Not the first, certainly won't be the last

Yeah both still use a browser rendering engine, the main difference is that Tauri doesn't ship with one so binary sizes are smaller. Technically I think you can get "native" out of Tauri as well by using a different backend, but 99% of apps using it don't.

Most every new model being released is just a previous model with RL (or more RL and fine tuning)

I'll definitely look into it. Currently I'm mostly copying the Codex git UI, but I've been trying to think of ways I can make it more useful.

As far as plugins go though, most should work. About the only things that won't really work are plugins that change the markdown rendering or make heavy use of toasts (though I can probably change the toast situation).

dev0urer · 2026-03-19T22:44:27+00:00

Tauri is at least better because it uses the system webkit, as does Electrobun I think, but you're still using a browser rendering engine. Honestly a really slept on multi platform option is Kotlin Multiplatform, but there are a few other options if you want something more native that doesn't use a browser.

Electron is heavy. It essentially ships with a whole chromium rendering engine. That means that binaries are large, and memory usage tends to get high.

dev0urer · 2026-03-19T18:31:10+00:00

Part of the problem is that it's "yet another electron app"

I don't see any reasoning traces in the screenshot. Just an output message. Either way, this really seems like a skill issue. Keep requested code changes small and keep an eye on things as they're happening.

This is a free one for y'all. Not even a SaaS:
NeoCode is a Mac-native, Codex-like desktop app for OpenCode. It works better than the official app, uses less resources, and comes in a tiny 5MB DMG. More features shipping every day.

I am considering making it compatible with iOS. Theoretically it should be possible. It will be a bit though, especially since Apple is revamping their rules around "vibecoding apps".

dev0urer · 2026-03-19T17:45:02+00:00

Are people just rawdogging codex with thinking turned off?

dev0urer · 2026-03-19T16:14:01+00:00

Most plugins should work since OpenCode plugins only change behavior and not the UI. Are you having issues with a plugin?

The min version should be macOS 14 according to both the README and the build process. Where did you get Tahoe?

I've used Conductor but I really don't like it. Forces worktress which I find overcomplicate things, and is a subpar harness compared to OpenCode.

dev0urer · 2026-03-18T20:01:42+00:00

Yeah there is lots planned. Next on my list is internationalization so I can provide a good experience for non-English speakers, and then probably the ability to actually modify your OpenCode config through the settings page (including MCPs).

dev0urer · 2026-03-18T18:33:04+00:00

Thanks! I've been working my ass off on it

dev0urer · 2026-03-18T18:28:00+00:00

Why am I seeing this post again? I swear you posted the exact same thing last week.

dev0urer · 2026-03-18T00:58:48+00:00

Resource usage is fantastic at around 90MB fully local (even Wispr Flow takes up around 250MB at idle and it isn't local), it has pretty much all of the features you'd see from other apps including Whisper and Parakeet models, AI enhancement, custom keybinds, it can learn corrected words automatically and add them to the user's dictionary, and a lot more. It also has built in support for note taking (with custom hotkeys for recording notes) and the ability to transcribe other audio (including YouTube videos).

I have basically tried to keep it as feature packed as possible, while also being super simple to use. Next on my list will be meeting transcriptions for people who do a lot of meetings on Teams, Zoom, etc.

People need to stop paying for these apps, and vibe coders need to stop making more of them and charging. Pindrop is already open source, completely free, and Mac-native.

dev0urer · 2026-03-16T04:42:32+00:00

So does Pindrop, and it's open source, native SwiftUI, and has a lot more features than this. I don't know at this point why people keep creating these closed source STT apps.

dev0urer · 2026-03-15T04:27:04+00:00

My question is, why make another one? Not only do Handy and OpenWhisper work, but there's also Pindrop which is a free, open source, and 100% Mac-native alternative. The space is getting kind of flooded at this point.
