I created a Github repo!
See you in the next one!

Devlog 1, what it is?

ReadBear is a cute app for reading Comics (.cbz) and hopefully EPUB books! It is written in Jetpack Compose and will be Android only.

What have I done?

I made importing the comics/mangas through file, adding it to database and indexing for reading. You can click on the comic/manga and start to read it! There is some customising options but not that many as I would like in the finished product

This is my first Android app!

I really love the Material Design and UI so I am happy to use Compose! This is my first time in Kotlin (coming from Java) so it is a bit confusing, but I like it!

Ooopsies! I forgot to create a project and post devlogs on this app!

Devlog #8

What I cooked up with all that time?

• I updated Velocity-API version which resulted in Java Version bump (and a lot of pain)
• I added banning (for the whole server network)
• Updated proxie command
• I finally learned Brigadier command and it all makes sense
• Added a bunch of APIs
• Added PlayerSession so everything is snappy and doesn’t require constant lookups in DB
• Finished premium and offline login modules

On what I will focus next?

• Making the bans better
• Ping protection
• A bunch of random utilities for sure

Hope to see you in the next devlog!

Devlog #7

What have I done?

• I finished premium logon for 1.19.3 and below (it is kinda funky so I will continue working on that) as shown in the video
• I added PlayerCache so now everything related to player and DB is only fetched once
• Logging in for offline-mode players is much faster due to changes in hashing
• I migrated for now from UUIDs to usernames in PlayerState due to UUID being absent on versions 1.19.3 and below (what a pescy versions for devs XD)

What I will focus on now?

• improving premium logon
• improving english I18N and style of the plugin
• protection agains bots and malicious pings

Hope to see you in the next devlog!

Devlog #6

What have I been doing?

I figured out that doing my own “YAML-like” structure for making commands is not a great idea and I should just use build-in stuff that is already great (Brigadier in Velocity API), so now I can move to logging in for versions 1.19.3 and below.

Some other news?

I switched to Linux full time! Unless I hope I will be able to stay here . So now all my heartbeats are from a linux mashine :)

Hope to see you in the next update

Devlog #5

I am going to ship the project now! I made some finishing touches to the README, added license and all that utilities!

Thanks for tagging along!

Devlog #4

I have deployed my app on github pages!

Check it out now: https://tulis12.github.io/WishAndCommit

What I changed

I prepped the repo for Pages and added some features - “orange” days are these when you coded but not enough or on other projects. Pace is now calculated correctly, and doesn’t change if you change the goal (yes it did that sometimes ). But now I see that my goal (Macbook Neo) requires a lot of work and maybe admin’s blessing

Hope to see you soon!

Devlog #3 - Close to a ship

What I made?

I made a clear UI and all options configurable - like I said, everything runs in the browser. I made it accessible on mobiles and added some features such as pace and predicted time when you will reach your goal.

I hope to see you in near future when I ship this project!

Devlog #2

Business logic is done!

Fetching from Hackatime (dates, projects and all that stuff) and saving to the browser to avoid DOSing the API by mistake is done! Now I need to cook up a beautiful UI with calendar.

What I figured out

Firstly I thought that I need your API token to do all the fetching, but I find out that I can access your publicly avaliable data using only your ID (not me of course, you )

So it is much more “trustable” and ofc you can download it and use it locally.

Devlog #1 (and probably last from ship)

What this project is?

It is a simple web app that lets you track your progress without a backend! You select what you wish for and you see estimates on how much time you have to spend cooking up awesome projects!

How will this work?

You input your Hackatime id and fetch your coding time and see how much you have to code and for how long.

Is this safe?

Yes. Everything is stored only in your browser and this will fetch only publicly avaliable data (if enabled in settings) no API key is required.

The screenshot is just basic template of how this will look.

Devlog #5

I finally won the battle with permissions (only on the plugin side)

I made a cool command schema in YAML similar to what Spigot API has but with autocompletions and permissions based on arguments. I am making this to make the arguments i18n-able (I dunno tho if it is a good idea)

Now everything is ultra-secure

Or I hope so -_-! I will deploy this on my server with friends as they are beautiful bug hunters. It fully works with luckperms as this is what I used to test this, and now its time to make my own provider

My DB choice

I am wondering whether I should use MySQL or H2 by default (as LuckPerms does) it would make it a lot smoother for end user but much harder for me :(

What I will be working on now?

• make a permissions provider
• make the /proxie command
• fix some bugs

I was fighting with this dumb issue for too long , but now I can continue!

Devlog #4

What I implemented?

• I rewrote I18N for command suggestions (auto completion) and syntax, it is MUCH clearer now
• I researched some options for my plugin, I plan adding social links and configurable Tab
• Started working on proxiesuite command (reloading, administrating and configuring)

On what I will focus now?

• I will continue working on the proxiesuite command
• Continue working on login

See you in the next devlog! (this one is a little bit shorter)

Devlog #3

What I implemented?

• I finished login and register for offline-mode users, now I will focus on versions 1.19.3 and below!
• Added some jokes
• Made i18n much more readable, now I use it with commands
• Made some utilities for commands such as auto completion with i18n, auto usage with i18n

On what I will focus now?

• Logging in for versions 1.19.3 (It works but I need to add some info for people to know what to do, also premium login )
• Protection against scanners
• Simple protections against bots
• Admin commands

I created a Github repo!
