## third round
- emerging patterns
- great interest in developing tools & writing machines
- lot of them
- often with (half-baked) documentation
- or with documentation that could be further inflated
- with new eyes so to say after thes
- _idea_
- a toolkit of writing machines
- created in the context of the soupboat
- with curated documentation
- that offers not only reference on how to use the writing machines
- but also provides context around specific choices made during development
- a way to use code documentation to flesh worlds around these tools
- _sections_
- context: soupboat
- index of writing machines
- documentation for every writing machine
- thoughts around document situated software
- thoughts around future of the soupboat
- focus points for selection
- what worked
- what didnt
- outputs
- _digital_
- website?
- (admittedly im a bit bored of that)
- see opening of wlist readme
- "A small writing machine to experiment the list format. It’s again web-to-print, it’s again flask, it’s again markdown, it’s again it’s again it’s again. I’m 30% sorry."
- (that could be a nice trigger )
- but it's probably the most viable option
- could it be something different??
- really inspired by soft serve
- publishing through ssh
- [charm.sh](https://charm.sh/)
- _physical_
- could make use of all the things learned with [birds press](https://hub.xpub.nl/soupboat/~kamo/projects/birds-press/), [catalog](https://git.xpub.nl/kamo/birds-press)
- would be nice to have something that fit the shop format
- or even just a small pubblication
- legs
- _grad show_
- i have contrasting feelings about exhibiting something on a computer
- at the same time it's easier to relate with a writing machine and its surroundings hands-on
- but the entry point through which relate for the audience could not be in the writing machine, but in the documentation
- that makes sense
- the whole point of this toolkit is to bring documentation practices in foreground
- the tools are more like supports to sustain this continuous thinking process
- like legs 👀
- like 3d printed legs such as the ones for the soupboat
## round 4
- publishing a series of readme files
- of significative documentations
- (significative for different reasons!)
- (style, writing methods, contents, etc.)
- for writing machines developed in the context of the soupboat
- additional focus points:
- thoughts around document situated software
- thoughts around future of the soupboat
- padliography -> situated software
- workbook -> collaborative
- exquisite branch / exex -> versioning
- si16 -> multi author
- _padliography_
- __what's there__
- intro
- catchy features!
- quick start
- how does it work / ecosystem
- development
- license
- __what's missing__
- from where it comes from
- serve behind reverse proxy
- updated api documentation
- interaction with the wiki
- deleting by accident chae's pages in the wiki
- choices made in development:
- vue?
- wiki?
- beautiful soup?
- hosting and hospitality
- multiple tables
- situated?
- constant padology is a good reference to create a context
- default pages
- environmental variable and credentials for the wiki
- future?
- example: installing it on the breadcube
- _workbook_
- developed together with supi!!!
- so also could be a place to try pair documenting
- __what's there__
- intro and overview
- add instrument
- export from Figma
- export from inkscape
- __what's missing__
- what + why / intentions
- add patch
- add snippet
- clone / development
- code documentation and tool documentation blend
- choices made in development:
- custom instruments
- flexibility accessibility performance goat
- situated?
- future?
- collaborative?
- _xbranch_ _exex_
- exex is a version of xbranch
- no documentation at all for xbranch
- started documenting
- __what is there__
- intro
- install
- overview
- __what is missing__
- development
- serve behind reverse proxy
- documentation from the api
- examples!
- background behind development? previous versions?
- situated?
- future?
- versioning?
- ok plan is to start these and then see what happens
## round 5
- to make your code run faster
- to make your code run everywhere
- to make your code run amok
- what is it?
- a series of small pubblications
- readme files
- for code developed around the soupboat
- with 3d printed legs
- to make them run faster
- optional: could include thesis
- imagine it as an ecosystem
- with different zones
- soupboat
- wiki
- git
- browser
- real people
- every code is situated different in this ecosystem
- in ways that are too complex to explain precisely outside the documentation
- but can be depicted easily using a mapping approach
- it also does not need to be super precise
- and can be playful enough to lure people in
- while at the same time offer an intuitive way of how these software are oriented in the world
- 3d legs sketch
- start from soupboat's legs
- target an A6 pubblication
- 148x105mm
- with hard cover where to plug the legs
- even on the fly
- with a drilling machine
- and a lock system to attach the legs
- composables
- 2 or 3 kind of legs that can be combinated
- straight
- L shaped
## round 6
- Try this simple trick to make your server run 4x faster
- to make your code run faster
- and other code documentation attempts
- a collection of readme files
- accessible through a website
- website is a hub that links to the repo
- in order to access the files directly in their natural environment
- __how to make your server run 4x faster__
- and other _placeholder_ code documentation _placeholder_
- open your terminal and enter the following command
- `curl -O https://projects.xpub.nl/how-to-make-your-server-run-4x-faster/legs.stl`
- this will save an stl file with 4x legs in your working directory
- 3d print the two pairs of legs and install them on your server
- note: remember to adjust the size of the 3d printed file to fit with the dimensions of your server!
- this specs are tailored to a small self-hosted Raspberry Pi 4
- if your server is running on a different piece of hardware things could need an adjustment
- however it's not in the scope of this documentation to cover all possible cases
- reboot and congratulations
- your server now run 4x faster
