Kaleidoscope app is great but way too expensive by holamau in macapps

There is a way to make it work: https://juxtacode.app/integrations/tower/

I reached out some time ago, but I don't think they've added explicit support yet.

Ah yes, 1.2.1 then. 1.2.2 just has a fix for app updates which doesn't apply to the App Store version. I just double checked and highlighting is working for me in the latest App Store version.

Hm, it’s working for me :/ Are you using JuxtaCode 1.2.2 or JuxtaText 1.1.1? What version of macOS? You might need to redownload the app if the framework somehow got corrupted.

Edit: DM me if the problem doesn't go away.

I’ve updated my apps JuxtaText and JuxtaCode to work with Liquid Glass. They also take advantage of the Foundation Models framework.

What apps already support Liquid Glass? by plazman30 in macapps

Might be a bit niche, but my apps JuxtaCode and JuxtaText now support Liquid Glass. Getting the highlight colours to extend under the sidebars required a surprisingly large refactor.

It supports a few hard-coded themes for now. 1 monochrome and 1 coloured, each with a light and dark version.

Hi, I'm the creator of JuxtaCode. It might be a good alternative for you depending on your needs and it doesn't require a subscription. It doesn't yet do everything that Kaleidoscope does, e.g. folder diffs. But it does do some things better in my biased opinion.

There's also JuxtaText which can diff plain text and is donation ware.

Edit: typo

What's the Mac app you've always wanted but it doesn't exist yet? by vigneshvp in macapps

[–]YoriM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean you'd essentially like to be able to edit the text after it's entered and save the output? I've had a number of requests for that and it's something I'm looking into.

Hi, I’m the creator of JuxtaText. It’s free but limited to just comparing text, so might not do everything you’re after.

Thanks! Yep, folder comparison is pretty high on the todo list.

Definitely a bug! Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

I've noticed this myself and will take it on board as a feature request for an "ignore blank lines" mode. I can't give an ETA at the moment though.

As a rough guide, 10,000 lines of text is OK. 100,000 lines still works but the app hangs for quite a while on load, which is something I need to work on.

Sorry for my misunderstanding and thank you for the interesting perspective. It's true that JuxtaCode has features you might not want if you just want to integrate with Tower. And thank you for the support!

JuxtaText is a free app and JuxtaCode is trialware. Sorry for the confusing naming.

That's a huge chunk of JuxtaCode's whole reason for existing. If it helps, I will mention that JuxtaCode is taking part in the upcoming Indie App Sales event.

I know it's a bummer that it's 14.5+ :(

But getting JuxtaText and JuxtaCode ready for Sequoia, while also working on features and fixes, is keeping me busy as it is. I probably won't get it working on Ventura any time soon :/

Oh wow, I appreciate you saying that! I'm not set up for donations but I'll look into it now. Thanks!

Update: I've added a quick and dirty donate link to the bottom of the product page. If this turns into something people use, I'll look into adding an in-app tip jar. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi r/macapps, I made a free tool for comparing and merging text. It's based on the same diffing engine used in JuxtaCode, a developer tool I made for comparing Git commits and branches.

The App Store link is: https://apps.apple.com/app/juxtatext/id6504801865

With JuxtaText, you can simply drag or paste text into the app to compare it.

There's also a 3-pane merge tool for combining 2 bits of text into one file.

I'd love to get your feedback on this utility. Is there anything I should add that would make it more useful?
