# Development Log

These are short daily logs about the development process. Read also development notes for random thought and ideas that are bubbling behind the scenes.

# February 2021

# January 2021

  • First vacation in a year! 🎉

# December 2020

# November 2020

# October 2020

# September 2020

  • Started a new project from clean slate for Slipmat Admin for figuring out the best way to build new user-facing UIs for artists and users. This is based on Vue 3, automatically tested with Cypress and automatically deployed via Vercel.
  • Also started experimenting with a new datatable component (opens new window) (live demo (opens new window)) that could be used in all Slipmat projects instead of writing every list view by hand. The rabbit hole was pretty deep here but the alpha component is currently already in use with the new admin site.

# August 2020

  • Started a new project from clean slate for Slipmat Admin for figuring out the best way to build new user-facing UIs for artists and users. This is based on Vue 3, automatically tested with Cypress and automatically deployed via Vercel.

# March - July 2020

Fine

  • As the world caught on fire (and COVID-19) most of the development effort has gone into the old code and helping DJs to play and earn money. Released quite a lot of new features and fixed a lot of old (and new) bugs.
  • Built a first version of the new Slipmat Event Planner (opens new window) built from a totally blank slate just to get an idea of how the tool could work.

# February 2020

# January 2020

  • Created the code project and deployed next.slipmat.io + api.slipmat.io. There is no functionality yet but the main development environment is now working and deployments are tested + fully automatic.
  • More planning, made some initial software and hosting decisions. (Decided against K8s in favour of a lighter Traefik-based solution but still running on Docker.)

# Late 2019

  • Designing, planning and some light prototyping.
  • Created the repository on 2019-10-09.
