Daily Devlog 3:
today i got the first piece of ui working with the lil white bar also i did 3 hours today but because noctalia set my time and date to a random time it broke
other stuff added:
-autolocation that the weather module uses and refreshes hourly
-the top bar which i moved to topbar.qml after testing on main.qml
-made main.py detect if the data dir exists and creates if not (without it everything breaks)
stuff to do:
-make main.qml actually coordinate the other qml modules and future modules
-make the topbar use the dumped clock.json for the clock
Daily Devlog 2
made a concept art with heavy inspo from noctalia shell which i use concept in the photo bellow. Since the concept was made in canva the icons and general proportions are off and are likely gonna be changed, this concept is a very early one and likely not gonna be like this
Added the functionality to make qs -c machui turn on the main.py python file and also for main.qml
other changes
-Added a module to get some battery info and dump into a .json then added to the main.py loop and made it recheck the battery info every 4 seconds (comment if thats too high because i dunno yet)
stuff to do
-add modules for weather, a calander and tasks system
-start the actual ui with quickshell by starting with a top bar that has uses the clock info given by python
Daily devlog 1:
Just started on the python backend that is meant to gather everything and dumps it to a json before quickshell uses is. Started with a basic clock module and will add weather and other stuff when needed
