I use xfce because it is stable, simple and lightweight. Perhaps I don't know what I'm missing but I'm very happy with it.

This month I release an updated version of my "Practice Python Projects" book: https://learnbyexample.github.io/practice_python_projects/

Next, I'm working on a TUI app (using Textual) for board games like Tic Tac Toe and Connect Four. These will also have a modified rule that requires forming a square instead of a line.


This is cool! I am getting back into Python programming after having to work with Angular (with a code base that's a spaghetti mess of poorly used TypeScript), and doing little toy projects like this helps tremendously with bringing back the joy I once experienced with programming.

At the moment I'm building a C++ version of Tic Tac Toe, would be cool to implement it in Python.

Seems like the link changed, and thus not caught by the dupe detector.


Apologies, I overhauled the entire website (backend and all). I wrote a post about it, if you're curious.
