Yet another wandering programmer

Welcome to the home page of Chris Xiong, a Chinese programmer.

You will find my works, collections and pieces of thoughts here.

Have fun exploring!

Projects

Here's a list of projects maintained by me. For projects with license files, please refer to them for licensing details. Other projects, especially the old inactive ones, are provided "as-is", licensed under the terms of the Expat (MIT) license and come with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. Use them at your own risk.

Active Projects

Bullet Lab Remix [details] [short desc.]
A danmaku-like game. Inspired by a flash game called "Bullet Lab", this project has departured so far from it that it has became a STG without the 'shooting' part.
QMidiPlayer [details] [short desc.]
A feature-rich cross-platform MIDI player loosely based on vanBasco's Karaoke Player and QSynth. It has a comprehensive plugin interface to provide extra functionalities.
SMELT [details] [short desc.]
SMELT is a wrapper class for hardware-accelerated graphics rendering, input handling and optionally, audio outputting. SMELT is extensively used in some of my projects.
lightsd [details] [short desc.]
Auto brightness for Linux, without requiring a desktop environment or systemd.
Touhou BGM Remix [details] [short desc.]
The only project that has nothing to do with programming here. These packages provide remixed BGM in a more modern style for legacy Touhou Project releases. It may sound worse or better. You decide.

Contributed Projects

I've made contributions to these projects, more or less.

BLumia OJ [details] [short desc.]
A HUSTOJ compatible Online Judge system.
Pineapple Synth [details] [short desc.]
A software synthesizer developed by BLumia. I helped with some optimizations and bug fixes.
thplayer [details] [short desc.]
A replacement for my "thplayer.cpp" with GUI, written by BLumia. It has my reinvented wheel inside.
SDUOJ [short desc.]
The Online Judge used by Shandong University, Located here. It does have a github repo, but we have been modifying the production directly for so long that it is very outdated. Yes we use ssh and vim to modify the prod. And thanks to the stupid university I am in, it is impossible to access out of the campus.

Pending Projects

Online Judge
vjtester v2
FluidR3 GM2+Extension
QSPS Sound Set
SMELT4js(?)

Archived Antique Projects

Some of these projects are permanently lost in a disaster.

Ballance Remix (2011-2012) [details] [short desc.]
Old project attempting to recreate the game Ballance from Cyparade. It uses the same engine but without custom extensions to the engine. Playable, but in no way resemble the original game.
Chris' Timidity Player (2012) [archive] [short desc.]
Simple timidity frontend written in FreePascal. BLumia created a more feature-rich fork called BLumia's Timidity Shell.
Simple Tester for OI (2012) [archive] [short desc.]
Local judger for OI problems. Doesn't really have any advanced features.
the ~~Ultimate~~ Data Visualiser (2015) [short desc.]

A stupid game made with Virtools. A new version using HTML5 is available.
Compiz 0.9.7.99 (2012-2016) [archive] [short desc.]
