Code Along Blog

Dwayne and I got together on Monday night to talk about the future of Code Along Blog. We both decided it was time to call it quits.

We've been at it for roughly 6 months with barely 1 viewer per stream. Even the videos on YouTube barely get any views. After this amount of time I would have expected to have more of a following, but it wasn't the case. I'm not sure what exactly the issue was. Likely, it's just the wrong platform for what we were doing.

After talking about it a bit, I invited him to help me out with Synaptik Labs. He agreed, so look for more videos there soon.

Synaptik Labs

As I mentioned above, Dwayne decided to help me out with Synaptik Labs. I'm definitely looking forward to having someone else helping out.

The YouTube channel reached a milestone earlier this week: 500 subscribers!

I'm currently in the "research phase" for my next series which will talk about Blobs and show a use case for them. It will involve public / private keys and a client / server application.

Work

I'm digging into the recommended app architecture and learning about the Repository pattern and trying to apply it to our simple screens. It isn't as clear cut as I thought it would be.
