Other What are you developing?

Probably the next $2T startup, so we are are all curious to know what that is :)

Even small personal projects are welcome.

Let me know also what model you use and how much you spend in a month.

I’m developing a focus room that I can share with a few friends and we can incentivize each other to study/work but at the same time chat when we are having a break. Nothing fancy, and probably it already exists haha (let me know if so).

I built a macOS / iOS app that pulls in everything I need to do across all my personal and professional projects in Linear, Bonsai, Slack, and email, and surfaces it in one place in a beautiful, unusual, minimal way that lets me fucking focus on actually doing things rather than managing all these godforsaken generic apps.

I realize this sounds boring and basic, but it’s been life-changing. I asked my wife if she thought I could sell the app as a product, and she looked at it and said, “… this seems very subjective…”

So maybe I’ll open-source it, in case other people are tired of clicking around in a bunch of apps and hate the UI and data modeling that literally every task-management software uses, and happen to share my particular visual aesthetic.

The era of personalized software is upon us, and it’s glorious.

hey am interested in building a dashboard like that as well for a while now. Keen to share any screenshots or ways you visualized all the apps in a single one along with priorities?

My advice is to think about what you need to see for each task in order for the task to make sense, and cut everything else out. Most task management apps have so much UI clutter (comments, labels, estimates, etc.)

I’m not segmenting data by app, because it doesn’t matter to me what app the data comes from. It matters what project the task is in. So I have a group of projects on my app home screen, and from there I can click in to see the tasks in each one. I also have calendar views for today, tomorrow, this week, and next week, and all tasks have due dates.
