I often write code
It often works out nicely
But often it breaks

TV broke which means today was spent salvaging parts!!

OKAY i have been able to put a little bit more time into charta this weekend and realized the way I was going about bulleted lists was clunky and made me unhappy!!

This work should also provide a good base for doing numbered lists and stuff. It also brought to light some weird bugs when it comes to handling bold / italics. It is surprising how much work it is to make a notes app

#gtk #rust #gnome

I love cleaning day I just found 6 unopened 10ft spools of wire. I do not remember ever ordering this
This PCB is so much smaller than I was picturing it in my head lol
I've been working on an icon for Charta. I did a first pass in #inkscape today! I used my current notebook as a reference.
I want the keyboard I'm working on to be battery powered but I do _not_ trust my ability to design a charging circuit so I'm building a small #prototype in #kicad of the circuit I'm working on. Power stuff makes me particularly nervous.

I've got a first pass of the key placement and wiring doneup in #kicad

now to decide on a microcontroller. I oringally was thinking of using an NRF52 but now I'm thinking about using a risc-v #esp32

I've started working on a keyboard in @kicad here is the switch matrix. (anyone see any glaring issues? lol). #KiCad

Hm I've heard getting themes to work nicely in #gtk can be a bit of a pain... and I suppose they were right. After a few hours of tinkering, Charta almost works with nice themes.

If anyone familiar with GTK development has seen something like this please point me in the right direction lol

Follow-up toot:
I have managed to get the auto-formatting for bulleted lists working nicely, but there is still some weirdness with triggering the beginning of a bulleted list. For now, I have made it so you can type a hyphen and then two spaces and it will start a list. I don't love it but it makes formatting the lists easier.
