Day, Dusk & Dawn cats. The idea seems something out of Issac Asimov's foundation.

I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Try turning a patch of the garden into the same symbol!
Origin story of Electro from Spiderman just made a jump from fantasy to science-fiction!
Here's my implementation from 2014 that let's you spawn more ants on the grid. http://code-art.chintanghate.me/LangtonsAnt.html
I am glad it's being useful. :)
I used AppleScript for the first two years of this app as well (Can't believe it's been 7 years since I started it). But it's hard to handle complex programs, and handing off data to Swift or Objective-C from AppleScript. So I switched to [ScriptingBridge](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/scriptingbridge). It provides better Objective-C APIs to handle Apple Events.
I have published an app [Exporter](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/exporter/id1099120373?mt=12) that does something similar - exports Apple Notes to HTML and markdown with the attachments. Give it a try, let me know if it solves your issue.
Also, why did you select JSON as the output format?
That’s an amazing initiative. Best of luck! :)
+1 to a vacation. And after that rather than going after what's in demand/hype right now, go after something that you want to use and isn't available in the market, and try to build that. I have found building tools for myself that I and a bunch of other people love to use as one of the most rewarding/fulfilling work.
Not a technical skill, but in the self improvement genre - Colin Murray’s channel https://m.youtube.com/@colinmurrayYT/videos is great for people who like exercising from home, without investing a lot in equipments and weight. Has helped me exercise more regularly compared to past years.
And then for one of my hobbies https://m.youtube.com/@idaemonplasmo for building better model kit aircrafts.
Not sure if they are masters of their craft, but they make their craft more accessible/enjoyable for me.
Same! would open a small patisserie.
I remember seeing it years ago, still amazed by it. What's even cooler is that it was created almost 10 years ago and I believe it hasn't changed much since then. You can read about it [here](https://acko.net/blog/zero-to-sixty-in-one-second/)
Go for boring descriptive names that create a cute acronym. Win-Win!
From version 3.0, you can export notes to HTML format as well, which can also be imported back into Apple Notes with formatting and attachments preserved. Attachments (PEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF & BMP files) are supported Catalina onward.
It's based on the old school typewriters. :)
Sure. Added the description. As far as development goes, this was kind of a personal challenge after reading all the documentation on NSTextView and its layout system. And as for the pricing model, the free version limits you to 250 words per document. And you can remove the 250 words per document limit via an inApp purchase.
Origin is an app for writers & content creators. Its strictly a write only app, no editing allowed. Its designed to work exactly like a typewriter to improve focus, & avoid getting stuck / overthink on mistakes. Its main purpose is to get you from an idea to the rough draft as fast as possible.
Fixed it to some extent. Thanks for reminding me of the issue.
Actually I picked up a template from HTML5 UP & modified it a bit to make it look like the idea I had in mind. But I guess I changed some part of the CSS for side-images, that has resulted into this issue. I'll look into the browser-specific tags, I think I might have messed it up there.
If you guys are using OS X notes app & need to export the notes to markdown for easy transition to Falcon, you can use the exporter app (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/exporter/id1099120373?ls=1&m...).
Sorry about that, I forgot to fix the site for Firefox. I will get it fixed soon. I am kind of a CSS noob, so I'll have to ask for help from someone.
It was easier to develop, but hard to pass reviews. It started the review process on April 2 & ended it on April 18 after submitting 2 more builds to comply with Apple's terms & conditions.
Received this question a couple of times, about the app being native or not, so clarifying it. The only web view based component in the app is the preview, everything else is made of basic native elements, & the whole app is coded in swift. I think the doubt rose from the point that you could theme it with hex-color codes. But how that works is that, whenever you change the theme, the app reads the light / dark plist files and assigns color to app components after converting the hex-colors to NSColors. I hope this resolves the doubt.
Thank you. It is coming soon :)
Thank you. Most note-taking apps follow the same 3-paned split-view format, so you can say that ;)
Yeah this is a native app, written in swift.
A while ago I started using sketch to design iOS apps, and this code helps me simplify dealing with color palettes in the coding phase. Hope this is of some help to iOS developers out here.
This question was answered aptly on quora, perhaps something from this link will be helpful for you - http://www.quora.com/What-are-the-most-learner-friendly-reso...
This is my first app on the iOS AppStore - a side-project that I have worked on weekends stretching throughout the last month. The challenge was to convert a single rss feed (available here - https://www.hackerrank.com/calendar) into an utility app that notifies enthusiastic coders about the live and upcoming algorithmic challenges on the internet.
I am not going to present my answer as my ideal utopia but rather as a suggestion. You should try one of these things
1. Go Indie
2. Join a startup
These both options have cultural parameters that are weighing in exactly opposite direction to that of a major-corp. Doing this will help you learn about your own definition of an ideal utopia for a workplace. Having experienced both the cultures you'll be able to decide your ideal utopia - what team size you like to work with, at what pace, at what degree of freedom, in a flat hierarchy or well structured one, remotely or inside an office surrounded by colleagues and so on. I hope this helps in finding your ideal workplace. Good Luck :)
Thats a nice List. You should check-out credits section of the Nat Geo 'Guide' apps for iOS. They list all the open source code they use, and are very neatly designed.
