Godot Template

I'm working on this template for some time. This is what I use to quickly start a game prototype and explore an idea. After this is ready I can polish this better and make it the next step in this. Right now I'm discussing the Logger class that I use across my prototypes.

Keep in mind, all code is AGPL, so if you copy this code your codebase will be AGPL.

All feedback is welcomed.

What makes a good template for gamedev?

I've started this template some time ago, and I think this is solid enough to talk about it and show this code. I'll discuss the template ins and outs along the way, this is the starting point and the reasoning for some decisions.

The first entry is the Logger class.

Keep in mind, all code is AGPL, so if you copy this code your codebase will be AGPL.

All feedback is welcomed.

My GameDev Template

Not sure if this is fully part of this community. But maybe could be a good read for the folks here since this is focused in the GameDev in he Unix systems.

This is how I organize my Godot Template for development. And a fair bunch of code. All code is AGPL so if you use this code, your codebase is also AGPL.

If this is too far from the community, I can delete this post, sorry for streching the community definition.

All feedback is welcomed.

Godot Template that I use

This isn't a framework, this is just a bunch of glue code that I used over the last few years. But now feels like I've a more solid parts that I can share some of the details with other folks. And with that I can discuss about it.

So this the first part, I've more in the oven cooking. But this is is about what makes a good logger (at least for me) to have in the Godot projects.

Keep in mind, all code is AGPL, so if you copy this code your codebase will be AGPL.

All feedback is welcomed.

Linus and Linux as a political tool

In my view, all software is political in one way or another. Also, when software makes an attempt to be "politically neutral", in doing so it is making a political point.

So let's pick the Linus questionable part regarding the not a Social Warrior place, and I feel that it is time to either think about it or talk about it.

Software as a political tool

I think that all software has a certain amount of politics in it and to say that software is non political.. is in itself a political statement.

With the mailchain of Linus... (with lack of better word) questionable quote in the Linux kernel, I think it would be good for us to discuss this issue. What are the politics behind this?

All feedback is welcomed.

Open source is a politial statement

I think that every software is political to an extent. And even when software tries to make its "not political" is in itself this act is political in itself.

With Linus recent suspicious statement regarding the Linux kernel, I believe we should at least try to think on it or debate on it. What is the political intention behind this?

All feedback are welcome.

Every line of code is a politial statement

From my view, all software is political in some sense. And if a software claims that isn't political is a political statement in itself. And with the recent dubious statement from Linus in the Kernel of Linux. I think we should either think about it or discuss about it.

What is the political intention that is happening in this.

All feedback is welcomed.
