Excited to share that my fantastic PhD supervisor and mentor, Professor Matthew Yee-King, has written an insightful book titled "Build AI-Enhanced Audio Plugins with C++". Today, he donated a copy to the Goldsmiths, University of London library.

For anyone passionate about music programming and AI, this is a must-read!

Today is officially my first week as a Computer Science PhD student at @goldsmithsuol
β—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύ
I am really excited and honoured to be part of this warm and innovative department which has believed in me and offered me a stable position for the past 2 years.
β—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύ
My studies will research the potential positive correlation between games/play and education, with a strong focus on motivation.
β—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύβ—Ύ
Motivation is our most powerful and valuable source that keeps us going. Do you agree?

Following the completion of "The Complete React Developer Course (w/ Hooks and Redux)"course on Udemy by Andrew Mead, I decided to build a little web app to practice my new set of skills.πŸ”₯
I am not sure about you guys but I need to apply the learnings to my own context in order to get a good understanding.
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
I thought about something simple that I really need on a weekly/daily basis and made a shopping list web app.🌐 The app uses the followings:
βœ… React (Front-end rendering )
βœ… React-Router (Client-side routing)
βœ… Redux (Managing states)
βœ… Express (Web Server for static assets)
βœ… Firebase (Back-end service)

There is not much thought into the design process and it is definitely not super user friendly but I just wanted to combine the learnings quickly and make something.πŸ’»
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
Feel free to use it for your shopping πŸ˜€

Happy Weekend you allπŸ˜€
I have just completed the "The Complete React Developer Course (w/ Hooks and Redux)"course on Udemy by Andrew Mead.πŸ”₯
I am new to React and found the course really well structured and easy to follow. πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
The instructor shows all the steps from building a React boilerplate app using Webpack and Babel to initialise a react app using the ''create-react-app" package.πŸ‘
There is plenty of content to explore and it is all explained with passion and motivation: βœ… JSX and React rendering
βœ… React Components
βœ… Stateless Function Components
βœ… States, Props, and Bindings
βœ… React Lifecycles
βœ… React-Router
βœ… React Styling with SCSS
βœ… Redux, React-Redux, Reducers and Actions
βœ… Hooks and Context API
βœ… Firebase βœ… Testing with Jest

During the course you will go through the development and deployment of two fully functional applications, both coming with guided exercises and challenges.
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
I really enjoy using this lightweighted library and cannot wait to create more with it. Are you a React lover or did take the course in the past?

Happy Monday πŸ˜€
I took advantage of today's bank holiday to learn more about the MERN stack. I built this exercise tracking app following a great YouTube tutorial video. The stack acronym stands for: βœ… Mongo (database)
βœ… Express (backend framework)
βœ… React (front-end library)
βœ… Node (Js runtime environment)

I will definitely spend more time learning this development pipeline and might use it in the near future to create more learning interactive material. πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
What do you guys think about MERN?

Hello everyone, how is your week going?πŸ˜€
The situation is still pretty rough here in the UK and I am trying my best not to go out for unecessary things!
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
The bright side is that now I don't have any excuses not to be productive.πŸ”₯
On top of my daily basis job schedule, I am learning more about React development and Game design.
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
Here you can see an attempt to make a multiple choice quiz generator using components.
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
I have also finished reading the 'Games, Design and Play' book. It is a great source to understand the basic elements of games, the iterative process involved in developing them, and the kinds of experiences they create.πŸ•ΉοΈ
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
Why suddenly reading about game design?
I have exciting news to share soon.πŸ˜€

Happy Thursday everyoneπŸ˜€
How is the current lockdown situation going for you? I am reading this great book which describes various concepts of game design.
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
I hope to take away valuable tips and apply them to my future gamified educational plugins.πŸ”₯
How has your week been so far?

Hello everyone!
Hope you are having a nice weekend πŸ˜€
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
I have been self-isolating for roughly 2 weeks now and took the opportunity to learn new dev tools.
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
It is very difficult to stay productive during this difficult time but luckily I have plenty of work to do.
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
I am currently taking the ''The complete React developer course" course on Udemy and produced my very first application using this new framework. The course also covers great tools and libraries to include in your projects such as Babel, WebPack and Sass.πŸ”₯
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
Looking forward to learn more about REACT! Meantime remember to exercise, wash your hands and drink plenty of water!πŸ’¦
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
How do you keep yourself motivated during the isolation time?

Happy Monday everyone!
It has been a while since I last posted.πŸ˜€
I have been really busy in the past few weeks helping and developing content for our next set of online modules. Really excited to see them launching in April!βœ…
πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
I came across new and exciting tools/languages that were new to me like Docker, mySQL and Bash scripting. πŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”ΉπŸ”Ή
Although the learning curve had to be quick, I'd say the takeaway was definitely great!
Ready to kick off this weekπŸ”₯
