Layout Update

1 December, 2020

After many layouts I could never get that original feeling back, so the site has been put back to the layout it had in 2013.

The Ezine has been put in the main menu.
It's been some years since a new issue has been released but there are plans to put new content on it next year.

The guest book is intended to be some sort of a link-out page where visitors can also leave their website links.

Remaining tasks for this site:

• Guestbook
• Code snippet styling

2020 has been one of the less productive years in terms of output of development projects. The time seemingly has melted away without much thought behind it, which is concerning. Perhaps this is how things become as we age. Or perhaps I have become too complacent.

One thing I had been stubborn about this year is game development - much time was spent attempting to put together some kind of game, and while the programming style was different from application development and I learned much from it, the other aspects like asset creation was very time consuming. 

Next year the focus will be put back towards web application development.

Toolip - Web Development Tools

19 September, 2020

Brought back a site I had up before which had a collection of web development tools

Renamed it from not some cats to toolip, and it is now under Tomual

It was made as an alternative to a site that used to be up in the early 2010s, called Nerdi.net

Toolip's tools have been hand-picked by me

Layout Update: 2002 Webpage

1 September, 2020

Changed the layout of this site.

I had previously spent a while making sure the site was mobile-friendly and modern-looking.

But in the end, it is my personal site, so I changed it to something I like personally.

I miss the classic HTML table layouts, so that is what I went with this time.

The side bars are intended to update often according to my activity.

It's definitely not mobile friendly, but for this product I shall say it needn't be mobile friendly.

Hope everyone is doing what makes them happy.

Discord.js Examples

8 July, 2020

Recently made a bot for Discord, and found that the web lacked examples for the current version of Discord.js

v12 has the objects structured differently and has renamed and moved a lot of the functions that previous versions had

So I made a bot that shows a lot of commonly used features - Detecting new users, commands with parameters, commands with mentions, assigning roles, etc.
