Oh boy, it's been a while since I wrote anything on this website,
over two years ago!
But I've been thinking of starting to write posts more often, try this
proggramming-blogging thing out that seems to have had some sort of resurgance.
I don't know if I have anything others will find interesting to read, but I've
got a few drafts lying around that I'm gonna try finishing up. We'll see how it
goes. Just don't expect me to post things too often - maybe once or twice a
month, at most.
And with that, I've moved the website to yet another static website generator,
this time I'm using [zola]. Why? It's written in rust. That's pretty much all I
got. It's actually very similar to [hugo], which I used previously, but I don't
know - zola kinda feels nicer to work with when it comes to templates/themes?
My latest free-time project I've been working on is yet another roguelike - this
time, I'm following a tutorial so that I won't get stuck for too long figuring
out architecture stuff. It's being written in rust and the tutorial I'm
following is [this one][roguelike-tutorial]. It's pretty great - it's using
[specs] which I've tried out multiple times but I never really got a good hang
of figuring out how to do stuff with an ECS, so learning more about that has
been nice. But I did the stupid mistake of not writing down some small errors
in the tutorial, so I'll probably go back and try to find them again and open a
few PR's for them. I'll try to write a post or two about the roguelike here as
well. But for now, [you can find the source code for it over here][roguelike-src].
In other news, I bought myself an apartment. I'm moving at the start of June, so
that's pretty exciting.
Also, in case someone actually got my rss feed in their reader - sorry, it broke
again when I switched to zola, and from what I've read it'll break again in
version 0.11 due to a change I agree with. You'll have to fix the feed link,
twice. Again, sorry about that.
