Full text of article...

I'm writing this trapped at home, snowed in on the mountain (I'm at 800 feet elevation). We've had some strangely cold weather in the Pacific Northwest in late February—I had up 19" at my place. Though my road eventually got plowed, my steep gravel driveway is still impassible. I guess that gives me more time to focus on getting this issue of xDev out—and to prepare for XDC London two months from now!

In This Issue

I ended up writing most of this issue, so I hope you don't mind that. (As always, I'm eager for fresh voices—I'm especially interested in writers who can cover Android, iOS, and other topics we may have neglected.)

This time I explore my love of Legos and Xojo with a retro project that got me thinking a lot about programming. I also created a Wordle solver, and made an app to fix an annoyance with how Xojo gets installed.

In an article not by me, Eugene Dakin finishes his steganography series showing how to read hidden text.

In our columns we cover Attributes, Windows 11 Arm on Apple Silicon, SQL's Group By command, XML, and more. Enjoy!
