Here's how Notefile 3.0 looks on macOS 15, compared to macOS 26 and macOS 27. I'm incredibly unhappy with what Liquid Glass is doing here. It's possible to remove the glass effect by setting isBordered to false on NSToolbarItem, but that doesn't work for certain controls like the search field. I don't think iOS offers any more control. These buttons are not the focus of the UI, but Liquid Glass makes them so. #MacDev #iOSDev

I finally updated my main laptop to macOS 26. I was hoping to just wait for 27, but, unfortunately work needs to be done. (Apple will only accept apps built with Xcode 26 now, and UIDesignRequiresCompatibility has *unique bugs* so it's time to support liquid glass.) Anyway here's Xcode 26.6 on macOS 26.5.2—the current release version of each. It's borderline unusable; I need to keep the inspector closed now unless I'm actively using it. #MacDev #iOSDev #Xcode

Proxygen v5.0 is now available for Mac and iOS. It is the biggest update yet, including:
- New Test tool with scripting, test assertions and variable extraction.
- Environment variables that are extracted from responses and inserted using {{var}} syntax.
- Sitemap for quick filtering of message history.
The app now also has a lower price point and is 50% off for a limited time.
We are just getting started.

Octavo, my PDF cleanup, layout, imposition and printing app for Mac, is now in TestFlight beta!
Head over to https://octavo.pro if you want to join the beta and check it out.
All comments welcome. (Gulp — this is the bit that always makes me nervous!)
