  • 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 canโ€™t suffer the harsh lighting in most places. The widget helps me turn off the lights when I go to sleep. Source: over 3 years 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 3 years 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 3 years 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(โ€œโ€).shadow().colorInvert() means SwiftUI will add three function calls... - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago
  • Apps that should be paid, but are not
    Volum for controlling DIY smart home devices from your keyboard. Source: over 3 years ago
  • Got my first macbook today. A 14 inch M1Pro. Tips?
    That's a pretty common scenario for me, as I may have 1 Xcode window, 2 Sublime Text windows and a browser window for working on rcmd, then another set of Xcode and Sublime Text windows plus some Hopper windows for working on ๐ŸŒ• Lunar, then maybe Xcode, Sublime and Proxyman for working on Volum and so on.

  • Apple Music is the most buggy and annoying software I use
    Second that, Snapcast is great and the multi room feature is magical. Every friend that comes over lets out a wow when they hear the music synchronized in the kitchen, living room and patio at the same time. I also created a free app to control Snapcast with macOS keyboard shortcuts or from your iPhone/iPad: https://lowtechguys.com/volum. - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago
  • Privacy first, open source home automation
    Iโ€™ve been using a Pi 4 with Home Assistant for the last 2 years, but Iโ€™ve accumulated so many devices in its dashboard that just turning a light off felt too cumbersome. Sure, Iโ€™ve automated everything I could, but humans are not predictable so I often need to adjust brightness or volume of some device. I had some keyboard shortcuts in BetterTouchTool using the HA REST API but it felt too fragile. In the end I... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago
  • ESPHome โ€“ Connect ESP32 with Sensors to HomeAssistant
    This project was the best thing I stumbled upon this decade. I have used ESPHome to create a wireless ambient light sensor that my Mac app (https://lunar.fyi/#sensor) can use to adapt monitor brightness automatically. Even non-technical users are now doing their own sensor with the tutorial I wrote: https://lunar.fyi/sensor I also like to use ESPHome for standalone devices like dimmable LED strings and IR remotes,... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago
