Code Project – Python – Flask Top Ten Movies Site

So, I mentioned dumping the Flask Blog a while back, but then I decided that since I had managed to get it all working, it would be somewhat trivial to get it working on a subdomain, instead of a main domain, which had been my original plan to start with.  I was never too excited about dropping this project because I have a few ideas for little projects that I wanted to build that would actually work pretty well in Python and Flask, since it essentially adds a direct path to running a back end style script and a front…

Retroid Pocket 3

So, I've been pretty heavy on the programming push lately, but it's not all I've been up to. So, back around the start of the pandemic, I started work making a PiGrrl handheld emulator device. PiGrrl is basically a Game Boy Clone that runs with a Raspberry Pi at it's core. I ordered a bunch of parts and a case, I already had a Pi (I have several), and then the Pandemic caused my parts to take forever to arrive. Plus I probably spent more on it than I really should have. Then I got a little bored and it…

Code Project – JavaScript – Drum Kit

The second actual project from the class I've been doing is a simple clickable drum kit. Part of the purpose was to work with signs and to work with clickable elements. Like the dice roller game, the basic HTML and images were provided, though there was some freedom in arranging the icons and sounds. It feel a bit flaky, when it comes to overlapping sounds, but that also feels like a bit of a limitation with the code itself, or at least, the simplicity of what is being done here. I'm sure it's "fixable" with some more advanced work. But…

Code Project – JavaScript – Dice Roller Game

I mentioned in my Python Class posts that I really enjoyed the instructor and I planned to eventually move to doing her Web Dev Course. Well, I've started working on that one. It's not a "100 Days of Projects" so I've not been quite blitzing through it like I did the Python Course, and it's a lot of material I am already way more familiar with. Hell, I skipped over the first third of the course because it was the same HTML/CSS content included int he Python Course. My main goal here, is to get much more familiar with JavaScript.…

Code Project – Python – Fresh RSS to WordPress Digest

I actually briefly mentioned this project when I write about moving from TinyTinyRSS to FreshRSS. This has become a bit of an evolving and ongoing project however, so I've decided to catalogue it in it's own page. This little script worked out much better than I expected, and I've modified it a bit over time, and have ideas to modify it going forward even more. Starting off, the code can be found here in this Github GIST. I've left a bit of commented out code that i might use later for troubleshooting or adding additional features. The general gist of…
