Yeah will do that. Thanks!



This is very cool. I just installed it.

I was curious, can you speak to how this differentiates from https://getcommande.com/?


Both Slapdash and Command E can search apps, but Slapdash can do other things too:

* You can also write to applications, it's not just read-only (create docs, file issues, close tasks, upload files, etc.)

* You can browse the structure of applications in Slapdash (not just search them).

* You can build sophisticated queries (show all tasks open tasks, that mention this customer, render it as a list)

* We are client-agnostic. While we love our desktop client, you can also use Slapdash just in a browser window, or as a Chrome extension (and soon mobile).

* You can control your desktop computer too (launch apps, search local files, etc.)

* You can build your own custom commands and share them with others (this turns out to be quite fun)


That's really cool!

What's the process around adding new apps? Would one be able to integrate easily?

I built Quest https://github.com/hverlin/Quest during the lockdown to search content across several apps (Gmail, Jira, Confluence...) as I could not find one that would allow me to do this.


Quest looks cool. I just downloaded and started playing with it - well done.

Today, we write the integrations ourselves.

We will eventually open up our APIs so people can build their own integrations to extend Slapdash. If you have ideas or thoughts on what would be a good dev experience, feel free to reach out.


Awesome. Thanks for breaking it down.


Thanks, this is helpful! Can you do a similar pros/cons comparison with Akiflow?


Very cool! Sounds like you and I had the same thought. I built something very similar couple of months ago: https://www.quickviz.app/


I recently built a online text editor which lets you generate shareable documents with complex charts, graphs, mathematics, and more using the simplicity of Markdown.

https://quickviz.app/

It's built on top of the Pandoc, Graphviz, and MathJax


Great work. That will be very useful!


Thanks!

Eufy also offers a wired doorbell with local storage. It was also on sale for $99 over Thanksgiving weekend so I got one to try it out.


I'm thankful for having finally found a beautiful home that I could afford in a very populated city

I'm thankful for the birth of my beautiful, happy and healthy baby

Yes. I have a company issued 2018 MBP 2.6 GHz i7 & 16GB RAM but I prefer to do most of the dev work on my HEDT running Linux (Ubuntu 16.04), 4.0 GHz i7 & 32GB RAM.

It's way better at running Docker instances, a bunch of electron apps, and tons of Chrome tabs simultaneously without a hitch.


This is ingenious! Love the use of Google Street View.

Reminds me of a small project I put together which offered a reverse perspective of the ISS: http://www.loworbit.co/
