Feel free to suggest sections!

If you want to help writing the newsletter:

  • Grab one of the "🆓 free" sections by leaving a comment like "I'd like to work on {section_name_1} and {section_name_2}".
  • Mentions in brackets (like "🆓 free (@ozkriff ?)") are just an invitation to write the corresponding section if you want, but anyone is free to take it.
  • Write a short overview:
    • Use provided links as a starting point.
    • Try to maintain a consistent style with the rest of the newsletter and run markdownlint, please.
    • Insert line breaks (softbreak) at 80 chars, please.
    • Use third-person pronouns even if you write about your project updates.
    • DM me on Discord or Telegram if there're any questions.
  • Send a PR to the source branch (example: Newsletter 7: Rhea, Oxidator, Dwarfs, Univer, Cat #75)
    • Mention this issue in your PR's description to link it all together.

I'm hoping to release this newsletter on 2020.09.07, so a soft deadline for all section PRs is 2020.09.05.

Current structure/status (I'll try to keep this updated):

@icefoxen (#231):

https://rustgamedev.com/episodes Saw this and was surprised that it wasn't included in the newsletter already, then realized it was brand new. Haven't actually listened to it yet though, so maybe it's not good. XD Will listen to it and see how it is.

It might be better to wait to list Crankstart until the Playdate SDK is generally available. Right now it not usable by anyone who isn't in the closed developer program.

Could we also add Minigene inside of the Library & Tooling Updates section? https://git.jojolepro.com/minigene (updating the readme with more details soon)

Unfortunately shader-types is fundamentally broken, and I would advice everyone not to use it. 😢

@ozkriff I completed a game jam this past month and just posted a retrospective. If you don't mind, I'd love to write a short blurb in the Game Updates section. Figured I'd ask before sending in an unannounced PR!

@cwfitzgerald oh, ok, removed shader-types from the plan.

@rtsuk 👌 sure, removed Crankstart from the current newsletter - ping me when the SDK is released!

@Jojolepro @ecton great! Added Minigene and Chillscapes sections to the plan!

I wrote up a quick thing on RustGameDev Podcast, for the second episode. PR #234 Just added it in the "learning materials" section, but it's listed in the main issue as having its own section... where do we want to put it?

Hello, I was recommended to submit this snippet of code for inclusion in the newsletter by @workingjubilee
It's an example on how to use custom panic hooks and allocation error hooks to handle panics and OOM gracefully.
How to cleanly handle panics and OOM in a GUI application

@AlexApps99 sure! Added to the plan; feel free to send a PR.

@ozkriff on second thought, although the example seems to work, rust-lang/rust#51245 points out that alloc functions are annotated with #[rustc_allocator_nounwind], so it could potentially lead to bugs or undefined behavior.
It doesn't seem to affect Desktop platforms, but I would prefer not to recommend this until it is 100% safe.
