#genuary31 #genuary

At the beginning of the month I thought the library was close to ready, but spending all month with it made me realize there are 2-3 big things I want to do before stabilizing the API. I also added a lot of features as I went, but most are poorly documented.

It's been fun sharing these & seeing everyone else's all month!
my HTML-only #genuary28 will be the polished/updated version of the site & docs for honeycombs/h9.js, the library I've been using for all of these, but that'll probably be in a few weeks.

most of the work on this one was an experimental WebGL renderer backend, honeycombs/h9.js now has SVG, canvas, and WebGL renderers.

felt fitting to demonstrate w/ a return to one shape one color.

Genuary 30: oops all bugs, a collection of interesting glitches that accumulated throughout the month while working on other sketches

This one was really short since h9 already had a polar coordinate reference system built in. 7 variables and a 2-line draw loop! Code here:

definitely more fun to watch the interactive than the gif:

Genuary 5: Write Genuary, No Fonts.

I'd been meaning to add generic SVG path support and took the opportunity to do so today. The animation is built from path drawables being animated along paths, I'm happy with how simple the final h9 code wound up being.

code at: h9.bees.free/genuary26/05...

#genuary2026 #genuary #genuary4 I'm using these prompts to iterate on h9, which is a mostly-SVG-based
geometric drawing tool, so this one posed an interesting challenge.

I decided I'd take the opportunity to try out my hardly-used Canvas backend and adapted a vector sketch to this pixelated look
