Oxide and Friends
RFDs: The Backbone of Oxide

There are a bunch of RFDs that everyone should read, but for most people, there's a smaller group which are kind of really pertinent to their work.

And I think that we can use something like that to generate reading lists for people that, that join and they can, they can kind of, they don't feel like they're just losing their mind, like drinking from the fire was trying to read everything to, to, to get up and running.

Yeah, and it's such an obvious thing, but then afterwards it felt kind of magical, as if a few of those moments where I kind of added something and it just sort of, I think, transformed at least the way I use the RFD site. Full text search is one of them getting kind of discussion in line on the RFD site. Okay.

There's been a few versions of it. And I think like I kind of have a love-hate relationship with ASCII doc. I think it's amazing because it is so versatile and it is so painful because it's so versatile. You can create so much and I'm aware of a small subset of features. The RFD site is the place to check

like a renderer for ASCII doc, because you will see every version of, uh, of, of any way which you can use. That's good. It has been used on the RFD site and that will get kind of an issue now and again. And I'm just baffled. Cause I'm like, I didn't even know this was possible.

You should see the stuff people are doing. But the thing is, it's... It's really rewarding doing this stuff, but there's a balance, right? I don't want to spend all of my time working on like an ASCII doc renderer and kind of the styling for this thing if it's just kind of used in one place. And I think one way in which we have worked around that is we've embraced ASCII doc.

I'm using ASCII doc for everything. So our doc site is built on ASCII doc, our RFD site, and the blog posts on the marketing site are all ASCII doc.

So what we have there is, and that in tandem with our design system, our colors, our typography, all of that stuff is unified across both kind of product and internal sites, which is unusual because usually you have your product design system and then you have some other designers who kind of are off like playing in the sandpit, doing like the website, doing whatever they want. I'm doing both.

So I can have a unified system. And what it means is... when we, when I, when I do the styling for the kind of RFD site it's shared across all these places. So I can justify spending a bit of time on these things because, um, Because it's so useful.
