I cannot relate to this problem. The namespace is rarely a single "word". If you [follow PSR-4](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-4/), you will create namespaces based on the directory structure - thus there would be no collisions possible.
The naming does not help at all, they could've just called it "The window to Windows", since it's mostly a tool to connect to a Windows device ("PC", in their terms) from a Mac.
I wish they offered a Windows->Mac connector, as smooth and seamless as RDC (Windows->Windows). RDC is such a great and unbeatable solution, but it only works properly for Windows to Windows connections (Linux is doable, but experience is not great, not even close to native).
But they're clearly trying to get more Windows licenses sold, so they have no reason to support people doing work on other OSes.
I would not call it an achievement, per se, but my repository Timelined(https://github.com/andriussev/timelined) gained over 400 stars. Haven't really had a repository that had stars before.
I have yet to determine how I become a multi-billionaire from this achievement :)
Would love to see VueJS in that test. Considering it has over 12 thousand stars on Github it does seem much more credible than some other libraries used in the test.
The Github link for the tests does not include the node requirements which makes it hard to do the tests myself.
Regarding the design part: I usually find a couple of landing pages that I like and create something similar with the colors I prefer. Or buy one from ThemeForest.
Back-end: Whatever I prefer at the time. If you're building a project with RoR, it does not mean that the landing page has to be done with that. A simple PHP/NodeJS app works great since it can be much faster to build.
All in all, I try not to spend too much time on the landing page. Usually, more time is spent figuring out what's best to show on the page itself than building it.
The docs do seem to be a little lacking - it's mostly technical stuff about methods and might not be what the developer is looking for. Looking at documentations from Laravel, SailsJS, even Django, it's easier to get the point of what you're expected to do to get X done.
Other notes on the documentation:
* Very little info on how the templates (views) work. Can I use a different engine for them? No info about that.
* (just as an example of many) I've noticed that a scheduler is implemented and that it's mentioned in the site. It is also noted on github that there's no info on the scheduler yet. So, why would you include the features that no one will be able to use unless they're willing to get into the source code of Nodal itself?
I see that the project has been going for almost a year now and it looks like it's going a great direction. Just needs a more user friendly documentation to be fully usable, I'd say.
I use DBeaver daily and it is probably not the best tool in the lot (well, it probably is if we're only looking at free ones) but I have become quite accustomed to it.
That said, I use PHPStorm and maybe DataGrip will complement the knowledge of JetBrains IDEs.
I'll give it at least a few hours of SQL work and get back.
EDIT: Well, apparently I won't have a couple of hours fiddling with the tool considering that it does not really work as I expect it to.
* Added a MySQL connection, can't seem to be able to work with multiple databases unless I create multiple data sources. That's weird.
* Selecting a specific DB (what I don't really want to do) still shows me the wrong table list from a different DB. 'Forget Schemas' does not work. Weirdly enough, I can query the DB I selected, it just won't resolve the table names (and do autocomplete).
Though, it's probably just me having this problem since there's no way this would go through the testing phase.
EDIT2: The price is also way too much in my opinion. It basically costs as much as PHPStorm. Not sure why you would by DataGrip instead of Navicat.
I do like ESET but I do have a machine where I don't use an antivirus and have chosen to only run a Firewall in interactive mode (block/allow stuff as it tries to communicate with the internet), Windows 10 Firewall Control Free works well (it also works on Windows7/8, it's just called that).
If you don't mind waiting for a month or so (depends on your location), you probably won't find anything cheaper unless you live in China/Singapore or buy bulk :)
Ah well. I recently (a week ago) started a new project with the Arduino and then they release this beast. It's basically cheaper than an Arduino (except that there's no storage in the Pi) AND faster than the Arduino.
Sure, it won't have the same IO capabilities as there's much more layers but it will be pretty close and I don't really need great performance anyways.
I guess, I'll have to switch to the Pi, it's not even a fair race at this point.
(luckily for me, I was mostly writing the SaaS that would work with the Arduino and only spent about a full day's work doing C/C++ coding so far)
Regarding monetisation - I've tried getting into Google AdSense but they would not like the content on the website. Tried a few other ad networks but they all looked like crooks and just decided on keeping the whole thing ad free for the time being :)
Most of the traffic that came in when I was working on it came from Reddit. Looks like, currently, the traffic also comes from mostly Reddit (over 40%), Twitter and Facebook (9-10% each).
Currently, the traffic does seem to have settled and is pretty low. But that's considering that I'm not putting any more work since I'm more interested in newer projects.
I do not like these types of posts when I can't actually see, try the product and it is kind of annoying since I kind of got hooked but will have to drop my email to some company that hopefully won't sell it to some ad company :(
