I guess they go with some liquid glass defaults and then introduce customization and fallbacks where it’s not optimal. That’s how I would do it. Overall I’m very excited what level of practical usability and beauty they can achieveπŸ€žπŸ˜…

Let's see how far we can push Dashgrid's real-time capabilities. Starting with 2s update interval. Spoiler: I'm surprised how usable it still is around 100ms.

Orbitals Writer is very fun (it still has some issues, which I hope to figure out in some smaller weekend sessions).
