iOS Dev Tools: MistKit, Swift Scribe, cmux
The best tools at your fingertips.
Hey! 👋
A few updates!
First, I worked on a website redesign over the weekend - new website here!
Second, you or a friend can now easily submit a new tool here!
And lastly, new things are coming soon - partnerships, deals, collaborations, and more.
If you’re a developer or work at a company and want to partner in any way, feel free to reach out.
I’m open to exploring new opportunities. 😎🤘
Let’s connect on X (ex-Twitter) & LinkedIn! 🤝
Own Your web2app Funnel and Get Paid in Days
web2wave lets subscription apps sell on the web first: users complete a quiz flow, pay, then download the app with an active subscription. The sale closes before install, so you don’t pay 15-30% app store fees on it.
Get paid in 1-2 days instead of 30+, for much faster cash flow.
Build the full funnel with the no-code editor, or in a minute with Wavy AI or the web2wave MCP.
Ship A/B tests and cancellation flows without waiting on app releases.
Keep full web-side tracking and UTM attribution, even post-ATT.
The widest payment coverage in web2app: direct integrations with Paddle, Stripe, Solidgate, FastSpring, Zotlo, Unlimit, Xsolla, PayPal, Billerix, and 100+ more via Primer.

cmux
A Ghostty-based macOS terminal with vertical tabs and notifications for AI coding agents.
Why you will like it:
Panes get a blue ring and tabs light up when coding agents need your attention.
See all pending notifications in one place and jump to the most recent unread.
Split a browser alongside your terminal with a scriptable API ported from agent-browser.
Sidebar shows git branch, linked PR status and number, working directory, listening ports, and the latest notification text. Split horizontally and vertically.
Runs Claude Code’s teammate mode with one command. Teammates spawn as native splits with sidebar metadata and notifications. No tmux required.
Import cookies, history, and sessions from Chrome, Firefox, Arc, and 20+ browsers so browser panes start authenticated.
IAXT - Monitors AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex by locally recording commands, file changes, and system actions. Review activity logs, spot unusual behavior, and keep your AI workflows secure.
WhatCable - A macOS menu bar app that tells you exactly what each USB-C cable plugged into your Mac can do, and why your Mac might be charging slowly.
Mimer - A developer-focused clipboard manager. It remembers everything you copy, offers powerful context-aware transformations, supports advanced search, and stores your clipboard history encrypted locally.
CaffeineTimer - Keeps your Mac awake with a lightweight countdown timer. Set a duration, track the remaining time, and let your Mac return to its normal sleep settings automatically when the timer ends.
