Sean Tilley @deadsuperhero.com · Dec 16 I’m writing a desktop music player as part of my Computer Science Class / as an open source thing for my own education. I’ve wisely named it Boomer. It looks like poop and doesn't actually play music yet, but I'm learning a lot. Check out the repo here: codeberg.org/deadsuperher...

Somehow it's giving me nostalgia. I think I miss the spreadsheet feel of old school mp3 players.
Holy shit, latest commit actually can play music now, albeit rather poorly. But it works! codeberg.org/deadsuperher...
Building the UI is still kinda daunting. It feels like I only have two options with Java Swing: code the UI by hand without a visual builder, or use something like WindowBuilder to try to create UI pieces visually. I tried the visual way. feels iffy. Visually looked okay, code looked horrible.
