@PadraigOCinneide That’s really cool! Wherever you end up, the idea of a lighter alternative to SwiftGodot is nice. The escape hatch of being able to keep the transpile GDScript code feels comfortable, too.

@PadraigOCinneide Love the spirit of it. I haven’t tried SwiftGodot yet, but it does look a bit complex (but I do want to use Swift!).
I’m curious what sort of things this transpiler saves you from; and what sort of limitations it has, but at this point I’m assigning you an essay haha

When you lose Internet access, Discord immediately goes completely blank. That is not offline-first design!

This works in Retcon, if that’s your style.

The other day I was looking at an Indian place on Apple Maps, and someone had uploaded their CV as a restaurant photo
(I blurred their info for the screenshots)

You’d expect Picker to be a straightforward view in SwiftUI; but in Dye, pickers took a baffling amount of coercing to actually look right, and not be absurdly slow. Here’s some perplexing code I had to write!

Announcing Dye! (no relation)
Set a different theme color for each one of your apps: make Finder red, and Photos blue, each one’s tint’s now up to you.
Dye is a free, tiny app, handwritten with care. And it’s open-source!

So, with @chris@m.objc.io we spent January making Pancake: an app for making your own blog.
It lets you both create and edit your site, and instantly publish it to the built-in hosting service. It's very, very rough, but pretty neat already!
It’s out as a closed beta, and we recorded a short video showing the app in action: https://chris.eidhof.nl/post/building-pancake/
