Flutter will have native support for multi window. Before that, i used desktop_multi_window, just yesterday i implemented with this package the feature, cause i couldn't wait 😅 Suddenly an update, after 10 months was done, 0.3.0 was released, also yesterday 😂 So i migrated...

Newest update for stepmat is coming. Revamped the reward system. Now u don't use hearts but steps, motivating you to do more steps 😁

Sometime i have the urge to build really quickly something so its out of the system. Now i am spinning up a small habit tracking app, which is more like a tally? without the pressure of keeping a streak or something, just logging stuff. Custom Units, and stats and nothign more.

stepmat has not its one landingpage :D stepmat.app

Are there people who just want to track stuff, in a way daylio, bearable and habtitkit does it? But not in a habit way but just remembering, and thinking when was the last time I did...this and that. With some stats Is there a need. Like an alternative without mood or anything

Next steps of redesigning the reward system from my steps app. Updated the reward bottom sheet with history and a small "heat map" card. What do you think? Any improvements?

Focuslist now supports 16kb pages. required by google play. here is a small blogpost how i manged to migrate open.substack.com/pub/szanik/p...

Multiple Gradle errors, and one problem with one depeendency. one emulator doesnt work anymore (i guess because its x86???) but now i can start everything again. juhu

So Vs Code deinstalled itself, which is interesting. One of the emulator wont work anymore and now gradle problems 🫠

Android 16kb page update for my free app "focuslist" here we go :D. Lets see how it goes

Beim ARD auf Twitch wurde zuletzt auf Bürgergeldempfänger:innen eingedroschen. Kurz 2 Cent dazu. Aus linksphilosophischer Sicht ist die Behauptung, das Bürgergeld sei „zu hoch“, weniger eine ökonomische Aussage als ein politisches Instrument.

Newest indie log is there. Talking a little bit about stepmat newest updates blog.szanik.dev/stepmat-plan...

Upsidoo, forget that i had a producthunt launch yesterday 😂🤣 It's about my Smart Break reminder, Pausitive. Checkiout if you care about your health producthunt.com/products/pau... via @producthunt.bsky.social

Is ai the death of knowledgable human? Saw a thread of people complaining that people don't fact check chatgpt and repeat false Infos. And loosing the ability to think for themselves And I was wondering if one day those false Infos will train a dumber gpt...

Make steps get rewarded with pizza. Making good progress with the revamp of the reward system in stepmat Lots of things still to do tho :)

ok made 1-2 weeks progress in a day and a half :D Mostly database stuff but quite happy that the migration worked flawlessly

Have a reward system in Stepmat so peoople get motivated to make more steps, be more active. will revamp it. it doenst motivate me either. will be step based, and will work more like an item system in games, lets see. claude said made an 8 weeks plan. hope for 2 :D

pausitive.app Tried some new og images. not sure if its good but i guess better then not to have any :D

Exactly this

Any good subreddits for app feedback?

First time ever at a fair for work, feels like stepping into a weird new universe where I have zero clue what I’m supposed to do at any of the other booths.😵‍💫 I am not at all interested in what other do, just the feedback from customers and thats it

We went from 'don't trust everything you read on Wikipedia' to 'let me ask this hallucinating robot for medical advice' 💀

I almost burned out juggling my dev job and side projects like pausitive.app... If you’re a full-time dev, side projects can sneak up on you It’s easy to overdo it if you’re not careful

Anyone at the IBC Amsterdam this year? What will you present or excited about?

just published my second indielog. its about my new app pausitive and why i buid it blog.szanik.dev/indielog-2-pausitive-release/

🆕 Yeah, Pausitive is live 🆕 Say bye bye to Eye strain and unhealthy posture. Smart breakreminder, with idle detection, startup launch and a health score for sustainable screen usage pausitive.app

Pauses are productive. Helps u to focus on what is important and always have a fresh brain

Vibe coded a new tool: a free qr generator. It works nicely, will publish later 😄

i think the tool i can recommend most is @todoist.com Simple Todo but with the comments and subtodos its so strong. Actually my daily driver, cause i can just divide and conquer and add some notes to it. And of course the gamficition with karma points is motivating 🎲

Man non-smartwatches are crazy. Recently searched for one as a present, nothing expensive but duuude prices have an insane range🤯 It's a crazy market, who are the customers of such expensive watches which really only show time ? I get design cost a lot but some are >2000$

Trying more Content generation, maybe in the future also some vlogs. But right now my first indielog blog post. still a rookie :D inspired by @devaslife.bsky.social and @roehl.dev blog.szanik.dev/building-pau...

Pauses are productive. Keeping ur mind sharp and help with eye strain. Try to look outside after every 20min for 20 seconds. your future you will thank you

Newest update online for stepmat, only took 3 days of google play store: play.google.com/store/apps/det… Now u can connect with friend#buildinpublici#stepmatat

Coworking Space today, quite the nice view and got some real good input frome the coworkers 😁

Found out about www.photopea.com super cool tool to quickly trim and cut images. Generated an icon for my upcoming app and removed the background with it and exported it in different sizes i needed. Can recommend. 😄

Relaunched Stepmat on @uneed.best thanks to an offer from @tsanlis.bsky.social on x Store Update still processing... But did add somecool stuff to the app like connection with friends, theme selectors and several ui changes. Vote up if u have time :) www.uneed.best/tool/stepmat...

Made a free tool that lets u help making decisions: szanik.dev/decide It helped me to find a name for my app. Its a game where ur options compete with each other in random battles. U need to decide who win and climb up the latter. It makes also a ranking for you :D

Not a fan on GPT-5 for coding. Didn't aligned with the existing code. made prefixes diffently and made its own thing and did not tried to seemlessly integrade to the codebase. Honestly just was one try but for now i feel like sticking to sonnet 4.

Working on the timeline. Looks like this now. Not happy about the height of the hours tho. also not sure how to adjust it because the entries need some minimum space... maybe hide entries when they are <5min? #buildinpublic #flutter

Honestly in certain situations i struggle myself , if i should start answering a question by yes or no. For whatever reasons. 😂But i would have started this sentence with a No:

I really like what the angular team did with signals. Need to write an TextEditor in an Angular Library. Could Completly get rid of ngAfterViewInit b using viewChild and effects. That's so amazing 🔥

Nice, Can now send notifications via #flutter #buildinpublic health focused breaktimer gets better and better :D. Used: flutter_local_notifications for the notifications

is there a #flutterfriday or something or #flutter tag for recommending stuff? today i found out about launch_at_startup by lijy91 (on twitter) and it just works ✨ 5min for implementing the whole feature with a quick test on windows, so amazing 😄

Building a timer app, to help me developing my apps in a healthy way and not pay with my health. for example my eyes :D Using signals for flutter and its super amazing cant wait to show more progress #buildinpublic

Right now i am building always StepMat in the morning. And then working full time. It's hard on my eyes, thats why I am currently building an flutter timer app to integrate some pause, basically breaktimer.app with some health features 👀

Mornging progess on a sunday 😀 Next Thing i want or StepMat is a Social Feature, so currently working on the Social Screen. Currently looking nice, first draft:

As a fulltime dev its super hard to develop an app and also in the free time. Had trouble making progress after work, but i found a solution for me. And its just doing the progress in the morning🌅. doesnt matter how much, but just a bit in the morning before work.

Coming from angular. isn't get_it combined with signals the best thing for flutter dev? Going to try this out, hope it feels like home :D

Man, tried vibe coding and sure its a mess. Refactoring stuff and now back to just normally programming with an ai componion by my side. Feels more that i lern somethign and know how everything works. Last bit gets easily lost with vibe coding.
