Catch-all location for learning new things.

I got tired of making new projects every time I wanted to learn a new programming language or framework, so I decided to make a monorepo instead.

Please note!! Nothing in here is garunteed to be in any sort of working order. By definition, the entire thing is very much a work in progress.

What's in the box?

... an awful lot of stuff.

As of time of writing, I've used this repo as a space for learning about:

• Dart, Google's client-geared language for building cross- platforms applications using
• Flutter, a cross-platform app framework
• Rust, a memory-safe systems-level programming language optimized for Annoying People (that's me, hi, I am Annoying People)
• Maybe some throwaway python scripts if I ever get them in here?

Project Breakdown

Highly unlikely anyone but me will ever see anything in this repo, but just in case, it's worth noting there is indeed a method to my madness here.

• Advent of Code solutions, sorted first by year and then by language
  • 2022:
    • Dart (10/25)
    • Rust (1/25)
  • 2023:
    • Rust (1/25)
• Asteroids, a web-oriented rework of the classic arcade game with some personal touches (for both fun and copyright infringement avoidance!). This is a smaller effort within the larger scope of reworking my personal website, nicolena.net.
  • Dart
  • Flame, a game engine for Flutter
  • Flutter
• Project Euler solutions sorted first by language and then by problem
  • Rust (x/n)
• Exercism solutions
  • Rust (x/n)
• Flutter Tutorials, my Flutter mega-app for getting more familiar with the framework and experimenting with self-contained concepts. Mostly just following along with the YouTube tutorials though.
  • Dart
  • Flutter
• Nicolena Dot Net, the current WIP version of my personal website, [nicolena.net](). Once this is in better working order, I'll be moving it into its own repo.
  • Dart
  • Flame
  • Flutter
  • Maybe some backend Rust/SQL?
