Blisk - The Developers Browser

Blisk is a new lightweight browser targeted solely at developers. It contains convenience functionality that eases the testing and debugging processes of building web pages.

The most important feature of Blisk is the side by side mobile device and desktop screen emulation. The workspace is split in two with the mobile device space occupying the left hand side, while the desktop screen the right one. There are many mobile devices (phones and tablets) to choose from, ranging from Iphone4 to Samsung Galaxy S3 and Google Nexus.

It's important to note that Blisk's device emulation is not the simple resizing of viewport's size but it accurately emulates:
  • Screen resolution
  • Device pixel ratio
  • User agent
  • Touch event! (you can test the user experience of working with touch screens)

Greenplum's Cloudberry Fork Enters Apache Incubator

  Cloudberry is the open source equivalent of Greenplum. Now it is fostered by the Apache Foundation as it acquires incubating status. It all began about six months ago. Greenplum's Github repositories was archived and went dark. This meant no more free new releases or security and bug fixes for its users. Why? Because in May 2024, Tanzu made the decision to close-source the project. https://www.i-programmer.info/news/84-database/17694-greenplums-cloudberry-fork-enters-apache-incubator-.html
