Vex Scouting

Developer's Note

As a senior, this is my final year participating as a Student in Vex. However, I plan to remain involved and keep this project updated.

Well… things didn’t exactly go as planned. For reasons that are beyond me, I’m no longer part of my local Vex community, and I won’t be putting more effort into this project unless I happen to get really bored.

It’s a shame- I had big plans, including a complete rewrite in TypeScript that was almost done. But, apparently, life happens, and the “people” in my local Vex community- (you know who you are!!)- made… interesting choices.

If anyone actually finds this project useful and wants to see it continue, I might consider supporting it again. Otherwise, enjoy what’s here- it’s the product of someone who cared far more than the “people” I HELPED ever seemed to care about me.

You can still email me if you want- I’m always happy to help- or for more information as to what happened.

And seriously, if you liked VexThing, please take a moment to fill out this form.
