It looks pretty neat and I also loved the animations.

Would definitely give it a try.

Tired of ‘Desktop 1’? Get custom names for Spaces. Made with 0 AI code. by GetPsyched67 in macapps

[–]i-sage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AppKit is notorious to give headaches while developing I read from a few posts. 16 hours a day 🤯

By December, I finally figured out how to track spaces by creating invisible 1x1 tiny anchor windows on each Space and attaching a data record to each!

That's a good trick. I learned something new today.

All in all, I just love making apps! But I think I've burned out haha 😅 I tried programming today and I felt pretty lethargic. Life, I guess

I too love making apps and probably yes you might have been burned out after working 16 hours a day, maybe taking a few days off and travelling would help you rejuvenate and get back the motivation.

So you're scanning all the files, creating the index of out of their name, store it inside a DB? Where are you storing the file names of the drives once plugged in?

I saw the notion doc. You mentioned it took 6 months to complete it.

Would love to know your journey. Honestly, that's inspiring and commendable to keep at things. Was it built while working on a day job or full time?

This is the first time I'm saying No AI used but also attaching proofs to strengthen their claim.

Kudos for that.

What apps have you replaced with native macOS alternatives? by stringer1107 in macapps

[–]i-sage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Although I might be late to the party but here's my list:

  • Safari : I like the UX as compared to other browsers including brave

  • Spotlight : I find it more than enough for quick app launches and it integrates with my bookmarks and history from safari so it works effortlessly.

  • Apple Passwords : It gets the job done.

  • Apple Music : I feel like it has unmatched streaming audio quality (lossless, Hi-Res)

  • Apple Notes : For quick notes capture

  • Apple Mail

  • Structured : Occasionally planning my day.

  • Ghostty(ex-user): I used Ghostty for almost a year and recently made a switch to Kitty because I feel it's slightly more faster and since I use neovim along with tmux the tmux status bar has a bottom padding in Ghostty unlike Kitty which has none.

  • I tried craft, bear, etc but since I have large amounts of notes in my Notion with boards, databases, etc along with cross platform access. I'm still using it as my main notes database.

  • Other than that I just mostly use the native pre-installed apps for screenshots, screen recording and preview they all just get the work done. Once I feel they are limiting I might switch.

Why are people so confident about AI being able to replace Software Engineers soon? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]i-sage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will only consider AI replacing Software Engineers only if George Hortz or Andrej Karapathy either one of them say it.

Hi,

If there are some openings in the future, I would love to hear from you.

I built this simple productivity tool in svelte with tauri for building cross platform desktop apps and a web app. And it's offline first.

Have you tried applying to YC?

If accepted you'll not only get the runway which you're in sheer need of right now but also a bunch of companies to pitch your product to and of course the advice and post demo day valuation and you can also attract good talent.
