Ubuntu 20.04 on a 15" Retina MacBook Pro (Mid-2014)

Ubuntu 20.04 on a 15" Retina MacBook Pro (Mid-2014)

These are notes from my efforts to get Ubuntu 20.04 installed on my older MacBook Pro. I'm making this gist public in the hopes that it's helpful to others.

I did a Minimal install, but selected the option to install additional 3rd-party drivers.

Wifi doesn't work during the install (because it requires a 3rd-party driver), so you won't be able to choose to download updates while installing. No big deal, run a software update after the install.

The installer takes about 25 minutes to complete. Post-install, most things work. The only driver I had to manually install was for the FaceTime camera. More on that below.

TKTK Outstanding Copy Highlighter

TKTK

Tktk short for "To Come" in publishing is a simple placeholder highlighting library. Load this file on your latest project to highlight all the areas that still need copy, links, or final imagery. To highlight items, simply do one of the following:

Images: Either add a tktk class to the img tag or add #tktk to the image source.

Copy: Either add a tktk class to the element, or start the copy with "tktk"

For all elements that are "to come", copy will be highlighted in a nice, obvious magenta and images bordered in a 2px magenta border (using box-shadow so as not to affect layout).

CSS3 Transitions for Dashing Dashboards

Flying Widgets adds CSS3 transitions to your dashboard, allowing you to cycle through multiple widget sets on a single TV without page reloads, using stylish CSS3 transitions. You can even still re-order your widgets and save their locations!

Note that sinatra-cyclist is a potential alternative if the machine you use to display your dashboards is lacking in graphics horsepower.

To use, put this file in assets/javascripts/cycleDashboard.coffee. Then find this line in application.coffee:

    $('.gridster ul:first').gridster
