Thanks for swinging by!

Hey, I'm Ken - a developer from Ontario, Canada. I'm primarily a Java developer, who has been getting more involved with Angular and React (& React Native). If you'd like to get a better idea of my employment history, please check out my Linked In profile.

Current Role

Senior Software Engineer @ Guidewire.

Personal Projects

I've generally always got a few projects on the go, these are the most notable things I'm attempting to keep up to date:

React Native Bluetooth Classic

Bluetooth classic/serial module for use with Android and IOS (External Accessory). Unfortuntely I haven't had the time I used to committed to this project, but I still do my best to:

• Assist with open issues
• Create/Accept pull requests from some wonderful contributers

Yahoo Fantasy Tools

Attempting to make my (and others) commissioners life a little easy with regards to:

• Custom draft/keeper settings
• Automated team management

kenjdavidson.github.com

Although I'm not the biggest blogger, I do try to document anything interesting that I've recently worked on (or resolved). I try not to duplicate topics that are already well documented around the web - there are far better authors than I spending far more time than I.

Stack Overflow

I've been attempting to get more involved on Stack (although I'm not sure how I feel about it in general). On top of being able to assist others with their issues, it's a great platform for continuing my own development journey with a lot of languages and frameworks.

Support

I know a bunch of companies are now using the Bluetooth Classic library, and I'm super stoked about it! Any bit of appreciation helps:

• Github Sponsor
• Paypal Donations

base16-scss's Issues

Refactor to remove --root{} and add more themes to distribution

I'm not a huge fan of the --root() default while starting to use this in other projects. I'd also like to be able to install this without the need for scss.

1. Refactor highlighter.scss to base16builder.scss
2. Remove the default --root{} settings
3. Modify the scheme files to include # symbol, just makes editing in an IDE that supports color pickers a little better. This kind of goes against the base16scheme definition, but we'll see.
4. Refactor to provide the following functionality:

• Themes are imported into their maps ($base16github, $base16material, etc)
• Theme maps are added to an array/map($base16schemes: $base16github, $base16material, etc)
• Created array/map is used to build css variables

.base16github { }
.base16material { }

which can be more widely used. The original --root() can still be set manually by a scss implementation.
