🤖 📹 I made 2 more videos about using Claude.ai & Scittle to generate ClojureScript + Reagent apps.

These will be the last as I don't want to shill for a proprietary AI service 😅 but I thought it was useful enough to share.

The first video contains examples (graphing calculator, timer, todo, image resizer) and looks at the ClojureScript code (including LLM fails!). The second has instructions for setting up Claude so you can do this too.

Enjoy!

@borkdude thanks for building all these amazing tools so we have something to talk about. 😄 @jmglov has inspired me to dig into Scittle some more.

@TodePond open practice. yes!

@ho omg thanks for this! 🙏

I hope the new album is going well!

Worklog: finished the day tinkering with this HTML, SVG, and CSS progress timer thing.

Worklog: finally solved a tricky UI problem today in Beat Maker. I want to give people a good experience editing on any device but the full grid doesn't always fit. 🤔
Solution:
1. Resize observer on the grid.
2. On resize, make all beats display for an instant and then measure how many are visible in the scroll area, then set their display back to what it was before.
3. Find the next lowest power of two beats that will fit, and divide the grid up into pages of that size.

Worklog: trying to come up with a better UI for the Beat Maker grid on mobile devices. Over the summer I realized the scrollbars hack I came up with is not going to work.

Worklog: upgrade all https://hostedgitea.com machines to the latest version.

🕹️ I shipped makesprite.com - it's a simple open source web app to generate and wrangle sprites using DALL-E. 🖼️

@lvk thanks for checking it out!

I'm constantly having to look up the syntax for looping in bash so I made this tiny website to make it quick and easy.
