As much as it's nice to see people experiment more now that AI makes it easier, it's kinda sad that I don't see much knowledge sharing. No walkthrough of their process, implementation, etc. It's all just "look at this cool video of what I built" and that's it... 😞

There’s definitely more experimenting, but I don’t think deeper dives are dead and gone. I posted a bit of a behind the curtains thing super recently. Everything I’ve seen from you has been insanely cool, it would be awesome to see more posts of how you do it too 😃

When I started working on wm, I quickly learned that the OS is why window managers feel wrong on mac. Mac is not a cooperative OS; it has opinions about where windows can move! To address this, I designed wm to learn how the OS behaves and adapt to it. Here's a comparison using learned Mac rules.

Part of it for me is I keep wanting to spend some time making detailed explainers of stuff, but the barrier to entry is so low to experiment on something new that my attention is quickly stolen. Maybe we need even more conferences now to force us into spending time communication/collaboration.
