I needed a more modern settings window for an upcoming #macOS app. I couldn't find an all in one package, so I made one!

This is a localized settings window replacement for SwiftUI, which matches the post Ventura Settings App.

Seriously, Apple folks: you have access to a huge amount of internal source code. Please try searching for things like "extension CGSize", "extension CGRect", or other common types, because if *you're* extending them there's a good chance we're extending them too. You own them, so adding Equatable or whatever isn't a big deal for you, but it's going to become a huge deal for us in the near future.

I've started working on a little tool for creating retro games.

It consists of a C-like language with automatic garbage collection, and a runtime with a 320x240 color indexed display.
Can be run from cmd line, or as a vscode extension, which also gives you symbolic debugging.

The whole thing is written in C++ and SDL2, so should (eventually) be able to export to a bunch of platforms including Web Assembly.
