I’m still trying to get over the stress of graduating, dreaming (every night!) of having yet to do exams in order to graduate doesn’t help though. I’m working on my projects at a slower pace, fixing a few bugs here and there before the release of EnvyNG. I have designed a new system for URandR […]
Dear users of EnvyNG, if you want to help to translate EnvyNG (1.1.0) into your native language you can contribute by using Rosetta’s web interface. The Italian translation is complete.
