With 2022 over soon, what were your favorites apps of the year?
đź«´ Simple Comic free and open source - a reader for Graphic Novels, but it will also open image pdfs or a directory of images. It uses Apple's Vision Framework so you can use the mouse to select text in .pngs, .jpgs, and it has a Find command to make it all searchable. Once you've got the text, you can use the built-in Text-To-Speech to have it read to you, do a Google search, or paste it into translate.google.com to get it translated into a more comfortable language.

iOS 16 introduced the Live Text API, so I made an app to quickly markup text within your images.
I used the Vision framework to add full-text searching, and selection©ing to the text in Graphic Novels. Graphic Novels are just collection of image files, usually a zip of jpegs. It is a free reader app in the Apple App Store: Simple Comic It's for Mac, but it's open-source. The source code is here.

Is it possible to hide app menus in the menu bar?
hideOCRMenusIfUnavailable in OCRTracker.m in the open-source App Simple Comic which, if you go into Preferences and turn off Recognize Text hides all the menu items that depending on recognizing text to function. Go into Preferences* and turn Recognize Text back on, and it puts those menu items back. That way, I don't have to explain to the user why those menus items are dim.

WWDC live text feature for app?
You give it a CGImageRef, and a block, and the block gets called back with an array of structs, each of which contains a rectangle, a confidence level, and a string, that corresponds to one line of text. https://github.com/DavidPhillipOster/MockSimpleComic takes that and wraps it in a layer, so you can mouse over the text like you can in Preview when you open a .png. https://github.com/MaddTheSane/Simple-Comic/ has been taking my pull requests and putting it up on the App Store. All available today, and with the Vision framework, which works back to the 2019 vintage macOS, and iOS.

Show HN: NotesOllama – I added local LLM support to Apple Notes (through Ollama)
Another option for hacking something like this together could be HammerSpoon. I’ve spent some time with it, but haven’t tried integrating with Apple Notes, I mostly did stuff at the file system level to keep it easy.

getting current desktop to show on lockscreen? (MacOS Ventura)
Assuming no one has a cut-and-dried solution that just works, would something like this be possible with say, AppleScript or another scripting tool like Hammerspoon? I've not used either of these tools before, but would be open to seeking out a scripting solution on my own if it's viable. Or am I going to run into insurmountable security restrictions?
