Tonight, I'm introducing a new Calckey Plugin (my first release)!
The Highlighter Plugin will take a specific word or short phrase and highlight it throughout your timelines. You can customize the colors and turn a sparkle effect off or on.
Dear Calckey community, here's my first Plugin I'm introducing this week. You've already seen me talk about it. Try it out for yourself!

One thing I'm not sure about is where to store these plugins for public use. They are pretty long to add to a note. Maybe a Calckey page? Most likely they will end up in a git repo, but that's not very user friendly.
Calckey Plugins are an overlooked component of the platform. Mostly because documentation is scarce about them. No more! Here's my first post in a series on plugins, introducing the concept and providing a guide to ensure users can make informed decisions about installing plugins they find in the community....

So I got a code idea stuck in my head and couldn't let it go. I wanted to learn how to create a #Calckey client side plugin using #AiScript. I didn't know what I was getting myself into. 😅 But I did it! Will write up a blog entry soon and share the code.
The plugin highlights and sparkles a specific phrase you identify within all posts, making it easier to identify when a specific topic is being discussed within your timeline.
My #CalckeyPlugin is working! Figured out a few more things
#TIL that Calckey utilizes #AiScript version 0.11.1, which helped guide me to some issues I was having with syntax.
I figured out how to add debug lines (console.log) and have them appear in the Developer's Console, which helped debug immensely.
Going to document all my findings, create my first Codeberg repo, and release it soon - I do have a day job and a need for sleep, so it may be a few days. Bear with me. 😅
Didn't get quite as far as I wanted with a #Calckey#AiScript plugin tonight, but I'm close! This plugin will intake a phrase, then set a background and sparkle effect on the phrase in posts where it is found.
I'm intrigued with #Calckey and #AiScript and have been collecting some information I've found about it around here and there. I have a very muddy idea of the history - can someone help out here?
I see ways to grab data from the Calckey API and use it in AiScript...it's cool...all kinds of interesting things to dream about with that.
But - IS there anyway to utilize it right now? I looked in pages but that doesn't seem to work for me or I'm doing it wrong. Seems like it's the programming language for plugins, too.
My guesses at AiScript history
Misskey had AiScript
Calckey forked from Misskey
Misskey seems to be moving AiScript from Pages to an area called "Misskey Play".
Maybe there is some security concerns or the language isn't well supported now...
What's the future of AiScript for #Calckey? It's so fun to tinker with this stuff.
