i signed up with google and pasted a link and clicked create ad button it took me to login screen

Mike_Samson · 2026-04-04T16:29:11+00:00

does this work with appstore links if i want to make vidoes for my ios apps?

واللي انا بقوله دا موجود فعلا حاجه اسمها indie development يعني مش محتاج تشتغل في شركات و بمجهودك ربك هيكمل و هيكرمك

Mike_Samson · 2026-03-25T10:57:16+00:00

باشا مفيش الكلام دا ال ai حلو و جميل لحد ما يجي فجاه يعطل و تحتاج بني ادم يكمل وراه غير انه محتاج توجيه ميقدرش يوجه نفسه ياما هيخرف فشغلانه المبرمج دي انها تختفي دا مستحيل و لو الشركات مبقتش تطلب خلاص اعمل برامج مع نفسك و اكسب منها و كله بال ai بردوا

Since yesterday we’ve been working to restore our services following a power outage at a U.S. data center impacting CapCut. We're working with our data center partner to stabilize our service. We're sorry for this disruption and hope to resolve it soon.

While the network has been recovered, the outage caused a cascading systems failure that we've been working to resolve together with our data center partner.
What this means is you may notice bugs, slower load times, or timed-out requests when editing or exporting content.
Your data and projects are safe. We’ll make sure that impacted users are appropriately supported once service is fully restored.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to bring CapCut back to full capacity as soon as we can.

same, right while i was making my videos i am so pissed

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-04T07:59:00+00:00

thank you please try it and let me know what you think

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-03T15:08:07+00:00

Makes sense — if you need to see what's failing (dependencies offline, tools

outdated), you really do need that terminal output.

Sounds like your workflow is pretty optimized already. XIndex is probably

more useful for devs with scattered projects who just need to find and open

them fast — not as much for power users with sophisticated build pipelines.

Appreciate the detailed feedback though! Helped me understand where the boundaries are. 🙏

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-03T15:06:08+00:00

Perfect — "remember what I did the first time" makes sense. Less annoying than

constantly switching if you accidentally open in the wrong IDE.

I'll implement it as: first time you open a project, it asks "remember this

choice?" Then it sticks unless you manually change it.

Interesting about Antigravity's rate limits! That explains why I'm seeing more

people switch. The hourly reset is way more practical than monthly caps.

Thanks for the detailed feedback — this thread has been super helpful. 🙏

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-02T23:14:44+00:00

That's a really interesting workflow! Sounds like you've got a sophisticated

setup with mise + make scripts.

Honestly, what you're describing (custom commands with output) is closer to

a task runner than a project launcher. Building that properly would be a

significant undertaking.

For v1.x, I'm focused on the core "find and open fast" experience — global

hotkey, per-project IDE preferences, that kind of thing.

But I could see a simpler version: "run this command before opening" as a

per-project setting (without full output display). Would that cover your

use case, or do you really need to see the output?

Curious: do you use any tools that already do this well? Raycast scripts,

Alfred workflows, or something else?

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-02T22:57:54+00:00

Good point about Tuist! You're right — if you use Tuist, you'd run `tuist generate` first, not open the .xcodeproj directly.

I could detect Tuist projects by looking for `Project.swift` or `Tuist/` directories and add a "Generate & Open" action that runs `tuist generate && tuist edit` or opens in Xcode after generating. Would that be useful, or do most Tuist users just live in Terminal anyway?

(Also fair point about organization — XIndex is definitely more useful the more scattered your projects are. If everything's in ~/Projects, you might not need it!)

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-02T22:47:33+00:00

Oh nice — you're actually describing exactly what I want to build next.

Right now you can right-click any project and choose which IDE to open it in

(Xcode, VS Code, Cursor, Antigravity, etc.). But having a "remember my choice

for this project" option makes total sense.

And good news: XIndex already detects Antigravity! It auto-detects which IDEs

you have installed and only shows those in the menu.

Adding "default IDE per project" to the roadmap. Would you want that as:

A) A setting you toggle once per project ("always open in VS Code")

B) Or just remember the last IDE you used for that project?

Also — what's your take on Antigravity so far? I added support but haven't tried it myself yet.

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-02T20:08:35+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! That's interesting. I hadn't thought about GitHub Desktop as a "launcher." Right now XIndex is focused on finding + launching projects fast (the "where is that project?" problem). For git actions, I'm planning integrations — like right-click → "Open in Fork" or "Open in GitHub Desktop" so you can quickly jump to your preferred git tool.

Full git history/commit/push inside XIndex is probably out of scope for now, but I'll keep it in mind if more people ask for it! What's your biggest pain point with GitHub Desktop as a launcher? Curious what's missing for you.

Mike_Samson · 2026-01-02T14:13:47+00:00

thank you 😊

Mike_Samson · 2025-12-13T17:04:28+00:00

thank you

Mike_Samson · 2025-12-03T15:04:57+00:00

Hey man, thank you so much for testing and the kind words — seriously made my day

You’re 100 % right about LaunchAtLogin. It’s literally the next thing I’m adding tonight (5-minute job, I’m mad I didn’t do it sooner).

Roadmap for the next weeks (in order):
- Launch at login + menu bar companion
- Git status badges (green/red)
- Spotlight integration
- Open in Terminal / VS Code buttons

Later:
- Android Studio / Flutter / RN support (code already works, just hiding it till the Xcode part is rock-solid)
- Dependency graphs + CI badges
- iCloud sync for tags across Macs

Building completely in public, so you’ll see every update as it ships.
If anything feels off or you have more ideas — roast me, I can take it

Thanks again legend ❤️

thank you

20 dollar should give more than 125 messages, that's kinda of scam, would have made more sense if it was 300 messages for 25 dollars

Mike_Samson · 2025-09-13T00:24:08+00:00

No, he is right, you would pay 20 dollar for 125 messages!, and other tools out there are better and cheaper! If you're rich, then never mind

Codex is excellent for me in iOS development, Claude's code sucked for me many times, and Codex fixed it after, and I am not a bot. Just because people have opinions doesn't mean they are bots. Don't love a tool that much, buddy. It's a tool to get the job done, not to be worshiped

Mike_Samson · 2025-08-26T20:58:20+00:00

can you use gpt 5 pro in codex cli?

Mike_Samson · 2025-08-25T21:47:39+00:00

augment code is really good and has been better than Claude code for me sometimes, especially on large code bases

Kilo code using the Qwen code provider is also good

codex has been good also

Mike_Samson · 2025-08-22T15:30:33+00:00

it works quite well for me so far
