bland VS tip

Recently bought a used 10 year old MacMini to use as a home server behind Tailscale. So now writing small apps here and there for myself. Latest is bland, it's like del.icio.us but you can host it yourself: https://github.com/valueof/bland.

- Integration with other macOS apps, like Tip.app[1], so selection (region) in Emacs is recognised by macOS and sent to Tip.app as stdin

From downsides, it won't compile with xwidgets support (webkit).

Project 1: A desktop app. 900+ github stars, built with Swift / Obj C

Alternatively, you can program Tip (https://github.com/tanin47/tip, disclaimer: I'm the creator) to popup relevant menu items based on the text you currently select.

I've been using this at work hundreds of times every day for years now. I'd love anyone to try it out.

It won't, but I feel pretty damn good about my repo getting almost 900 stars (https://github.com/tanin47/tip).

The github stars is quite useful to break into big tech as well. But the value of it probably stops there.

Thank you for pointing it out. I just notice the description.

I guess I can offer a different one that is free.

A programmable tooltip on Mac: https://github.com/tanin47/tip

I'm experimenting with a mechanism to replace the selected text. You can select a text (on any app), activate the tooltip, and select one of the options, and that option can replace the selected text. The UX isn't as smooth as I want, and I'm still figuring out how to overcome that.

I use a mouse with 3 extra buttons.

2 are for copying and pasting.

1 is for activating a programmable tooltip.

Here are the apps I built for the above:

1. Mouse config tool for Mac https://github.com/tanin47/noo
