This was a pretty chill week for me. I’ve been making some progress on the Comet proof-of-concept, writing a very basic frontend in Phoenix & LiveView with no CSS so I’m down in the nitty-gritty. It’s been working really well! I got a super basic upload form done (with limited transcoding of uploaded audio) and I love how easy it was.
yippee

Next week will be spent refining how the form works (hoping I can figure out if it’s possible to stream a upload into ffmpeg and then into their PDS in one go, to make it much faster) and extending atex with some new functionality to make this possible, and to bring it up to scratch in terms of featureset.
I also had a day trip down to my old place to pick up a package I wasn’t able to redirect, as well as some smaller things I had forgotten to pack during the move. Perks of still having housemates at an old house.
