I have a reasonably complete implementation of dark mode in my open source application, Explorer++. It uses the standard Win32 controls and applies a variety of strategies to get something that looks more-or-less cohesive when dark mode is enabled. ThemeManager.cpp[0] contains the bulk of the functionality. It could be useful as a reference for how you might create a dark version of a standard Win32 control.

I'm looking to pick up some contract work, though I'm open to the possibility of full time. I have experience developing for Android, and I've also written desktop software for Windows.

Luckily, it's fairly easy to remove. Just right-click the toolbar, and uncheck "Show apps shortcut".

You can also bookmark chrome://apps/ and place it in any position.

You can also add it your StartHQ launcher! :)

SEEKING WORK - Melbourne, Australia or remote

I'm an Android developer looking for some extra work. Over the last year and a half, I've developed PixStack (http://recursify.com/pixstack), a photo editor for Android. It's involved plenty of work with the NDK and image processing algorithms.

Additionally, I created the open source file manager Explorer++ (http://explorerplusplus.com/) in 2005, and have been working on it since then.

If you have a project you think I could help out with, feel free to send me an email! My contact information is in my profile.

For me personally, it's simply that I love the process of building software and I get a lot of satisfaction from it. As long as it's a challenge, I'm not too worried about whether anyone uses it, or whether I make money.

Increasingly, I have found that it would be nice to earn some money back from side projects I work on, so that might play some role in how I go about choosing projects in the future.

SEEKING WORK - Melbourne, Australia or Remote

I'm an Australian based developer hoping to pick up some new projects. I created the open source file manager Explorer++ (http://explorerplusplus.com/). Over the last year, I've also been getting into Android development. I've released one app so far (see http://recursify.com/pixstack) and have a second app in development.

I'm comfortable with C/C++/Java, and I very much enjoy picking up new skills and working with new technologies.

If you have a project you think I could help out with, I'd love to hear about it! My contact info is in my profile.
