With so much AI-produced junk out there, sites like this one are a breath of fresh air. Simple, aesthetic with real educational value. A second place this week (after https://www.makingsoftware.com/) where I've happily parked a few hours of my life.
Out of curiosity, I presume you were working on the frontend part using Clojurescript? Have you used some kind of wrappers around htmx or just a simple js interop was enough?
Love the minimalistic approach. May I ask what library have you used for chart?
Not a book, but you might find it helpful https://mukulrathi.com/create-your-own-programming-language/...
Key lesson learnt here - lesson that most of us either already learnt or will learn pretty soon: detach emotionally yourself from company you work for. Usually easier said than done, but saves a lot of headache in situations like this. Invest your emotions into your family, beloved ones. Treat company as business partner - with respect and limited trust. It goes contrary to popular (particularly in western culture) trends to treat your employer as a second family, sharing your emotions almost publicly and expecting everyone to understand and support you. Sad truth is that at the end nobody really cares about your emotions or bad feeling, no matter what happiness-managers try to prove, business is business. Your family, your spouse are ones who should care.
As mentioned before - don't burn bridges. People who you were working with might become your business partners one way or the other in the future. Embrace this situation as a lesson learnt. It will make you more aware and stronger. Take care.
