What programming/technical projects have you been working on?
This is a recurring post to discuss programming or other technical projects that we've been working on. Tell us about one of your recent projects, either at work or personal projects. What's interesting about it? Are you having trouble with anything?
Inspired by a recent talk, I built a way to edit my programs without restarting them. 5-minute video: https://spectra.video/w/wkDB5fsjBNBbsqKXGhGzwT. Repo: https://codeberg.org/akkartik/20221018-live.love
It's shocking how little code it took. Just about 500 LoC or so, 400 in the app and 100 added to a fairly generic text editor program. I did it in the Lua LÖVE framework, but really you could do this in any dynamic language.
I made a small sketching/sculpting tool where you draw three views (front, side, and top) which are then intersected to create a 3D model.
It's pretty simple to use, and you can make surprisingly complex models by drawing stuff on different layers.
