Week 44: Halloween 🎃👻

This was my first Halloween ever!
I dressed up as a ghost with nothing but a white sheet from JYSK (cheap & effective 😅). Couldn’t find a costume shop nearby, and honestly, I couldn’t afford an expensive one anyway.

We played an escape room game in some second-year students’ apartment. They had prepared everything really carefully — and it turned out super fun! 🙌

RenderDoc 🖥️

Last month, I spent a lot of time struggling with WebGL shaders.
Not only am I not super familiar with the syntax, but I also wasn’t sure when to use shaders or how to debug them 🤯.

ChatGPT helped a lot (shoutout 🙏), but it still wasn’t enough.

Then I discovered RenderDoc — a free, open-source graphics debugger that lets you capture and replay frames. I haven’t used it yet, but I’ll definitely try it next time.

Meanwhile, in my 2D graphics class, I learned some fun effects in Krita 🎨. I think I’ll try recreating them with shaders soon.


Meta Spatial SDK 🕶️

While helping some students with their VR project, I found out that Meta already released their Spatial SDK.
It even has support for Android Studio and Unreal Engine.

Gonna test both in the coming weeks 👀.


EdTech Hackathon 🚀

I joined a team for an EdTech Hackathon! We’re working on an app to help people study Estonian 🇪🇪.

I came across Ekilex — a digital Estonian dictionary API. The catch? The whole website is in Estonian 😅. So I’ll need some time to figure out how to actually use it.

Excited to see where this goes! 🙌
