For the past month or two, I've been working on some pretty complex logic to support caret navigation and text selections across multiple sequential `NSTextView`s in #AppKit.

I need this functionality for my block-based notes app, where each block lives inside its own text view. #dev

I FINALLY have `NSTextAttachmentViewProvider` working in my native #macOS notes app! 🎉
This means I can now display interactive #SwiftUI views inside an `NSTextView`. Notice how I’m embedding an image directly into the textview, which the user can click to show the image in a popup. #dev

I finally figured out a solution to fix the many issues I had with my approach for the editor 😅

Basically, I was using an independent and separate `NSTextView` inside of each block. For example, if I had two text blocks, it would be two separate `NSTextViews`.

I added a new image popup to my #macOS notes app 🚀

Simply click on an image, and it will open the image in a popup with a blurry and slightly dark background. I think it looks beautiful 🤩
Also added a subtle fade-out effect to the note content right below the tabs at the top.

Funny how in autumn I get way more productive. I just code all the time 😂 And besides coding, I walk the dog 🐕‍🦺

The weather outside is cold and it’s raining 🌧️ Not very fun to be outside this time of the year…

Importing images and videos is now working in my notes app 🚀
But it's not quite perfect yet! There's still more work to do 💻

I changed the UI a bit for my native #macOS notes app 🚀

Now the note documents are displayed inside what looks like a page. I personally really like the design, but it’s just an option the user can toggle. If disabled, the note shows without the page outline. #dev #Swift #AppKit

I'm doing an internship for my Software Engineering degree this fall semester.

One of my tasks is to develop a widget that clients can embed on their websites using a simple `<script>` tag. That tag should fetch a JavaScript file from our server that contains all the logic.

The collapsing and uncollapsing folder functionality is now working. #dev #swift

This problem has been bugging me for the whole day…

I’d like to make the selected row item stand out by adding a custom background color and corner radius, instead of using the default styling.

I improved the tab bar to switch views in the sidebar.
Additionally, the search functionality now works quite well. I implemented it so that the letters matching the search query will be highlighted.

I had to switch from wrapping everything in a Button to using a ZStack instead.

I could not get the dragging functionality to work when using the Button, but now, at least it sort of works. The UX is still a bit rough.
