I did.

Then I concatenated and minified a bunch of them and put them back. And it has part of a md5 hash on the name and is finally cached for awhile on your browser. So that puts us up to around 2010 web development tooling/implementation

So happened to read an article on minifying and concatenation of java scripts, to just do a single load and web page execution greatly improving performance. Definitely second decade of the twenty-first century. 😂

We have moved a lot of our css/js/html development over to a node.js workflow which is making things a lot easier for us both for development and for being able to concatenate and minify. We are also starting to use Foundation 6 (a CSS framework) and SASS (a CSS precompiler) as well. As I said, this is more about catching up then anything revolutionary, but I'm glad we are getting there.

Soo.. now development is easier what are the chances of someone fixing the screwed up date formats? It's one of those bugs that a tech living and working in the US probably wouldn't notice, but that irks if you don't. Try swapping your browser settings to use en-GB. Dates should then appear as DD/MM/YY

From My Contribution


At least there is some consistency now, in as much that all pages seem to be using US date format. For a time just after the last site re-design it was 50/50 (sometimes US and UK on the same page). But since this is supposed to be World Community Grid rather than US Community Grid perhaps formatting dates according to either ISO date format YY-MM-DD, or -even better - using the local date format specified by the users browser could be easily achieved?

As no-one else has mentioned it, what's up with the forum formatting again? Kevin? It changed yesterday for me (Firefox 49.0.1, Win10). Dev tools shows https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/generated/js/wcg_19174be16f.js and https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/generated/css/wcg_0d10cc74d6.css giving a 404 response.
