Progress on my UWP file explorer! Here's some screenshots. I really enjoy the Acrylic material, and my favorite page is the "There's nothing here" page because it came out EXACTLY as I wanted it. More images in the comments!

Notepad Windows 10 Project Neon Acrylic Theme Concept (German)

I change my wallpaper way too often.

And I put way too much time in customizing my desktop.

99.999999% of the reason I like UWP is because of the Acrylic. It is a pain in the ASS to use otherwise.

Here's a small pixel art program I'm working on I guess.

So Microsoft removed the transparency Aero Glass effect going from Windows 7 to 10, to make 10 more "modern", even though 7 was pretty as fuck with that transparency.

Now they're bringing it back with their wanky "acrylic" blur?

Make up your mind Microsoft

I have said it before and I will say it again.

Acrylic is SUCH A GOOD EFFECT.

My boss assigned me to design our new house sign. It will be printed onto acrylic plastic. Thoughts?

I have already started the process of a side project by desiging the software, the architecture, the 3d model, ordered all the electronics of a pet 'smart' stable for my guinea pigs.

Which would automatically feed them and refill their water tanks silently but for me the point on playing around with dozens of sensors for like different water levels, water quality, hay, temperature, water quality (you get the point) ... Building a nice looking web interface or an App to control everything and get a live feed from different angles ( sounds a bit crazy altogether but it looked like a cool project )

I even started a instructable and had a github repo for sharing the source of the app/web interface and the whole micro service based server

I'm still at it and hopefully will start to build the ***ing wood and acrylic parts in the next month's but currently and for the last month's free time ist my archenemy

Keep you posted if you are interested 😀
