Day 4: Quill note UI improvements #100DaysOfIndieWeb

Knocked out a couple of minor UI improvements to Quill this morning. Previously, the reply context field would show the whole note, so super long notes or blog posts would take over the whole screen. (Issue 62)

Day 4. This one only took and hour. Not really sure what I was going for here either. I'm not super happy with the little string trills, but I think with another hour or so I could tweak them to sound better. I actually started reading the manual for the East/West orchestra samples and there's a loooot of flexibility they give you with controlling the finger position, bowing direction, where the bow comes down on the strings, etc. I'll get a chance to play with those more later. But for now, happy to have today's song done before 9am! #100daysofmusic #100daysproject #the100dayproject

Day 3. Today's theme is "breaking news intro song", and also "Aaron attempts to spend less than 5 hours on this today unlike yesterday". I think I accomplished both! #100daysofmusic #100daysproject #the100dayproject

Your site will first have to support syndication targets (I can't remember the current state of Known's Micropub endpoint), and then when you sign in to OwnYourGram.com, the dashboard will show you the interface in my previous screenshot.

hm I thought Woodwind knew how to play videos? If not, I'm not sure how much I can do. I assume the video thumbnail shows up at least?

Day 2! This took way longer than I anticipated, and surprisingly not because of the video.

I started working on it at a coffee shop in NW with the instruments that come with Logic Pro. I got the initial structure of the song done, except for figuring out how it would end, and then decided to got home to finish it.

On the 35 minute bike ride home, I kept going over it in my head and figure out how to end it, and also decided to throw in the little synth arpeggios for the second half. Back at home, I switched most of the instruments over to the East/West instruments which sound way better and are much more expressive.

I didn't really know what to expect going into this today, but I'm pretty happy with it!
