Well, this is a fun little experiment I did with Basil today. I wanted to see if I can have a "light source" that can change the shadow based on the gyro. In the video I just added a light source to drag it around to better show it. Would I ever release it, probably not 😂

Meet Basil 🌿 Because every good Pomodoro needs a little Basil. ⚡️ Neo-Brutalist design 🚫 App blocking 🎵 Immersive soundscapes 🎨 Bold, custom themes It was fun building this project. Thanks to @edpratti for helping me out with design! 💚 Link 👇

Made something yesterday, should I release it? 👀

✨ Preparing Twine v3.0 release ✨

Umm, I got a bit carried away building new stuff for Twine. Here is one more new feature, themes in the reader screen. App now offers 7 themes for the reader screen - Dynamic (match hero image palette) - Sepia - Solarized - Parchment - Midnight - Forest - Slate

✨New Twine feature✨ Not sure which feeds to follow? Twine now has a discovery section you can browse to get started. It will be shown during onboarding, when adding a feed, and in the main navigation if you just want to browse what's available.

Added a heat map in the stats page of Twine. Thoughts?

Planning to ship this in Twine, a native audio player for podcast feeds 👀
