Gramola, a CoverFlow-style music dock for macOS
I'm a 23yo solo dev from Spain with a passion for UI/UX and I built Gramola, a music dock for macOS that is there when you need it. No more opening a music app to change what you're listening to; just move your mouse to the edge of the screen, and all your music is there in a gorgeous CoverFlow style, or ready to be instantly searched. Fully usable with a mouse, but also fully usable with keyboard, accessibility built in, and both Spotify and Apple Music support as well as local tracks via the Music app. Free to try for 7 days! I would love to know what you think :) Please feel free to…

This app is great. Super slick UI/UX and I don’t have to interface at Spotify’s bloated UI much anymore. There are a few bugs to iron out, and the developer is super responsive and fixes them quick.

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…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
