Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use?
- https://xenodium.com/an-ios-journaling-app-powered-by-org-pl... - Lately, I'm having a go at building a privacy-focused plain-text-based iOS journaling app. I starte building it for someone important in my life but now using it myself.
- https://flathabits.com - After reading Atomic Habits, I wanted a habit tracker but most had more friction than I wanted, required accounts, had distractions, lock-in etc. so I built a privacy-focused app, with little friction and no-lockin (saves to plain text).
- https://plainorg.com - There are a gazillion markdown apps on the App Store, but hardly any supporting org markup, so I built one.
- https://xenodium.com/scratch-a-minimal-scratch-area - I wanted a surface where I could just dump text with as few taps as possible.
- https://github.com/xenodium/macosrec - I wanted to take either screenshots or videos of macOS apps from the command line, so I could integrate anywhere.
- https://github.com/xenodium/chatgpt-shell - I'm far down the Emacs rabbit hole, so I prefer Emacs-integrated tools. Built a ChatGPT Emacs shell to see what the hype was all about ;) tl;dr it really does help.
- https://github.com/xenodium/dwim-shell-command - A way to manage and easily apply the gazillion one-liners (and more complex scripts) I've come across. I got close to 100 utils check-in now https://github.com/xenodium/dwim-shell-command#my-toolbox
- https://github.com/xenodium/ob-swiftui - Play around with SwiftUI layouts from the comfort of my preferd editor.
- https://github.com/xenodium/company-org-block - Org block completion.

More advanced emacs tutorials
A fairly friction-free one that keeps on giving is a package I wrote (dwim-shell-command) to make it easy to apply shell commands to single or multiple dired files or current buffer, without really having to think about the command itself.

Joining images from the comfort of dired
I took two pictures (front and back) of a product. I wanted a single picture with front and back side to side. Not something I'll need frequently, but I'll never need to look this up again (now have my own command). With dwim-shell-command it's easy to add.

Tesseract integration
Basic command line utility integrations are pretty simple with dwim-shell-command.

Taking screenshots or videos (gifs) of any macOS window
Will write it up at some point... tl;dr built macosrec (command-line utility) and hooked it up to Emacs via dwim-shell-command. I'm trialing the following bindings:

macOS DWIM "Open with" command (ok, last one for a while)
Looking into it, but cant' reproduce with GIMP-2.10. How did you install it on your mac? I installed via `brew install gimp`. May be better to follow-up in the issue itself.

Should you add screenshots to documentation?
I built a macOS commmand line util to take window screenshots or videos https://github.com/xenodium/macosrec Window screenshots are mostly covered by macOS built-in app, but videos are not.
Mostly grew out of a desire to post screenshots on my posts and projects.
I often wish I could see how some projects look before I install them (but they often don't have screenshots). I'm doing my bit with my projects, I hope.

Big fan of screencapture. I wanted something similar but for capturing window videos, so I built https://github.com/xenodium/macosrec
I often wrap command line utilites with Emacs functions (don't need to remember invocation flags/structure but also enables batch invocations):
