Apple Invited Me to WWDC for My Menu Bar App
Devly v2.1 updated with direct feedback from Apple engineers.
1The Birth of Devly
Devly is a menu bar app designed for developers, combining over 60 tools in one place. It offers JSON formatting, Base64 conversion, and more. An invitation to WWDC provided the developer with a significant opportunity to enhance the app.
2Collaboration with Apple
Meetings with Apple engineers shaped Devly's new version. This collaboration significantly improved the app's functionality and user experience. The developer incorporated direct feedback from Apple to refine the app.
3New Features
Devly v2.1 introduces Liquid Glass UI, quick switch (⌘P), and terminal integration. Users can now switch between tools instantly and access them directly from the terminal. All features run locally, ensuring privacy.
4Privacy and Cost
Devly does not track user data and requires no subscription. A one-time payment of $4.99 grants access to all features. This offers developers an affordable and secure solution for their daily tools.
5User Experience
The app can be used from the menu bar or in a standalone window. Users can quickly access frequently used tools like QR code generation and color conversion, streamlining their workflow.
6Contribution to Developer Community
Devly's update is a significant step in meeting developer needs. With Apple's support, the app aims to expand its toolset and functionality, providing even more value to the developer community in the future.
