Been building out this application with some features I’ve always wanted in other readers. Like that experience shown when viewing comment threads and some others. Few more key components are left, like accounts and mod view.
But was wondering what everyone’s thoughts are and whether they like this design approach.
Sleek! Feels focused on the actual content so, that’s a good one in my books. Font alternatives/options might help for more content on the screen (compact feels easier to handle for me as there is less scrolling).
Happy coding!
Alternative font systems is interesting. What font do you have in mind? I could add a settings option to customize fonts and/or font sizes. For the compact feel how many posts would that be per page? On maybe a iPhone 13 Max screen.
And thanks for the feedback!
For fonts, not really picky, like Roboto works well with web renders. But my point is that there should be font size options like small/large etc. I find it working well on Memmy app.
7-8 posts on iPhone XR (my testing phone, I don’t have the 13).
Oh yeah, definitely can try the font sizes. It should also make things dynamically resize properly to your taste
Yes! Enthusiastically yes!
We will watch your career with great interest.
Awesome, thinking of creating/setting up testflight this week
Could be interesting to see the macOs render. We’ve seen dozens of iOS clients already, I haven’t seen any macOs desktop one
The design isn’t up to date. But, I sorta liked the idea of keeping it compact but each post and comment thread can open into separate windows if you want to keep something alive while doing something else. What do you think about this approach vs. a normal sized window/resizable window with a custom MacOS experience.Edit: To be honest, I’ll definitely make it resizeable and mybe the tab bar moves to the left side so the main window feels more “Mac App Like”
Hey there, I finally feel the application has reached a stable state I pushed details and download for the macOS app in this open source repo: https://github.com/neatia/Loom . Feel free to let me know what you think!
That’s actually the most unique browser for comments I have seen.
I would definitely be testing this out on release.
Good work!
