Devlog 3 - KaziOS
Problem 1:
-
You’re probably seeing all this time I spent and wondering what greatness have I cooked up, but unfortunately most of this time was spent debugging the smallest and most annoying bugs ever…
-
First, when I transferred my js logic to a separate file, I updated the
<script>tag and put it in the head of my file. (This was the mistake..) -
After I added some updates to the style of my OS, and tested everything, I realized that my window could no longer move.
-
I spent a long time reviewing the JS logic, redoing it over and over, and comparing my code to other peoples.
-
After the longest time ever, I finally realized that the script tag should either be at the bottom, or include an additional attribute.
Problem 2:
-
I wanted to make the header of the welcome screen separate from the actual content of the welcome screen, but as you know, I am very knew to this.
-
It took a very long time and a lot of configuring/adjusting to finally get to this point, and I’m quite happy with it.
Updates:
-
Everything is successfully debugged (windows can move again)
-
CSS and JS separated from the HTML file. (Some styles are kept inline, and class styles are in the separate file).
-
Windows have a new look, with their own headers and close button.
-
Windows can now be opened by pressing “KaziOS” on the top bar and closed by pressing the red button on the header.
What’s next?
-
I feel a lot more confident with HTML, CSS, and JS, so I don’t think I will spend nearly as much time debugging in the future.
-
I will also be adding APP icons, and building my first few apps. The first app will be a simple notes app.
-
I also hope to make small games, possibly hangman with prompts generated automatically to be guessed by the user.
