Free, open-source native macOS client for di.fm
I built a menu bar app for streaming DI.FM internet radio on macOS. Swift/SwiftUI, no Electron. The existing options for DI.FM on desktop are either the web player (yet another browser tab) or unofficial Electron wrappers that idle at 200+ MB of RAM to play an audio stream. This sits in the menu bar at ~35 MB RAM and 0% CPU. The .app is about 1 MB. What it does: browse and search stations, play/pause, volume, see what's playing (artwork, artist, track, time), pick stream quality (320k MP3, 128k AAC, 64k AAC). Media keys work. It remembers your last station. Built with AVPlayer for…

What it does
native macOS menu bar app for DI.FM internet radio - drmikexo2/DIBar-macOS
A native macOS menu bar app for DI.FM and the whole AudioAddict radio family : JazzRadio, RadioTunes, ClassicalRadio, RockRadio, and ZenRadio. Built entirely in Swift. No Electron, no Chromium, no web views. It sits quietly in your menu bar using virtually zero CPU when idle and a few MB of RAM. DIBar uses AVPlayer for audio, MPRemoteCommandCenter for media keys, a hand-managed NSStatusItem with a SwiftUI panel for the interface, and the system SQLite for history. No runtime overhead from bundled browsers, and a single third-party dependency: Sparkle , the standard open-source updater for Mac apps. Releases are Developer ID signed and notarized by Apple, so there are no Gatekeeper hoops.…from github.com

Daft Music2025 · daftmusic.app · ▲276Some time ago I moved from Spotify to Apple Music for a few reasons. As someone who builds iOS and macOS apps, I quickly noticed how rough the Apple Music experience felt on Mac. It just wasn’t fun to use. So I decided to challenge myself and see if it was possible to build a full, complex, and performant Apple Music client using SwiftUI. At first, it went surprisingly well. SwiftUI made it easy to build out the main structure and experiment quickly. The UI came together nicely, and it was exciting to see how modern and flexible the framework could be. But the deeper I went, the more cracks…
A native macOS client for Hacker News, built with SwiftUIFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲265Hey HN! I built a native macOS desktop client for Hacker News and I'm open-sourcing it under the MIT license. GitHub: https://github.com/IronsideXXVI/Hacker-News Download (signed & notarized DMG, macOS 14.0+): https://github.com/IronsideXXVI/Hacker-News/releases Screenshots: https://github.com/IronsideXXVI/Hacker-News#screenshots I spend a lot of time reading HN — I wanted something that felt like a proper Mac app: a sidebar for browsing stories, an integrated reader for articles, and comment threading — all in one window.…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
