I spent 40 minutes to get a “hello world” console output.
I created a Chrome Extension that literally only outputs Hello World and installed it on Chrome. Not much progress in my work to create an extension that can change any background, but at least I can get the extension to run something.
how did this take me 40 minutes bro.
(look at the console output, you can find hello world there)
Devlog 3:
IT MOVES
I still don’t understand most of the code writing, but I think I’m beginning to catch on to some JavaScript ideas and stuff. I did search up some topics but still.
I just followed part 3 of the tutorial and added the ability to move the window around, as well as to hide and show it. It’s pretty crazy to me how far I’ve come in such a short amount of time, as like one week ago I could’ve never imagined creating something even remotely close to this, even while following a tutorial.
I also finally moved all the CSS and JavaScript to separate files. Usually I would’ve created the separate files first, but I guess I just didn’t bother this time.
Devlog 2:
Still following the tutorial, I added a background image (literally a screenshot of my MacOS desktop, slightly cropped), centred my main content, and added a nav bar at the top of the screen that displays the current time using JavaScript.
Lowkey, I don’t understand a lot of the code and basically copied and pasted it. I’m going to go through the code and try to understand it sometime before I make my next devlog. I don’t want to just plagiarize the tutorial (because that’s unethical) but I frankly only understand around ~20-40% of the code that I’m writing.
I also updated my README to account for recent updates.
CubeOS Devlog 1:
I created the initial webpage and added some text, links, and an image to it, following part 1 of the tutorial on WebOS 1.
Much of the stuff in the tutorial I already knew, but I also discovered some new things, like using the element to cross out some text, and abbreviation of hexedecimal code when the characters are the same twice in a row.
I’m probably going to make this website a lot more personal because right now I don’t think it has much soul.
