This is quite the list to be included in! 😳 Thank you 🫶

@_chenglou Panic, Flexibits, The Icon Factory, Lickability. All of them.

Software economics allow actual indies to also make apps. (Although not sure for how much longer)

[Lickability @lickability]

Some of these are so fun and we can’t agree on a unanimous favorite...

[Lickability @lickability]

Here’s a few tools for Swift devs that solve a niche problem: making Apple Developer docs play nicely with LLMs—now in multiple flavors! ⤵️

Some of us might be on here..? 👀🛫

And yes, we’re bringing some very good new swag this year 😎

Is everyone “vibe coding” during their off hours? Are our engineers 10x-ing productivity on every project?? Give it a read and find out! 😝

[Lickability @lickability]

Hey! 👋 We’re back with another blog post:

We canvassed our team of technical and non-technical professionals to see if/how they’re using AI, and where they are (or aren’t) finding it useful.

This is such a fun concept for a focusing app with some thoughtful details on display, too. We’re checking it out!

+ We especially like the “wiggle to dismiss” feature. 😜

[Dominik Kandravy @heyiamdk]

name a prettier way to focus on mac.

monocle 3.1 lands monday. app groups + stage manager + a lot more.

Congrats to all our friends who were recently recognized as pillars of the Apple development community, and an extra-special shout-out to Lickability alum @mikaela__caron! 🦄 ❤️

[Lickability @lickability]

But how many people want these workflows to be ubiquitous? Are some problems begging for agentic automation while others are best solved through thoughtful UX? Or will we realize these workflows work best in certain niches and not as a universal solution?

What are your thoughts?

[Lickability @lickability]

We’re hard at work, so how about winding down the week with a discussion topic: What does the future of using apps look like?

[Lickability @lickability]

AI has changed how a lot of people are working with software while building (agents, prompting, etc.), and many companies are integrating this workflow into the core levels of their products (Copilot in Windows 11, Apple’s upcoming “Extensions” in iOS 27).

[Lickability @lickability]

We have a cool little 🤏 project planned just before #WWDC2026, but we need some more data... So: What are some predictions (or items on your wishlist) for #WWDC this year?

Hardware, software, product, design, or anything in-between, we’d love to hear from you! 🙏

[Lickability @lickability]

We wanted to highlight examples of quality software made by folks who care about performance & the value of simply solving a problem.

Also, we wrote about that concept here:

If people appreciate these recs, we’ll try to make this a more regular thing. 😉

People seemed to like our last few software shout-outs, so have some more!
