December Adventure 2024: Day 3
MyCmd Related
I have written MyCmd: Development Update to summarize the work I’ve done this year in MyCmd.
I also pushed a small
commit to add a minimal myproject
file that I can use as a base in new projects. Eventually, I will
have functionality to generate project files using this template. Right
now, the file just exists so I can cp into a new project
and start writing.
I also published a couple small commits to document MyCmd concepts and follow naming conventions: * d4ab1745d779cd55d4e0b8eb6c834d08e9e3bf75: Documenting and Following Conventions for Namespaced Parts * 3bcc589e498bdbfde9a48b8bba290c16d3aaa01e: Documenting and Following Conventions for Source Directories
Tomorrow, I will continue to work on the concepts and conventions documentation and cleanup.
Janet
I started learning the Janet programming language today, by starting to read Janet for Mortals and the official Janet docs.
I found these additional useful resources in my study: * Awesome Janet: A curated list of libraries and tooling for the Janet language * Powered by Janet: A collection of all things written in Janet * JanetDocs: A community documentation site for the Janet language.
I started this simple aspirations project as a first little project to learn Janet. I use a set of what I’ve termed “aspirations” that I repeat to myself while exercising and at other times to focus my mind and remind me of who I am and how I want to live my life. I’ve been doing this for four months now and I have 15 such statements so far, and I write new ones each month. I primarily focus on the new aspirations for the month, but every few days I review statements from past months to keep them fresh. The purpose of the project is two-fold:
- Generate a random list of statements to review on my review days.
- I recently purchased the TRMNL device and I want to write a custom plugin to show a random aspiration on it. This code will push a new statement to the server to be displayed via a webhook.
I’ve got a minimal Janet project created. Tomorrow, I will add a dependency on spork primarily so I can add a task to format my Janet code to my project.
Dot Files
I pushed a small commit to my dotfiles repository with a few random changes, including installing Janet from Homebrew and adding Janet support to my Doom Emacs configuration.
