  • Personal Projects: Not my busiest year on record, but I did a lot. Updated: Generate slick changelogs from Git commits I do all of my release notes using careful git commit messages. It makes life so easy. SearchLink I still consider SearchLink – out of a hundred projects – the most useful thing I’ve made,…

  • Like I said in my last post, I do way more on my Mac than I’ll ever do on iOS, so this will be significantly shorter. iOS is mostly for playing games, Messages, social stuff, and consuming media. But here are a few standouts. iOS apps Drafts When I wake up in the middle of…

  • I’ve completely switched from Pinboard to linkding for bookmarking. Mostly because Pinboard hasn’t seen development in years, and the creator is getting a little… weird, which makes me wonder about its future. Pinboard still works fine, but linkding is actively developed, has mostly the same features, and can be hosted locally. I have my Web…

  • Marky 2.0

    ,

    I recently revived Marky the Markdownfier. In case you missed it, Marky turns any web page into clippable Markdown for storage in notes/organization apps.

  • Marky is back

  • 7 years ago I wrote about a script I was using to generate changelogs for Marked. Since then I’ve continued updating the script to work with just about all of my projects, from Xcode projects to Ruby gems to scripts that just have a VERSION file in the same directory. It can output a few…

  • As many of these updates seem to, this one started with a bug report from my friend Jay Miller, which caused me to run the test suite on SearchLink and discover a few things had broken since I last looked at it. So you get an update. Aside from fixing bugs that had cropped up,…

  • Ok, so you may or may not have heard of my Howzit project, so I’ll begin by recapping. “Howzit” is a contraction of “how does it” that allows you to query any project with commands like howzit build or howzit deploy and get documentation, as well as automatically execute the necessary steps for a task.…

  • There’s a new version of Marked 2 out (available on all channels) that adds some important fixes and a couple of new features. Streaming Preview First off, I fixed the Streaming Preview for everybody. Every time I fixed it to work with The Archive, I broke it for Drafts, and so on. I’m certain I’ve…

  • I’m excited to offer the next giveaway, 3 licenses ($9.99 value each) for TableFlip. TableFlip makes Markdown tables from structured data like CSVs, allowing you to use a spreadsheet-like interface to edit tables, and providing plain text for your document. It seamlessly provides table editing within any editor. It’s truly a missing link for Markdown…
