Awful lot of strings that should have been integers. It is JavaScript, though, so I guess that tracks.

Everything’s a string 😢

Hopefully that’s not a resting heart rate.

If only fitness apis were actually that easy
wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 11 months ago
But a json file is used for storing settings and the like, not for providing real-time data, yeah?
felbane@lemmy.world 11 months ago
API calls often return json. It’s just a data format.
TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Yep. I have a buddy who’s whole job is parsing that and displaying it on dashboards.

I think:
- that’s the joke
- this is just a watchface template, not an actual file being updated constantly

/sys/
: am I some kind of joke to you?To be fair you won’t find Jason there. But plenty of files that provide real time information about the system!
Daxtron2@startrek.website 11 months ago
No it’s used for all types of data transfer and real time data as well.
A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I mean, I’ve never used JSONs before but I imagine you could still write to them in realtime at least, as inefficient as that sounds lol. So you could probably get the same results on an actual text editor if you could modify it to update the text automatically when it detects a change instead of prompting the user

That’s something I think I’d like to use, but I don’t know if could get over the fact that neither the date nor the time are in ISO 8601 format.

This is great

im confused as to why it doesn’t use variables? this is pretty interesting to see though
felbane@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I unironically love this and would use it as my watch face just to get a reaction from my coworkers. Link?
