This so cool! I think i might use this to make one as i have no experience myself.

@VGMoose also what is that GORGEOUS navbar font?
sorry scattered thoughts lol

[TeamSteam]

Like what sites @lollapalooza?

[VGMoose]

@lollapalooza it's https://www.1001fonts.com/gooddog-cool-font.html with the dots removed!

I remember using it cause it looks like the Nintendogs font

@TeamSteam sadgrl.online
w3schools.com is a must
internettingishard.com
html-shark.com

If you're in the @Coders group, there's now a Public Chat for discussing development and assistance!

I've made a beginning coding introduction tool at: https://github.com/vgmoose/GraphCoding#readme

It puts the code you type into the URL, updates the canvas with whatever commands you use, and allows you to edit and share it via long base64 links, for example:

The above will render the following graph and text on the canvas:

And this is the code it used (Javascript):

// set the font and draw these words
setFontSize(17);
drawText("hello", -5, 8);
drawText("these are some words", -4, 6);
drawText("neat", -3, 4);

// set a variable
var bigText = "COOL!";

// draw that variable twice near eachother
setFontSize(40);
setColor("blue");
drawText(bigText, -5, -1);
setColor("red");
drawText(bigText, -5.2, -1.2);

// draw sine and cosine waves
setColor("green")
for (var x=xMin; x<xMax; x+=0.2)
{
  setColor("green")
  plot(x+1, Math.sin(x) - 5);
  setColor("purple")
  plot(x, Math.cos(x) - 5);
}

Bumping this thread! Anyone working on some interesting projects?

Also, we might add basic web hosting to BDNS, so each user can have their own profile page to edit and manage (similar to caard's).
