Watchy V3

I have read quite a few complaints about the Watchy V3. I try not to listen too much to bad press. A lot of the time it's over the top. I ordered a replacement Watchy from Mouser Electronics. You don't really know what version of the Watchy you're buying in my experience, and just figuring out the correct libraries to use can be a journey in of itself. But after 24 hours of using it, I've noticed one serious problem.

JavaScript Classes

I've spent a long time avoiding classes in JavaScript. But I found a legitimate use for them, and now I think I like them.

My Watchy Broke

I like coding. I like tinkering with hardware. I like a good gadget. Watchy is a great way for me to satisfy all of the above. But mine broke yesterday.

Sites Directory

I made a small website to link my various projects together. The design is offensively simple - which I like.

Light Mode Added

While researching accessibility, I read that dark mode can be bad for astigmatism. I have also noticed recently that in my peripheral vision, white text on dark backgrounds can appear to dance around and appears to vibrate. I tend to use dark mode on most apps on my phone, and also began to notice that when I'm tired, white text on dark background appears to vibrate in my direct vision, not just my peripheral vision.
