PCB for macropad
Case Finished! I have created a quite simple base to hold the macropad in, with a hole cut out for the usb port. I also created a PCB mockup based on the dimensions from KiCad. The lid was the hardest part, as i had to find all of the measurements. But it’s done now. Next, I’ll be working on the firmware.

It keeps a searchable, persistent history of everything you’ve copied — no account, no backend, everything stored locally in your own browser. The trickiest part was the core constraint: browsers won’t let a webpage listen to your clipboard in the background for security reasons. Instead of trying to fake that, I designed around it — a persistent input box at the top logs anything you paste into it, so “paste here” becomes the natural workflow rather than a limitation you have to work against. Three things I focused on making genuinely useful rather than just checkboxes: Instant fuzzy search across your whole history, filterable by content type (try typing “url”) One-click actions on every entry — copy back, pin, delete, open links directly, live color swatch preview for hex codes Smart auto-cleanup that expires old unpinned entries automatically, but with an undo toast so nothing’s ever really gone I’m most proud of the auto-cleanup + undo system — it’s the kind of small detail that’s easy to skip but makes the whole thing feel trustworthy instead of like something that’ll randomly eat your clipboard history. To test it: open the link, paste a few different things (a URL, some code, a hex color like #3b82f6, plain text) into the box at the top, and try searching, pinning, and letting something auto-expire to see the undo toast.

Shipped ClipStack — a clipboard history manager that fixes something everyone deals with: you copy something new and the old thing you copied is just gone. ClipStack keeps a running, searchable history of everything you paste in, entirely in your browser, no account, no backend.

Built ClipStack, a clipboard history manager that fixes something everyone deals with: you copy something new and the old thing is just gone. It keeps a searchable, persistent history of everything you’ve copied — no account, no backend, everything stored locally in your own browser. The trickiest part was the core constraint: browsers won’t let a webpage listen to your clipboard in the background for security reasons. Instead of trying to fake that, I designed around it — a persistent input box at the top logs anything you paste into it, so “paste here” becomes the natural workflow rather than a limitation you have to work against. Three things I focused on making genuinely useful rather than just checkboxes: Instant fuzzy search across your whole history, filterable by content type (try typing “url”) One-click actions on every entry — copy back, pin, delete, open links directly, live color swatch preview for hex codes Smart auto-cleanup that expires old unpinned entries automatically, but with an undo toast so nothing’s ever really gone I’m most proud of the auto-cleanup + undo system — it’s the kind of small detail that’s easy to skip but makes the whole thing feel trustworthy instead of like something that’ll randomly eat your clipboard history. To test it: open the link, paste a few different things (a URL, some code, a hex color like #3b82f6, plain text) into the box at the top, and try searching, pinning, and letting something auto-expire to see the undo toast. It’s fully client-side, so your data stays local to your browser only....

Devlog 1 - New project ! I started a new project, the main goal is to build a website that lets you choose an image or a video and transform it into ASCII art. I quickly built a proof of concept in Python. But the problem is that I have literally no knowledge of web programming. So, I’m going to spend next hours learning JavaScrypt and try to implement all my ideas.
Devlog 2 - the website is online ! Come test it, it’s a web-based tool that converts images into ASCII art directly in your browser. You can convert memes, family photos and even more. I’m very happy with the design, because I learned HTML, JS and CSS for this project (CSS is the worst and least fun) and I like the result. I would be very grateful if you report any bugs, because I test it only in Firefox and Microsoft Edge. The next step is to add a dark mode.
Devlog 3 - the final one ! I added a switch between a light and a dark mod, the design of the dark one is inspire by a terminal/ the movie Matrix. I also fix some small positioning bugs. And that’s all. I wil ship it now.
Devlog 4 - Think about raters ideas. I add a section in the README with every features request. I think the first two are excelent ideas, for the third one I have no idea how to make it and then the last one can be a good feature. If you have any ideas I’m taker and if you know how to optimize the algorithm let me know.
Devlog 5 - I had added all requested features ! Firstly, I added the invert button and the drag and drop zone, it was quite simple. After that, I added the progress notification and tried to optimize the algorithm. It was not simple, I changed it to read only one time the image and not read for brightness and then another time for the drawing… I, also for the black and white version, drew not each character one by one but only after a line. It speed up the calculation time a lot.
Devlog 6 - Updating the README and make main.py user-friendly. I updated the README.md to list new features for the upcoming ship, I also made the proof of concept in python more user-friendly with commands in the terminal.
Devlog 7 - Adding a text to ASCII converter ! It was such a really challenging idea to implement. My first idea was to call a google API, make the search and take the first image proposed by google. But the API I was looking for was disable for new people. So I try an API with AI generation but it wasn’t free. After that I looked for the reserp API a google scraper. But I needed to stock a private API key on a server and after one hour of trying, testing and fixing bugs. I said to myself that the best way was maybe the wikimedia API, it’s maybe less accurate than other API but at least it was free and no API_KEY needed. So I started devloped this idea and now it’s online. Don’t hesitate to test it and give me feedback or other features you want to see.
Devlog 8 - Finally the video option ! After hours of development I added the video to ASCII convertor. If you tested it you will see a notification informing you about estimated pourcentage and it can take time so don’t try big video (a big video it’s already a 30 secondes one) or decrease other options. How it’s work. Basically, it cut video into frame, uses the image to ASCII converter and then recreates a video.
Devlog 9 - Adding Gif to the video format. I thought it would be easier but I spent 2 hours of finding a good way to convert Gif to video format (such as MP4). I started with a librarie but I had an error, so I switched for FFmpeg and this has led to a lot of bugs. I coorected them and added a better preview of what your video would like. Now everything works well so try it by converting your best meme.
The last devlog (10) - I think I finally have finished this webiste. I added more way to export your ASCII art such as PNG, JPG, GIF and MP4. I also tried to optimize the design to be more user-friendly. Now I think I have finished this site (maybe if someone propose me a big feature I will come back to my decision). Time to ship the final version. Thanks for all your feedback it was very useful.

It has lots of different features to make it accessible and convenient to use. Features: Clock: It has both a world clock and a local clock feature; it will show how long the other country is ahead of or behind you. This also gives UTC offset info. Weather: It will use your location API to see where you are. It will tell you what the weather is like in your area; it also tells you the wind speed in your area. To Do List: This is where you add your tasks. Local storage will store your tasks, and it separates them into low, medium, and high categories; it will help you prioritise the urgency. Playlist: I orginally tried to build a custom YouTube playlist, but it got blocked by the party. Instead, I switched to a Spotify playlist, which is embedded into the site, is more reliable, and also comes with a polished player UI for free. Projects: This is a window showcasing my projects, each attached with a short description, tags and a link back to the repo.

Introduction: This is a personal website that is designed to feel like a live desktop rather than a static page. It has lots of different features to make it accessible and convenient to use. Features: Clock: It has both a world clock and a local clock feature; it will show how long the other country is ahead of or behind you. This also gives UTC offset info. Weather: It will use your location API to see where you are. It will tell you what the weather is like in your area; it also tells you the wind speed in your area. To Do List: This is where you add your tasks. Local storage will store your tasks, and it separates them into low, medium, and high categories; it will help you prioritise the urgency. Playlist: I orginally tried to build a custom YouTube playlist, but it got blocked by the party. Instead, I switched to a Spotify playlist, which is embedded into the site, is more reliable, and also comes with a polished player UI for free. Projects: This is a window showcasing my projects, each attached with a short description, tags and a link back to the repo.

I am proud of the fact that I was able to make something and it forced me to ask myself – what is my actual personality (for reasons this is a joke). All humor aside, while certain things were a challenge and I am glad I had tutorials and helpers along the way (who needs chat-gpt when you have a sister who is a more experienced coder), I am glad that my hours were put into somethings silly that people can mess around with. While there’s not many things you can do, there are many apps, some of which are interactive and some of which are just ways you can glimpse into who I am.

Realized that I haven’t done one of these yet. I’ve mostly completed up to part 2 of the tutorial. Tried my best to deviate from the tutorial but I’ll make it even more personal once I’ve finished the basics
finished part 3 of the tutorial. currently struggling to move the styles to css (that’s what you get for choosing to use a million different fonts). Working behind the scenes on some other artwork to make it more personal
Got my first app running. Finally got to declunk my css code. Almost done with part 4 of the tutorial. Never really sure what to share here.
Kind of gave up on following the tutorial by now. Added two more apps: Melbot, which is a fake AI that responds with a bunch of pre-written sarcastic replies no matter what. And “Thinks”, which is essentially where I can put random questions/thoughts/deep sentences that come to mind (if I choose to).
I rediscovered (and edited for colors) a snake clone i made a while back and added it in as another app. I also implemented custom hidden messages that only show up with certain keywords
I added one final app (for now) and finally deployed it with github!
I haven’t done a devlog in a while, but I’ve started working on the webOS 2 mission. I’ve updated part of the topbar to go to the homepage of my overarching website (I also have a custom domain now). I’ve also mostly completed my first new app, Canvas, which is an open canvas where the user can draw whatever they like. It started with a simple download/clear button and brush tool, but now also has buttons to fill the background and erase.
Hi I’ve been busy with other things and can’t believe I forgot about this until the very last minute but I don’t know that I’ve met the requirements fully for webOS but at least I can share the last app i’ve made, a quotes site with random quotes. I think I did other things in those total four hours but I’m afraid it’s been so long that I don’t fully recall. I think I did a lot of debugging.
Less so debugging, more so me doing stuff in Snippets because certain formatting things were bothering me. I also added another snippet because that’s what it’s for. I believe I’m finally going to ship
Ships:
I made a webOS that essentially shows a lot about myself through the different apps (whether it be my own ideas or random creations). Initially it was challenging to figure out what i wanted to do without being too similar to the tutorial. Also I didn’t really know what I was doing. Over time I found my groove and made melOS the mildly personal thing that it is.
I made a WebOS design, with no real theme other than being based on my random quirks and a lot of blue and green (that rhymes). I am proud of the fact that I was able to make something and it forced me to ask myself – what is my actual personality (for reasons this is a joke). All humor aside, while certain things were a challenge and I am glad I had tutorials and helpers along the way (who needs chat-gpt when you have a sister who is a more experienced coder), I am glad that my hours were put into somethings silly that people can mess around with. While there’s not many things you can do, there are many apps, some of which are interactive and some of which are just ways you can glimpse into who I am. I hope that whoever can come across this can enjoy. Technically I only added two new full features (quotes and canvas) because I ran out of ideas and time and was too much of an overachiever in WebOS 1, but I did my best to add to other sections such as Melbot (it’s been a while so don’t quote me on this one), Thinks and Snippet (although you can tell I abandoned this project at many points). Anywho, I hope you enjoy!...

Made the basic thing which was listed on guide.With apps like terminal and text editor will add the func to open them later.
made the terminal and code editor.Just the editor doesn’t support highlights.
added menu and a pixel editor. Where you can make a pixel art and export.
Added a snake game with score board and restart option
Added a user menu which includes two user : root guest i haven’t added the password for testing of course.
Made this music player app using API from my site i.e. teenapi so i made a music player around it also it is not in picture but i made a dock for app.

I made it in such a way that it only has work content and no distractions and annoying stuff.
made some changes on the website to make it look less AI generated and added a vector convertor so you can convert your image into a vector one and let it adapt to the screen instead of stretching awkwardly and added a landing page that allows the user to sort between image and text so it is easy to use
I wrote the ui again to make it less AI generated

made the ui for the new message button i made a message button and added some smoooooooth transitions for it like the email button and made the ui stuff for it, next things left to do in this api: make a rest API for this that will be called and will store all the messages mail: use the gmail/agentmail/smth else api to email the msg to me terminal integration: something to source in my bashrc that alerts me when i open the terminal notif service: notifies me in my macbook when a message comes maybe a captcha?
made the rest API for this and a web UI for me to manage the messages this API will be called when someone sends a message. remaining: use js magic to integrate this into the website so message sending works the rest of the stuff, mail,terminal integration,and notifier

made the terminal integration! it notifies me on my terminal when i have messages and implements a lily cli command that i can use to manage the messages. it supports these commands lily messages [filter] : [filter] is optional, it can be one of read unread notified unnotified or something like .id==5 or .id>=2 . shows the messages matching the filter. lily mark <type> <value> <start> [end] : <type> is read or notified , <value> is a boolean, it changes the read or notified value of a message. when [end] isn’t given it defaults to <start> . lily read <start> [end] : aliases to lily mark read true <start> [end] lily readall : marks everything as read lily delete <start> [end] deletes messages based on IDs. commits since the last devlog ed99296 add lilyterm.sh terminal integration edcb0f8 timestamp! a696a4a forwarding stuff 99cecd5 increase hrrect blur radius
made the notifier now it will also notify me with a sound when any message comes! if my mac is locked/i am away then it will wait until it unlocks then notify me for my messages automatically, it will also show the priority. one limitation, it uses a flag on the server to store if it has already notified for a given message so it will not notify me twice, but because nothing is stored in the client (my macbook) it will cause problems if i make it notify on multiple devices. if i do that i have to either make the notified flag be an array for each client or i can make each client store its own flag but regardless it works now, all that’s left is email commits since the last devlog d16aca6 make the notifier script b4b7089 Make it only alert on interactive shells
completed the message feature by implementing email now its done! i used agentmail for this (“coolton” is what i named the agentmail inbox, i reused an inbox i used for an older project), it works now! now when someone sends a message, all of these happen: i recieve an email (immediately) i recieve a notification on my macbook with a sound(if its locked/sleeping then i recieve the notification when i come back and unlock), i recieve an alert on my terminal when i open it commits since the last devlog c536541 fix mobile responsiveness issue 16ecb20 make it email me when a message is sent
add a readme and fix it in india i added the README and then a friend from india told me that apparently the website doesnt work in india so i actually travelled all the way to the border and managed to connect to an indian cell tower and verified that it did not work then i fixed it, i proxied the messages API through nest and added pages.tanjim.org which doesnt go through VPS now its all good.
add a custom pink scrollbar and cursor!! they look so cuteeeee commits since last devlog ffea3e3 inline custom cursor SVGs 4549d01 add pink custom cursors!! 0bc7f83 add cute pink scrollbars :3 1d03792 Revert “comment notifier-macos.sh, sob its trash code” 3abd8da comment notifier-macos.sh, sob its trash code e9ab376 aa 756f09e seo 321727f WHO IS SPAMMING MY API
made the custom cursor logic better it used to sometimes show the text cursor when it was not supposed to and it did not show the hand cursor on the projects link buttons commits since last devlog 13c5a44 make custom cursors work better 29cd012 make readme use the jpg; jpg is faster than png b329790 new preview 2d56412 add backend shebang a985bc5 fix readme bb65dca fix custom cursor a bit 39561cb document licensing stuf
add dark mode! you can click this button in the corner for dark mode now! yayayay commits since last devlog 3044340 uhh weird css specificity fix ee4291e finish dark mode! 3a2ea3d add dark mode colors
add ratelimits this prevents spamming messages, its a server side limit of 6 messages per 2 minutes. and you also can’t send an empty message anymore (both client-side and server-side restriction). commits since last devlog 5a74570 make it reject empty messages 207b3a6 add ratelimiting
add captcha now bots can’t spam my messages commits since the last devlog 0c9c468 make it a little taller d6a262a fix transition colors da01c9a fix height of hrrect d2685a4 document captcha and make api key bypass ratelimit 9ebb297 add captcha
minor fixes and comments make the code easier to read! and also fix a slight bug in the captcha where it didnt reset when i sent a message so i needed to reload to send 2 messages commits since the last devlog 631e93b comment backend.py 01a280d comment notifier-macos.sh 5016741 comment lilyterm.sh ec83a24 make captcha reset on msg send
Ships:
i made my website yay!
i made my website! it looks soo cute aaa,, in this ship i did the following: added captcha to messaging added ratelimiting to messaging put the cute custom cursors :3 commented the code a bit added dark mode...

But that did not return everything, and I finally fixed it I tried a bunch but the that worked for me was using some commands through power shell. That gets all the apps that windows knows about. The icons Now the program will show the user the icon of the app they want to open. there are three different kinds of app Id’s in windows and I have to assess their photos differently for each, which added alot of complexity and is the whole reason this devlog took so long. Better calculator The calculator has a few improvements the first being it now has the constants pi and e baked into it. It can also now do square roots and trigonometric functions.

Bugs The implementation for removing the previous answers did not always remove all of the answers and sometimes left the user with answers that shouldn’t be there.

The autocomplete feature did not like the list all expansions feature because the program will refuse to give answer past a certain amount of them to prevent 20 answers being given at once.

Title: Action Bar by @Joseph-T | Stardance
Devlog Title: Action Bar by @Joseph-T | Stardance
Devlogs:
Made a basic looking search bar that opens when you click a little icon in the corner of the screen, doesn’t do anything besides sit there yet. I am using electron and node JS for it.
Added glassy look and made a calculator app for the program. In the end I want an app that is completely transparent except for the results and search bar. Those should be tinted and blurred, but in electron the app I am using it is impossible to make a single element transparent through the apps behind it and blurred. I can do that for elements in my own app. Or the background for the entire app. So the search bar and results bar’s backgrounds are not blurred, which makes them hard to read over text.
I improved the looks slightly improved the functionality of the calculator. I tried for more than half this time to make the blur working unfortunately it does not appear to be possible maybe doing something with JS canvases. But if I have to use something like that the amount of compute time won’t be worth it. So I decided against doing it until there is an easy way to do that.
added conversions to the app and a global shortcut to open the app I decided on Alt+Z for the shortcut because I don’t have that mapped to anything right now and the two keys are physically close to each other. The conversion thing was interesting because there are a lot of different units for the same stuff, miles, inches, cm, km, etc. all measure length. I really did not want to make a table for every possible conversion, so I wrote a function that takes a table with enough conversions and uses that to fill out the blanks. For example if I know the conversion between ft and in and in and cm. I can solve for the conversion between ft and cm.
added a timer to the thing, you also can instead of relying on autodetect to figure out what action you want to take you can say @tool_name instead where tool_name is the tool you are calling
Added a search feature. The feature just looks up what is currently in the search bar. Unfortunately the search feature uses Wikipedia’s API, which does make it much faster, than a bot crawling through google. But is susceptible to misinformation. I don’t think this is a massive problem because I am only taking the first sentence of the article. But I may look into alternatives in the future.
Added settings.json, the ability to open apps, and continued to attempt a frosted glass look. Settings.json will now allow for more customization. The ability to open apps is kind of the whole point its to avoid windows weird search bar thing that’s slow and not great to use. And after doing more looking into the blur effect it looks like the only way to do it is to have some js take screenshots of whats behind the page and then save that png and load it under the transparent thing than use the blur filter but, it seems slow, complicated, and not great for cross platform, so I am still looking for other solutions
I switched to an extension based thing. So anyone can make their own extensions for the app. The picture is of a JSON that has the data for all the extensions at the moment. I tried making the frosted glass look by adding random noise but I was not able to make it work.
Added more settings, added an app opener and added a file explorer. The file explorer and app opener used to be separate but I made them the same to simplify the users experience because I think that is what the application will be used for the most. They both work pretty well the file explorer can only fetch files a limited range of files it can use files in downloads, desktop, documents, music, videos, etc, can’t look for system level files and whatnot though. Added way more settings so you can change what the default tool it should use is if it can’t find a good one to use. Updated the readme for proper credit, and a bunch of other small things. I also made it compatible with several screens.
Added a GitHub and Duckduckgo extension so search does not have to be based on Wikipedia. The GitHub extension is made to quickly search for repos and users, however the API used has somewhat strict rate limits, but for occasional searches it should work fine. The DuckDuckGo or the dgg extention is just a search feature
Changes Made Added autocomplete for which action should be completed and added a music player. All extensions are now properly formatted, and no exceptions are given out. Autocomplete I found it a little difficult to quickly remember and spell out the extensions names but now I only have to type the first few letters and the app will give options for what the extension could be. Music Player Just opens the requested song in YouTube music.
Changes Made: Added an image viewer into the file explorer, added a copy button and improved file explorer functionality File explorer The file explorer now will show a preview image if it the target file is an image. The file explorer can also now take in a folder in which the target file is in and uses a search that allows for skipping folder in case the user forgets a folder inbetween. Copy Btn It just copies the result text into the users clipboard
Changes Made: I added a color picker and allowed for several tools to output at once. Color Picker Can use an eyedropper of the screen behind the interface or select from the color wheel. You can also just write out hex codes or RGB Multiple answers The main process can now handle and may call several extensions at once. The output order is determined by the order the main process calls the extensions, with an exception for asynchronous functions which get resolved upon completion. Still fixing small errors here and there in the system and may make a more intelligent main process
Changes Made: Improved several answers a lot. Added selector for which answer the user wants to interact with. And added a simple settings screen. Settings screen: The settings screen is temporary, but allows users to quickly change and save app settings. Selector: When multiple answers are present one of the answers will be highlighted the user can change which one is highlighted simply using the arrow keys. And when pressing Enter or Tab. They will call that extension. Better multiple answers: The new implementations allows for extensions to better manipulate their specific answer. And gives users a better amount of control through settings over the apps functionality.
Changes Made I did a lot and forgot to make Dev logs. I allow for the user to download extensions made by anyone to add to the website. And added a feature called pipelines. Downloading Extensions Anyone can make an extension and post it on Github, following the correct format if their extension is not listed you can put the username/extension_name in the text box above. When you restart the app the extension should be downloaded. Pipelines Pipelines let users without any code pipe extensions together so If I have a google translate and a search extension I can pipe them together. so that the result of the search is then translated.
Changes Made I finalized details for easy install and using it for the first time. Simple things like improving the functionality with the tray (the bottom right icons). How to use Whenever you want to open it you can either press Alt + Z or open the tray and press the icon see the image below for an example.
Changes made I made a far better readme.md file, and I added documentation for making your own extensions and pipelines Documentation I added very specific documentation for making your own extensions and pipelines. I don’t recommend making your own pipeline, because that is still in early development, but if you don’t have a stardance project yet I would absolutely recommend trying to make your own extension. It is difficult the first time but pretty easy afterwards.
Changes Made I added a list extensions feature, added extension specific settings, and removed a few nasty bugs. List all extensions feature All it does is when you press ? it will list all the extensions and you can just select the one you want from there. Extension Specific settings The settings page used to just have settings for the app now under the extensions tab will have extension specific settings that the dev of the extension can use. Bugs The implementation for removing the previous answers did not always remove all of the answers and sometimes left the user with answers that shouldn’t be there. I did a small rewrite which fixed the issue. The autocomplete feature did not like the list all expansions feature because the program will refuse to give answer past a certain amount of them to prevent 20 answers being given at once. But because the list all feature could expand to that point, the autocomplete feature thought there wasn’t enough room for it. But now I delete the previous answers before creating new ones for autocomplete.
Changes Made Improved fonts and spacing, improved opening apps, shows the icon of the app. I also improved the calculator Improved fonts I was just using the default fonts earlier because I am not very creative, but I decided to change it to Inter and Consolas. Improved app opening Earlier to determine the apps the user has installed as a temporary solution I just scrapped their desktop. But that did not return everything, and I finally fixed it I tried a bunch but the that worked for me was using some commands through power shell. That gets all the apps that windows knows about. The icons Now the program will show the user the icon of the app they want to open. there are three different kinds of app Id’s in windows and I have to assess their photos differently for each, which added alot of complexity and is the whole reason this devlog took so long. Better calculator The calculator has a few improvements the first being it now has the constants pi and e baked into it. It can also now do square roots and trigonometric functions. The trigonometric functions are interesting because they can be done with radians or degrees if the user types sin(90deg) . It will use 90 degrees instead of the default being radians.
Changes Made I added aliases and Improved the search. Aliases Aliases are a user configurable feature that allows the user to type /<Shorthand> which will immediately be turned into some text. For example instead of writing “Google chrome” I can type /google which will be converted to Google Chrome Users can configure as many of these as they want. Improved search On the first ship I got complaints that the search did not always return an answer when asked questions. For example Where is Canada would return an invalid answer whilst Canada returned a valid answer. I added a fallback to make these scenarios less common.
Changes Made I added an auto update code and added metadata to extensions Auto update code Before I added this code a user would have to delete the current code, and reinstall the application from GitHub. However this code will automatically detect and update the app on the users machine. Added metadata to extensions This allows for extensions to give data about them to the extension marketplace giving users a better idea of what they are downloading. Sorry for the lack of videos, it was really a backend change
Changes Made Added start on boot and safer extension marketplace. Start on boot The app will now set itself up so if in settings you enabled start on boot the app will automatically start itself when you boot up your computer. Safer extension marketplace The way extensions work is all the extensions listed have a GitHub repository linked so when the user downloads the extension they download it off the repository, but the developer can change the GitHub repo so after it is accepted as safe the developer can change that without any warning. So now we grab from a specific point on the git tree. However even still the Dev can change the history so we check that the commit hash matches the stored hash meaning the developer cannot change their extension after approval Sorry for the lack of videos again its really a backend change
Changes Made Added an Icon to the app, fixed a hundred different bugs, added a fallback for the duckduckgo extension, and added the extension descriptions to the help menu The icon I added an icon its very simple, and definitely subject to change, but now it does not have the default electron icon in the task bar. Bugs Fixed Changed the codebase to made up of several modules instead of a few giant files (Should have done it a long time ago) Fixed the time formatter for the timer Changed the commit hash of the GitHub extension Changed Priority order Improved Duck duck go extension The duckduckgo extension uses their quick search API, which returns a JSON, in which the answer sometimes is in JSON.abstract and sometimes JSON.relatedTopics[0].text Now the extension looks in both places and returns the most relevant answer. Extension descriptions I recently added descriptions of the extensions in their metadata so now on the help tab you can get small descriptions of each one. Sorry about how their have been no videos but it has all been fixing a lot of small bugs most of which don’t even make it into the dev-log.
Changes Made: I added a linux version, it should work on most distros. I also cleaned up the codebase. The linux version It may not work on all distros I only tested Fedora KDE, but from that test it looks like it functions almost fully however I still need to get the code for global shortcuts updated so that also works on linux. The file should download on most distro’s its an AppImage (the executable), not a .deb file I had one but switched to purely AppImage, soon afterwards, it should not affect the user. Cleaned up codebase All functions and classes now have docstrings, this way I can tell what I wrote the function to do later. I also removed some redundant checks.
Changes Made The app now allows for the user to select what extension they want to call using the mouse, it also has a better GitHub action yml, and finally npm tests Mouse selection Before the app was entirely keyboard driven their was nothing for the mouse to even interact with. I prefer it like this but their is now the option to select extensions with the mouse instead. GitHub actions yml The way I publish the app executable is with GitHub actions I will call an action that compiles the app and publishes the compiled app. But now it will also automatically update the version number so I don’t have to Tests I forgot to make tests for the longest time for this app and I finally realized it so I added them
Changes Made I worked on fixing some bugs for linux, so it should now have support for Wayland. Wayland bug fixes Wayland is an API for accessing the user layer of a linux machine. Quite a few distro’s use Wayland for this however my code was not the most compatible with this so I needed to write a bunch of code so some components work with it. The biggest bug was that the global shortcuts were not registering. Sorry about the lack of video
Changes Made Added a confirmation modal for the extension marketplace, hid the users home path, and Fixed a bunch of bugs. Confirmation Modal I added a modal that warns users against downloading extensions that could be harmful. Hiding the users home directory In the scenario that the user is recording a video or something where they use this app their user name on their computer could have been revealed, which is not good to say the least. Now that is no longer an issue, because we obfuscate the home directory, replacing it with a tilde Bugs The Cancel button on the modal wouldn’t close it. Stuck in the download state when downloading an extension Extension marketplace still showed previously downloaded extensions
Ships:
What is it? Action bar an application that more easily allows for quick actions and allows for users to open apps very easily. Challenges: One of the hardest challenges was allowing the user to make their own extensions and to allow for them to share it with others in the end I managed to make an extension “marketplace” (a bit empty but it works). How To Use: In order to open the application you can press Alt + Z a shortcut that can be configured. Or press the Icon in the bottom right corner. More information in the read me file. Features: This application lets you: quickly open apps Run custom extensions Pipe extensions together.
Version 2. What changed in Version 2: Safer extension marketplace Far better DDG search and app opening functionality Improved calculator Aliases Fixed a lot of small bugs Added the icon of the app you are opening ====================================== What is it? Action bar an application that more easily allows for quick actions and allows for users to open apps very easily. Challenges: I have never coded anything that people other than me actually use, so there is more pressure to sort out the small bugs and improve the UX How To Use: In order to open the application you can press Alt + Z a shortcut that can be configured. Or press the Icon in the bottom right corner. More information in the read me file....

Either way, the feature works fully now. The rest that’s left before making a release is chasing some bugs that are left: e.g. crashes on Windows on startup and access violation errors when making a screenshot on fullscreen (also specifically on Windows). Below is the Joukowski function, as I briefly mentioned before in the prior devlog."}, {"post_id": 18224, "ts": "2026-06-29T09:17:52Z", "hours": 16.4414, "text": "After much, much longer than I’d like to admit, I finally got “sliced” coloring to work! Naturally we need a better name, but that can wait. A bit on implementation So, for Kolori, we use OpenGL to render scenes on the GPU. Specifically, we target at minimum desktop OpenGL 3.3, and the GLSL shaders are written for GL ES 3.0 (we plan to target WebGL in the future, maybe moving to WebGPU later. Maybe.). We implement the “slices” coloring mode as follows: The user inputs a list of colors We store these colors as a variable-length array (VLA) which can grow dynamically but, instead of giving these values to the GPU as an array, we instead upload the color data onto the GPU as a one-dimensional texture , since GLSL doesnt support VLAs (and I didn’t want to limit the amount of colors one can add). Though, I did still do that inadvertently. Slice colors are managed by color edit widgets. Each widget’s ID (which must be unique) is generated using the index of the slice color it controls, casted to a byte. Thus, the number of colors cannot exceed 256. Something I hope to fix in the future. Also, an interesting note: GLSL for GLES 3.0 doesn’t support the sampler1D type (which literally represents a 1D texture), so one would have to use the type that represents a 2D texture, but set the height of the texture to 1, to emulate the same behavior and structure. This means that there are now two textures we handle in the shaders: the image texture that holds a user-uploaded image for the “Use an Image” coloring mode, and the slices texture that holds the selected colors for the “(Pizza) Slices” coloring mode. OK, but why’d you take so long? The major obstacle that was ran into was texture data mix-up: the data for the image texture would always overwrite the data for the slices texture, and it would even seem that the two textures were pointing to the same data, even though I assigned separate texture units to each one, and made sure to set the active texture each time before binding textures. OK, can I see it? See the demo below :) They don’t really start to look like “pizza slices” until you have 5+ slices. There are some really interesting graphs you can create using this, such as the graph of the Joukowski function , defined as: f(z)=(z+1/z)/2 (unfortunately not pictured below)."}, {"post_id": 16041, "ts": "2026-06-26T02:00:22Z", "hours": 22.7831, "text": "Progress on 0.4.0 Mainly, two new features/fixes: AppImage builds for Linux (we may add .deb files in releases in the future aswell) Image aspect ratio persistence AppImage builds In past releases, only an executable was published for Linux platforms. This is not a proper solution for distribution–different Linux systems may differ in ABI, available shared libraries, and packages. For instance, on WSL in my Windows machine, SDL3 is not available in the default repository, leaving me unable to build or even run the application. AppImage builds bundle the executable and everything needed for running the application into one file–perfect for distributing. “One app = one file”, or whatever those nerds say. To run on a Linux system, users will only need to do the following: Give the .AppImage file executable permissions Run the app! Its that easy. Image aspect ratio persistence Before, when you put in an image, it would be squished down into a square, distorting the image along its longest dimension. For images with a 1:1 aspect ratio, this is fine. For other images? Not so fine. We now apply proper scaling in the vertex shader pass to textures so that image aspect ratio is preserved in the canvas. Future changes Expect a new coloring mode: “Slices” . This will split the canvas into a number of “slices”–similar to how the four quadrants of the cartesian plane split it up into four slices itself"}, {"post_id": 11476, "ts": "2026-06-18T19:13:22Z", "hours": 5.6697, "text": "I’ve finally added image coloring to Kolori! Kolori can now take an image as input, by either selecting a image file using a native file dialog or dragging and dropping a image onto the window! The image below was created using the feature–using one of the gallery images as the input image. The hard part about this was, not actually loading the image file, reading the pixel data, uploading that into the GPU, and rendering it, but instead managing the file dialog by which a user can upload an image into the application. We use SDL3 for windowing and make use of the SDL_ShowOpenFileDialog function to, well, show an open file dialog. I initially put all of the image loading and OpenGL calls into the dialog callback, but something strange happened then. All of my OpenGL calls were triggering an GL_INVALID_OPERATION error–and specifically on Windows–but why? All of my OpenGL calls were fine, no invalid arguments passed in (or in the wrong order), so everything should’ve been fine. The answer lies in the SDL_ShowOpenFileDialog and how OpenGL works with multiple threads. SDL_ShowOpenFileDialog is an asynchronous function–it will return immediately, and the result of the dialog will be passed on to the callback. However, the callback function may be called on a different thread depending on the operating system, which explains the difference in effect on Windows, and the GL_INVALID_OPERATION errors were caused by the absence of an active OpenGL context on the new thread. SDL3 does not provide an API for setting the current thread’s OpenGL context, so I had to cope. I moved most of the business logic out of the callback function, only keeping the image loading logic, and instead performed the texture uploading into the UI rendering logic, where we check if there is any new image data that happened to be uploaded, upload the data onto the GPU as a texture and show it on screen."}, {"post_id": 11058, "ts": "2026-06-18T02:57:25Z", "hours": 13.5519, "text": "Bumped version from 0.1.0 to 0.2.0!

Lets try again then, with a piece that only demands a bit of your time. Kolori offers users three (at the moment) coloring modes: HSL, HSLuv, and custom palette generation. How do these work? Custom palette generation Unlike HSL and HSLuv, using a custom palette to color the complex plane is much more simple. Kolori lets the user input four arbitrary RGB colors. We then use Inigo Quilez’s cosine-based formula for procedural palette generation to determine the color of a pixel. An article of his that describes it is here: https://iquilezles.org/articles/palettes/ . The shader code that does it all: // From https://iquilezles.org/articles/palettes/ vec4 palette ( float t , vec3 a , vec3 b , vec3 c , vec3 d ) { return vec4 ( a + b * cos ( TAU * ( c * t + d )), 1 ); } Our a , b , c , and d are the colors the user has selected, and t is an input variable to vary. However, one would notice that t is a scalar, while we work in the complex numbers. How would we map the plane onto the real line in order to get a valid t to input into palette ? The answer we chose is simple: we take the projection onto the real axis–i.e. just taking the real part of the complex number This is an answer that a user would expect and is pointed out in the user guide. Furthermore, by not choosing ahead of time for the user, we allow the user to exert more control over what they wish to generate."}, {"post_id": 9714, "ts": "2026-06-16T04:10:17Z", "hours": 12.3725, "text": "Was preparing for first our ship, but then discovered that my application was leaking memory–badly. Memory usage would climb by a gigabyte in <2 minutes. Worse than any browser you’ve ever seen. To start, I use Odin, which has a tracking allocator that lets you see where you didn’t free up memory, or perhaps made bad frees. On program exit, it prints out how many bytes you leaked, and where you made the allocations. I had been using this allocator, and it had not reported anything . Furthermore, upon, admittedly, a very cursory look into my code, I couldn’t find anything that would’ve caused any leaks either–all allocations were eventually freed: whether that be manually or via Odin’s temporary allocator (a really nice feature of the language). LSan hadn’t pointed out anything, and Valgrind didn’t report anything scary, only ~200KiB of memory usage. I had even patched myself a custom allocator, which would print to stdout whenever an allocation was made with it, and I saw nothing concerning at all . Only small allocations were made which were, again, eventually freed. My application uses SDL3 for windowing and ImGui for GUI, so perhaps one of those has a memory leak in it? I’m not sure. For such a large library, I doubt that’s the case. Though, when running valgrind with --leak-check=full --show-leak-kinds=all I did keep seeing SDL pop up, but it didn’t report any outright leaks. Upon researching potential external sources for this memory leak, I found https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/15192 , which describes my issue exactly. It seems that there is no memory leak in SDL, ImGui, or whatever I’m doing, but instead a driver issue, which is interesting. The example that was given to reproduce the leak is quite minimal, so I wonder how that got past their testing. Furthermore, if this is indeed a driver-level issue, why is it that no other applications running on this device leak memory this egregiously?

As I was describing the bug, I immediately had an idea about how to fix it, and lo and behold, it worked. The original post was going to be as follows: Fixed a bug where trailing input after the parser successfully completes is not disallowed. This most commonly occurs, as I’ve found, after the use of a comma character. The parser simply does not see it, and instead only parses the expression it sees before it. Internally, a comma character is used to delimit function arguments, so this kind of behavior is not totally useless. However, for situations like picrel, it just seems strange. doesn’t it? This usually would be an easy bug to fix. We currently use a recursive descent parser (considering moving to a pratt parser) for parsing mathematical expression. All that honestly would’ve needed to be done was adding a check at the procedure that parses the top level grammar rule: “OK, are we at the end of our input? We should be. If not, return an error.” (Here, I realized that if we literally call this procedure while parsing function calls, it really isn’t too wise to immediately ask “are we done yet?” if we very much aren’t done yet. I then added the check into a procedure that isn’t called by the parser and we should definitely be done by the time that check is ran.)"}, {"post_id": 7892, "ts": "2026-06-13T05:13:05Z", "hours": 13.1858, "text": "(excuse the amount of time, i’m doing general refactors + debugging as well as working on other features) Implemented adjusting the gamma correction amount.

Finally! SDL3 & the GPU shaders are working. FWIW – this is the graph of f(z)=z, the identity transformation. I will make a devlog on how these images are generated later.
The project has come a long way (see the 30 hours of work that went into this). We now support: arbitrary function input on-the-fly graphing and error checking a “t” time variable, allowing you to animate graphs being able to speed up, slow down, and pause animations screenshots (not imaged below) zoom in/out panning As well as being multiplatform for both Linux and Windows (you can go build and run this, right now ). What to expect: the ability to change coloring method (hsl, hsluv, palette generation) the ability to use an image for coloring WASM web builds coordinate inspector to see where exactly in the complex plane you are Check it out on github: https://github.com/neroist/kolori
(excuse the amount of time, i’m doing general refactors + debugging as well as working on other features) Implemented adjusting the gamma correction amount. Normally, with the gamma correction, areas close to zero would appear black, and areas that have large magnitudes would appear white. However, you might not always want this, and instead would prefer only pure hue . Set the gamma correction amount to zero to reduce the amount that colors’ lightness values are altered. An example is shown where we use this feature to produce a colorful, moving spiral. Note that when gamma correction is not zero, as demonstrated, the effect does not work as well.
Learned how cool rubberducking is. I was having a problem fixing a bug with the parser (as described below), and I went to write a devlog about it. As I was describing the bug, I immediately had an idea about how to fix it, and lo and behold, it worked. The original post was going to be as follows: Fixed a bug where trailing input after the parser successfully completes is not disallowed. This most commonly occurs, as I’ve found, after the use of a comma character. The parser simply does not see it, and instead only parses the expression it sees before it. Internally, a comma character is used to delimit function arguments, so this kind of behavior is not totally useless. However, for situations like picrel, it just seems strange. doesn’t it? This usually would be an easy bug to fix. We currently use a recursive descent parser (considering moving to a pratt parser) for parsing mathematical expression. All that honestly would’ve needed to be done was adding a check at the procedure that parses the top level grammar rule: “OK, are we at the end of our input? We should be. If not, return an error.” (Here, I realized that if we literally call this procedure while parsing function calls, it really isn’t too wise to immediately ask “are we done yet?” if we very much aren’t done yet. I then added the check into a procedure that isn’t called by the parser and we should definitely be done by the time that check is ran.)
Was preparing for first our ship, but then discovered that my application was leaking memory–badly. Memory usage would climb by a gigabyte in <2 minutes. Worse than any browser you’ve ever seen. To start, I use Odin, which has a tracking allocator that lets you see where you didn’t free up memory, or perhaps made bad frees. On program exit, it prints out how many bytes you leaked, and where you made the allocations. I had been using this allocator, and it had not reported anything . Furthermore, upon, admittedly, a very cursory look into my code, I couldn’t find anything that would’ve caused any leaks either–all allocations were eventually freed: whether that be manually or via Odin’s temporary allocator (a really nice feature of the language). LSan hadn’t pointed out anything, and Valgrind didn’t report anything scary, only ~200KiB of memory usage. I had even patched myself a custom allocator, which would print to stdout whenever an allocation was made with it, and I saw nothing concerning at all . Only small allocations were made which were, again, eventually freed. My application uses SDL3 for windowing and ImGui for GUI, so perhaps one of those has a memory leak in it? I’m not sure. For such a large library, I doubt that’s the case. Though, when running valgrind with --leak-check=full --show-leak-kinds=all I did keep seeing SDL pop up, but it didn’t report any outright leaks. Upon researching potential external sources for this memory leak, I found https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/15192 , which describes my issue exactly. It seems that there is no memory leak in SDL, ImGui, or whatever I’m doing, but instead a driver issue, which is interesting. The example that was given to reproduce the leak is quite minimal, so I wonder how that got past their testing. Furthermore, if this is indeed a driver-level issue, why is it that no other applications running on this device leak memory this egregiously? In any case, the leak is not my fault, and out of my hands.
Wrote a full-length devlog about a core feature of Kolori and its implementation, but it got deleted for being “too long”. Lets try again then, with a piece that only demands a bit of your time. Kolori offers users three (at the moment) coloring modes: HSL, HSLuv, and custom palette generation. How do these work? Custom palette generation Unlike HSL and HSLuv, using a custom palette to color the complex plane is much more simple. Kolori lets the user input four arbitrary RGB colors. We then use Inigo Quilez’s cosine-based formula for procedural palette generation to determine the color of a pixel. An article of his that describes it is here: https://iquilezles.org/articles/palettes/ . The shader code that does it all: // From https://iquilezles.org/articles/palettes/ vec4 palette ( float t , vec3 a , vec3 b , vec3 c , vec3 d ) { return vec4 ( a + b * cos ( TAU * ( c * t + d )), 1 ); } Our a , b , c , and d are the colors the user has selected, and t is an input variable to vary. However, one would notice that t is a scalar, while we work in the complex numbers. How would we map the plane onto the real line in order to get a valid t to input into palette ? The answer we chose is simple: we take the projection onto the real axis–i.e. just taking the real part of the complex number This is an answer that a user would expect and is pointed out in the user guide. Furthermore, by not choosing ahead of time for the user, we allow the user to exert more control over what they wish to generate.
Bumped version from 0.1.0 to 0.2.0! See it here: https://github.com/neroist/kolori/releases/tag/0.2.0 . Some interesting changes are that there is now a VSync toggle + a frame rate slider with support for unlimited frame rate (as much as your GPU can handle), build system improvements–so that Kolori is one make release away on all platforms that have make , and the UI is now DPI-aware and will scale based on the monitor’s DPI (we do not change scaling however if the monitor were to change–something to fix in a future release). We also changed our color input sliders to display RGB colors in their integral components from 0 to 255–what you would expect, rather than a decimal display. See it below!
I’ve finally added image coloring to Kolori! Kolori can now take an image as input, by either selecting a image file using a native file dialog or dragging and dropping a image onto the window! The image below was created using the feature–using one of the gallery images as the input image. The hard part about this was, not actually loading the image file, reading the pixel data, uploading that into the GPU, and rendering it, but instead managing the file dialog by which a user can upload an image into the application. We use SDL3 for windowing and make use of the SDL_ShowOpenFileDialog function to, well, show an open file dialog. I initially put all of the image loading and OpenGL calls into the dialog callback, but something strange happened then. All of my OpenGL calls were triggering an GL_INVALID_OPERATION error–and specifically on Windows–but why? All of my OpenGL calls were fine, no invalid arguments passed in (or in the wrong order), so everything should’ve been fine. The answer lies in the SDL_ShowOpenFileDialog and how OpenGL works with multiple threads. SDL_ShowOpenFileDialog is an asynchronous function–it will return immediately, and the result of the dialog will be passed on to the callback. However, the callback function may be called on a different thread depending on the operating system, which explains the difference in effect on Windows, and the GL_INVALID_OPERATION errors were caused by the absence of an active OpenGL context on the new thread. SDL3 does not provide an API for setting the current thread’s OpenGL context, so I had to cope. I moved most of the business logic out of the callback function, only keeping the image loading logic, and instead performed the texture uploading into the UI rendering logic, where we check if there is any new image data that happened to be uploaded, upload the data onto the GPU as a texture and show it on screen.
Progress on 0.4.0 Mainly, two new features/fixes: AppImage builds for Linux (we may add .deb files in releases in the future aswell) Image aspect ratio persistence AppImage builds In past releases, only an executable was published for Linux platforms. This is not a proper solution for distribution–different Linux systems may differ in ABI, available shared libraries, and packages. For instance, on WSL in my Windows machine, SDL3 is not available in the default repository, leaving me unable to build or even run the application. AppImage builds bundle the executable and everything needed for running the application into one file–perfect for distributing. “One app = one file”, or whatever those nerds say. To run on a Linux system, users will only need to do the following: Give the .AppImage file executable permissions Run the app! Its that easy. Image aspect ratio persistence Before, when you put in an image, it would be squished down into a square, distorting the image along its longest dimension. For images with a 1:1 aspect ratio, this is fine. For other images? Not so fine. We now apply proper scaling in the vertex shader pass to textures so that image aspect ratio is preserved in the canvas. Future changes Expect a new coloring mode: “Slices” . This will split the canvas into a number of “slices”–similar to how the four quadrants of the cartesian plane split it up into four slices itself
After much, much longer than I’d like to admit, I finally got “sliced” coloring to work! Naturally we need a better name, but that can wait. A bit on implementation So, for Kolori, we use OpenGL to render scenes on the GPU. Specifically, we target at minimum desktop OpenGL 3.3, and the GLSL shaders are written for GL ES 3.0 (we plan to target WebGL in the future, maybe moving to WebGPU later. Maybe.). We implement the “slices” coloring mode as follows: The user inputs a list of colors We store these colors as a variable-length array (VLA) which can grow dynamically but, instead of giving these values to the GPU as an array, we instead upload the color data onto the GPU as a one-dimensional texture , since GLSL doesnt support VLAs (and I didn’t want to limit the amount of colors one can add). Though, I did still do that inadvertently. Slice colors are managed by color edit widgets. Each widget’s ID (which must be unique) is generated using the index of the slice color it controls, casted to a byte. Thus, the number of colors cannot exceed 256. Something I hope to fix in the future. Also, an interesting note: GLSL for GLES 3.0 doesn’t support the sampler1D type (which literally represents a 1D texture), so one would have to use the type that represents a 2D texture, but set the height of the texture to 1, to emulate the same behavior and structure. This means that there are now two textures we handle in the shaders: the image texture that holds a user-uploaded image for the “Use an Image” coloring mode, and the slices texture that holds the selected colors for the “(Pizza) Slices” coloring mode. OK, but why’d you take so long? The major obstacle that was ran into was texture data mix-up: the data for the image texture would always overwrite the data for the slices texture, and it would even seem that the two textures were pointing to the same data, even though I assigned separate texture units to each one, and made sure to set the active texture each time before binding textures. OK, can I see it? See the demo below :) They don’t really start to look like “pizza slices” until you have 5+ slices. There are some really interesting graphs you can create using this, such as the graph of the Joukowski function , defined as: f(z)=(z+1/z)/2 (unfortunately not pictured below).
Managed to get everything working <3 The main issue was not assigning texture units to the sampler uniforms whenever the shaders were rebuilt 🤦. Either way, the feature works fully now. The rest that’s left before making a release is chasing some bugs that are left: e.g. crashes on Windows on startup and access violation errors when making a screenshot on fullscreen (also specifically on Windows). Below is the Joukowski function, as I briefly mentioned before in the prior devlog.
Ships:
Kolori is a desktop application that lets you create beautiful pieces of art from mathematical expressions. Kolori features a custom hand-written recursive descent parser to parse mathematical expressions–which it then uses to transpile your input down to low-level shader instructions to render images to the screen on the GPU. Kolori also supports rendering not only images, but animations using the “ t ” variable in the input expression, which grows linearly with time elapsed–the speed at which is adjustable. Kolori offers four coloring modes that can generate different images based on your input: HSL : Uses the HSL color space to generate pixel colors HSLuv : Uses the HSLuv color space, a perceptually uniform alternative to HSL, to generate pixel colors Custom Palette Generation : Input 4 colors of your choosing so Kolori can generate a custom color palette based on them, to determine pixel colors Use an Image : Select an image using your file manager, or just drag and drop one onto the window for Kolori to sample pixel colors from the input image to determine pixel colors. Making this project was a bit of an adventure, as I had never worked with libraries such as ImGui, SDL, and OpenGL before. The biggest challenge when creating the program was managing memory correctly–which makes me appreciate languages like Nim even more–and code organization....
