    I ported Quake 1 to the Apple Watch, building on top of existing ports for iOS and Mac. Some features: * uses Quake SW renderer + blitting to WatchKit surface (~60 fps, 640x480, larger res can run on lower framerate, tested up until 1024x768) * touch + gyro + digital crown controls * new AVFoundation audio backend (quake to Watchkit audio buffer copy logic), as Watchkit does not support CoreAudio * high pass audio filter to remove clicking on Watch speaker for some of the low frequency quake .wav samples * some smaller modifications and code updates to glue Quake 1 c code to Objective C and…

    Hi HN We're Vitalik (Ex-Bolt) and Stas (Ex-Grammarly, Wix) We build a MacOS vibecoding tool for native Swift iOS apps, that replaces Xcode for non-developers. Features: - Project Creation agent makes a real Xcode project in the background. - Design Agent creates design system using SwiftUI (supports glassmorphism ) - Coding Agent is quite efficient with caching and parallel tool calls. - The app gets build on your mac using iOS simulator and runtime, any bugs are passed back to coding agent. Requirements: - You still need an Xcode on your machine, but don't need to open it. Website:…

    A couple of months ago, I built this app to help identify people stuck under rubble. First responders have awesome tools. But in tough situations, even common folks need to help. After what happened in Myanmar, we need something like this that works properly. It has only been tested in controlled environments. It can also be improved; I know BLE is not _that_ effective under rubble. If you have any feedback or can contribute, don't hold back.

    We at Emerge Tools (YC W21) recently released open source Hacker News apps for both iOS and Android. The apps use the latest SwiftUI and Compose frameworks and are entirely native. Our goal is to help dogfood our products, but more importantly our team just enjoys reading HN every day and wanted an app to hack on and call our own. :) We are still missing some features but should otherwise be pretty solid. And open to any contributions. iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hacker-news-by-emerge/id674092... Android:…
