interested in building products with you, making @KULTA_app

[Karl Sander @kall]

@MeganNyvold the entire country of germany is on board with it

@GergelyOrosz very niche: music synthesizer module based on a teensy microcontroller. It has (too) many small community built apps, and they have a github action to create custom builds to fit the size limit of the microcontroller exactly https://t.co/Hzg7vrbsXh

@seconds_0 i think brazil is trying, with their subsidized plastic surgery

[Karl Sander @kall]

@sarah_cone paying 70$ for a camera app because the design is super nice feels like luxury, but we should have more

[Karl Sander @kall]

@deepfates go even more nifty with the polyend tracker (mini)

@ospfranco @SuchyDaniel i used and liked pulumi a bunch and i think config plugins are going there, it's just not quite as abstracted with nice objects etc, but you can build it on top https://t.co/9mnD1Dpofx

[Karl Sander @kall]

@ospfranco @SuchyDaniel expo config plug-ins is kinda like that, right? It's code, maybe not as smooth with the types as CDK/Pulumi https://t.co/sQVnQVVMLs

[Karl Sander @kall]

@ospfranco @SuchyDaniel smells like expo config plugins?

@SeanMombo Have wondered about the same thing. It's about caching/batching to account for instability. If you skip or delay a few frames of mouse movement, it's fine, so can just stream as fast as possible. If you drop or delay even a few "frames" of sound, it'll sound bad.

[Karl Sander @kall]

@ospfranco what's your issue? I feel like not many people are actually using it at production level... I think it's why i followed you

[Karl Sander @kall]

@peduarte - ability to run (custom) extensions
- AI (replace chatGPT app in dock)
- "command grid" widget to jump right into specific commands
- keyboard extension for snippets / clipboard / AI commands (see excellent Copied app that sadly died)

[Karl Sander @kall]

@0xrohin @MaxRovensky @brycedriesenga @raycastapp Also triple back tap or floating button (assistive touch). Pretty niche features though.

Can also run as keyboard extension in other apps.

I would probably just use it from the dock pretty often.

@ryanflorence I ran into this when trying to create react reconciler for audio synthesis. Visual programming is dominant in that field and not really anywhere else

I think you can't really do it well in text, in 2D it's super clear.

Cycle.js had the graph, but no nice way to write it

[Karl Sander @kall]

@ryanflorence the world of audio/visual programming if we had this

[Karl Sander @kall]

@browserdotsys conversations after "I am blind. Can you describe this scene to me in detail" are generally downright heartwarming.

It tries to describe vibe/evoked emotion without further prompting and gets downright poetic when there happens to be a painting in the scene.

[Karl Sander @kall]

@browserdotsys I still consider GPT4 an ally to the blind community

[Karl Sander @kall]

@MaxRovensky right now you have to write the whole thing in native code. Being able to write React/JSX that will turn into a widget will be nice.

Basically this is all that React Native is, except it just works for UIKit and some iOS features don't support that.

[Karl Sander @kall]

@MaxRovensky one edge use case is writing UI on the React side for SwiftUI-only features like Widgets or Live Activities
