🎉 Sooo, I've been working on something fun, and I’m super excited to share it with you all! 🎉 Meet PopLight – my first-ever Mac menu bar app! It’s a tiny little dot that tells you if you’re actually connected to the internet.

Overhead at a SF cafe: "What's Windsurf?" "It's like Cursor… but the founder walked away from generational wealth for his employees." It’s easy to laugh or correct. But that's what I love about Silicon Valley.
