I've finally articulated what feels weird about htmx et al. I feel the pain point of duplicated rendering between server and client. I'm open to the idea of sending partial HTML instead of JSON data to rehydrate. I don't like relying on custom headers for content negotiation.
Trying something new I’m gonna call trad coding. It’s where I generate tokens by hand using only my brain.
Finally had a good idea. Hope the next one doesn’t take another 4 decades to arrive.
The neat thing about this is spreadsheets are already somewhat inherently modal editors, so vim is a great fit conceptually. The refactor to support this has been good leverage to get Cassava's overall architecture into a cleaner place. Plus it's cool.
Wyatt K.@wyattkirby.com · 3w agoI put a new item into TODO.md. I think it's gonna be good.
rc22 is out for cassava.dev. Some good polish in this update, including an all-new autofill handle, highlighted cell references, and a tuned-up SQL panel experience.

Wyatt K.@wyattkirby.com · 3w agoIt's the little things that make an app feel good to live in. This took 2 days to get right, but I feel good about where we ended up for all the subtle interactions between selection borders and interactive edges at the seams of your sheets.

I can’t overstate how nice it is to have a camera that’s not a phone. Even a cheap one (mine is). Even if you don’t know what you’re doing (I don’t). The photos just feel so different, so much truer to life. The tiny smart phone lens warps everything just enough to fall into an uncanny valley.
Oh hey, rc21 is live with support for opening spreadsheet files (xls, xlsx, ods and more) — plus some other great stuff like performance improvements, recent file support, bugfixes, and more. cassava.dev

Wyatt K.@wyattkirby.com · 4w agoCassava now natively opens xls, xlsx, and ods files. We are one step closer to my dream of never opening Excel again.

My apologies to anyone who downloaded rc20 yesterday — it was missing the auto-update URL. A corrected build has been uploaded and is available to install.
Wyatt K.@wyattkirby.com · 4w agoCassava is now on rc20 and is "feature complete" for beta. I'd expect the rc tag to be removed in the next two weeks as we move into a proper beta release. Downlod here! cassava.dev/releases

I'm pretty stoked about the next version of Cassava I'm about to push. Why? Cassava in your CLI. Oh yeah, and we take JSON or CSV strings from stdin.
Pretty sure I don't need Claude — I can write slop code all by myself.
It's been quiet on the Cassava front for a couple weeks. We've been letting the alpha marinate as a daily driver and easing the pain on some rough edges. One such rough edge? Format-aware find for numeric values.
The male urge to treat elected office as a road to personal redemption is going to lose Dems the senate.

An Oregon Law Lets One Wealthy Region Turn the Desert Green. When Drought Hits, Farmers Pay the Price.
In the high desert of Central Oregon, the Deschutes River is a lifeline for farmers and landowners — but a century-old water law entitles just a few thousand people to more than half of its volume.

Based on these ads FOX One is the most not for me streaming service of all time.
Look, it's easy to get lost in your tabular data. That's why Cassava features not just zebra stripes, but 🌈 mode.
Oh, did I mention that because we support opening tabular JSON, this also means you can write SQL that joins *across* file types? If you think this is cool, we're actively seeking alpha users on Mac and Linux.
Yes, I am putting a SQL engine inside this CSV app. Open multiple files, query them with SQL. Open results to a new CSV buffer.
