🥳 New Kitten Release

• Improved Markdown parser

Kitten’s JavaScript tagged template strings (`kitten.html`) no longer fail to render as expected when interpolated values are used inside of Markdown where the Markdown render changes source order.

So, for example, the following will now work correctly, whereas, previously, the link source and link text would have been erroneously flipped:

kitten.html`
<markdown>
[${linkText}](${linkSource})
</markdown>
`

To implement the fix, I’ve moved Markdown rendering outside of the main render loop and into a pre-render stage and implemented a simple Markdown render tree that non-recursively handles all Markdown region renders.

Run `kitten update` to update your dev machines. Your deployment servers will automatically update in the next few hours.

You can learn more about and install Kitten from the Kitten web site:

#framework #framework12

The Framework 16 laptop detects when it's booted partially assembled. It boots into a special mode to walk you through completing the assembly. The screen updates to reflect your progress and prompt the next step. This requires no tools to complete. Impressive! Watch:

Hey! I've been creating a #game #engine #framework in #vala

Its ECS based, and its called Veggies (eat your veggies!). 🥦

My reasoning for this framework is to have a game framework alternative to #csharp. I'm not liking the encroachment #microsoft has over #gamedev and #indiedev

The video is the well known bunny mark demo. Renders up to 1600 bunnies before being under 30 fps. Still needs a lot of optimization.

I'm taking ideas from frameworks like #pygame, #pine, #FNA and #excaliburjs

Just played through DOGWALK, the Creative Commons-licensed game that was made by Blender Studio and created using Blender and Godot.

It’s absolutely, remarkably gorgeous! And plays great on my #framework 13 at native resolution with controller/rumble support. It’s a 15-30 minute game and completely free, so it’s well worth your time!

I'm going in the opposite direction, aiming for a #Framework laptop for my next.

Have a #Fairphone 4, since it was launched, and not until Fairphone 6 launched recently I've felt the urge to upgrade.

Probably will get the F6, and then the F4 is going to become a dev tool, to try out alternative OSs on a and more.

New blog post, on the joys of hackable tech and the new Framework 12: 'The Framework 12 is the Thinkpad X220 we deserve in 2025'

After the transformation away from US services and products, it's time to go one step further.

As I have already announced, I will soon be replacing my Pixel 9 with Graphene OS with a Fairphone 6 with /e/OS from Murena.

Although I personally really appreciate Graphene OS and am an avid user, I'm not sure what the future will bring under the fascist Trump. As I said, he can force US companies to hand over data of European users or turn off their services for Europe with the stroke of a pen. Or whatever other stupid things this orange psychopath can think of. Pixel devices from Google are another point.

However, I'm still considering a Framework Laptop 12 for my future laptop because of its sustainability and reparability.

Framework? AN US COMPANY??? Yes, unfortunately there is no European equivalent in this field, but unlike software and internet solutions, I am relatively independent after the purchase. The worst case would be if I could no longer buy current components. But then the Framework would be just like any other computer, which is generally almost impossible to repair or upgrade. But I want to keep that option open.

And I hope - like the rest of the world - that the fascist and criminal spook in the USA will soon be over and the situation there will return to some semblance of normality. Hope dies last...
