infinite canvas for fonts

@CristianRus4 so meta

man I hate this so much on macOS 27

@hunterjisaacson there’s some truth here but thinking of your users as stupid is probably not a good way to design a product, just saying

Users don’t read They use The more you force them to think, the faster they’ll zone out Nobody is reading your little onboarding paragraphs bro Make the button red and make it pulse Lizard brain mode

@yescynfria even more impressive! btw your apps are so cool, love seeing the craft you put into them, it’s rare. i find it very inspiring!

@rafa_b_g aw thank you! i also just recently started but loving how meditative it is to practice, keep at itttt

born to be a scribe forced to work in b2b saas

@_julianschiavo i beg you @Apple

Allow “Codex” to access Xcode? Allow “Codex” to access Xcode? Allow “Codex” to access Xcode? Allow “Codex” to access Xcode?

App Review team seeing Shipaton is back:

@PKodmad @RevenueCat thanks!

@rafa_b_g @RevenueCat wow this looks so cool!

now that @RevenueCat #shipaton is live, who wants a TestFlight invite? i’m building a font browser for ios you can explore, inspect, and collect thousands of free fonts in this very nice and beautiful ui just comment or dm

@raffichill don’t have much experience outside the walled garden but i can confirm it’s very fun

After 1y in my web era I have firmly concluded that iOS development is 🐐 The walled garden is amazing and if you disagree you haven’t found something fun or interesting enough to be worth the friction

@louisagareiss don’t ever complain

Oh nice I just got my pocket money 😄

@yahyavision i’m gatekeeping it till i die

Every designer has a favorite font(s) Which one is yours?

@asallen it really is

This may be hard to believe, but 20 years ago we all used 3D software to design app icons.

@gabriel1 @RandianCapital lol

@RandianCapital you posts have negative demand

nothing has infinite demand

@ConorMcCarter @DanHollick reminds me of nubank’s logo

@DanHollick one of my favorite fonts (parabole display) was created by a student who flipped the counter and stems of the non-display typeface. i wonder if this tool could help me try that too :)

I might have accidentally built a font editor.

@DanHollick wow this is so beautiful! where can i try it?

It derives the strokes from a base font (Inter) and builds parameters for all the properties. You can edit all the glyphs with a specific property at the same time or edit any property on a single glyph

@krispuckett didn’t think liquid glass would hold up lol. very nice, man!

@rafa_b_g Custom and why surprised lol?

Absolutely no one: Me: hey so I love these little Liquid Glass blocks I made a month ago for health visualization and now I want them in other spots on my app. Consistency is godliness or something like that.

@DanHollick @dbillson looks so awkward lol

@dbillson Have I been shaking hands wrong?

📍bank, london

anyone wants a test flight invite to test my font browser ios app?
