It is interesting to me that you programmed this in Python, as I have been interested in learning Python for some time now. I haven’t been very disciplined in making that happen. How long have you been using Python, and is it something you also do for your job?
Hi Mike,
My job is IT Support in a call centre, I used to be a network admin, and programming was part of it.
I’d toyed with Python before but never really bothered too much, when I had the idea for Sitquietly, it gave me the chance to learn it. Python really is a pleasure to use, and being used so strongly in Ubuntu made the choice even easier.
I think you really need a project in order to learn a programming language. I’ve learned more through the process of writing this app than I have from just playing with code fragments.
Now I want to get it submitted to Ubuntu Universe, which will be a whole new adventure!
Thanks Richard, this is definitely better then the alarm on my phone
Good luck on getting sitquietly in universe!
