Okay, so today I’m gonna walk you through my experience messing around with Craig Haynes’ stuff. You know, the usual coding adventure.
First off, I started by cloning his repo from that one place. Just a simple git clone, nothing fancy. Got the whole shebang on my local machine.
Then, I dove into the code. Spent a good hour just reading through it, trying to figure out what all the different parts did. It was a bit of a mess at first, but I slowly started to get a handle on things.
Next up, I tried to run some of the examples. This is where things got interesting. Turns out, a few of the dependencies were outdated. Had to do some digging and manually update those in my file. Classic.
After that, I hit a wall with some weird error messages. Spent way too long debugging, only to realize I had a typo in one of the config files. Always the simple things, right?
Finally got the examples running! Felt like a total win. Started tweaking some parameters and playing around with the code. Got some cool results, but also broke a few things along the way.
I even tried integrating some of his code into my own project. It was a bit of a hack, but I managed to get it working. Definitely learned a lot about how his code interacts with other systems.
Overall, it was a pretty fun experience. Craig Haynes has some solid stuff, even if it’s a bit rough around the edges. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into this kind of thing.
Here’s a quick recap of what I did:
- Cloned the repo.
- Read the code.
- Updated dependencies.
- Debugged errors.
- Ran examples.
- Tweaked parameters.
- Integrated into my project.
Definitely recommend giving it a shot yourself. Just be prepared to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty.
