I shared a quick preview of an app I was building recently, and it’s in a pretty good state right now, so I thought it was a good time to share more information.
In short, it’s a Micro.blog client for Mac.
To go into more detail, it’s a way for me to use Micro.blog that tries to focus more on publishing, and less on scrolling. It’s intentionally slow, and “misses” a few features.
There are four tabs on the right of the app:
- WRITE - Write new posts, micro posts, keep drafts, and also reply to other posts.
- TIMELINE - Latest posts.
- MENTIONS - Latest mentions.
- PROFILE - My latest posts.
Note each one only says “latest”. This is because this app does not have any pagination or way to scroll through older content. All you can do is refresh. Right now that’s intentional, but I may be more flexible in the future.
I don’t know if I will ever release this, for now it will sit as my personal client. I’m not sure the tradeoff of polish, support, and distribution nonsense is worth it right now.
it’s being developed solely with Claude Code. I’ve worked on a few project documents, skills, and processes for this project. I feel like I’m at a point with Claude now where I can first design a product, breakdown a project into tasks, and then tackle them one at a time. I’m working on this at work as well, so I’ll probably write more about this when it’s been tested more.
Anyway, here are some screenshots of the app:
