It's out :)

As always: there was absolutely NO AI used in the development of Cork, and we strongly reject AI in any capacity: corkmac.app/our-ai-stance/
Even the changelog is human-made
#macOS #buildinpublic #macdev #homebrew #CorkApp #antiai #NoAI #fuckai

Compiling Cork 2.0.1 now…
hora 1.0.32 is out.
New right sidebar with an Agenda widget — today and tomorrow at a glance. Pomodoro and Keyboard Shortcuts widgets too, on/off and reorderable in Settings › Sidebar.
⌥⌘I toggles the right sidebar, ⌥⌘S the calendar list.
hora Calendar now runs on macOS 15.
We launched on the newest macOS only. That was a mistake — plenty of Macs out there are a version or two behind, and now they can run hora too.
Omegabundle for Xojo 2026 is a limited time, multi-vendor bundle that ends in 6 days! Includes over $7,600 of the best 3rd-party tools, plugins, and resources for Xojo cross-platform development — all for a one-time price of $399.99. bit.ly/4iTkVDZ

Dev-log: a calendar could sit empty while every sync reported success.
We sent Google a sync token for a calendar we had never seeded. Google answered "nothing changed" — correctly. Nothing ever loaded.
Fix: no token until the calendar is seeded.
hora is Google Calendar as an actual Mac app.
→ work and personal accounts side by side
→ next meeting in the menu bar
→ Meet, Zoom and Teams one click away
→ shortcuts for people who take clicking personally
As I suspected, #McKinley’s floating palettes are polarising. (Although I’ve had more praise than complaints overall!)
Anyone used any great implementations of dockable palettes? (Adobe’s don’t count, I don’t think they’re great!)
I assumed most Mac users run the newest macOS. I build on a Mac, so obviously.
Then I looked at our site analytics: 60-70% of visitors were on an older macOS than we supported.
The people building software are not the people using it.
Downloading a calendar app is not using it.
You install it, connect an account, see your week — only then does anything happen. Everything between the download and that moment is where indie apps lose people.
That's the part I keep working on.
MCKINLEY IS OUT NOW!
McKinley is a Mac app for making SF Symbols, combining a vector editor, tools that understand symbol weights, smart preview, an export that skips the tedium of converting strokes to paths, and automatic Xcode asset catalog sync.
