I LOVE the iPad Mini—I just can't believe it doesn't have Face ID! :o
Some Apple Maps inspiration for the Canvas pin feature in Atlas. #iosdev

Hi my name is Dan and I’m a TextKit junkie who was burned again.

For the Nth time, I’ve accidentally used NSMutableAttributedString as my text storage backing instead of NSTextStorage.

Learn from my mistakes, don’t be a victim.

Lmaooo same build: one passed *App Store* review while failed *Beta review* on a very subjective thing that's been there for a long while ☠️

Never change, App Store reviewers.

Also out this week is Atlas 1.1.0 with theme customization and the theme editor for markdown documents! We are talking many weeks in planning and construction so that it's easy to use on both macOS and iOS.

Big, too: You can also resize images in the editor now, which is something I've wanted to add for so long.

There are a whole host of other additions and minor tweaks as well—it's really coming along 🥹

Yay! Fox Issue & Project Tracker 3.1.0 with initial MCP support for macOS is finally out! I've been using it as a client to work alongside Claude and it's been a nice improvement in my workflows. I am hoping to increase functionality in the next release to boost versions & milestones, too!

Otherwise, both platforms get a healthy dose of UI tweaks and bug fixes.

Took some time to update Atlas’s landing page on my website and I think I've still got it. Also fun to see all of the versions together in the header :)

Wrapping up resizable images in Atlas's markdown editor. Getting that stupid freaking handle to look "cute" was such a PITA. #iosdev
