- 😻 I Kept Opening VS Code Just to Read a File FeatherCode is a native Mac code editor I built because I was tired of waiting for Electron to boot just to read one file. It's 1.3 MB, opens instantly, has multi-cursor and a real Vim mode that embeds Neovim, highlights 18 languages, and previews source files in Finder with Quick Look. $12.99 one-time.
- 🏮 The Chord Your Keyboard Can't Play I built a tiny piano app and found a chord that physically cannot be played on a MacBook keyboard. The bug wasn't in my code—it's soldered into the keyboard, and it's been there for sixty years.

- 🕺 I Scroll Too Much, So I Built an Elevator I dictated the idea one morning and shipped it that afternoon: Scroll Elevator, a menu-bar app that puts jump-to-top/bottom buttons at your cursor when you scroll. Built because running a grid of AI coding agents had me scrolling all day.
- 🧙 How to Jump to the Top or Bottom of Any App on macOS The Mac has no universal 'scroll to top' button, and laptops dropped the Home/End keys. Here are the keyboard shortcuts that actually exist — and the tiny utility I built when I got tired of them.
- 🙃 Anki on a Game Controller: the AnKing Setup for Mac How to use a PlayStation, Xbox, or 8BitDo controller for Anki on Mac — with the prebuilt AnKing community profile in ControllerKeys.
- 🪔 File City I built a macOS app that turns your file system into a 3D city you can walk through, fly over, and use to watch AI agents work.
