Holy shit you're back, please complete your stm series and do some practical stuff with it like motor control or something

That code you mentioned not having seen before on line 4 is an example of designated initializer lists (a C99 feature that doesn't exist in C++). They're very convenient, especially when you want to fill out a large struct. You only need to designate the fields you care about, and the rest will be zero initialized. You can use them in a nested fashion as well, initializing fields of a struct which is itself a field of a higher struct.

Thank you, Mitch, for this amazing video.

We really miss your videos, and I hope you could start making them again soon.

I use Emacs BTW :P

[andystevens]

Excellent video... clearly explained. Hope you would produce more such videos.

Great video! The only thing I'm wondering is how you can implement this on the microcontroller? Right now the page is served via mongoose right? Not by the controller. Or am I overseeing something 😅

[Pixelwaster]

Notepad++ Love the videos, keep making please.

[upgradetoanalog]

Was there ever a follow up to this video to show how the code needed to be changed to work with microcontrollers?

[matthewprater]

I use VS code for html/css/javascript stuff, Notepad++ for most other things

I use neovim as a text editor and terminal multiplxer

[manla]

I use Microsoft word for all my coding

An this is how a web server works under the hood

re: what editors?
* vim for everything single-file or one-off (terminal, not GUI; I do a *lot* of work from the terminal)
* VS Code for most larger projects
* Eclipse for Java projects

I wince every time you reach for the mouse to start your programs, instead of just e.g. typing ./mongoose.exe in the same terminal where you just ran make ;)
