# capjamesg[d] marksuth[d] is working on what I think is a multi platform Micropub client: IndiePass.
# capjamesg[d] I am unsure what stage it is at right now.
# cophee Very excited for it!!
# cophee Would absolutely pay for it on iOS considering how annoying the App Store is with publishing apps

petermolnar pcarrier[d] https://libreserver.org/epicyon/ might be able to do something like that for you.
# [snarfed] I was excited for IndiePass too, but he didn't end up sticking with it, no development there for years now. 🤷 https://github.com/IndiePass/indiepass

# cophee capjamesg[d] I did the thing with the now page!!
# cophee using plash =))
# cophee they have a really cool thing where you can add css
# cophee so i could hide the aside + header
# capjamesg[d] wing_wingpang_com_[d] Wow! I _love_ it!
# capjamesg[d] This is incredible.
# capjamesg[d] Websites as home screens!
# cophee capjamesg[d]: it's so fun!!!
# cophee sindre sorhus, the guy who made it makes a lot of free apps for mac
# capjamesg[d] wing_wingpang_com_[d]++
# IWDiscord <cophee>
# capjamesg[d] Ooh, what tool is that?
# cophee it's called plain text editor 😂
# cophee Also this one
# cophee for finder
# cophee honestly the hero we need but don't deserve
# cophee [edit] https://apps.apple.com/us/app/plash/id1494023538?mt=12
# capjamesg[d] I like simple text editors.
# capjamesg[d] I use Typora right now.
# cophee it's lovely!
# cophee very minimalist
# cophee does anyone have any fun little apps on mac that they recommend? :))
# capjamesg[d] I'm working on a HTML page to publish my blog posts from.
# cophee capjamesg[d]: Awesome!!!!
# capjamesg[d] My current publishing flow is to use GitHub, but it's getting a bit tedious.
# cophee i love how you build out the features you need on your site!!
# [Jo] Cool!!
# capjamesg[d] I _really_ need this 😂
# capjamesg[d] Because I often forget all the metadata I need.
# cophee i'd love to learn to program so that I can do cool stuff like this too =]
# cophee atm i only really do stylesheets :PP
# capjamesg[d] This page will be public!
# cophee capjamesg[d]: awesome!
# capjamesg[d] But you will not be able to create any content on my site, of course 😄
# cophee capjamesg[d]: 😂
# capjamesg[d] Let me publish this now.
# capjamesg[d] I want to figure out how to add a spell checker to it.
# cophee capjamesg[d]: that would be really cool
# cophee i just have grammarly/use browser spell checkers
# capjamesg[d] My current editor has a spellcheck so bad I'm not sure if it has one.
# capjamesg[d] My commit message:
# capjamesg[d] Fun thing: my editor doesn't support typing `p` because it triggers the penguin on my page. I need to fix that.
# capjamesg[d] (the editor on my website, that is)

# cophee capjamesg[d]: that's so funny
# cophee i love the penguin

# cophee capjamesg[d]: fabulous!
# capjamesg[d] This saves me so much time.
# capjamesg[d] It feels like magic ✨
# cophee Yes!!! Exactly how I felt after I got [Paul_Robert_Ll]'s IndieKit working
# cophee I just installed Omnibear
# cophee It's so handy!!! (I just replied to your post using it hehe)
# capjamesg[d] I'm making some edits to my tool to do some magic things.
# capjamesg[d] Like check if I leave a placeholder `[add image]` in my text 😄
# capjamesg[d] I sometimes forget to actually add the image.
# capjamesg[d] [tantek] This discussion may interest you re: posting interfaces.
# capjamesg[d] Yeah. I'm able to encode all my quirks that help me stay focused while writing but that also don't translate well to my website.
# capjamesg[d] I love the writing tool I use, Typora. But my publishing process was really not good.
# harbinger_of_decay capjamesg[d]: What static site generator are using? If you don't mind me asking
# capjamesg[d] harbinger_of_decay[d] It is custom-built.
# harbinger_of_decay capjamesg[d]: Oooh that's really cool!
# capjamesg[d] Yeah! The code isn't elegant, but it works well for my uses!
# harbinger_of_decay That's what matters though! How did you build it? How do you even begin to build something like that haha
