It's almost ready for a ShowHN. I just have to get the websockets working!
The idea is to enter terms as you come across them. This could be from classroom materials such as a textbook, or from sources encountered in your daily life such as an article, book, or conversation. The terms entered become part of your repertoire. More frequently encountered terms are prioritized during study sessions. One of the difficult parts about learning Japanese and Chinese is the number of characters that must be learned. The app helps here too, by prioritizing the most commonly encountered characters as well.
Studying is done typical flash cards and a built-in writing journal. The flash cards are pretty simple to begin with but I imagine them getting more capable over time if the app catches on.
I'm working on bot implementation for my latest game[1]. I only ever made bots for my first game[2] but it was a breeze then. Now I needed to setup waypoints, pathfinding algorithms and some funky chasing logic but frankly I'm loving it. It's amazing how fruitful javascript community is! Libraries like rbush[3] (and really just a lot of different things by mourner) and ngraph.path[4] make things so much easier. [1] h…
I am developing a modern wikipedia interface - a Vuejs powered modern, single page, progressive, offline capable web application for Wikipedia. I have been working on this for last several months and have working version available at https://wikipedia.thottingal.in Source code and more details available at https://github.com/santhoshtr/wikivue It is a fully client side PWA application using wikipedia web apis, instal…
I’m working on a tool that allows developers to record and playback interactive, guided walkthroughs of a codebase, directly from their editor. It’s called CodeTour, and it’s currently available as a VS Code extension: https://aka.ms/codetour . I built it because I frequently find myself looking to onboard (or “reboard”) to a project, and not knowing exactly where to start. After speaking to a bunch of other develope…
Currently building a web drawing program that can create custom data visualizations. Think “no code D3”.
It has required some pretty cool tech. I’ve essentially built a reactive expression evaluator in typescript. This allows me to do things like “rectangle.height = foo + bar”. It’ll then setup “foo” and “bar” as dependencies of “rectangle.height”, watch them for changes, re-evaluate the expression, and update the rectangles height.
I enjoy doing interactive art on the side. e.g. https://nicholasbardy.com/, but I've always hacked it out on my own. I've recently been studying some of the state of the art techniques(Signed Distance Functions) and I'm excited to make something running on the GPU.
Over the holidays I studied Signed Distances func
The original codebase was written for iOS 4. Feels like a lifetime ago.
It allows you to create your own workout from scratch and tracks your progress. I built it to give users users complete freedom over their workout; you control the sets/reps, the rest-time, and even notifications (or lack thereof).
The project is still in its infancy and I am adding new features as we speak (:
