My first block editor plugin – a syntax highlighter
Published on July 15, 2021

After finishing the post yesterday, I had a thought (I know, I shouldn't get ahead of myself). I haven't written as much as I like, so I thought I'd get more active. Between yesterday and today, I made a block for the Gutenberg Editor. It took me that long, but…

Published on July 14, 2021

Hello everyone, I don't know how much you've been tracking changes on my blog. I suspect no one has, but that doesn't mean that I don't develop and work on it. There are two things I've done recently you can see. Well, actually three. But I've been waiting on some…

Python
Published on March 9, 2021

Now that we’re in the realm of programming languages, things are going to get quite a bit more technical. There isn’t too much to talk about if I don’t get into the fine details. There is little difference in the WHAT languages can do; it exists mostly in the HOW.…

JavaScript
Published on March 5, 2021

Now that we’ve moved onto a programming language, there is either a lot to say or a little. A programming language is a way to break down everything into a number and organize those numbers in some way. That’s a super abstract way to put things, but everything you do…

HTML and CSS
Published on March 2, 2021

A Soft Intro I’ve been doing mostly web development, so I’ll start there. Web development all starts when you visit a webpage. Your computer sends a request, and a server (just another computer that ‘serves’ the webpage) sends something back. How it decides what to send is called the backend,…
