Huh!
A new button appeared on my website.

Even though there are countless music players out there, I still haven’t found one that fits my needs on my laptop.

So, over the last couple of days, I couldn’t hold myself back and started building my own in my free time.

Maybe - just maybe - I spent most of that time on the visualization.

For my fellow web developers who are wondering about risk mitigation when using npm:

The freshly created assets...

Just before I start building one myself out of desperation:

Does anyone know a purely FOSS API testing client (Postman, Insomnia alternative)?

With Git integration, Websocket, GraphQL support, and no cloud login.

I've created a little website that keeps track of the currently most edited and most controversial Wikipedia articles.

The idea was to create a real time monitoring tool for ongoing edit wars.

#editwars #wikipedia #webdev

The tax program fatally crashes on the file picker dialog whenever I navigate to a folder that contains a file with non standard ASCII character in the name.

It seems the development team practice #shipfastandbreakthings haven't used a software that's that buggy for a year now :)

Happy late night prototyping ✨

Asset creation is one of the most time-consuming parts of being a solo game developer. But a party game without different characters wouldn't be much fun. Here's my first attempt at two simple stylized characters.

After 2 days of technical improvements to our web based party game including full k8s deployment, it was finally time to create the first character prototype.

I am still learning the basics of the 3D art pipeline for game assets, so bear that in mind.

More progress on the party game we're making. Still hyped about the possibilities of smartphones as an input device.

I've recently made my third or fourth attempt to create a 3D renderer from scratch, this time using Rust and the Vulkan API. I've progressed further than in any previous attempt, managing to load and render a custom 3D shape and implement basic Phong lighting on the shader side.

I've written my first blog post that should explain why it's important to use a #foss menstrual cycle tracking app instead of commercial alternatives.
