and it kind of took off organically from there. I just released the post below post this morning as kind of a retrospective look at the mistakes I made in the initial design if you're interested:
Yeah! This is a great tool and it's been around for a while. Nice little puzzles and good to have some kind of visual representation. But Devlands can do so much more than visualize the commit graph: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF7FnK1Gml8
Kinda! But really only in the sense that they're both "games" related to Git.
Devlands can do so much more (it's can simulate, run, and visualize any command or scenario that can happen in Git within the context of any local repo) and in a much more intuitive way.
Hey there! Never heard of Luanti, but the reasons I chose to make this in Pygame using this particular open-source voxel engine implementation are outlined in the post :D
Yes totally agree. Curious if you think visual or gamified tools might have been useful to get an initial grasp on the types of concepts you mentioned? And if so where they might fit in?
Hard agree. I love this mindset! If you put a tool in your toolbag you should know how to use it.
Git is definitely abstract and hard to get the hang of but totally worth it - pays dividends in terms of the options it puts at your disposal. And the stimulating nature of learning how it works so that you can think for yourself to figure out a solution, instead of just memorizing 3 commands and running to AI for help when you get a little stuck.
Version control is one of our main tools for interacting with other developers. Having a rich understanding of your version control software often helps to find solutions and workarounds for problems which would otherwise result in needless conflict.
