NodeBB's topic list layout is great for written and media-light content, although it is less ideal for categories which predominately feature pictures. I recently ran into this issue with the Pics and Trips category on the OpenBeta Community. While we've made some much-needed TLC and improvements so that topic thumbnails are better handled and displayed, I did not feel they were adequately prioritised for this particular category.

So I wrote the Category Masonry plugin for NodeBB!

In brief:

  • Configurable; either by category or by percentage of topics with a topic thumbnail/image
  • Overrides the partials/topic_list.tpl template to display cards
  • Works with custom themes (will correctly override the theme's category.tpl, or the base theme's category.tpl if your theme does not have its own)

“Should masonry be part of CSS grid?” by @shadeed9

> An exploration of examples showing masonry as both a part of CSS Grid and as its own display type.

Ahmad provides compeling use cases and code examples showing that making masonry layout “just” a specific use case for CSS Grid could be the best choice.

So… that's not what I thought a month ago… 😅

Anyway, the most important part in…

My Dad was a francophile #architect, he used to restore old and ancient buildings. He was very interested in the crafts of #masonry and #woodwork, and he once told me about a French organisation that worked to preserve old crafts.

It's name translated badly to English, outils dans la main (tools in the hand) but I've been thinking about all the skills and relationships we'll need to maintain for a #LowCarbon #degrowth future.
