RetroPi

This was a fun project to get some old school retro apps installed and running on RetroPi, it was pretty easy to setup and within no time I was playing Super Mario with my kids on a controller.

This is the basic overview of how I got it setup and started:

  • Download Balena Etcher
  • Download RetroPi
  • Install onto Micro SD Card using Balena Etcher
  • Add Keyboard/SD/Power/HDMI
  • Enable SSH
  • Use Filezilla to copy games to folders

Phillips 66

I had a nice opportunity to present some offer internal IT work we were doing at SAP, with the oil giant, Phillips 66. It was a great conversation sharing what, where and how we are deploying SAP BTP, apps and mobile solutions to help our company and its employees be successful. Here are a few slides and key take aways from the meeting.

Mac App: SAP Note Viewer

I ported the SAP Note Viewer iOS app over to the Mac desktop to see how it would do and with close to 600 downloads, I would not call it much of a success. It was the first Mac app I have developed and gave me a nice understanding of the differences between developing for the desktop vs mobile in the Apple ecosystem.

Here is a screenshot of the app running on my desktop.
