Joplin Bulletify

Joplin is note-taking software that I appreciate and use a lot. I use it to take all kinds of notes at home and work. I have one specific workflow where I copy/paste some lines of text into a Joplin note, and I need to make all the lines (that are not headers) into bulleted lines. The default bullet tool doesn’t work because it makes anything that is highlighted into bullets. So I created a custom Joplin plugin called “Joplin Bulletify”.

Map Your Luck

Just for fun, I thought it might be interesting to bring some of the ideas of the old game show “Press your Luck” into an interactive web map.

Filter Tiled Layers

One of the core ideas in mapping is the difference between vector and raster layers. For vector layers, the actual geometry data is stored and passed around - for example a point might store the latitude and longitude. For tiled raster layers, the data is stored as images on the server, and those images are displayed as the layer.

In the past, the visualization of tiled raster layers could not be filtered based on geometry. Using layer blending in recent versions of the ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript, this is now possible.
