...I am building a tool to help you select the right font for your landing page. You'll be able to browser 1000+ fonts right on your website and copy the code for it.

Aaaahhh... going to rewrite dragging using the html drag API instead of the react dnd-kit. Hope it doesn't mess up everything.

Only top 1% of the programmers can solve this 🙀.

There are two divs, one inner and outer. The inner div is responsible for zoom and pan (css transforms).
Now, during drop event you get client(x, y) position, now using this find the correct drop position relative to inner div pic.twitter.com/iyb3E2fHpb
The base is almost done, but still very early in development.#buildinpublic pic.twitter.com/3zsBAVi8aI

Had a unidentifiable bug, was trying to find the source for hours, got tired, went to sleep.
— Paul (@pauls_freeman) September 19, 2024
The answer came to me at 3 AM when I was sleeping -> woke up -> wrote it on a piece of paper -> went back to sleep.
Fixed the bug when I woke up again.
TODO and FIXME in my codebase#buildinpublic pic.twitter.com/7IF0SF4UNV

A React component in my code has gone over 900+ lines 😵💫. Will have to refactor after putting out the MVP. pic.twitter.com/hftJer5MSO

Swappable and droppable layout is kinda ready. The program switch between swap and drop by checking if the drop is in the black rect or the colorful rect. (black rect swap, else drop)
— Paul (@pauls_freeman) September 21, 2024
Ofc, now this isn't ideal, but prototype I think its fine.

aaahh... it finally worked, the build command for cloudflare react app pages should be
— Paul (@pauls_freeman) October 1, 2024
```
CI='' npm run build
```
It sucks that it was not mentioned in the docs. The cloudflare logs are also not that obvious :(
