| 5 | +Wait what's up!? |
| 6 | +A _weekend_ devlog? |
| 7 | +That's a first! |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Let me explain. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +Week 10 started with an [XXL post on Day 22](#post-2023-03-06). |
| 12 | +I set three strict goals to achieve for the day. |
| 13 | +But I still get distracted by other ideas. |
| 14 | +Things to procrastinate with. |
| 15 | +So I needed a solution for that. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +I already started a markdown-formatted list of ideas and to-do's on that day. |
| 18 | +But I had no great way to keep those notes. |
| 19 | +So on [Day 23](#post-2023-03-07) I decided to stash them into this blogpost. |
| 20 | +That means the weekend blogpost has been written mostly during the rest of the week. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +I'm not sure yet if I'll keep the list of ideas below in my blogpost. |
| 23 | +Most likely I'll reorganize that in the weekend or thereabouts. |
| 24 | +Maybe GitHub issues will be a decent place for these things? |
| 25 | +Who knows. |
| 26 | +For now I need a dumping ground. |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +#### Parked ideas and to-do's |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +So here's a big list of ideas that came up recently: |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +- **Ideas for Pincrediball.com** |
| 33 | + - **Dynamic header levels in Markdown**. |
| 34 | + The blog posts _should_ have a `h1` level title. |
| 35 | + This way if I ever create individual blog post pages they'll neatly get a `h1`. |
| 36 | + And for `/devlog` where all posts sit on one page, they can be dynamically changed. |
| 37 | + (The markdown plugin allows for overriding the header rendering methods.) |
| 38 | + - **Improve headers setup**. |
| 39 | + Additionally, the headers need tweaking. |
| 40 | + First, the author + date line doesn't need to be a header. |
| 41 | + It can be just an emphasized paragraph. |
| 42 | + That way all subsequent headers can be bumped one level. |
| 43 | + Which makes more sense and is thus good for accessibility. |
| 44 | + Additionally, the `prose` styles will turn out nicer. |
| 45 | + - **Bookmark organization**. |
| 46 | + All my researched bookmarks are in one big dumping folder. |
| 47 | + At the least I should organize them so I can find stuff more easily. |
| 48 | + In addition it might be fun to move the interesting ones straight onto the website. |
| 49 | + - **Terminology infographic**. |
| 50 | + It was hard to find a good visual aid for all Pinball terms. |
| 51 | + Creating one myself would be fun and useful. |
| 52 | +- **YouTube uploads**. |
| 53 | + It might be fun to turn some of the prototype videos into some initial content for the YouTube channel? |
| 54 | + Might be better than a completely empty space, also to avoid Google from nullifying the channel. |
| 55 | + (The videos would need some kind of background music though, or else it's _too_ boring.) |
| 56 | +- **Chase SvelteHack organizers**. |
| 57 | + Emailed the organizers of [hack.sveltesociety.dev](https://hack.sveltesociety.dev/) a while ago. |
| 58 | + Asked if my projects would qualify, since some light work was done _before_ the official start date. |
| 59 | + Never got a reply, so might be nice to chase that? |
| 60 | + (Although if I go with Godot, the game might be less integrated with the website than what'd be nice for the hackathon.) |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +All those ideas needed to be parked in favor of the three main goals. |
