Launching XFROCKS

So after a loooong time, I finally launch XFROCKS (again) with the help of Sylvie. The site is actually an experiment which provides premium support (premium = fast, accurate, personal) for freely released add-ons of mine. Only widely used add-ons got their own forum for questions:


To assist with the cost of running the site, 3 other add-ons are also available for sale:

  • Trophy Extension ($29) for [bd] Medal System: allow people to attach medals to trophies and have them show up in the posts etc.
  • User Group Extension ($29) for [bd] Medal System: similar to the above but with user group. When users purchase user group upgrade or have user group set by administrators, they will have additional medal image show up.
  • Last but not least, [bd] Attachment Store (only $19!): a completely new add-on allows sites to utilize Amazon S3/FTP as attachment storages. I have written 2 additional HOWTO post about using the add-on with Amazon S3+CloudFlare and Amazon S3+CloudFront.
The welcome post is pretty short but to the point: let's see how this goes!

Replacing GCP with Railway for faster cold start

TL;DR I switched a Dart API from Cloud Run to Railway for a 300% faster cold start, simplified DevOps, and a straightforward fee structure. Problem I'm working on this project github.com/daohoangson/flutter_widget_from_html . It is a pub.dev package that's super handy for Flutter developers who want to seamlessly render HTML in their apps. Now, when it comes to HTML, it can get pretty dynamic, right? That's why having a playground to showcase features, troubleshoot issues, and tackle bugs is crucial. The Google team has this fantastic tool called dartpad.dev , which is just perfect for this kind of thing. However, there's a little catch - third-party packages like mine usually can't be used there (unless you have thousands of likes, as explained on  Medium ). So I decided to take matters into my own hands, forked it, then deployed try.fwfh.dev with additional package support. Initial idea since 2019 First deployment  in 2021 Cl...

(tiếng Việt ở dưới) Today I'm announcing the release of Vietnamese Input Method for XenForo as an extremely easy to use add-on. The add-on package can be downloaded here:  xfrocks.com The source is available also on github. The source tree is merged from the  mudim Google Code tree This add-on does not just insert a simple <script /> tag into every page of your site. It went far than that and create a few additional option in account/preferences page so logged in users will be able to configure their typing preferences once and for all (so if a user uses multiple machine, it still works as expected). **** Add-on này tích hợp bộ gõ mudim cho XenForo. Hỗ trợ trình soạn thảo WYSIWYG trên máy tính để bàn cũng như trình soạn thảo chuẩn cho các thiết bị di động (Android, iOS,...).
