   Easier and faster to navigate through apps

   Since I managed to get used with this app I can't imagine a day of work without it. Incredible powerful and easy to use / configure.

   👍 Pros:    Increases your productivity

   👎 Cons:    You need a little time to get used with it

   A useful productivity tool

   rcmd is something that could potentially turbocharge your productivity. However! you will need to get used to using it.

   My only issue is that I forget about it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

   👍 Pros:    Improves your productivity

   👎 Cons:    It's super easy to forget that it exists

• Can someone post this wallpaper or let me know where to find it?

  The right side widget is a Toggle Light button of my Volum app. I carry a warm LED string with me wherever I go because I can’t suffer the harsh lighting in most places. The widget helps me turn off the lights when I go to sleep. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: What Happened to iOS Widgets?

  I've done a few widgets for Volum (to easily turn on/off DIY lights and mute speakers: https://lowtechguys.com/volum) and for Sub Sol (to see the next private party: https://subsol.one) Screenshot here: https://f.alinpanaitiu.com/mt37aX/Image.png While they're easy to write because of the new SwiftUI APIs, they're indeed very limited. All I am able to do is add buttons which when pressed, they open an URL. I... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Best tips for reducing eyestrain while coding with astigmatism?

  I received the same diagnostic in 2017, which coincided with the year I got my first external monitor for my MacBook. Headaches and eye pain became a more common occurence in the first weeks, until I stumbled upon ddcctl [0] and the fact that monitor brightness can be changed from the OS. That's when I developed the first version of Lunar (https://lunar.fyi) to adapt brightness automatically throughout the day... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• SwiftUI Is Convenient, but Slow

  Author here! Aside from Lunar (https://lunar.fyi/) all my apps over at https://lowtechguys.com/ are 100% SwiftUI. In my extensive experience, this is the only major disadvantage I found: UIs with hundreds of stylized elements can be too slow I suspect this happens especially because adding style to an element makes the graph deeper (e.g. Text(“”).shadow().colorInvert() means SwiftUI will add three function calls... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• It's been almost 9 months since Ventura was released. What's your thoughts about "Stage Manager"?

• Anime.js – A lightweight JavaScript animation library

  One less known use case for this is creating animated UI demos, which as a dev I find harder to do using video editing software. I used it to create the simple demo on the rcmd frontpage: https://lowtechguys.com/rcmd This is the code, where I'm just animating elements of an SVG I previously created with Sketch: https://github.com/FuzzyIdeas/lowtechguys/blob/main/src/rcmd/index.plim#L211-L379 But because Lunar's... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Witch – macOS window switcher replacement

  Also check out my rcmd app (https://lowtechguys.com/rcmd) for more keyboard centric workflows. It’s definitely not as powerful as Witch for windows/tabs but rcmd’s one-key approach is instant for app switching. Witch has some ingenious features indeed: searching browser/editor/terminal tabs, lingering on an app to show its windows etc. I wish Apple would allow this kind of functionality in App Store apps. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Witch – macOS window switcher replacement

  I've found rcmd quite useful for window switching. It lets you use the right command key plus another key to switch applications. Right command + s for Safari, for example. It can also display a switcher that displays the combinations. https://lowtechguys.com/rcmd/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
