« Et si nous en avions assez ? » Est-ce que matériellement, nous serions pas en situation de satiété ?
Not owning things is a privilege.
It is a privilege to say: “I don’t need a spare in case of emergency.”
It is a privilege to say: “I know I won’t need this in the future.”
And it is a privilege to afford quality products that will last you close to a lifetime instead of having to re-buy stuff.
and the author lifestyle that is better (without the current minimalism "trend").
In my experience, less things also means less distractions, less need for space and less complications.
100% true from my experience.
It’s about contentment, sure. But I also think it’s about knowledge and culture — knowing what you don’t need and what you can get out of life for less.
Index.html, style.css and index.js. 3 files.

Growing up in a poor family, I learned not to waste things, save money, reuse old stuff out of necessity, thus I’ve never approached minimalism from a privileged point of view. Being immersed in hyper consumeristic rituals has never been my experience.
Yup.
The empty big house "promote a way of life that looks unrealistic and fake". About this lifestyle:
Such lifestyle is not attainable by normal people. I mean the regular folks who need to go to work, cook their food, do the laundry, maybe some gardening or else — they can’t afford to spend buckets of money on few hyped products, buy coffee beans from a remote region in South America that cost half a salary at the point of sale. Above all, they cannot keep their place within a spotless private hospital aesthetic, because they actually live in there. They don’t usually give TED talks either, especially not to promote some other form of inspirational American Dream that’s great to sell another book.
They can’t afford to do with less.
No overly animated content.
No scroll jacking.
No excessive storytelling.
Defining a subset of the web that removes a lot of complexity :)
Provide a local index of sites complying with the requirements above, so that sites can be found without the use of an external search engine.
How does this scale? How is the index sorted? That was originally the answer provided by search engines.
I like this lite version where only a searchbar is available.
A minimalist email server without UI
Summarized to:
Fight for Pareto's law, look for the 20% of effort that will give you the 80% of results.
Prioritize, minimalism isn't about not doing things but about focusing first in the important.
Perfect is enemy of good, first do it, then do it right, then do it better.
Kill the baby, don't be afraid of starting all over again. Fail soon, learn fast.
Add value. Think constantly how you can help your team and position yourself in that field/skill.
Basics, first. Follow always a top-down thinking starting by the best-practises of CSS.
Think different. Simple is harder than complex, which means you'll need to use your creativity.
Synthesis is the key of communication. We have to write code for humans not machines.
Keep it plain. Try to keep your designs with few layers of indirection.
Clean kipple and redundancy. Minimalism is all about removing distractions.
Minimal CSS to look great: 58 bytes, 100 bytes, and 100 more bytes.
Styles are based on the HTML tag. This library is small and can be reused very fast.
It seems better for small projects than TailwindCSS.
The description speak for the service itself :
10kb.site is a write-only public text server.
You can upload any text you want at any file
path, as long as it's less than 10kb.Files can never be changed or updated (except this one).
Files are deleted after 1 day.
