In response to rakleed's GitHub issue, NiM now follows the system theme (dark/light) by default. As well, the old functionality of independent light/dark mode is maintained via a new setting "Override System Theme". Pretty straight forward, enjoy!

BrakeCODE + NiM Alert Feature

BrakeCODE + NiM Alert Feature

Gazing into multiple monitors each day and in turn multiple tabs of multiple windows of said multiple monitors (I'm back down to 4 now)... I wanted a way to quickly identify when my builds were finishing without obviously going back to the browser tab where I had GitHub opened... and

NiMV3 (Google Chrome Manifest V3) Update

NiMV3 (Google Chrome Manifest V3) Update

So I spent the better part of this week working on migrating NiM to mv3 and so far so good. It was actually refreshing to dig through old code to see how my own coding skills have improved (or maybe that's just a pipe dream)... anyway, huge changes have been

Intelligent Pandemic Grocery Shopping

Covid19 has forced a paradigm shift for many of us when it comes to our purchasing... in particular groceries. Both a curse and a blessing, shopping for groceries on Amazon has become the new normal for many as the ballooning of Mr. Bezos' wealth is a tribute to. As is

express-jwt-authz with Restify support

Per the suggestion by @adamjmcgrath https://github.com/auth0/express-jwt-authz/pull/45, express-jwt-authz has been forked to support restify. Cheers! From https://github.com/auth0/express-jwt-authz/pull/45... Pretty basic change to support Restify's response object. Currently I'm using restify with express-jwt and express-jwt-authz but ran into a failure when

Bridge to Ngrok tunnels

Bridge to Ngrok tunnels

Recently I decided to use Ngrok while developing a new application locally. It consisted of a webhook which is meant to be called from the auth provider which in this case is Auth0. So to make the local server endpoint easily accessible to Auth0's servers, I used Ngrok. Ngrok is

Share Those Debug Sessions!

Pair programming per Wikipedia is defined as: an agile software development technique in which two programmers work together at one workstation.

Self Signed x509 Cert and Vue CLI (Webpack)

I just spent longer than I would have liked resolving this issue. Hopefully this post helps some others. While using a self signed certificate generated by openssl (from Ubuntu running under WSL2 on Windows 10... in case you care) for local development of the Brakecode.com dashboard using Vue CLI,

Chromium Bug 900945 Affecting NiM

So this is likely affecting lots of NiM users but there is a quick and easy workaround until the problem is fixed upstream. The fix... Open DevTools manually with the keyboard shortcut F12 or Control+Shift+I on Linux/Windows or Command+Option+I on Mac. Read more about the

Node.js Diagnostic Reports

Node.js Diagnostic Reports

The idea to add this feature to NiM came from the GitHub issue listed below as well as all of the recent talk about the new hotness that is Node 12 and 13. So what is Node Diagnostic Report(s)/Reporting? In short, it's a cool feature that... Delivers a

Inspect Node.js With Grunt-SWATCH (!watch) And Fiveo

I know, I know... the socket in the cover picture isn't really the type of socket we're talking about in this post, but I've been preoccupied lately with the idea of building a new workstation and the ThreadRipper is a monster! I mean it might actually be the solution to

LightGallery Plugin for NodeBB

LightGallery Plugin for NodeBB

I just started using NodeBB about a week ago. A project came up that required the use of a forum and being that I have such an affinity towards Node.js... the results of my search for open source forum software quickly narrowed down to NodeBB. Previously I've used both

A while ago I wrote a post about DevTools missing the source tree... So oddly the DevTools versions of late have been missing the source file tree normally found on the left hand side of the debugger under Sources > Page: At the end of that short post I wrote about

Use Ansible to Setup Google MX Records

Use Ansible to Setup Google MX Records

We've all done it. After purchasing that shiny new domain name from our favorite registrar (one of mine happens to be namecheap), we go to set it up. Part of that setup likely includes changing the domain's MX records to point to "your own" mail servers, of which there is

Node.js Governance Similar to Parler Elimination by Big Tech?

TL;DR A Project (my project in fact)... NiM which has been linked from Nodejs.org's site for years, was removed because of (in my opinion) nepotism toward corporations, and a governance model which is currently operating on an uneven playing field. I should add that my intent is in

More than "UX sugar"

More than "UX sugar"

Node.js V8 --inspector Manager (NiM) "adds some nice UX sugar on top"... of Node.js debugging. That's for sure. However now that the DevTools team has built in a solution for the UUID problem, some have disparaged NiM, out of what I would call ignorance of the capabilities of

Absolute Simplest Node.js Debugging - VSCode/DevTools

In my opinion, debugging Node.js (Node) code hasn't ever been that big of a pain point, largely because of the excellent debugger baked into Node, which has been the case for at least as long as I've been involved with writing software in Node. Python for me is an

Squash Node Bugs with DevTools on Edge

With the newest release of Microsoft's Edge browser, installing Chrome Web Store extensions on Edge is now possible as Edge is now built upon the Chromium code base. Further, Chrome DevTools is also included in Edge. And with the final piece of the puzzle being NiM (Chrome Web Store link)

Development Workflow - Sublime Text Plugin (python)

While writing my first ever Sublime Text plugin, I had a hell of a time figuring out a proper development workflow that worked for me and even searching on ST's forum didn't really turn up anything helpful. A few of the problems I experienced were 1. Code changes not being
