    Where possible, maintain the right-click-view-source affordance. The beauty of the early web was that it was always possible to “peek behind the curtains”.

    Just make the source code availible behind a visible link (hosted on Github or another similiar platform if possible). I don’t see this being a problem by any means.





  • I think you are over exaggerating here. This isn’t just a case for Chrome to first introduce the new features to iOS, but many other cross-platform apps choose to do so. And it doesn’t need to be because nobody cares about Android. Android still has a larger user base especially when it comes to Chrome. But when you develop for iOS you optimize for tens of devices (maybe not even that) and maybe the latest 3 iOS versions, but when you develop for Android you optimize for thousands of devices from different manufacturers, that put different skins on top of Android, where one runs Android 13, the other one Android 11, and the another one Android 9. Hence when releasing a new feature you first put the work to the iOS version, see the user feedback, change and tweak some things and then put the work to make a functional Android version. I am not a professional dev myself by any means, so I can’t really say everything in confidence, but developing for Android probably takes more debugging and time, because of the variability of the environment the app will run in.




  • It uses openstreetmap data, except for our country and slovakia, where it uses its own map data. Although it has a some features aimed only at our country it can be used by anyone around the world without problem. In comparison to google maps it’s much more usable for hiking and cycling thanks to it’s less dull map graphic. Since the app is owned by a profit company it requires you to login to be able to use some of the basic features, like saving routes or recorded tracks, which is a pity. I am not really fan of Seznam (company behind it) and their services, but their maps are probably their most useful and well-done usable service. It has a web version too: https://en.mapy.cz. when it comes to navigation it has no traffic information except in our country. I would say that the navigation is average, but generally works well.

    You can download any visual studio code extension from the visual studio extensions marketplace as far as my experience goes. There’s a “download extension” link for every extension which will give you a *.vsix file. Only pity is that you won’t get any automatic updates for the extension.

    8 just took a look and the VS marketplace website on my mobile and look at what I have found under the “resources” section!
