Client is soooo last year... let's fix that

8 years ago

At the beginning of the year I started rewriting the site into a new framework to make everything perform much better (from angular to vue).

It took about 5 months of full time work to rewrite it, and we pushed it out a couple months ago. The site has been enjoying some really nice changes and updates and feels pretty great to use!

However, the Client… is outdated. Really outdated. When the rewrite happened, we weren’t able to get the Client rewritten to it, so it’s been on the old site codebase, which is much slower and hasn’t gotten the new changes we’ve pushed recently.

Well, get ready, because we finally have some time to finish out rewriting the Client code to use the new codebase as well! Expect a faster and more up-to-date client really really soon.

You can follow along as we work on finishing it out by watching this Github milestone: https://github.com/gamejolt/gamejolt/milestone/1

Let’s get this done!

Ah yes, programming documentation.

Just noticed this on our bidet... Now I'm scared to use it.

Oof, got three sticker packs and got super unlucky with my drop rates for the star haha. I gotta master them all though!

@CROS129

All right, time to place my haul. I need mastery of these stickers.

Modded a Game Gear! Took a long time, but I'm really happy with the results. New screen, speakers, shell, rechargeable batteries, all that. Even has an FM radio chip in it so that when it runs Master System games, it has better music.
