@jensimmons hi Jen! enjoyed your appearance on shop talk. you said to reach out if devs have safari q’s, so!

could you furnish us with an up-to-date list of splash screen image sizes for pwas? I tried using https://github.com/elegantapp/pwa-asset-generator but alas it’s not showing an image for my iphone 15

seems like a lot of overhead also. thanks!

A quick blog post to raise awareness of our favourite browser extension, #svgGobbler.

It’s both incredibly useful and beautifully designed.

Essential for designers/web devs, it finds all SVG images on a webpage and displays a preview with links to copy or download the images directly as svgs or pngs.

Blogged: we found getting a puppeteer scraper (for @gigbot) working in Netlify functions a real PITA.

But we did!

So we made a demo app + repo so hopefully others won’t have to tread the same miserable path we just did
