Mac Duo

What it does

A macOS app that turns your display into frosted glass as you close the lid. Driven by the hinge sensor, so it moves at the speed of your hand.

Close your MacBook and the display lifts away as a pane of frosted glass. It moves at the speed of your hand. Stop, and it stops. Open it again and the whole thing retraces itself. Pay once. Yours on up to 5 Macs. No account, no licence key. A pane of frosted glass, hinged along the bottom edge of your display and moved by your lid. The idea comes from the fold on iPhone Duo. The glass is modelled — it lifts, leans and catches the light — rather than painted over a screenshot. The fold reads the lid-angle sensor directly. Move slowly and it moves slowly.

  Resurf▲301

  Hi HN folks, Deep here. I am a design engineer and I have been building Resurf for the past 4 months. Resurf is a local first Mac app for quickly capturing notes, thoughts, ideas, inspiration, links, and files like PDFs and images without switching context. As a design engineer who cares a lot about craft, I built resurf because my “stuff I want to keep” was scattered across tabs, different apps, notes, screenshots, random folders, and I kept losing good references.
