Day #43 of the Jay-Tab: The final day.

Today, I celebrate me finishing the Jay-Tab!

I finished the entire readme, the updates to the CAD, and the BOM!

It is all done, and I uploaded it to GitHub.

Thank you to the people who have been seeing this daily! I see that you have been liking the posts!

Thank you for the people who have been commenting, liking, and I am excited to see where this project goes! :yay:

Day #42 of the Jay-Tab!

Today, I finished about 90% of the BOM, and I’m also planning to get the bottom weight CNC’d so it can actually support my project without looking bulky, since a lot of pre-made weights are bulky.

Tomorrow, I am going to finish the BOM, and the Jay-Tab’s design story will come to an end!

Here’s what the CNC model looks like!

See you tomorrow! :yay:

Day #40 of the Jay-Tab!

Today, I started the README! I finished around half of the project, but then GITHUB GLITCHED AND DELETED THE README!

I started the README again, and it is going pretty well so far! The image is what I have right now!

See you tomorrow! :duck-dance:

Day #39 of the Jay-Tab!
We are so close to the end; I SEE IT!

Today, I pushed all the files to GitHub and also realized I forgot a few things in the software and the CAD, which I fixed, except that I need to make a small hole in the CAD model. I will do that tomorrow.

After this, we are going to make the BOM, ReadMe, and then we are done! :tripletsparrot:

Here is a link to the GitHub repo: https://github.com/Jay-Tai/Jay-Tab

See you tomorrow!

Day #34 of the Jay-Tab!

Today was all about getting the backend code to work for the UI. I made all of the backend code for the govee work. In addition, I made part of the UI code, which I am going to try and finish tomorrow (As in today when I am posting this), and then day after, I am going to work on the bug fixes!

See you tomorrow!

Day #33 of the Jay-Tab!

Today was amazing! However, I found issues with Homey. I found that it would actually cost me money to use Homey for this project! Therefore, I have pivoted to the Govee API and redesigned the UI so that it is for one Govee light, but I can change the color through there as well!

Here is what the new UI looks like

Day #32 of the Jay-Tab!
MAJOR PROGRESS

Today, I got the actual home working! I said that I was going to use Home Assistant to make this project work, but i faced many issues with it. Therefore, I left home assistant, and locked into homey!

At first it was a pain, as I had to get Govee working and it kept asking for an API. I ended up applying to get an API with Govee, and ended up getting the API!

In addition, it was an absolute PAIN to get the switches added as I had no idea what smart switches were in my house. At the end, I got the smart switches working through 3 different apps and got it connected to homey!

At the end, everything is connected to homey and working, and the next step is integrating it into my code! :orpheus-cool:

See you tomorrow!

Day #31 of the Jay-Tab! (I forgot to post this yesterday :pf:

Day #30 of the Jay-Tab!
I wish I had more to say today, but I don’t 😞

I wanted to get a majority of the home control software done today, but I realized that the account that controls the lights in my home isn’t through a shared Google account, but instead a Google account that doesn’t belong to me, but to my parents. When I am working on this, both my parents are already fast asleep.

Therefore, tomorrow, I am going to get the API set up with them, and I will work on the code surrounding it tomorrow!

Days 28 and 29 of the Jay-Tab!
Apparently, I spent all my time yesterday without recording anything :cryin:

I have finished the calendar screen! However, I am leaving out the other screen that talks about the other details of an event as I want to save that for V2 of the Jay-Tab.

In addition, I finished the main idea of the home control screen! Take a look! :D

DAY 25 AND 26 OF THE JAY-TAB!!!

I forgot to post yesterday’s devlog :pf:

So far, I finished everything that surrounds the UI for one day, and all that needs to be done is the next day and previous day functions! I also finished the debugging!

See you tomorrow!

Take a look at the UI while you are here:

Day #24 of the Jay-Tab!

This is one of those slow but still productive days - I finished all the logic that is going to make the calendar screen work, and tomorrow, all I need to do is that I need to work on creating the UI surrounding the calendar with multiple windows, along with debugging!

After that, is going to be part 2 of the calendar, which is when you click on an event, it should show all information that is related to that event.

See you tomorrow!

Day #23 of the Jay-Tab!

Today was a bit of a slow day. I finished working on the case where there was less than 6 events in a day (Meaning all events can fit on one page), and tomorrow, I am going to work on events that are more than 6 events (That means all events need to fit on multiple pages).

I already started working on a bit of the screen where there are more than 6 events, but the bulk will be done tomorrow :D

Day #22 of the Jay-Tab!

Today, I started the UI of the calendar.

As the same that I do with every single screen that I make in the Jay-Tab, I always make a version of it in adobe illustrator.

The way I want this to work is that there should be a list of all events when you click the calendar, and when you click on an event, it will give you all of the information that is related to the event..

Here’s what the events display is supposed to look like! (Designed in Adobe Illustrator)

See you tomorrow! :yay:
