- A magic sqare artwork that generates scalable SVGs and expoerts scalabale PDFs (code mostly Fania, research mostly me)
- Archiving Emergency Artlab work done around 2001 with Mike Quantrill
- Using Static Site Generator (SSG) Nanoc (I like it a lot better than Jekyll) with one extremely complex and another simpler website. I’ve contributed to the Nanoc website in the past.
- Moving a lot of former fiction and poetry to Markdown (private repos for now)
- Cataloguing and listing my vintage Apple Mac hardware and software (mainly to sell or give to worthy collectors)
- Making commonly-used website features into compact ready-mades e.g.:
- CSS Lightbox
- bookmarkable CSS tabs…
- multiple popups from clickable triggers
- an automated slider (like the ones people put at the top of websites)
- etc. …
- Making CheatSheets in Markdown for my own quickreference (e,g, GIT, CSS Flexbox, ) I also sent them to students when I was teaching front-end web technologies
- Getting WebGL to show .obj files of models of Roman artefacts I made for Leicestershire Archaeology
- Playing with public APIs to get nformation, like this one that tracks UK Government Petitions
- Little JavaScript things I like to play with, like:
- calculating the digital root by turning names into numbers (like numerologists do!) — here’s the JavaScript
- dynamically changing a page using HTML forms
- playing with the HTML
data-attribute (very useful) - using data-queueing (also very useful for generating lists from user input)
- replacing switch-case with an object (supposed to be faster in some cases)
- making a Single-Page website from Markdown
- making a list of days that starts with today
- putting a zero before single date numbers
- etc. …
- Writing up my late father’s memoirs
- Reinterpreting the principles of the Unix Philosophy for Real Life
- Pondering a rewrite of the tutorial website used for my Web Coding First Steps book on LeanPub
- A very minimal decision-maker, because I needed one myself. Caveat: it’s bare-bones and has some non-critical bugs, and I am not repsonsible for anything you do after using it ;-)
- Maintaining the uptime of an artwork (with Fania) Personal Space that tracks solar weather and matches text from hundreds of diary entries to its intensity (from a project with Alice Charlotte-Bell)
- A place to put various presentations, like this one for EVA (Electronic Visualisation & the Arts)
- That’s enough for now—there are many other things for which I use GitHub
I used to use Wakatime to track my use of various languages (and took screen shots of all my Wakatime pie charts) but it didn’t really help me in any way and bugged out sometimes.
