No RIP.
Best thing I'll ever make.

Finalizing my p5.js sketchplugin. It will allow designers to write p5.js code directly inside Sketch. Releasing this or next week after months of work. It's a bit bittersweet.

I can't figure out how to send you a DM but shoot me an email at jacopo.colo@gmail.com and I’ll send you a link for beta testing :)
Sent - Thanks Jacopo!

Not a side project but I'm learning 3D modeling in Blender, I'm getting more and more fascinated by it.

Min Jun Kim, over 5 years ago Love it! Did you draw those amazing illustrations yourself?
Aloke Pillai, over 5 years ago Thank you! No, had a friend illustrate it for us :)
Bagus Fikri, over 5 years ago that is your own project/business? looks amazing...
Aloke Pillai, over 5 years ago Yes it is! Thank you. Our current challenge is to figure out how to surface the trial/demo beyond the sign up form. Have some ideas to make the hero into a mini product demo. Gonna be a fun exploration though!
Jonathan White, over 5 years ago Wow, love the visual direction you took. What was the inspiration for the product?
Aloke Pillai, over 5 years ago Thanks Jonathan! As freelancers, we used screenshots and emails to track feedback to iterate on websites. That got annoying very quickly so we wanted to create a simple click and type experience on the websites we were working on. Thanks for asking :)

I am exploring VueJS these days and try to build a shopping app for me and my girlfriend :P maria.withlarry.com
Interesting take! How do you guys use this? Do you stop by the store daily to get certain items? When do you know to grab your weekly or monthly items? Will it have reminders?
Good questions Andy! I make the same questions for myself as well. To be honest I don't think Daily/Weekly/Monthly Categorization will stay. That was just my logic of doing groceries. Probably it will be 3 main categories (like: Food, Cleaning Stuff, I don't know... still working on that). The idea is that all categories "export" into the same bucket(list) if one of the items has an amount more than 0. Ideally you would be able to export the list to a To-Do app, print it or just use the app in the supermarket will you shop.
This also works as inspiration when you want to make your groceries list. My girlfriend always forgets what she wants when I go to the supermarket, so having a list of things we have bought before is very convenient.
It's very early stage of the app and also a playground for me to learn VueJs, but fun and hopefully useful as well.
I def will create the option to have personal accounts and then have combined lists with people you want.
Cool, this all makes sense. I use Google Keep for groceries and for anything needing a list really, and it works really well. They also autocomplete groceries you've entered in the past, or just food items in general, it's pretty sweet! There's some good inspiration there.
I'm always intrigued by little projects like these and seeing how different people think and organize information, even when it's simple things like groceries. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah, and btw, regarding the reminders. I haven't given it a lot of thought yet but I was thinking for 3 types of them. 1) Based on how many things are in the basket (more than 20 means you need to go to the super market) 2) Location based (you woke next to the supermarket, hey why not buy some of the stuff on the list) 3) Time based (just finished work, buy some stuff before going back home).

I recently got into photogrammetry, which is reconstructing objects or scenes in 3d using a series of photographs. I'm trying to do my backyard:
results: https://i.imgur.com/SNj55Bh.png
actual photo (for reference): https://i.imgur.com/rVqQuoj.jpg
I'm using a tool called Agisoft Photoscan to do the work. I've definitely run into a few issues with shooting on a sunny day (trying to maintain the same exposure and lens flairs :/ )
Not super happy with the results yet. Gonna keep working on it.
Weston Thayer, over 5 years ago That's awesome! Working image links if anyone else is getting a 403 (https://imgur.com/SNj55Bh, https://imgur.com/rVqQuoj).
I've been working on learning SketchUp to design an addition to our shed. Something like this would be super nice, manually measuring and modeling was slow. Canvas seemed like another interesting option.

I love this! I'm currently working on a small web app for creating and distributing ranked choice polls in order to show its benefits over traditional plurality voting.
Thanks! That's a cool idea, is that by any chance the way places like Australia run their elections or am I confusing concepts?
Yes, that's exactly right! Nicky Case put together an amazing "explorable explanation" for voting systems here: http://ncase.me/ballot/
Wow, this interactive article is awesome. How have I not seen this before?
I lowkey have a crush on Nicky Case. Glad you like it!

Jonathan White, over 5 years ago Oh, clever. Never thought to use comments to create issues.

I love this. Unfortunately I just moved away from Github but this is fantastic.

Rebuilding https://sitesee.co
The design will mostly be the same, but we're switching to a different stack, changing the way collections work, and creating a shop.
Jonathan White, over 5 years ago Switching stacks is a lot of work! What are you switching to? Also, what will you be selling in your shop?

The weekend just past, I prepared and raced an old car in an amateur dirt rally event. Managed to take 3rd overall from a grid of 12 cars. Pic
The coming weekend I'll be working on my actual race car. Pic
She needs a brake/clutch fluid change and new rubber on the rear. I'll probably also give it a good bath.
I prefer to have something physical to play with on the weekend, when I'm not stuck in front of a computer monday-friday.

I'm making some minor updates to my main side project Dubolt, mainly some minor interaction tweaks and some backend setup for some new features not directly relying on Spotify.
I'm also working on my portfolio, which I haven't really updated in a few years and is really long in the tooth.
