C++ Projects

It is extremely difficult to be productive with C/C++. Build systems and development workflows are hard to get right, and getting them wrong has huge cost.

I implemented yet-another-meta-build-system as an attempt to make recurring build-system interactions a bug rather than a feature.

Anothing missing piece is code generation, such as for network protocol definitions or HAL interfaces for firmware. I use ifgen for all code-generation needs.

In the end my entire Python ecosystem exists mainly to support mission-critical application development done in C/C++.

I use the following projects to test the build system, which supports nested dependencies:

Real projects:

Python Projects

What's Python?

Check out the YouTube series I'm working on where I go over my workflow and document notable feature developments.

Packages I've created are derived from python-package-template, a custom cookiecutter template. A project template (that leverages a config repository to keep templates synchronized in the long-term) makes it easier to start writing code as a next step immediately after justifying a new project.

See also: generated documentation (created with pydoc). Information about each project can be found on that project's README.md linked below.

TypeScript Projects

What's TypeScript?

I got typescript-package-template into a usable state (similar to the one I'm using for Python projects) and spent time on console, but building an application for a browser is too labor-intensive to be practical for the kind of user-interface application(s) I'm looking to build.

It would be faster to implement a TUI graphics library from scratch in C++ than it would be to use TypeScript and web technologies to build even a single application, so that's my current plan.
