I excitedly joined the Mozilla Developer Network content team three weeks ago. I originally wrote this post for the MDN blog. I then learned that the post didn’t match the content guidelines for the blog, so I’m reproducing the full text of my draft post here. As I progress through life and learn about what’s meaningful to me, I’ve grown to understand the importance of feeling seen. To that end, I’m grateful to have the…

I still maintain it’s the best flip phone I’ve ever used. After that, I used an LG enV Touch, which was also an excellent device. Both of these phones took perfectly fine images…
Here’s a simple Processing sketch that renders some 2D graphics. Maybe it’ll inspire or help you if you’re looking to get into 2D graphics using Processing. As part of my Computer Graphics course, I’m required to write multiple 2D and 3D programs throughout the semester. This was my very first assignment! You can find more information about the Processing programming language at Processing.org.
