made an app for my assistant 👀 calling it Luna L1 being able to take my agent with me feels super different from having it on my computer even made a custom "lunagotchi" for it 🥹

making these beautiful screenshots/videos is actually kind of annoying (i chain 2-3 tools together sometimes) making a small app that connects to the simulator directly (floating button on the side) loaded with my presets 👀 should i publish this? (will polish design)

pro tip: you can ask claude code to use ascii art to prototype layouts for you 👀 here is me using it to find a good layout to display the caloric deficit/surplus to users had it prototype in ascii before actually building it

been testing out the ios simulator inside claude code and it handles one of the biggest things missing with xcodebuildmcp which is MULTI TOUCH GESTURES 👏 so important when testing stuff like "testing reordering the task list" still a few bugs but this is a great addition and hopefully they improve on it will still be rocking xcodebuildmcp + computer use though until it stabilizes more also unsure how it handles logs so need to keep testing

Adding "menu scanning" into Amy 👀 honestly have never seen a calorie tracking app do this before sometimes i just want to scan the menu because it has such a good description of the food (better than a photo)

I'm sorry but screenshot apps feel stuck in 2018 😮‍💨 so i made one that's actually agent-first (literally no buttons 👀) oh and it uses your existing claude + codex sub hello moonjar 🌙

I'm surprised that NOBODY is talking about the anthropic agent sdk 👀 I spent a week building a custom agent using the framework and really think people are sleeping on how powerful it is went a bit more technical on this one but this stuff is so cool i thought it was worth it

YOU GUYS WIN Boop (my custom AI agent) is now OPEN SOURCE 🥳 I built this just for me but 700+ people commented on my last 3 videos asking me to open source it so here we are :) This is my first major open-source library so please forgive any rough edges or bad code 😅

I have never seen so much praise for an apps onboarding in my life 👀 Totally worth the extra 3 days and Cecilia absolutely hit a home run with the illustrations 🤌

A few weeks ago I built a SUPER powerful custom agent this week I decided to scrap it 😮 I rebuilt it from the ground up with a completely different form factor (iMessage) / architecture and for fun I added a powerful memory system that costs me $50/day to run 🫠 here is everything i learned

let’s normalize bringing craft and surprise into app building ✨ one small detail like this might not matter, but combine 10+ of these into your app and users can tell 👀

I asked Boris Cherny what his favorite claude code feature was he said it’s remote control BUT not using “/remote-control” 👀 Learned something new!

Good design can be the difference between 2K views and 1M views 👀 Luck/algorithms do play a part, but this has happened 10+ times to me over the last few years 😮‍💨

We NEED more financial transparency in the app building space especially when it comes to COSTS 🫠 Everyone talks about MRR and revenue but nobody talks about margins so here were mine last month 👀

i feel like i should gatekeep this but... i think consumers are about to start prioritizing apps that have good connectors into AI assistants mainly bc of the new siri update coming soon 👀 here is what i did this month to "future proof" my app to stay ahead
