And to make the screenshots I open sourced my little tool that I used to make them. Open to PRs if you want more sizes supported too. github.com/ryleyherring...

30.01.2026 02:40 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Itโs a completely different paradigm tbh. Itโs not like a regular layout or update system so it took a bit of learning. Tiling is different but it makes sense now. Worth it for a fun subject, not sure what to do next but this is at least a fun little game to start out. ๐

Anyone is welcome to try it here, but it's just a love letter to the old ti83 game I used to play (with some added fun things like ipad keyboard support haha). testflight.apple.com/join/TR72aucv

There are 1000 app store screen creators but I thought I could make a really simple one for my really simple apps and the corner radius with the device outline is killing meeee
25.01.2026 01:18 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Oh no, another update. Letter Linker has a new daily puzzle feature. Minor update, but now the web version daily game matches the app version. ๐ #indiedev #ios #wordgame

22.01.2026 01:20 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0One of my goals was to finally make a website for all my apps, side projects, etc. 3 weeks into the year and I did it (it wasn't that bad; mostly just migrating from free hosting via github pages haha).
Next up is to learn how to make an app on atproto. Read too many blogs to not at least try.
And a little guilt trip if/when you donโt. ๐

12.01.2026 05:45 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Agreed. I think the ecosystem would exist if we could customize our watch faces in the same way as Pebble did, thatโs all.
However, part of its success is likely due to its openness to hacking. Wish Nike had let us hack the fuel band back in the day too like Pebble.
I look forward to your take!
Paging @chriswu.com haha. The most vocal among us for wanting fun watch faces.
