πŸ₯³ Vivaldi just released a new version of their #browser, that restricts pinned tabs to the current domain. Outside links open in a new tab. Iβ€˜ve been waiting for this forever!!

⚑️I've released my app to the public! All other fitness trackers are just too bloated. This allows you to: - create training plans (either using AI or by hand) - check each day once you're done - some basic analytics for your ego :) Check it out at: fit.meerpohl.dev #fitness #excercise #training

πŸ†• I'm finally diving into the world of noise. This is a grid distorted by simplex noise and fractal brownian motion. It's fun play around with but I'm not satisfied with the results yet. I want to try domain warping next! Check it out at: πŸ”— meerpohl.dev/v2/grid?seed... #creativecoding #codeart

The tool uses simplex noise and fractal brownian motion to generate a shape that resembles a mountain-like structure. The tool offers lots of parameters to tweak the output.

πŸ†• I have refactored my interactive playgrounds to finally use relative units. This makes them resilient to size changes which in turn allows me to switch up the page design a bit. πŸ”— Check it out at: meerpohl.dev/v2/meta-balls #genart #generativeart #codeart #webdesign #graphicdesign

My soft-proofing saga continues: Sadly colorjs.io doesn't support #CMYK yet. After some research I found #jscolorengine which I can use to load the ISO coated v2 #ICC profile. I can now convert my colors from P3 to CMYK and back. That gives me a good estimate of what the image looks in print. 🫠

GitHub - glennwilton/jsColorEngine: jsColorEngine is a color management engine using ICC profiles in 100% JavaScript.

So my trusted printshop told me I should try exporting my prints as PDF-X4. I was sad to see #inkscape does not support this. But I found #scribus which seems to be the holy grail. The UI looks a bit rough. Just as any good #OSS does. But the color management options are just wow.

I've been adding a font-selector to the wordy-playground. I thought I'd have to scrap the idea because the outlines were drawn weird. After some research I found the magic #CSS: paint-order: stroke fill; It cuts my stroke-width in half but that's fine. Check it out at: meerpohl.dev/wordy

🌟 I might have went a little overboard with the filters. But I was trying them out in inkscape so that I can include them in my tools. SVG in general are weird but maybe I get something out of it. Also, repeating gradients are great! #creativecoding #codeart #graphicdesign #webdesign

#Astro's new experimental font API might finally prompt me to add a font selector to my Wordy playground. Unfortunately, I can't experiment with it just yet due to a bug, but I've already submitted a ticket. Once it's resolved, I'll dive right in!

πŸ€Έβ€β™‚οΈ Improved performance a little bit! For those who don't know, this is an SVG in the browser. Depending on your machine, perf will still be bad. Reduce the number of shapes to get drastically better performance. Check it out at: πŸ”— meerpohl.dev/squaddle?str... #creativecoding #codeart #webdesign

As a developer I'm super hyped for scroll driven animations. As a user I'm super annoyed because they get massively overused. A good example is this: pro.viture.com This is driving mit crazy! Eversthing resizes and moves constantly. Scroll direction is changing. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« #css #webdesign

πŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ¨ Finally back at producing some prints! The colors on this one are extra saturated. I'm trying a new local fineart printing shop. Lets hope the color will come through. You can try the SVG generator as usual on my website! πŸ”— meerpohl.dev/wordy #graphicdesign #webdesign #generativecoding
