I'm looking for people to try out a new version of Base, my SQLite editor for macOS.
If you'd like to give it a go, send me a private message with your email address (only used for TestFlight, no junk).
Boosts appreciated.
“Specifically, sunsetting our use of TCA and SwiftUI to make Dia lightweight, snappy, and responsive.”
Looks like the Browser Company moved away from SwiftUI. Personally I never used TCA but why does it lead to sluggishness?

Adding a custom font to a macOS app works a bit differently than on iOS, and it’s not particularly well documented. I wrote up the steps that worked for me, both as a reference for myself and in case it helps other developers looking to use a custom font in their Mac apps: https://nilcoalescing.com/blog/EmbeddingACustomFontIntoAMacOSAppBundle/

SwiftUI lists and tables on macOS struggle with large datasets, prompting me to design a custom scrollable list view with efficient view recycling for optimal performance. Details in my latest post:

KeyStash 0.4.0, with a simplified user interface, is out now! Bringing it one step closer to 1.0. 
This version requires MacOS 15 Sequoia.
If you're using KeyStash and plan on upgrading to macOS Sequoia, this update will prevent the app from freezing on the new OS. It also introduces a very minor redesign to work around some visual bugs.
GitHubRelease 0.3.2 · ghall89/KeyStashThis update is required for anybody using macOS 15 Sequoia.
Fixes an application hang when opening a license on macOS 15

Hey friends, anyone with access to a Mac, minimal #MacOSdev skills (and a love of teaching #Python, perhaps?) would like to help me package a customized #ThonnyIDE that includes pre-installed #py5 & #pymunk?
GitHubDoes anyone else wish for a Thonny "portable" for MacOS? · thonny thonny · Discussion #3090I have been using the Windows Thonny IDE portable, adding some plug-ins and libraries, to simplify the on-boarding of my students. Now I have many MacOS students and, due to no fault of Thonny, but...
I love* how — despite running on a top-of-the-line laptop that came out less than a month ago and having tons 64 GB RAM to work with — Slack still seems completely incapable of resizing its window contents smoothly.

It's been a while since I posted about @tootsdk - maybe it's worth the #introduction!
#TootSDK
is a cross-platform Swift library that can give you a head start when building apps for Mastodon and the fediverse in general. Works on desktop, mobile and server-side.
@davidgarywood and I created it with the goal of helping folks build all kinds of fun experiences that work with your favourite fedi instance. When we first moved from the other place, Dave set up a Mastodon instance for himself while I picked a Pleroma instance, and so we continually try to keep things working for both of us.
In any case, feel free to check it out and as always, your thoughts / comments / issues and PRs are always welcome

Beyond mere historical happenstance, is there a well-founded reason why #macOS does not offer Dynamic Type?
I would have thought some users might prefer text to be larger without necessarily wanting to change their screen resolution? #accessibility #a11y #macOSDev
