New Year's Resolutions

Hey everybody. It's a new year. Happy New Year!

Gamedev Blogging

Last year I have fallen behind on posting gamedev stuff. It's mostly because there is no good way to format code listings in the new editor. So this year, I am not even going to try eith gamedev tutorials on tumblr. I might post them elsewhere and just link them. I have already taken a look at Cohost, but It doesn't have the features I need. Wouldn't it be cook if you could post pico-8 carts on cohost? Or source code listings? Or LaTeX? I might as well write the HTML by hand and host it somewhere. But that won't be the focus of this blog in 2024.

Instead I'm going to do more tumblr posting about game design, just less on the code side. It will be more on the screenshot side. First thing will be about my 2023 Game Of The Year. It will probably surprise you. I did not expect it to be this good. You can also expect something about some of my old prototypes. Over the years I have started and abandoned game prototypes after either concluding that the idea won't work and can't be made to work, or after learning what I needed to learn. What did I learn? Wait and find out!

Computer Litaracy

I'll also attempt to write more about general computing and "computer literacy" topics. I have two particular "series" or "categories" in mind already. Almost Good: Technologies that sound great when you hear abut them, but that don't work as well as you might think when you try them out. Harmful Assumptions About Computing: Non-technical people often have surprising ideas about how computers work. As a technically inclined person, you don't even realise how far these unspoken assumptions about computers can reach.

Usability of computers and software seems to have gotten worse rather than better in many aspects, while computers have become entrenched in every workplace, our private lives, and in our interactions with corporations and government services. Computer literacy has also become worse in certain ways, and I think I know some reasons why.

There will also be some posts about forum moderation and community management. It's rather basic and common-sense stuff, but I want to spell it out.

Actual Game Development

I am going to release a puzzle game in 2024. You will be able to buy it for money. You can hold me to it. This is my biggest New Year's Resolution.

I will continue to work on two games of mine. One will be the game I just mentioned. The other is Wyst. I put the project on ice because I was running out of inspiration for a while, but I think I am sufficiently inspired now. I will pick it up again and add two more worlds to the game, and get it into a "complete" state. I'll also have to do a whole lot of playtesting. This may be the last time I touch Unity3d.

I will try out two new engines and write one or two proof-of-concept games in each of them, maybe something really simple like "Flappy Bird", and one game jam "warm-up" thing, with the scope of a Ludum Dare compo game. Maybe that means I'll write Tetris or Pong multiple times. I probably won't put the "Pong in Godot" on itch.io page next to a "Pong in Raylib" and "Pong in Bevy", but I'll just put the code on my GitHub. The goal is to have more options for a game jam, so I can decide to use Godot if it is a better fit for the jam topic.

In the past, I have always reached for PyGame by default, because Python is the language that has flask and Django and sqlalchemy and numpy and pyTorch, and because I mostly want to make games in 2D. I want to get out of my comfort zone. In addition to the general-purpose game engines, I will try to develop something in bitsy, AGS, twine, pico-8 or Ren'Py. I want to force myself to try a different genre this way. Maybe I'll make an archaeologist dating simulator.

All in all, this means I will so significant work on two existing projects, revisit some old failed prototypes to do a postmortem, I'll write at least six new prototypes, and two new jam games, plus some genre/narrative experiments. That's a lot already. So here's an anti-resolution: I won't even try to develop any of my new prototypes into full releases. I will only work on existing projects from 2023 or before if I develop anything into playable demo versions or full games. I won't get sidetracked by the next Ludum Dare game, I promise. After the jam is over, I'll put down the project, at least until 2025.

The journey to mastering full-stack development often begins with choosing the right combination of technologies. For many developers, Python, Vue.js, and PostgreSQL form a powerful and versatile stack. This trio provides a robust backend, a dynamic front end, and a reliable database. Whether you’re a budding developer enrolled in an FSD Python course or a seasoned programmer exploring new frameworks, this guide will provide the foundational steps to set up a full-stack project. 

Why Choose Python, Vue.js, and PostgreSQL?

Python: Known for its simplicity and versatility, Python is a favorite for backend development. Frameworks like Flask and Django make it easy to build scalable APIs and web applications. 

Vue.js: Vue.js is a progressive JavaScript framework for building user interfaces. Its simplicity, flexibility, and reactive components make it ideal for crafting modern, dynamic frontends. 

PostgreSQL: As one of the most advanced open-source relational database systems, PostgreSQL is renowned for its scalability, reliability, and extensive feature set. 

Step 1: Plan Your Project Structure 

In a standard full-stack project using Python, Vue.js, and PostgreSQL, the project structure is typically organized into several main directories. The backend directory contains the Python-based backend code, which could use frameworks like Django or Flask. The frontend directory holds the Vue.js frontend code and is responsible for the user interface. The database directory includes scripts and configuration files for setting up and managing the PostgreSQL database. The environment directory stores configuration files, such as environment variables and deployment settings. Finally, the docs directory is dedicated to documentation and notes related to the project. This structure ensures clarity and separation of concerns, making the project easier to manage and scale. 

Step 2: Set Up the Backend with Python 

Choose a Python Framework:  

Flask: Lightweight and flexible for simple APIs. 

Django: A full-fledged web framework with built-in features for authentication, ORM, and more. 

Create the Virtual Environment:  

Using virtual environments ensures project dependencies remain isolated, a key concept covered in any Python FSD curriculum. 

Install Necessary Packages:  

For Flask: Flask, Flask-Cors, and SQLAlchemy. 

For Django, use core Django packages and DRF (Django Rest Framework) for API handling. 

API Design:  

Develop RESTful endpoints to handle CRUD operations. 

Implement authentication mechanisms like JWT for user management. 

Step 3: Develop the Frontend with Vue.js 

Set Up the Vue.js Environment:  

Use Vue CLI to scaffold your application. This creates a starter project with essential configurations. 

Design Components:  

Break down your application into modular components (e.g., header, footer, forms). 

Use Vue’s data-binding and state management to handle user interactions. 

API Integration:  

Axios or Fetch can be used to connect the Vue.js frontend with your Python backend. 

Styling:  

Choose between frameworks like Vuetify, Tailwind CSS, or Bootstrap to style your application. 

Step 4: Configure the PostgreSQL Database 

Install PostgreSQL:  

Ensure PostgreSQL is installed and running on your system. Tools like pgAdmin simplify database management. 

Set Up the Database:  

Define your schema and relationships. Django’s ORM or Flask’s SQLAlchemy can streamline this process. 

Database Connection:  

Configure your backend to connect to PostgreSQL using libraries like psycopg2. 

Migrations:  

Use migration tools provided by your framework (e.g., Django’s migrate command) to keep your database schema synchronized. 

Step 5: Link the Frontend and Backend 

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS):  

Enable CORS in your backend to allow API requests from your frontend. 

Environment Variables:  

Use .env files to securely manage API keys, database credentials, and other sensitive information. 

Serve the Frontend:  

Deploy your Vue.js application and configure the backend to serve the frontend (or use a separate web server). 

Step 6: Deployment 

Containerization:  

Use Docker to containerize your application for consistent deployment across environments. 

Hosting Platforms:  

For the backend, consider platforms like Heroku, AWS, or Azure. 

For the front end, platforms like Vercel or Netlify are excellent choices. 

Database Hosting:  

Host PostgreSQL on cloud platforms like AWS RDS or DigitalOcean for better scalability. 

Conclusion

Setting up a full-stack project with Python, Vue.js, and PostgreSQL may seem complex initially, but with proper guidance and practice, it becomes a manageable and rewarding process. Whether you’re enrolled in a Python Full Stack Development Course or self-learning, this stack equips you with the tools to build modern, scalable web applications. 

Each step in this guide provides a foundation for exploring and implementing advanced features like authentication, real-time updates, or cloud deployment. With persistence and curiosity, you’ll be well on your way to mastering full-stack development.

FastAPI × PostgreSQL：モデルなしで疎通確認する方法

今回は、FastAPI + SQLAlchemy + PostgreSQL 環境で、 ORMモデルを定義せずにDBへの接続確認を行う方法を紹介します。 自分のプロジェクト「Wonderpasnavi」の開発中に、実際に遭遇したエラーや学びも含めてまとめました。

環境構成

Python 3.11

FastAPI

SQLAlchemy

PostgreSQL（外部VPS）

Poetry（仮想環境管理）

Docker / docker compose

.env の設定

環境変数でDB接続URLを管理します。

DATABASE_URL=postgresql+psycopg2://wpnuser:wpnuser@153.126.138.11:5432/wonderpasnavi

接続確認用スクリプト test_db.py

モデルを定義せず、生のSQLを直接実行して接続確認します。

from sqlalchemy import text from db import db_engine def test_connection():     try:         with db_engine.connect() as conn:             result = conn.execute(text("SELECT max(at_t) FROM trk_waitingtime;"))             print("接続成功！結果:", result.scalar())     except Exception as e:         print("接続エラー:", e) if __name__ == "__main__":     test_connection()

【注意】poetry環境下では直接 python test_db.py を実行してはダメ

Poetry はプロジェクトごとに 独自の仮想環境 を作成します。 そのため、以下のように直接実行してもライブラリが見つからずエラーになります：

python test_db.py ← ❌ sqlalchemy が import できない

正しい実行方法は以下：

poetry run python test_db.py

これにより poetry の仮想環境内で実行され、SQLAlchemy などのライブラリも正しく読み込まれます。

【注意】pydantic v2 での変更点：BaseSettings の移動

pydantic v2 以降、環境変数読み込みに使用していた BaseSettings は、pydantic-settings パッケージ に分離されました。

そのため、次のようなエラーが発生します：

pydantic.errors.PydanticImportError: `BaseSettings` has been moved to the `pydantic-settings` package.

対処法

1. 新パッケージを追加

poetry add pydantic-settings

2. インポート文を修正

from pydantic_settings import BaseSettings

おわりに

モデルを定義��る前でも、こうした方法でDB疎通を確認できます。 FastAPIやSQLAlchemyの挙動を理解するのにとても良いステップです。 今後はORMモデルの定義やマイグレーションツール（Alembic）との連携も試して、より堅牢な構成にしていく予定です。

Back-End Development: A Complete Guide for Beginners in 2025

When you visit a website, everything you see—the layout, colors, text, and buttons—is the front end. But what happens when you log in, fill out a form, or make a payment? That’s where the back-end development magic begins.

In this complete guide, we’ll explore what back-end development is, why it’s crucial for the web, what technologies and skills you need, and how you can build a thriving career in this dynamic field. Whether you're a curious beginner or someone switching careers, this article has everything you need to know.

🚀 What is Back-End Development?

Back-end development refers to the server-side part of web development. It's everything that happens behind the scenes to make a website or app function properly—like servers, databases, application logic, and APIs.

Back-end development is all about how a website works rather than how it looks.

For example:

When you submit a login form, the back end checks your credentials in the database.

When you place an order online, the back end processes the order and stores the transaction.

⚙️ How Does Back-End Development Work?

The back end interacts with three key components:

Server – The machine that handles requests.

Database – Where data like user info and product listings are stored.

Application – The logic that ties it all together.

Here’s a simplified flow:

User clicks a button (front-end)

Front-end sends a request to the server

Back-end processes the request

Data is fetched from or saved to the database

Server sends a response back to the front-end

🧰 Core Technologies in Back-End Development

To become a back-end developer, you’ll need to learn these foundational tools and languages:

1. Programming Languages

How Python Supports React JS Development: A Perfect Backend Companion

Introduction

While React JS dominates the frontend world with its dynamic user interfaces, it often needs a strong, reliable backend to function smoothly. That’s where Python shines.

Even though React and Python work in separate layers of the development process, they complement each other beautifully, making Python a powerful ally in any React project.

In this article, we’ll explore how Python fits into a React-driven project, why it’s useful, and what makes it a preferred backend choice for developers building React applications.

🚀 Why Use Python with React JS?

React JS is all about building interactive UI components. But to make those UIs dynamic — like fetching data, saving user input, or processing forms — you need a backend. Python helps you build that backend efficiently.

Here’s why developers choose Python behind React:

🧩 Clean Syntax & Easy Integration

⚙️ Powerful Web Frameworks (Django, Flask)

🔐 Built-in security and scalable architecture

📊 Ideal for Data-driven applications and AI-powered features

🔧 Key Functionalities Python Offers to React-Based Projects

Even though Python isn’t directly used inside React code, it plays a major role in the backend processes that React interfaces with. Here's what Python enables:

1. REST API Development

React apps often fetch or send data using APIs. Python, using Django REST Framework or Flask, helps create clean and fast APIs to serve JSON data to React.

2. User Authentication & Authorization

Login pages and secure dashboards built with React rely on backend services to verify user data. Python handles token-based authentication (JWT), session management, and role-based access securely.

3. Database Management

React doesn't interact with databases directly. Python handles all CRUD operations through ORM layers like Django ORM or SQLAlchemy.

4. Business Logic & Data Processing

Whether it’s processing form data or applying advanced logic, Python takes care of the backend work, sending results back to the React frontend.

5. AI/ML Features in Web Apps

Want to add features like chatbot support, recommendation engines, or data prediction in a React app? Python is perfect for this thanks to libraries like TensorFlow, scikit-learn, and Pandas.

🔗 How React and Python Communicate

React and Python communicate using HTTP protocols:

React calls backend endpoints using fetch() or axios.

Python responds via APIs using Django or Flask.

JSON is used to pass data back and forth.

This clean separation ensures that the frontend and backend can evolve independently but still work seamlessly.

🎯 Benefits of Using Python with React

✅ Scalable and secure backend ✅ Easy to maintain code ✅ Massive library support in Python ✅ Best for data-heavy or AI-based React apps ✅ Time-efficient development with reusable code

🏁 Conclusion

Even if you’re focusing only on mastering React JS, understanding how Python supports and empowers React applications gives you an edge as a developer. Python brings structure, logic, and power to the backend, while React delivers an exceptional frontend experience.

So, if you're building a React app and wondering what backend to pair it with, Python is an excellent, developer-friendly choice.

Advanced Database Management in Full Stack Development 

Introduction 

A Full Stack Development project's foundation is effective database management. Data transactions and application performance are guaranteed by the capacity to build, optimize, and scale databases. Proficiency with SQL and NoSQL databases, indexing, query optimization, and high availability replication are essential for modern applications. To create scalable systems, developers also need to concentrate on cloud integration, backup plans, and database security. In order to guarantee maximum performance and dependability in full stack applications, this paper examines sophisticated database management strategies. 

Choosing the Right Database: SQL vs. NoSQL 

Choosing the right database is essential for the scalability of the program. Strong data consistency, defined schema, and ACID compliance are features of SQL databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Microsoft SQL Server). Applications needing relational data storage, financial transactions, and sophisticated searches are best suited for them. NoSQL databases, such as MongoDB, Cassandra, and Firebase, offer distributed architecture, high scalability, and customizable schemas. Large-scale, unstructured data processing, such as real-time analytics and Internet of Things applications, is best handled by these. Database efficiency is increased by combining NoSQL for dynamic content and SQL for structured data. 

Optimizing Query Performance and Scaling 

Applications that have poorly optimized queries operate slowly. Data retrieval is accelerated by the use of indexing, query caching, and denormalization. In high-traffic applications, partitioning huge tables improves read/write performance. Performance is enhanced via read and write replicas, which disperse database loads. Sharding lowers latency by dividing big databases into smaller portions that are distributed across several servers. In full stack applications, database interaction is streamlined by using ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) technologies like SQLAlchemy, Hibernate, or Sequelize. 

Database Security and Backup Strategies 

In Full Stack Development, data availability and security must be guaranteed. Unauthorized access is avoided by putting role-based access control (RBAC) into practice. User information is protected by using hashing methods, SSL/TLS, and AES to encrypt important data. Data loss may be avoided by point-in-time recovery, disaster recovery plans, and routine database backups. AWS RDS, Google Cloud Firestore, and Azure Cosmos DB are examples of cloud-based databases that provide fault tolerance, replication, and automated backups to guarantee data dependability and integrity. 

Conclusion 

Building scalable, high-performance applications in Advanced Full Stack Development requires a solid understanding of database administration. System efficiency is increased by selecting between SQL and NoSQL databases, optimizing queries, and protecting data storage. A Full Stack Development Training curriculum gives developers hands-on experience while teaching them sophisticated database approaches. Database management internships provide professionals practical experience in handling data in the real world, preparing them for the workforce. A successful career in Full Stack Development is ensured by investing in database competence.

API Integration:  

Axios or Fetch can be used to connect the Vue.js frontend with your Python backend. 

Styling:  

Choose between frameworks like Vuetify, Tailwind CSS, or Bootstrap to style your application. 

Step 4: Configure the PostgreSQL Database 

Install PostgreSQL:  

Ensure PostgreSQL is installed and running on your system. Tools like pgAdmin simplify database management. 

Set Up the Database:  

Define your schema and relationships. Django’s ORM or Flask’s SQLAlchemy can streamline this process. 

Database Connection:  

Configure your backend to connect to PostgreSQL using libraries like psycopg2. 

Migrations:  

Use migration tools provided by your framework (e.g., Django’s migrate command) to keep your database schema synchronized. 

Step 5: Link the Frontend and Backend 

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS):  

Enable CORS in your backend to allow API requests from your frontend. 

Environment Variables:  

Use .env files to securely manage API keys, database credentials, and other sensitive information. 

Serve the Frontend:  

Deploy your Vue.js application and configure the backend to serve the frontend (or use a separate web server). 

Step 6: Deployment 

Containerization:  

Use Docker to containerize your application for consistent deployment across environments. 

Hosting Platforms:  

For the backend, consider platforms like Heroku, AWS, or Azure. 

For the front end, platforms like Vercel or Netlify are excellent choices. 

Database Hosting:
