This was an absolute delight to read! Usually when you read security-related write-ups, the fun comes from the cleverness of the techniques …but this involved nothing cleverer than dev tools. In this instance, the fun is in the telling of the tale.
The design system for the Australian government is a work in progress but it looks very impressive. The components are nicely organised and documented.
(I’ve contributed a suggestion for the documentation in line with what I wrote about recently.)
People of Sydney, you’re in luck. Charlotte is starting up a Sydney chapter of Codebar. If you know someone there who is under-represented in the tech industry, and they’re looking to learn how to code, please tell them about this.
Some want to become full-time developers, whereas others want to learn the basics of coding to enhance their current jobs. Some want to learn programming as a hobby. Whatever the reason, we’d love to see you there!
Also, if you’re a developer in Sydney, please consider becoming a tutor at Codebar.
I promise that tutoring is not scary! We ask that you let us know which areas you feel comfortable tutoring when you sign up, so you choose what you teach. It’s absolutely okay to not know answers during sessions, but knowing how to look for them is helpful.
Oh, and if you’ve got a space in Sydney that can accommodate a class, please, please consider become a Codebar sponsor.
I believe this may be Australia’s first open device lab. I hope it’s the first of many.

A Sydney-based food blog that includes an event calendar (sadly not hCalendar). I'm going to trawl through the archives.
