Working on a new pelican (python static site generator like jekyll) theme with a minimal old book style, with renaissance serif fonts, text decorations, etc. Not a designer, so I'm having a bit of trouble but I think I did fairly well so far! Comments appreciated. https://github.com/makmanalp/fleuron (screenshot included!)

Hey, I've just published jstatico[1], yet another static site generator. I wanted to ask if it's ok to fork and modify this to create an example site to use with my generator. I use nunjucks so porting should be trivial. In the readme of the repo, you said: > You can reuse it freely, I only ask that you keep the > attribution text and link on the bottom as is but you don't have a license. So, I wasn't sure if you'd a…

If you want to include comments on your static site you might enjoy this project:

http://i.imgur.com/TKez9Wi.png Finding a job can be difficult and managing the application / search process has always been a pain point for me. I'm working on a personal app to help me find a job and manage the application process for it. I've scraped and indexed all of the Hacker News "Who is hiring" threads since January 2013 and am putting support in for Github Jobs and Careers 2.0 to get a pretty decent list of…

Do you plan on making it public at some point ? Looks like a really good idea.

I do! My goal is to open source it when my job hunt is finished or maybe host it somewhere (already has registration and login).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I think this could be a really useful tool for relationship management - almost like BloomThat with a schedule. Perhaps you could pitch this to businesses that need to impress their clients and create pre-scheduled gift sets. For example, send flowers for your prospective clients' birthday, send chocolates and a thank-you after a meeting, etc.

Maybe. That's what most people use GiftsOnTime (our biggest competitor) for, actually.

Just checked out their website. It's really unclear how they could help a mom-and-pop small business - maybe this could be your niche. If it's something you'd be interested in, why not put together a few gift packages (or better, series of gifts) that could be useful in courting a new landlord/potential investor, etc? You could differentiate yourself by clearly explaining why your gift series would be useful to someone who pays for your service.

Right now, I'm working on adding the ability to RSVP for events. It's been really great to learn how to use Docker, Redis, Postgres, etc. to make this come together. Overkill likely, but still fun. :-)

Looks great, one tip is that its nuptials not nuptuals. Congrats!

Fixed!

Your site looks beautiful!

Thank you! I just finalized the majority of the updates now. Only thing left to add is details for the Anglican ceremony, which I'll take care of this weekend.
