Open-Source Apps

The Gist

Visit Github Page

$ git clone git://github.com/sdegutis/The-Gist

A simple-yet-powerful twitter client for the Mac. Inspired by an idea by Brent Simmons, The Gist was intended to be simple and have one main focus: basically, a multi-account version of Twitterrific. However, the base has shown to be remarkably resilient and stable, and thus many features of Tweetie are creeping their way in.

  • Simple interface (ripped off from Tweetie)
  • Obnoxious creator (seriously.)
  • Great for learning Cocoa bindings

  • Simple interface (ripped off from Tweetie)

CocoaREST

Visit Github Page

$ git clone git://github.com/sdegutis/CocoaREST

CocoaREST is a Cocoa Framework that creates a seamless bridge between RESTful APIs and a Cocoa app. Comparable to MGTwitterEngine, CocoaREST allows developers to access any RESTful API (including Twitter and flickr) with little effort, via a thread-safe, asynchronous API that lets your user interface stay responsive to the user (ie, no spinning wheel of doom).

InspectorKit

Visit Github Page

$ git clone git://github.com/sdegutis/InspectorKit.framework

InspectorKit is both an Interface Builder plugin and Cocoa Framework which allows developers to extend functionality in their Mac apps by create professional-grade Inspector Panels directly inside Interface Builder with little effort at all.
