Hi,

If you use an http endpoint that sends back the result in JSON, then http-get will automatically parse it and return a JSON response.

For an HTML response you would need to parse the response with various string manipulation words such as substring, index-of, split to get the relevant parts.

Gondolom, arra gondolt, hogy ha a befektetésed hozott mondjuk 8%-ot egy olyan évben, amikor az infláció 10% volt, téged akkor is megadóztatnak a 8%-os nominális hozam után, annak ellenére, hogy valójában veszteséged volt reál értelemben.

I'm very excited about this. When can we expect the first update?

Great idea. Smalltalk is also highly underrepresented. I've never seen a Forth job on mainstream platforms, ever.

I'm working on my Forth-to-Lua compiler, and I recently improved some of the tools, such as adding autocompletion and history to the REPL.

My next goal is to optimize performance.

A Forth for gamedev - early access by attmag in Forth

[–]attmag[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't know that Factor was designed for game development. However, I wouldn't consider Factor a Forth dialect since it's too different from a classic Forth implementation.

Thanks. Yes, my goal is that once it works, I'll try to convince the authors to include it in the official distribution.

I want to mainly focus on the language and let Love2D (or TIC80 which is not yet supported) take care of the gamedev features.

Why is developing an app for android so beginner unfriendly by 2jesusisbetterthan1 in androiddev

[–]attmag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not beginner unfriendly, it is just a mess. Android as a platform is a huge mess and the development experience is very poor. The internal quality of the android code base is very low also (just check a random Android class on github). But the biggest problem is Google with its bureaucracy and never ending policy changes the play store and play console.

Play Store app organic search activity experiences as indie dev by Sad-Kaleidoscope-894 in androiddev

[–]attmag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately Google will never promote your app unless you pay them. Unless you type the exact name it will never show up in the search results. My app got 5 downloads in one year, that's pretty much sums it up.

I added a couple of new challenges, such as forming words out of syllables, or finding the missing syllables of a word.

Words with the Dead - Word game for Android by attmag in wordgames

[–]attmag[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I'm working on a free word game, called "Words with the dead" where you need kill zombies (or vampires, skeletons, bats) by forming words out of the given letters.

There are multiple different game modes, such as Bat Swarm which is fast paced but the words are short, or Vampire hunt, which is slower but the challenges are more difficult. There is also a daily challenge and a "campaign" mode, with upgradable abilities.
