Canvas based GUI library for p5.js sketches

What it does

I’d like to offer you a early preview to a p5.js library that allow p5.js users to create GUI based programs on top of the canvas. The library itself is implemented using p5.js API and is drawing all the controls on top of the canvas. The intent is to use the library on codeguppy.com (for teaching purposes) and also made available as open source. Are you interested? This looks really exciting especially as I am keen to create web-based interactive guides to support my own Java based libraries. I have been thinking for a long time about creating a cut down version of G4P using JS but to be honest my JS programming knowledge is really basic and there have always been others things in Java for…from discourse.processing.org

  When I started my career and built my first design system, I was beyond excited. It took a lot of iterations, learning and 6 months of work to launch it internally. In the next job, I did it again, then at the following job, again… And no matter which company I worked for, 80% of the design system was the same. I’ve decided to work full-time on the design system I’ve always wanted, and today I’m launching and open-sourcing it. You can use it to build Next.js apps faster, and I’ve designed it in a way that it’s hard to go wrong with it: you can choose any settings, and you’ll end up with a…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
