blog VS awesome

In a similar vein, the developer of BYTEPATH used to use Github issues as their blog. I also thought it was clever. You even get a commenting and reaction system for free!

a327ex/blog : blog from before his bytepath game, it has posts like "Thoughts on making small games", "The Indiepocalypse Isn't Real", "Roguelikes and Grinding", and "Luck Isn't Real"

As for resources, not sure on physical books, but here are a couple of resources I found useful when I started with it: Sheepolution Bytepath's Articles

bytepath tutorial takes you through the creation of a game. Code seems fine, but I haven't looked at it that hard. Unlike most tutorials, it asks you to answer some questions yourself and to implement some content yourself. Seems like a good learning exercise and translating Lua -> C++ will keep you from cooypasting.

Thoughts on making small games

Instead of following tutorials, follow a game making lesson. Try something like the bytepath tutorial, use whatever language/framework you want, and figure out the details of how to make it all work. It will force you to work like a real programmer: googling for how to do things until you've retained enough to solve simple problems on your own (then you Google for harder solutions).

I've noticed lots of people on here feel like imposters because they don't know how to build something from scratch. If you want to practice building things from scratch, check this repo out. It has +70k stars on github, and covers over 20 different programming languages . The projects range from simple (todo list) to advanced (build an excel clone, C compiler, and even a game). I'm not affiliated with this repo, simply stumbled on it and thought of this community.

There's the bytepath tutorial and Sheepolution tutorial .

i'm reading this issue and this thread as i'm looking into migrate to wayland, since sooner or later we'll apparently have (i know this won't be very soon, but wayland is more and more mainstream). I know "any update on this?" is very annoying, and that's why i'm not open an issue, but... Any update on this?

I guess, it's not supported at the moment or you'll have to do some hacks.. There is this issue (#3777) with the same problem.

This is the correction in awesome-git: https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/3657/files

I use the Awesome Window Manager. At it's core, it's a little difficult to figure out. But once you get the hang of assigning hot keys and whatnot, You'll be able to use it more fluently. I use it on all 3 of my machines (two desktops and one laptop). I Love it! I copy my configs from the machine I started it with and put them on the other 2 machines. Works great!
