Anybody tried it with RubyMotion yet?


@dcope - FYI, its really hard to figure out what you app is based on your blog. And there's no obvious link back to the site root to get more information.


It's not my product. I merely submitted the blog post here since I know there are people on HN that use this service.


Anybody else notice that this is blocked as "spammy" on Facebook?


Getting the same thing here. I did find an acknowledgement from Facebook regarding blocking imgur.com 8 hours ago (http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/wo8ej/facebook_h...), but blocking EyeTap seems suspicious.


same thing here


Random, but does anybody know what color scheme his colors are based on? I'd love to crib that for Vim.


They're using CodeMirror for the in-browser editor and that's the default theme: https://github.com/marijnh/CodeMirror2/blob/master/lib/codem...


the parts that affect clojure have been changed a fair bit from the default theme.


Not completely what you are looking for, but I found a Chris Granger inspired vim theme: https://github.com/chmllr/vim-colorscheme-elrodeo


I might as well throw mine in the ring as well: https://github.com/chrismetcalf/resume (Example: https://github.com/chrismetcalf/resume/blob/master/Chris_Met...).

I like the modernCV format a lot, I'll likely try to crib some features from there.


Nowhere in the article does it seem to be mentioned where they actually got the carrier that's pictured in the article.

The Varyag is an abandoned Russian carrier that was transferred to the Ukrainians after the breakup of the USSR, and finally bought at auction by the Chinese after almost becoming a floating casino.

She's hardly a homebuilt Chinese carrier.


This plus a vim plugin for browsing snips would be awesome.


As soon as the API is built out (it's already kinda-sorta built: http://snipt.net/api), this should be trivial.


Am I the only one who'd basically forgotten about Diaspora until this popped up?


Set up an Apache mod_proxy from port 8080 on your server's localhost to a vhost at showoff.yourdomain.com.

You'll have to make sure to build your app to not make any assumptions about where it's running (ex: links to "http://localhost:3000/path), but you should be doing that anyway.


Yep, that's definitely possible. And yet, again, you have to "setup" something. It's totally okay to do things that way. Two thoughts:

You have to have Apache setup (which, when developing a new project, you may likely not have even reached that point).

You can also save your current file by going to File > Save. But Ctrl/Cmd+S is easier (and probably what you use every day).


With just the most minuscule bit of initial setup a simple bash function using just SSH can replicate all of the functionality (and more) of showoff.io, with just as much ease ('show 3000 subdomain') but hopefully the upcoming features will make it a more viable proposition... :)

Then again, I'm quite happy with a VPS setup since I get all of the extra benefits of having the server around...


> You have to have Apache setup (which, when developing a new project, you may likely not have even reached that point).

Showoff project is definitely cool, but instead of apache, nginx installs in one command and can easily proxy like this with about 10 lines of easily googled config using 1/10 of the resources on a simple prgmr account or the like.


Absolutely. The win here is that you get to stop at "installs in one command". No googling. No configuration. Job is done; share your URL.

A one-liner I wrote that uses git blame to seek out who swears the most in a given codebase. Pretty fun.


When I ran it just said "5" :S
