No I don't need to pick up a #BangleJS because simple because I want to fiddle with it

Bought myself a programmable smartwatch (https://banglejs.com/) hoping to get my brain working with some simple coding. Sadly still too ambitious for #LongCovid but at least on visiting my student son he has something to play with while I nap on his bed! (I got some tweaks to Smartwatch Apps out of it too. A win-win) #BangleJS
@pixelcode to the best of my knowledge there are currently no plans for a #BangleJS 3.
If you have a #bangleJS 2 watch, I'd be really grateful if you could test something for me. Try uploading my geminiclock app from here and let me know if the app icon in your watch menu appears as a number 11 (icon from another app as placed in the app-icon.js file) or, as it appears on my watch, the number 23 (icon in the app.png file): https://blogmywiki.github.io/BangleApps/?q=gemini

Date was clashing with wider hour digits like '08' so I tweaked it a bit... pretty pleased with this new face for the #BangleJS 2 hackable smart watch.
Ok, this one using the Büro Destruct version of the Gemini font, I might submit to the main #BangleJS app store:
#design #typography
Anyhoo, if you have a #bangleJS 2 watch, you can try out my new clock face here https://blogmywiki.github.io/BangleApps/?id=consoleremixclock
It's a minimalist design using the Büro Destruct Console Remix font, day of week and month dates should respect localisation and widgets are shown. Next I might add some colour or try an alternate design based on BD's Pebble watch faces.
Taken me *all evening* to work out why a #BangleJS app wouldn't build properly in the app store... https://forum.espruino.com/conversations/371350/#comment16328498
Quite pleased with this watch face now. Not sure it’s worth submitting to the #bangleJS App Store but I might put it in my own.

Hmm, I think my 'add leading zero' code needs a rethink. Here's a thing: I contributed my 68k Mac clock to the #BangleJS app store, someone developed it further, no doubt improving it, but THEY REMOVED LEADING ZEROES FROM SINGLE DIGIT HOURS and it looks bad. Not sure what the protocol is here. It was my project originally...

Possible that BD Console Remix was a bad font choice as the 1 and 4 have crazy descenders, meaning most of the time it looks too spaced out… #BangleJS

Work in progress. I'm not sure about the legibility but I will be making the number much bigger. #bangleJS
