" Storytlr is an open source lifestreaming and micro blogging platform. You can use it for a single user or it can act as a host for many people all from the same installation." I've been looking for something like Storytlr for a few months now or at least trying to do it with Drupal . While I love Drupal and FeedAPI I did not want to spend all that time building a lifestream website. So I've been playing around with Storytlr instead and found it very easy. Here is how I got it up and running on a Ubuntu EC2 server. You can also check out the official Storytlr install instructions . Assumptions: LAMP stack installed and running. Domain setup for a directory. MySQL database and user ready to go. Lets get started!

Originally published on bendyworks.com . For the last post before the month's wrap up tomorrow, I wanted to do something more fun: use a hero animation between the home page list and the individual post page. When I first implemented the Hero animation it never worked going back from a PostPage to the HomePage . The reason was that HomePage would get rerendered and that would generate new fake posts . So I moved the fake data generation up a level to MyApp and pass it into HomePage . This is more realistic as going to the HomePage shouldn't request the Post s every time. HomePage ( title: 'Birb' , posts: _loadPosts ( context ), ) The PostPage implementation is a simple StatelessWidget that takes Post and renders a PostItem . This will become more complex as things like comments and likes are implemented but works for now. class Pos...
