This is so fun. I built this into a live performance tool I am using this weekend. Thank you for sharing!

Minor UX feedback

- I find the internal scroll of setting up the presets limiting. Because the whole top half is fixed it is hard to see all my settings at once. Could either the whole panel scroll?

- In dark mode, the "Save" button is black on dark grey and looks disabled.

- The delete button is scarily prominent and no confimation. Can that be moved inside the preset panel so i dont accidently hit it while performing?

Woah, nice! I am definitely not a c coder, but I'm a UX designer. I've thought this project was cool for years and would be interested in helping out if my skills are ever of any use.

I’ve spent a bunch of time disassembling a baby toy recently to do some circuit bending / adding to my synth setup. I’d be curious if anyone here has done any of that and has any fun results to share. I got stuck because I need a more precise soldiering iron, but hope to post some results at some point.

Off topic from the solver, which is neat to read through - I’m still a big fan of this game. Looks like I’ve played 33 days of the past ~40 days. My only critique is that the UI design of the end state could be improved. Lots of very small fonts.

Maybe I am misunderstanding, but I just tried that flow with a Pages document and it still works in Sonoma. Drag the icon from the header, drop into an email. Now I'm curious what the old feature was.

I recently did a similar project for someone who had a long running site. They wanted to keep all the existing pages so that people's bookmarks would still work (while reducing their hosting fees).

In that case, their site was built in Wordpress, and so I grabbed the html and then posted it on GitHub pages (free static hosting). Then I pointed the domain name to Github from the previous host.

This worked well because they didn't care that it was no longer editable (although it could be hand edited without _that_ much trouble) and they had a strong desire to make it aesthetically identical.

Not sure if there is a huge "website update" component in your situation, but if not, you could probably go a similar route.

Right Click the icon > Copy/Paste as > Copy as SVG

We use that and just paste it into the codebase.

I've also used a bulk export plugin that autonames things. Would have to lookup the plugin name if you're interested.
