So my second #100days challenge comes to an end, and I would say it was another success.
I maybe wasn't quite so strict with it as last time - I may have taken 101 days and what I did on each day varied quite a lot, but I now have 100 updates and achieved quite a lot in that time.
Let's take a look at some of the bigger things I worked on over those 100 days
I launched the redesign and rebuild of my website. It's now a Next.js app, and I am super happy with how it looks and Next.js seems like the perfect choice for me and is only getting better with each update.
There are definitely still plenty of potential improvements to be made, but in general I'm really happy with how it turned out.
The montly and yearly summary pages are really fun and I'm happy with the overabundance of feeds that I now have available.
Although I've still not got around to releasing version 2 of the PostrChild extension I have put a lot of work into and it is very nearly feature complete.
It's definitely much better and feature filled than the first version but there are a few little bugs to iron out before declaring it ready to be published.
I also made a decent amount of random home automation improvements over these 100 days, including tracking my weight, better person presence tracking, more light, motion and temperature sensors.
All in all it was a great success!
I will definitely continue with a lot of the projects I have been working on, but I think I will take a break for a while and do something else with my spare time - I think there are some unplayed video games that are calling out to me!
P.S. Also big shoutout to my fellow Kinsta coworkers who have also complete their 100 days of blogging!

What I did manage to do was: make the autocompletion system for emoji, blocks and contacts much more reliable, fix the button to easily reply to any page and some updates to inserting and uploading images.
I still have a lot left to do but I am really hoping I now have the biggest hurdles out of the way and future development will go more smoothly.

The quick version is that Micropub is an open standard to allow publishing to your own website from a variety of apps or clients. It's great. I love it. But it's mostly a one way experience, publishing only.
The spec does define ways to query and update specific posts, but they are generally not implemented by very many clients - perhaps because they are more complex to design and develop or perhaps because it's not the most useful thing.
Recently we've also seen a couple of large projects add Micropub support in iA Writer and Thread Reader. Which is awesome, but I think if queries become more mainstream there is the potential for much better apps and a more convincing reason for Micropub to be integrated into more existing apps.
Proposals for Micropub Queries have been around for a while without a huge amount of movement. Maybe it's a chicken and egg type scenario, if no clients add support, then why add support to your site?
I've made a couple of things that use queries myself. My chatbot can query posts (although it's not very useful) and Together has a useful view of your published posts as well, and Indigenous for Android also can show a basic list of your published posts.
But for me all those examples are fairly basic, and there is a lot of potential for more powerful and compelling experiences.
There are so many possibilities for super useful experiences for Micropub Queries that I'm just going to list off a bunch of things I can think of:
There are so many more that I've thought of and forgotten or that I've not though of yet.
Although there are plenty of nice, usable apps on the Indieweb I still think we are missing a next level experience to really highlight the power and potential of Indieweb technologies, maybe Micropub Queries could help bring that about...

I'm sure there are little things that have broken or can be improved but I definitely prefer this setup to styled components - I can see the appeal but I find them to be limiting or hard to use when you hit edge cases that don't really fit in the \"component\" mold.

Turns out that web extensions don't support having both a \"browser action\" and a \"page action\" in one extension. But it's no so bad, it was just providing a one click alternative to a 2 click flow.

To attempt to add images to that last post I made sure that the PostrChild extension will always add an empty paragraph to the end of the content if the last item is not a paragraph. So you can always write something after an image or different type of block.
If only the image handling wasn't so broken though 😅...

The main view is much more organised and clean now by moving everything into sections and using cards for lots of controls.
And I also have a nice little person view which shows my body stats as well as my home status with the emoji 🏠
