hi all its me again…fumbling but having fun making my site. I know I did see a post on here that has ideas for IRL webweaving workshops but because Im in the army and move around so often, I was wondering if there were online workshops or critiques specific to webweaving?
Any discords mostly as Im always on there. I just want to have place where we can critique each others code and just talk about how we can do better with it. What are the html and css best practices and so on.
Just something on my mind. Even with a boatload of resources, I still have a hard time understanding concepts. I cant name my problems right now but there are a few things.
our monthly webweaving workshop is online via zoom! the links are posted on discourse in the Community Events section and announced in the Announcements channel here and on discord.
you can always make a thread here and/or on discord asking for feedback if that’s something you want! folks in the cafe tend to err on the side of being encouraging about whatever you want to do with your site, though, so it helps to be specific about what kind of feedback you want and what your goals are for your site. everybody has their own style, interests, preferences, etc.
besides the cafe discord server, i believe the neocities reddit has a discord server; it seems like folks on the subreddit itself aren’t super into feedback-type threads (although im not there very often), but maybe on discord they’re more amenable (no idea though, i’m not in it!)
and i think the indieweb chat is accessible via discord. that’s all the discords i know about! maybe other folks know of more.
we have a whole heap of tutorials and other learning resources in the resource list that could help with figuring out best practices, although what constitutes “best practice” varies a lot depending on what your goals and interests with your website are! (for example, making your website more legible to web crawlers is “best practice” if you want to be found via search engines, but making your website less legible to web crawlers is “best practice” if you want to prevent datascraping!)
