Kōtei 1.2 will bring the iOS 26 #6monthsworktofiguringouthowtoajustthelayout release… 😅
Currently waiting for review, should be there soon.

The first chapter of a series about my journey into software development is out!

“The Village, the MO5, and the Boy” is about growing up in rural France, discovering computers for the first time, and feeling that spark of curiosity that never really left me. ☺️

It lives only in the menu bar

Even after a couple of months using the beta, I was missing too much the launchpad (I’m part of the few), so I’ve created mine… and experimenting some tweaks. 😁

I think my favorite “looking glass” app icon for now is Flow, the pomodoro app. The specular effect on it fits just perfectly IMO. Love it!

Anyone figured out this mess on macOS 26 with the sidebars? Wherever I’m using TabView or NavigationSplitView it looks like this… 😥

I would like to suggest a change of name from macOS Tahoe for macOS Frankenstein… 😅

Tada!! 🎉

I don’t really understand why Apple didn’t get full in to making Icon Composer able to edit shapes as well. Anyway, I recommend to start playing with it because building a nice glass effect is tougher than it looks… 😖
(and more than ever, checking the in a real device is MANDATORY).

Also @helm-app.bsky.social saves me a LOT of time managing translations…

That was a productive Saturday morning… 😅

This Dynamic Island looks unfinished design in my opinion…. 🤨

Deep linking always felt like some kind of rocket science 🚀 (“how is this even supposed to work?!”)…
But this week? We’ve cracked it — and I’m super proud 😄

Kōtei 1.1.4 is live!
✨ You can now share nearby places
🌍 Featured places are now localized — more magic, closer to home.

With the job situation still going on, I’m struggling to be confident on myself. But those numbers are starting to look really great for a one guy project, right? These are the database entries per country and city on @koteiapp.bsky.social ☺️

This morning I played a bit with the @telemetrydeck.com API on my macOS Admin app… 😊
May 21, 2025 at 9:00 AM
I also like the work on the macOS admin app. It’s not because is stays private it doesn’t have to look good right? 😊

As designer, I’m never really satisfied when working on a logo for myself, always find something to change or a good reason for starting from scratch… So… this is the new logo for @koteiapp.bsky.social 🤓

…and also the new website: kotei.app
May 20, 2025 at 8:21 PM
I had a lot of fun working on these stickers… These will be available to all users with Kōtei 1.1 (as well as a lot of other stuff).

The Kōtei app (@koteiapp.bsky.social ) is live for just one day and these numbers are looking already super great. 😊

Our app just got rejected by the App Store 😅 So I’m going live on YouTube later today to share the full story, what went wrong, and what’s next.
Join me & let’s turn setbacks into good stories:

It’s time to share part of what I’ve been working on the past few months…
The beta is coming, I just need to finish some things, and it will be there. 😅
