Windows 11 themed Website Design - Make a Windows 11 themed Website - MrDevKnown

Summary

In this article you learnt how you can make a Windows 11 themed web design. You learnt about some basics of HTML and CSS.

Thanks for reading. Hope you liked the idea and project. Do comment down you opinions. Also, share this project with your friends and programmers.

This article will teach you how you can test your typing speed, but in programmer style, with Python. Check how fast you can type by making your own software to calculate the basic things needed to get the idea of your typing speed. We are going to use PyGame for making this software. You can also make this with Tkinter or other GUI. But PyGame is a bit useful for making these kind of GUIs, so I used it.

Download a suitable landscape background image you want for this app and rename that to "bg.jpg". Download a cartoon png from anywhere, or follow this link. Rename the character to "char.png".

Make a text file named typing.txt containing the collection of some sentences, e.g.,

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
Anyone who lives in Antarctica is their for a scientific research station.

Save all these files at one location on your device, inside the same directory (folder).

Install PyGame

pip install pygame

Type this command in your terminal: cmd, bash, etc.. and press enter (run).

Code

Import modules

 import pygame
 from pygame.locals import *
 import sys
 import time
 import random

Game class (contains all the functions for the game)

Summary

In this article you learnt about making an app to test your typing speed in Python with PyGame. You learnt about PyGame module.

Thanks for reading. Hope you liked the idea and project. Do comment down you opinions. Also, share this project with your friends and programmers.

Idea

This article will teach you how you can count the number of words in JavaScript. You will learn about making a logic in JavaScript. We will make this project in react.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of JavaScript (string operations), react JS basics.

Code

Logic of the program

HTML part in React:

    <div className="form-group container p-4">

                /* buttons */
           <button disabled={text.length === 0} onClick={clear} className="btn  btn-primary" data-bs-toggle="tooltip" data-bs-placement="top" title="Tooltip on top"><i className="far fa-trash-alt"></i></button>
           <button disabled={text.length === 0} onClick={copy} className="btn  btn-primary"><i className="far fa-copy"></i></button>
           <button disabled={text.length === 0} onClick={upper} className="btn  btn-primary"><i className="far fa-text-size"></i></button>
           <button disabled={text.length === 0} onClick={capitalize} className="btn  btn-primary"><i className="fas fa-font-case"></i></button>
           <button disabled={text.length === 0} onClick={remove_space} className="btn btn-primary"><i className="fas fa-line-height fa-rotate-270"></i></button>

                /* Textarea */
           <textarea className="thetext form-control mb-4" value={text} onChange={handleOnChange} id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="8"></textarea>
           <h4 className="mt-4">Text Count</h4>
           <div className="my-2">
           <p>{text.split(/\s+/).filter((element) => { return element.length !== 0 }).length} words and {text.split(' ').filter(s => s).join('').length} characters</p>
         
     </div >

Making a react component with this Logic

Using React UseState:

import React, { useState } from 'react'

export default function Form() {
    const clear = () => {
        let newtext = text.substr(0, -1);
        setText(newtext);
    }
    const handleOnChange = (event) => {
        setText(event.target.value);
    }
    const [text, setText] = useState("");
    return (
        <>
            <div className="form-group container p-4">

                {/* Textarea */}
                <textarea className="thetext form-control mb-4" value={text} onChange={handleOnChange} id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="8"></textarea>
                <h4 className="mt-4">Text Count</h4>
                <div className="my-2">
                    <p>{text.split(/\s+/).filter((element) => { return element.length !== 0 }).length} words and {text.split(' ').filter(s => s).join('').length} characters</p>
                </div>
            </div >
        </>
    )
}
