Craig HockenberryAs promised, today we're giving you a look behind the scenes with Project Tapestry.
We’ve seen folks thinking that we're making an RSS reader – because that's all they can imagine. And that's natural – there has never been something like this before.
The personal web is now programmable.
Tapestry Unwoven • The Breakroom
It’s a bold claim to say you can make a universal timeline for the Internet. But you can. And we have. This post will explain the technology behind Project Tapestry and how we tested it as a prototype. We’ll keep this discussion at a fairly basic level: if you’re a web or app developer, you’ll […]
Tomáš SlížThe #Weather app doesn't show sunrise and sunset on #applewatch. The Clock app does! On #iOS is life still normal - you can find these in the Weather app as expected. For #outdoors enthusiasts it's illogical. #inconsistency
Nicola IarocciFrom my experience as a maintainer of midly successful open-source projects, I have come to the conclusion that people who criticize accepting payment to work on such projects are either acting in bad faith or are incredibly naive.

It's honestly a little worrying that Apple showed off native ports of Microsoft Office for visionOS, but its own Numbers app was run in iPad emulation mode.

Mike McCueThe network effect for #ActivityPub is gaining some serious momentum right now. As more services adopt the protocol, more people, more communities and more content are added to the network making it increasingly more valuable for everyone.
