In this week’s installment, Bart explains how to create two simple Bootstrap components, the Jumbotron and badges.

Freemium Archisketch Helped Me Rearrange the Room of Crap

As I’ve mentioned a few times, Steve and I are having our bathrooms gutted and remodeled. It’s a pretty stressful thing to live with.

CCATP #560 – Robb Dunewood on Android Sideloading for Fortnite

This Chit Chat Across the Pond occurred spontaneously without planning.

Raspberry Pi as a Web Server by Ed Tobias

This review was written and recorded by NosillaCastaway and personal friend of Steve and mine, Ed Tobias. We met him for coffee this week and he showed off his website www.edtobias.com, which was awesome, but how he built it was even cooler! I want to describe how I used a Raspberry pi as my web […]
