Thanks hope you like it.

It parses files from different launchers like Steam or Bottles preaent on your system, and when the game is selected, it will spawn the command for launching the game directly via e.g. a steam command to launch that specific game ID. It doesn't interact with desktop shortcuts in any way if that's what you mean, though that is how it started

To be completely honest, I probably won't use it again, at least for a while. While it's nice to work with most of the time, I ran into a lot of weird niche issues that I had to either work around or come up with some hack to achieve the same effect, which was unfortunate. As a random example, trying to scroll to the top of the document every time a state was changed would not trigger the scroll consistently, making it pretty useless.

For a site like this, it would probably have been easier to just use a JS framework, or finally go and learn htmx

Definitely not, Civ 5 and Skyrim are still my highest play times and they're not there. Not to mention many of those games I've played only a handful of hours

Not sure how Steam orders the games actually but yes, amazing game and definitely in my top 5 (with mods of course)

Ty 🙏 I find I usually know what game I actually want to play, and just typing in that name to filter for it lets me mostly ignore other games and not feel bad for avoiding them lol

Hey! Figured I haven't posted this on Lemmy before so should be OK to share here in case anyone else finds this cool/interesting.

This is a rofi plugin for launching your games, simple as that. I built it both because I think it looks cool and to make launching the game I know I want to play faster (no need to navigate the dreaded Steam UI). It parses games from several sources, such as Steam, Heroic Games Launcher, Lutris and Bottles, as well as some modded Minecraft instances (check out the readme for instructions).

The repo can be found here, and there's an AUR package available for Arch users.

Let me know what you think! I haven't built all that much but this my favourite tool that I've created (I am addicted to games).

 

Hey all, just sharing a small, single-page site I built using Leptos + TailwindCSS, mainly intended as a demo for an API I built using Axum. Hope someone also finds it interesting!

I'm sharing this site and not the API itself cause I figure it's easier to look at and understand, but if you want to roast some code I would appreciate any feedback you have on the API itself (repo here). Trying to leave the front end developer scene so this is the first API I've tried building, fairly basic but it was fun (I am a big Civ V fan - I hear it's inspired by some niche thing called human history?).

Edit: whoops, looks like the link didn't get set cause I put an image - the site is available here, and the repo for it is here. The live API is available here

I have 2 plugins for rofi on Linux and it's true, no releases - best I can do for you is tags, take it or leave it

Personally I use macchina

Yeah pretty cool. Bit tricky at parts due to (imo) a lack of tutorials / easy to follow examples, but got through it eventually. Felt refreshing to not have to write js/ts

Recently did my portfolio website using Leptos, that was pretty cool. Currently, working on adding modded Minecraft launcher support to my plugin for rofi called rofi-games so the instances can be launched from there

I use GOS but... Google phone...

Even with that title people still missed the sarcasm, mad

A small rofi plugin inspired by nerdy.nvim, made so that I (and hopefully others) don't have to use the web interface just to search for that perfect icon.

If you have any issues please let me know and I will try my best to fix it.

Also available on the AUR as rofi-nerdy.
