Etchings

I recently came across a small community building custom "start pages" for their browsers.

What do you get when you wrap a Flask app behind a Nginx reverse proxy managed by Circus and wrapped in a Docker container? The need to read a lot of documentation.

This past week, I wrote about the EVE SSO flow in Python using Flask. Here's how to do it with a separate frontend using Vue.js.

I've written a handful of web apps using EVE Online's Single Sign-On service, so I'm sharing an example app I've written to demonstrate that flow using my CREST library, Preston.

Prest now supports refresh tokens.

Using websockets to communicate the progress of a task ran in a separate thread.

I've renamed my EVE CREST tool from Prest to Preston.

PyPI is a wonderful tool, but uploading is sometimes a nuisance.

Installing a self-signed (gasp!) SSL certificate on my VPS was extremely simple, free, and took less than 5 minutes.

I rarely run into problems running a few web apps on the smallest DO droplet, but upgrading Ghost is one of those times where I need to do a bit of work in order for everything to work.
