- 🍂 🤧 Summer is over and I quickly caught the first cold of the season.
- 🎓 ⏳ Both our kids are in school now. Makes you realize (yet again) how quickly time passes on.
- ✨ 🤓 Got started with Josh Comeau's new course Whimsical Animations in early access. Excited to learn how to animate SVGs. He's such a great teacher.
- 🤖 💻 Working on various Statamic projects. Still my favorite environment to build websites. Using Claude Code to design and prototype an app interface directly as a React app has been a lot of fun, too.
🖥️ Apps & Tools I’m currently enjoying
- Obsidian has found its way back into my digital life. The idea of being able to use Claude Code to interact with my notes was so compelling that I had to give it another try. Writing about this is on my roadmap.
- I switched this blog to Ghost and I really like the experience a lot so far. Synaps Media seems to be a good choice for EU based hosting at a very competitive pricing.
- Monologue is still my most used daily helper across everything I do on my Mac. Voice input has become central to my work that it's painful to work in environments where I cannot talk.
- Switched back to Sketch for personal projects, considering to cancel my Figma plan.
