The inane mutterings of Alexander Foxleigh
I'm a developer, but beyond that I'm a tech nerd. I'm massively into technology and cool things you can do with it. In this section you'll find stuff not only related to my job but also things related to smart homes, virtual reality and electronics amongst other things.

The Vive Pro is out and the Pimax is on the horizon, whilst it's too early to tell what the Pimax will be like, the reviews are in on the Vive Pro and they all seem to be "Meh, it's a nice little bump but hardly gen 2". So... What DOES Gen 2 look like?
With Ready Player One out in cinemas and a few new headsets on the horizon, Virtual Reality is in the news again. I've been a fan of VR since the original Developer Kit of the Oculus Rift (known as the DK1) went on Kickstarter, I remember when I first received the DK1 and tried it out in 2013, my world was changed forever.
A year ago I wrote an article on how I didn't see the point in tools like Gulp and Grunt. One year later and I have to admit, the old me was an idiot.
During the life of a developer, the tools of the job will change many times over. This is especially true of the text editor; which is often like a comfortable home for the seasoned developer. Some prefer pure text editors, some prefer an IDE, some (like myself) prefer a more hybrid approach, a text editor that is highly extensible and will provide most of the benefits of an IDE without the overhead. For me, Sublime Text 3 is the editor of choice, a decision which was confirmed when I discovered Zen coding.
Front end developers make a lot of changes during builds, especially once the codebase starts to get integrated with backend code. Rather than delete or comment out old code, why not put it in a graveyard file?
Now, this is the story, all about how my data got flipped, turned upside down so I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there, I’ll tell you why I moved my storage into the air.
A few years ago, shortly after moving from Windows to Mac (no regrets!) I discovered an amazing app called CodeKit. This wonderful app runs tasks which are things we UI developers have to do on a regular basis.
If you have spent any amount of time in the media industry, you’ve undoubtedly heard the term coined by Bill Gates back in 1996 “Content is King”
