About Me

My name is Karlo Koelewijn, a Medior developer with experience since 2018.
On my previous game-dev study on GLU (Grafish Lyceum Utrecht Niv. 4) i learned C#, PHP, and SQL.
I choose to Learn C++ for my advanced elective course because it looked interesting to learn a deeper language and how processors work.
I had a slight interest in micro-controllers before starting at Fontys, I also enjoy reading manga and don't find it strange when I catch myself reading through documentation of projects or libraries.
In my free time I also play game (solo and multiplayer) from multiple genres.
After learning some networking coding on GLU i got myself a raspberry pi and dove into the rabbit-hole known as a homelab, and currently have a few pi's and my own mail-server.

how am i hosting this?

This website is hosted on a raspberry pi running a nginx docker image.
which is accessed through an reverse proxy on my VPS (virtual private server).

guiBase Library (C++)

library for creating cross-platform gui apps
using glfw and vulkan to render imgui
this allows the user to focus on making something without having to focus on specific platform or toolkit quirks

works on:

• linux
• windows
• mac (untested as i don't own one)

Visual Studio TaskList Viewer

unity asset store

A Unity Tool for developers to keep track of todo-comments in their Unity project.
works on both gameplay and Editor scripts, inside a custom Unity Editor window.

you can decide for yourself how you plan to use it, it works on both game-play scripts and editor scripts and won't be taken along when you make your build.

how to use

inside any .cs file inside the project.

kazNoTabi Thank you！ 5/5★

previously, I was searching using the Grep, but with this asset, the hassle has been reduced.

HoloMikeyz An incredibly powerful tool! One of the best freebies! 5/5★

I have a lot of assets. This one assets is near the top of my list in terms of productivity.
All the TODO items you wrote in code are in a list for you to peruse.
This one tool has really brought the ability to focus on the task needed to ship code. Well done!

SooNice Thanks for usefull asset 5/5★

Really like it.

guiBase Library

git repo

I made this library to simplify making gui apps in c++.
it uses GLFW and dearImGui with vulkan rendering.
this allows the user to focus on making an application without having to worry about most cross-platform nicknacks.

the included example shows a working example of how to setup your cmake project, entrypoint and layers.
each layer is meant to be its own window, below is a minimal example.

class exampleLayer : public guiBase::Layer {
public:
    exampleLayer() = default;

public:
    // void onAttach() override {
    // }

    void onUpdate() override {
        if (ImGui::Begin("example")) {
            ImGui::Text("%s", "example text");
        }
        ImGui::End();
    }

    // void onDetach() override {
    // }

private:
};

I have been using this library for multiple personal projects and in combination with other libraries without issue

cmsis car

TLDR -> Source Code

My Nucleo car in C++ CMSIS

This project had the goal to drive the nucleo car with the following challenges.

using 2 servos (using pwm) pid controller (distance control) ultra sonic distance sensing (using i2c) MCP (manual control pannel) uart control

de intent behind this project is to learn CMSIS level programming on Arm Cortex cores. this was done as part of my HBO-ICT tech embedded systems developer. it continuously drives forward until it detects a obstacle with the distance sensor.

Discord Bot C#

I got curious how bots worked in discord so i made my own using the Discord.Net api and a C# console window.
It has a few simple and some other more complex commands, It was a bit of a challenge to decipher the api but after some careful reading i got it to work.

Seeing it has been a few years since i last looked at the code, it is currently not working due to discord having updated their API.

git page

Bot Commands

• No

  • tell the bot no, it responds with awh.

• Wisper

  • resend the message after the command as the bot.

helpModule

• H

  • prints a help message explaining how to use a command.

  • 

voiceChatModule

• All

  • prints a list of all users in all voice-chats in the discord server

• Status

  • prints a list of every user in the voice-call the user is in.

diceRollModule

• Roll

  • dnd dice roller. roll a n sided dice: d20

  • dnd dice roller. roll a n sided dice m number of times: 3d6

Game of Life Console

To long didn’t read -> Source Code

This project was a throwaway at first until a friend told me to upload it to my portfolio to show my capabilities in C++ after a few weeks of learning the language.
I kept this as simple as I could, considering I didn’t plan to show it off in the first place and was trying to get it to work.
I used a frame buffer technique I saw on YouTube by Javidx9 using the ‘Windows.h’ and the WriteConsoleOutputCharacter macro.

Below are screenshots of a run

SerieList Editor

A utility program for keeping track of where you are with your series offline. while being fully offline it does offer OMDb info pages that do require web access.

offline

Using a JSON file it keeps track of all the data. you can type in the title, select which season and episode you are in with a simple dropdown menu and you can leave a note for yourself typing in where you were in the episode or even what you thought of it.

online

When you click the “Display Online Info button” (assuming you don’t have a typo in the title field) it opens a new window that displays the poster, title, description, age rating, type (series/movie), amount of seasons, IMDB rating and the description. You can press the button on the bottom of the Online window to open its IMDB page.
