One of the things promised for the next phase of Open Banking in the UK was an open API for managing subscription payments from banks (something like Direct Debits, or "commercial variable recurring payments (cVRP)" in their terminology). As in: one day you'd have one-click set-up for subscriptions, and manage them all via banking/finance apps.
As an outsider it's hard to determine the current status, but apparently this might be in beta by the end of the year?

Reviewing some #aspnetcore Minimal API endpoint code today, and the need to inject every dependency, even a “RedirectManager”, feels like a code smell.
There is an elegance to an MVC endpoint or Razor Page that exists in a self-aware context.

Yeah, I knew some lovely people who worked at Twitter too. And did you know they once had unfettered API access and anyone could create their own client? Some of us loved that so much we built things that helped legitimise them as an open platform. And then one day they just switched that off.
Legitimacy is gold to venture-capital-funded startups. They need people with it to convince everyday folks that this latest iteration of the same old rug pull is different. Until they’ve grown s…

I haven’t added an example of how you implement migrations with Kitten’s¹ built-in JSDB database² yet but here’s one that I just used when renaming a field (property) in a table (JavaScript object) from “account” to “data” that illustrates the general granular approach you should take within persisted instances of JavaScript classes.
This is, of course, an advanced use case of the built-in JavaScript database that all Kitten apps have.
Kitten is simple for simple use cases. So ch…
