Tested comparing Flat Shading, Smooth Shading, and Cel Toon-ish Shading.
The slope problem with character movement
Today, I faced the slope problem every game dev faces.
When working with a physics based movement, walking down a slope makes you bounce.
Walking up a slope would launch you in the air depending on the force you applied.
To negate this, you have to use a groundcheck + raycast and add force against the angle of the slope.

My first desktop app using Electronjs
I finished creating and testing my desktop app for MacOS and Windows “CmdForge”
A super simple command snippet management tool for offline or online use leveraging Google Sheets API.
My recent development projects has been around React Native, or React. I started off in the .NET eco system with c#, but now I am starting to get more grounded with TypeScript and React. Good or Bad? People say it’s better to have a deep understanding of one language than being the jack of all trades. But learning many languages and frameworks are simply too fun.
Let’s talk about code signing. The cots to code sign your windows application is too pricey for a hobby, or open source project. On the other hand, for MacOS, if you have an annual developer account you can code sign as many apps as you please.
For this reason, I decided not to code sign the Windows version. If peole really wanted to use it, they’ll just have to ignore the security warnings.

CmdForge desktop App wip
If you’re an IT person, you likely use many tools and operating systems, and you take notes of commands you might have to look up in the near future.
I’ve always had my command notes stored in Google Sheets for reference, but that felt inconvenient.
I decided to make a simple desktop application for Windows and Mac to store the commands you use. Enter the command for copy/pasting, a description, and assign a group like Cisco, Kubernetes, Linux, and so on.
So far, the data is stored locally via Better SQLite3, but the plan is to use Google Drive to store data.
I chose ElectronJS + React + Vite + TypeScript for my framework.
Work in progress, and the app will have a switch between an English and Japanese interface.
