Need online and/or local html/javascript apps
Posted: Fri 13 Jul 2018, 20:10
Looking for suggestions for online and/or local html/javascript for common applications.
Currently I have a reasonable Calculator (local copy). Googledocs obviously for diary/calendar, spreadsheets, word processor ...etc. My current (local copy of html/javascript) text editor is OK, load and save .txt files, but does lose its content if I switch to another tab. I've yet to check out the functionality of online audacity and video editing links that I've been passed. Image editing and conversion (and posting) choices that work OK. Weather, conversion etc. links are also common. As are radio, music, videos ...etc.
In mind is to run just a basic OS system, along with a browser, chrome/note ...etc book style. Actually running openbsd and iridium browser (which seems to work really well with googledocs). i.e. minimise the number of locally installed additional programs and mostly run off the net (high speed hard wired connection). 9MB latest version install file, 5 minute automated installation startup (to gui desktop) time (acceptable, as I'm used to hitting the power on button and going off to make a cup of coffee and have the system ready and waiting by the time I get back to the PC). I've opted for cwm for its simplicity of configuration (handful of lines in each of .xinitrc, .cwmrc and .Xdefaults), but flexibility and transparency of usage (nice gui desktop once you're familiar with the limited number of keycodes).
I have my own one time pad encryption for storing (limited number of) files in the cloud in encrypted format, where the key (same size as the file) is stored locally. Other (majority) of files are stored in the cloud unencrypted (unconcerned about the content).
