Meet BaizeBook — my snooker scoring app for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.

Score a frame at the table, then look back at your breaks, results and match history.

Free, with no accounts, ads or subscriptions. Here’s a look inside. 🧵 1/5

@pandannzo @CloudflareDev @Cloudflare A log of the original file paths would make an undo button straightforward. Handy when a screenshot ends up in the wrong folder.

@SebastianRoehl @HabitKit I'd compare it with a version showing one larger habit grid in that same mockup. At banner size, I find the smaller panels harder to make out.

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@NeuralAA @davidhaz Try splitting it into three bits: a grid of cubes, tilt on hover, then a ripple on click. Get each working before tuning how springy it feels.

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@jasperdeboer @RobertJBye I'd make the button interrupt a spoken reply too. Saves waiting for the agent to finish when you need to correct it.

A good detail for a course app: moving an embedded video into a smaller sidebar shouldn't restart the lesson.

moveBefore() preserves the iframe's state. Browser support is still limited, so check the fallback too.

Design Engineering Tip:
Moving a playing embed to another spot with appendChild restarts it. The iframe is removed, then inserted again. moveBefore() moves it, and it keeps playing:

if ("moveBefore" in slot) slot.moveBefore(player, null)
else slot.insertBefore(player, null)

@eliakuratli Nice touch having undo here. Signing with a mouse takes a few attempts 😂

@raffiki_art @PlatenPaperInk The capsule shape coming from a sweet made me laugh 😂

Deno is joining Cloudflare. Deno Deploy shuts down in six months.

I'd start a migration by listing the Deno APIs and hosted services the app depends on, then moving one route before attempting the whole app.

@dimagroshev The strikethrough alongside the green tick is a nice touch.

Expo's new write-up on agent skills has a useful testing idea:

Give the agent a normal task without naming the skill. Check whether it finds it, follows the guidance in the code, and produces a working app.

@mironcatalin @keyframer_dev Can you export a recording to attach it to a bug report?

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@raffiki_art @PlatenPaperInk An iPad with a keyboard feels like a good fit for writing longer letters.

Saw someone share a project they were working on. A day or two later, someone else posted the same thing which was apparently made with 1 prompt.
I don’t think there was any bad intent, but I wonder how that feels for the original dev. Would it put you off sharing work early?
I’d be interested to see where both projects are in a month.

@excalidraw I'd have an agent render the diagram before calling it finished, then check for overlapping labels and arrows.

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@jbedln The handwritten notes are my favourite bit 👌

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@dominikmartn I'd use this. Saves typing 'shorter' as another message.

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@genue Love the way the video demo is put together! Care to share how you made that?

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@uiNerd What's changing in the MCP server for 2.0?

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@raffiki_art @PlatenPaperInk The stacked envelopes look really good. I'd use this with friends.

[Zuhayr Khan @zuhayr_dev]

@ios_dev_alb This would look good opening a photo gallery 👌
