With this repository I set out to explore a variety of topics through code. Code meaning HTML, CSS, JavaScript, but also Lua, C++, and all possible utilities designed around these languages.

10PRINT

Explore the 10 print algorithm to specifically simulate rain.

Keywords: JavaScript, canvas, input

Live demo(s): 10PRINT Rain Simulation

Binary Numbers

Create a binary counter and illustrate how bit shifting works.

Keywords: JavaScript, binary, decimal, bitwise operators

Live demo(s): Binary Counter, Bit Shifting

Additional notes: the bit shifting demo is recreated and enhanced with Svelte. The project is discussed in this repository and available in this REPL.
