Realizing there's very little distance between haxcms theme system and the vast majority of WP blog themes: - next / prev arrow - RSS - scroll to top - header - banner / glossy image of some kind While you DL WP "themes" which are 99% the same overlapping functionality, by meeting these core capabilities it's how it takes minutes to develop new themes. Imagine in WP there's a bunch of css + html + PHP to be assumed to be 'next button with title'. In HAXcms it's this screen shot, copy and pasted in the theme template + some CSS variables to make it look slightly different between themes, but it's functionally the same. Imagine you could write code to build a WP theme like "" and you get the footer or "" and you get it, then style with CSS variables and it looks like anything you want. That's what we've created, and in 2024 you'll start hearing (and seeing) more of what and who it empowers as mild investment in themes via CSS reverse engineering brings us new designs for the platform in hours instead of weeks. Because our 99% of code does overlap, and unlike copy-pasta-div-itis, it literally is overlapping for faster time to deliver designs and more efficient usage of resources in getting the next thing there, because it's the same as the last thing, and the next thing.

Penn State via @HAXTheWeb and webcomponents.psu.edu/ 🥳
FUD: Web components suck! No one is using them! But is that true? Google: Our annual $35 billion revenue YouTube product is built on Web Components. Microsoft: We converted our entire content platform from React SSR to Web Components which doubled the perf. We finally crossed the $10 billion annual revenue milestone. Adobe: We built Photoshop Web with Web Components. Salesforce: Our $31 billion annual revenue platform has been based on Web Components for years. SpaceX: We built our dashboard system with Web Components and launched rockets into space. GitHub: We've been building parts of the GitHub experience with Web Components for years. Anyone else building with Web Components? Amazon, Apple, Alaska Airlines, BBVA, Begin, Blizzard, BYU, Clever Cloud, Cloud Four, Comcast, EA, 11ty, ESRI, Ford, GE, GitLab, General Motors, GuideCom, IBM, Infragsitics, ING, The Internet Archive, Ionic, Joomla!, NASA, Netlify, Penn State, Reddit, Red Hat, SAP, Scania, Stripe, Ubisoft, Vaadin, Visa, Wolkswagen, Wordle, etc. arewebcomponentsathingyet.co…

uhh.. but if they don't use the system... how will they need to meet up to discuss using the system. I'm confused.... isn't the point of UX to force people to click buttons over and over to adopt your system? If we just empower them directly...

A/B test: HAX usability vs WordPress to build a course for rapid discussion youtube.com/watch?v=GelXNKTN… This is comparing HAX UX of building a page and menu structure against WP w/o Gutenberg (edu default for most). #haxtheweb #edu #edtech #education #ngdle #cms #wordpress

code made in the video: github.com/elmsln/lrnwebcomp… This video is also a precursor to the building of a theme for @HAXTheWeb that meets these criteria which students in my 256 class will help forge a path toward by reverse engineering some additional bricks from the style guide.

Building the polaris-story-card element youtube.com/watch?v=Ilw51giJ… In this video I reverse engineer a #webcomponent by analyzing the psu.edu website. Our office commissioned a "course style guide" ~10 years ago to solve similar problems in design inconsistency.

No effort is wasted. These sites leverage identical assets: OER: oer.courses.science.psu.edu/ ODL: odl.science.psu.edu/ And in the near future, anyone will be able to build their OER listing site using HAX as a theme! It's also been proposed as an alternative site listing!

just another success story from HAX7. Expecting a lot more as word starts to get out about what we've done here. This saved hours if not days of copy and paste migration for skilled staff who now can focus efforts on high quality course production instead! #NGDLE is real
"I successfully imported everything! (Love the confetti pop at the end of setup)" - just had an instructor use the Notion import button to ingest a Notion .md space and convert it into a @HAXTheWeb space. As lead, here's how you build complex integrations.. without..

Dark web.. err.. mode, ftw.
We hear you like working in the dark, so do we. That's why dark mode got another round of focus in HAX7. Toggling dark mode now makes HAX authoring UI as well as the default theme react to turning out the lights github.com/elmsln/ #edtech #edu #education #ngdle #haxtheweb

Seriously, if you’re with Reclaim Hosting, install this and see what the web could be.

If only the arts and humanities collaborated to build a CMS.. tsc-dbfp.libraries.psu.edu/c… a custom implementation of "hax11ty" by @AndrewGearhart at PSU libraries to put historical plays online in a format people can reference

All too often, DH and Ed tech don’t really talk to each other. So I’m flagging this for my DH friends because I think it could be a game-changer #ach2023
If I may play off a few convos from #reclaimopen that I've reflected on.. We talk.. a lot. We "preach to the choir" as was a refrain of the event. We've gotten great at policy action, forming groups, taking the message back home... but we need to build tech..

Ontology is too many letters. That's it. That's the tweet.
ELMS & @HAXTheWeb white papers added to the in-development "HAXcelence" resource. This space will help explore all things surrounding our projects, worldfiew, media, ontologies, tutorials, documentation, media, great course examples in production & more! oer.hax.psu.edu/bto108/sites…
