Isn’t it wonderful how the whole technology is working around us? I mean, whenever we connected to a WiFi we can open up the browser and type all sorts of webpages that do all kinds of stuff. But how is this whole thing work? I think it’s worth spending a few minutes to understand the underlying infrastructure and general working principles. In this post, I will go through all the interesting bits and pieces of the web and show you a few things you can try out in the browser right now!

Did you ever felt having trouble focusing? Being difficult to force yourself to do the work, which requires your real attention? In the age of the internet and constant smartphone checking, even the most ordinary actions might seems to require some perseverance. Let’s dive deep into what’s going on! If we want to improve anything, we should first understand it! First of all, let’s discuss what’s focus. Based on Merriam-Webster It’s

With Docker, you can do a lot of things. It’s the defacto containerization tool for cloud software, but it can do much much more. You can host almost anything in it! It can host locally a wordpress blog on your computer, multiple database environments for your projects and it can even run Minecraft or even Quake 3 servers! You can run docker images on your Raspberry Pi or your Windows PC with the same results.

I’ve found populating a list with similar, but dynamically changing elements in unity is a relatively frequent challenge. Especially in mobile game development. I did a few idle/incremental games and they have many of these kinds of menus for upgrading player stats or even the premium/shop menus. For example, you want a list of items the player can buy.

This caused some serious issues with my first game. Based on how you implement the callback logic on the button you might encounter similar bugs. I’ve found this workaround. Inherit your own “mobile safe” Button class and start using that.

Everything is indeed better when animated. Especially the menus. I bet you feel the same when you create the first few versions of your passion project and it just feels cold. Something is missing. Maybe it’s the missing menu animations! This is why started to use this trick across all my projects. It is perfect enough for some basic menu animations.

I want to show you a neat little trick, that utilizes the slick extension methods of C#! What If I tell you, that you can remove all of the child GameObjects of any Unity transform object with only one line of code? That would be awesome right? And let me tell you it’s not an old-school method call. To add extension methods to C# (extend the methods of an existing closed class) you have to create a public static class.
