Just moments ago, Football Manager 26, a labour of love for two rollercoaster years, fully launched on Steam. I'm very proud of both my colleagues and my own work on the game. It will continue to be improved upon in the months to come, too. (1/2)

Even if AI does take over the industry (it won’t), learning to program property will give you an immense advantage when it comes to understanding what AI produces and how to fix bugs and maintain projects
We've had a couple of people ask whether JavaScript for Everyone is even worth doing, now that generative AI is available.

We've got the perfect answer to that.

When you have a great blog post idea which will take time to compile with code examples…

But you also have a day job and adult responsibilities

At a loose end this weekend… so instead of fixing my own bugs, I thought I’d fix yours 😂

Send me your frontend headaches (HTML/CSS/JS). DMs are open. Bonus points if you share a CodePen link - I’ll endeavour to pick a few to untangle in short YouTube vids
