Noctalia Battery Graph

This project was originally made for Anvil, so please excuse the lack of devlogs.
The plugin uses upowerd to read the historic battery charge (in a period set by the user) and then displays it with a set granularity (also given by the user)

Devlog 4: The Night Sky Background

Finished the work on the background. The star sizes are randomly assigned based on a power law distribution to make them look believable. The colors and the opacity is calculated from the size, similar enough to real stars. The graphic resizes to the window size, and up-scales on hi-dpi displays.
Also added backgrounds to the text, to make it more readable. And I fixed the wrong github link (it was redirecting to some weird site)

Devlog 3: Started making the ⭐ background
My idea for this is to make the background a randomly generated sky. I plan on coloring the stars based on their size, and to make them slowly appear the longer that you stay on the page. Just like if you were looking at the night sky. Might also make them twinkle.

Devlog 2: It’s getting better
Did some more work on the site. Added a category for my pictures, in addition to improving the layout

Devlog 1: Design Is Hard
It is my first time making a real, public website, and thinking about stuff to put on it is hard. Although that was still better then the pain of dealing with cloudflare and github pages. Hope to improve and make it better.

Devlog 4: Making A Proper Readme
It’s my second real — public — hardware project, so writing good readme’s still feels a little bit weird, although it isn’t that hard

Devlog 3: Firmware and a knob
At first I wanted to use the RMK firmware, since it seems is easier to configure, but it’s lack of display support made me choose to go with QMK (for now). I also made a simple knob for the encoder, to make it look better.

Devlog 2: New PCB, New Case
At first I wanted to add leds, but decided to stick with what I had. In the process I made the pcb more compact. Also made a case, still have to make the knob

Devlog 1 - First time designing a PCB

Had to scrap my first design after criss-crossing too many traces. Still fighting kicad to import 3d models – for the switches, and encoder. Once that’s done i will move onto the designing the case.
