired

pagely.site redirects to a page suggesting the domain is on sale. I don't know if
Pagely is now referring to pagely.com, but this one doesn't seem to offer any free pricing plan and mostly focus on WordPress premium hosting. Pagely should either be removed from the listing if they discontinued their free services or the link should be updated with their new address if there is one.

Transforming the Normal Links in the cards to Buttons will surely improve the user interface and experience.

The encircled items in the below image can be made much more interactive.

Let me know what you think, if you agree I can surely start working on it.

Change searching method

Right now we're searching through javascript that only valid for one page.
As the item grows, we need to make a pagination to not load all items at once.

For that pagination,
we'll need a new search/filter method.
[might be change not live search anymore as we have now]

Watchout there are 3 pages will be affected:
index / tag(list) / random

401.one not found

Self-explaining title

Why hide search when you sort by newest ?

IMHO we should not hide the search engine after sorting by some criteria.

chrome extension for freeStuffDev?

Hi everyone.

concept

My idea would be to create an extension in the browser to send and receive links of freeStuffdev.

Idea

image-description: As we can see in the image, there is an extension in the browser. Mozilla bought the pocket.io company and made it open source. This image refers to getpocket.io, a program that saves links to read later.

web components for freeStuffDev?

Hi everyone.

I would like to know if they want or need or have thought about making the freeStuffDev interface distributed, decentralized through web components.

what is web components?

API in freeStuffDev?

Hi everyone.

I'm thinking of creating a presearch module to search software links, open source projects. I wanted to know if you've thought about creating an api to query links in freeStuffDev.

image-description: As we can see in this image I can query freeStuffDev links within presearch.

add links in tag in freestuffdev

1. Issue

A general problem with freestuffdev is that it has no linked tags, which makes certain information and useful links difficult for any user to access. For example:

img-before:

pros:

• None.

cons:

• It makes it difficult to search for new and old links.

2. Idea

We may have tags linked to facilitate certain searches. For example:

img-after:

pros:

• Makes it easy to search for new and old links.

cons:

• None, It's just a conceptual idea to solve a problem.
