Cheers from Donors
I wanted to share a little side project I've been doing for fun...
Our Paypal link includes a memo field, which Inkscape's donors have used to say some very nice things over the years, that deserve to be shared with you all:
http://alpha.inkscape.org/cheers/
This is a simple applet to cycle through the non-blank donation memos, from today backwards. It refreshes daily, although Paypal processing adds a few days lag so it's not up to the minute.
For those of a more technical bent, the full data is at http://alpha.inkscape.org/cheers/cheers.json. I'm posting that in the open in hopes it can get integrated and used in other places; no changes are planned for the data file format, so consider that stable.
The code itself for the React.js applet I've stuck on github here:
https://github.com/bryceharrington/cheers-carousel
I'd like to improve the styling a bit, but otherwise am done with this for now. Eventually this is going to be integrating into other finance displaying scripts I'm working on... but that'll be news for some other day.
Enjoy!
Bryce
Nice! And quite motivational. Iay cherry pick some to include in the 1.0 release video when we solidify a date.

Nice, thanks! Sometimes the message overflows the viewport though.

Styling adjustments are done. Found some nifty looking SVG patterns for the background to jazz it up a bit more.
