React and…The Kitchen Sink?

Scopique April 20, 2022

Strap in, folks, this is going to be a wild ride. Not really. It’s more development talk, so it’s about as wild as a walk in the park, which this project is turning out not to be. I have mentioned that a…

React and Colyseus – Message Handlers Revisited

Scopique April 18, 2022

This is a follow-up to the previous post regarding my attempts to centralize a React app connection to a Colyseus game server. Earlier I had come up with what I had thought was a great way to manage a connection between a…

React and Firebase – Authentication Blues

Scopique April 18, 2022

Sometimes the easiest stuff takes me 10 times longer to implement than it would for pretty much any other developer out there. Exhibit A: authentication with Google’s Firebase. I have probably written about this before, but regardless I’ll provide a crash course…

React, Firebase, and Node/Express – Parsing a Firebase JWT

Scopique March 15, 2022

Continuing my series on blogging about every line of code I write, today’s topic is one that is pretty critical to creating a working auth system that I don’t have to code. If I were rolling my own auth, I wouldn’t have…

Adventure Outliner – The Slightly-Different Generation

Scopique March 7, 2022

Hey! Remember this? Probably not, but that’s OK because not only have I remembered for you, but like clockwork, I’m revisiting this project (literally: my archives say the last access of the original project was March of 2021). For the uninitiated, here’s…

Scopique December 9, 2021

I’m pretty sure I’ve written about this particular struggle before: while I can often grasp the mechanical concepts behind a New Thing, whether it’s coding or VFX or whatever, not having an idea of a “best practice” always throws me for a…

React – Simple Search, Results, and Sortable Header

Scopique October 8, 2021

ReactJS – Custom Hooks for Searching

Scopique July 29, 2021

Most of what I do in my day job involves searching data. As I work for a data-focused company, my primary responsibility revolves around putting a nice face on the ugly body of data storage. Some folks can access the database directly…

React and Colyseus – Custom React Hooks

Scopique June 27, 2021

I will start by giving props to the site useHooks.com, which has afforded me the absolute best breakthrough I have yet to receive in my journey into the world of React. First, what is a hook? In React terms, a hook is…

Win Some, Lose Some, Win Some More

Scopique June 24, 2021

OK so back when I started learning React, I was facing an up hill battle. Despite having done front end work for neigh on 25 years or so now (almost 30 if you count doing it when the Web was still in…
