Beyond simply copying and pasting the url, I've decided on two additional use cases for sharing from my platform:
- Republishing on other publishing platforms (Medium, Hashnode, etc)
- Republishing on microblogging platforms (Twitter/X, Bluesky, Threads)
- Republishing on other publishing platforms (Medium, Hashnode, etc)

CodeCook.live is a publishing platform. First up, I simplified the buttons on the user’s list of sessions:
• Copy link (the most common way to share)
• Share button (to open the dialog we are about to build)
• Go Live (for starting a CodeCook live code session)

I'm starting up a new CodeCook session on rethinking the traditional share dialog for sharing content. Follow along on this post thread as we explore how I can make sharing better on my publishing platform for live coding. #buildinpublic

And with that our projects page looks much nicer!

As a bonus, I added a button to the `EditProjectForm` to allow people to easily generate a new screenshot for their project using this same function.

I’m starting to share this little project I’ve been working on and one thing that stands out to me is that the Profile and Project pages are a bit plain. I'm going to share my progress here in this thread. As a starting point, here is what the profile page looks like right now. #buildinpublic

Finished adding chat to CodeCook. Looking forward to my next live code session be a little more "live" #buildinpublic

My prompt to Cursor: I want to refactor the chat interface to be a twitch chat drawer on the right that pushes the content over. It takes a quite a few prompts and ultimately actual manual coding (😱 the horror!!!) to get it right. github.com/johnnybuilds...

In my last session on my publishing platform live coding, I started to add chat. Now I’m going to pick up from where I left off, starting with a UI refactor. Here’s a screenshot of where we’re at.

I've been tracking follower growth of 100+ #buildinpublic accounts for a few months now. Originally, Bluesky was the clear leader for getting followers, especially for those that don’t already have a big audience. Unfortunately, 𝕏 has caught back up. I'm still hopeful for 🦋 but it is concerning

I’ve got live coding working on my publishing platforming for live coding. I’m thinking of calling live coding for introverts. I also have no idea what I’m doing 🙃 but its fun as hell #buildinpublic

V0 makes it really easy to spin up UI so I v0.dev/chat/OMHzSZls86A?b=b_kYHGhXeupDf:
↱ Landing page for CodeCook.live, a site for live coding in post thread format. Share and learn with the community as you build in public.

Then there's the matter of the text limit. We need to do all this markdown transformation then intelligently split it into posts that are less than 300 characters. Thanks goodness for Cursor!

I'm building a publishing platform for live coding (currently just working on the publishing part). Problem 1 is to intelligently convert the markdown to text in a post. Images are particularly tricky.

Changed it. Not really an "editor" - this a live code cooking session manager. Still more to improve, but this is where I'm at now.
