MAJORRR Update

First app, context menu, and a LOT of stars 😭

Today I wanted to add an app. Not a standard one like notepad, music, file explorer… something that is different. So, naturally, I spent two hours coding my own star map using a ton of stars from the yale bright star catalogue (okay maybe not a ton but you get the idea). It takes the users location, calculates the chunk of sky above them (yes, you can do this) and shows the major stars visible to the naked eye on a turntable style minimap.

What the heck am I gonna do next

• for one, the text on the map rotates with everything so i gotta fix that
• THEN i’ll add a normal app like notepad lol
• a background needs to be added too, also I might add a bg switcher.

ohhhh yeah and i added stuff from the guide like the topbar and time, that’s not the star of the show for this log though lol.

astrOS day 1:

I want to finish this project really efficiently, so I have mapped out what features I want (you will see as they come). Today, I finished the boot screen and styling for it, and made the file structure.

Not much, only 40 mins, but since its a roughly 2hr 30m project, 30m a day means I finish in 5 days.

Next devlog should hopefully be finishing the desktop design, probably ~1hr.
