RoguePlanetoid Weekly Update #7
24th February 2023
This week saw the last couple of Tutorials for now for Windows App SDK on
tutorialr.com of Donut Control and Light Game.
There's now fifty Tutorials for Windows App SDK available and looking forward to posting more later this year
but it won't be the last thing about the Windows App SDK as there will be a Podcast episode about it on 1st March!
This week attended the North East Azure User Group which can read about at North East Azure User Group February 2023
and it was the first time I'd attended that event and it was really interesting to catch up with a few people I knew and meet a few I didn't too, looking forward to the next one!
There was also Tech on the Tyne about Introducing Data Science, to understand what Twitter really thinks of Elon!
which can read about at Introducing Data Science, to understand what Twitter really thinks of Elon!
I'd held the last one they did but was really great to be on the other side this time and was an interesting talk and workshop and really looking forward to the next Tech on the Tyne!
This week also saw me starting a brand new job at Bede Gaming and had a grear first week there getting to know those there
and after getting setup and started have been working on a few things already which has been great and looking forward to seeing what I can do, learn and share there!
tutorialr.com Tutorial Tuesday - Windows App SDK - Set Thirteen - Part One
22nd February 2023
It the last Tutorial Tuesday for now on tutorialr.com
with two new Tutorials for Windows App SDK that you can follow and build some controls,
bringing the total number of Tutorials to fifty!

RoguePlanetoid Weekly Update #6
17th February 2023
This week also the last four game Tutorials for Windows App SDK on
tutorialr.com of Flags Game, Emoji Game,
Words Game and Yatzy Game. It was especially interesting to write the Words Game
as had planned on doing a Lingo game many years ago before Wordle but liked the keyboard mechanic of the latter game,
so was good to implement that functionality. Next Tutorial Tuesday will finish off the first fifty Tutorials
with the rest coming later this year.
With a new year comes new talks to attend, next week will be at Tech on the Tyne about Introducing Data Science, to understand what Twitter really thinks of Elon!
by Dr Hollie Johnson. Was great to be able to hold my Workshop about Blazorfy last year so am looking forward to being on the other side this time!
although it is the same day as NEBytes so will hopefully catch that one which is about Troubleshooting Azure with Application Insights by Mike Stephenson.
This week I attended my very first Concert at Sage Gateshead which was Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells - The 50th Anniversary Celebration UK Tour 2023 and it was amazing,
also had a wonderful dinner in the Brasserie there beforehand, which I highly recommend if attending anything there! Although Mike Oldfield himself was not involved it is the closest I'll
probably ever get of a live performance in person of his work and was not disappointed, the performers were incredible, loved the way some moved around the stage and was great to experience it in my home town of Gateshead.

RoguePlanetoid Weekly Update #5
10th February 2023
This week saw the start of adding some classic Articles from the past which will be added each week, with the first being about
Developer Day 2019 which was a great event a few years ago that I attended and presented at
about Spotify for Developers and was the biggest event I've spoken at! Also, this week saw an Article about
Bringing intelligence next gen with Bing which was about new features being introduced to the
Bing search engine powered by AI, it will be interesting to see how this will be used and will be something will cover in the future in more detail!
This week also saw another four Tutorials for Windows App SDK on
tutorialr.com of Order Game, Slide Game,
Codes Game and Match Game. Also, to allow time to work on other projects, once the first fifty Tutorials
for Windows App SDK are published then will publish the remaining fifty later in the year. However, there will be more about Windows App SDK
as next month's Podcast will be about it!
At the half-way point of the Tutorials for Windows App SDK it will be great to work on some new projects, which includes some brand-new
Presentations as well as updates to other Projects, and will share Posts about these as soon as I can! 2022 was a great
year where I did so many different things and aim to do even more this year!

RoguePlanetoid Weekly Update #4
3rd February 2023
RoguePlanetoid Podcast launched this week which was hinted at last week, which answered the question
of what is the blue for in the RoguePlanetoid logo! The RoguePlanetoid Podcast will be
published each month with the first being an Overview of 2022 along with Content Creation with AI.
I'm happy to take input from the community to see what should be covered and if possible speak to others in the community and get them
on the podcast, if you're interested then can contact me on Twitter.
This week saw the addition of another four Tutorials for Windows App SDK on
tutorialr.com available in PDF and HTML of
Fruit Game, Touch Game, Light Game and Tiles Game.
Hopefully once all the Tutorials for games have been published it might just be the one
of the largest collection of free and open-source games using Windows App SDK out there!
There will also be some more Articles being posted here on the website this month which will include a couple about
Spotify along with adding some Articles from
LinkedIn. It is good updating a website again this year,
it is in fact a very special year as it is twenty-five years since I started my original website and there will be Posts,
Articles and a Podcast about this coming later in the year!
