Pro Tip: Government Services Appointment

 Hi, I'm back!

Because of the pandemic, the government's services have begun implementing "booking system" for many, if not all, of their services. This is definitely a step-up in terms of their services - people will no longer cramp the office.

But, what if the queue is super long?

We tried to book for Afrael's birth registration in Selangor - the next available appointment at that time was in January. (Fyi, Afrael was born in September) that's a whole 5 months without certificate!

So, what's the pro tip?

Do it at cities with less people / the village! We did Afrael's at Pagoh (a 2-hour drive and they open on Sunday). And tadaaa, he's probably the few babies who managed to get his birth certificate before 2 months!

I decided to implement the same approach for my medical checkup. My city's health clinic's queue was until middle January. I decided to do the medical checkup at Putrajaya. I immediately got in the queue - awesome!

So yeah, if you have a super long queue at your place, just think of a place a little less crowded. I tried places in Selangor but the queue was about the same in other cities as well.

Return;

VS 2022 / .Net Core Error : Node.js is required to build and run this project. To continue, please install Node.js from https://nodejs.org/, and then restart your command prompt or IDE.

I just created a new .Net Core 3.1 project. I installed Node.JS (from Nuget Packages). I've also used the VS installer to install Node.JS. But when I run, I was still having the issue below error : Node.js is required to build and run this project. To continue, please install Node.js from https://nodejs.org/, and then restart your command prompt or IDE. I was running Visual Studio 2022. What solved it was the following: 1) I searched for node.exe and found it at the following folder: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Enterprise\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\NodeJs 2) Opened Windows Start Menu and typed "Edit the system environment variables" 3) Click on "Environment Variables" 4) At the next screen, look for "Path" under "System Variables". Double click it / click edit. 5) Add the nodejs path from (1). 6) Restart visual studio and taraa. Solution was from one of the answers in:  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59115525/node-j

VS Code / Flutter: Error "'flutter' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet..."

 I was trying to run a command: flutter pub add youtube_player_flutter But it was giving me the error: "'flutter' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet..." To fix this, we need to add it to the Environment Variables (just like what I did for node.js in the previous post!) 1) You should know where's your flutter's sdk at this point. Mine is at: C:\src\flutter\bin 2) Opened Windows Start Menu and typed "Edit the system environment variables" 3) Click on "Environment Variables" 4) At the User variables for User, click on Path. 5) Add the flutter sdk's path from (1). 6) Do the same for "System Variables". Double click on "Path" / click edit. 5) Add the flutter sdk's path from (1). 6) Restart visual studio code and then, all done!

MapBox Flutter Turn-by-turn Navigation - Not Updated / Not Working

 I have spent countless hours/days trying to fix the turn-by-turn navigation. I thought it was just me not understanding flutter and MapBox integration. Apparently, there was an issue in their SDK for turn-by-turn navigation. It has been fixed for Android native SDK but not for Flutter's. There may be a way to fix it. But I've decided to go native now. Bye Flutter. 😭 P.S. Share with me if you were able to make their turn-by-turn navigation a success!
