• Tell HN: My Favorite Tools

  A few apps that are a joy to use: https://ia.net/writer for writing. https://usecontrast.com/ for checking contrast. https://sipapp.io/ for picking colors. https://nova.app/ for editing code. https://cleanshot.com/ for screenshots. https://getpixelsnap.com/ for measuring elements on screen. https://netnewswire.com/ for reading things via RSS. https://panic.com/transmit/ for file transfers. https://usefathom.com/... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Ask HN: Best UI design courses for hackers?

  I think the best practical approach for designing UIs is to download (and buy) Balsamic[0] and use that to design UIs. Cut through the nonsense of colours and pixels in the first instance and just lay things out logically and simply. [0] https://balsamiq.com. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Build Products that don’t SUCK

  Create a low-fidelity mockup or wireframe of your MVP using tools like Balsamiq, Sketch, or Figma. Or use an easier-to-use tool like Uizard, which also has text-to-design capabilities. Source: 11 months ago

• Starting Design Work in a Spreadsheet

  Just for drawing mock app screens, I have found Balsamiq[0] to be pretty good (you can do a bunch of stuff with the trial version itself). Not affiliated with them in any way. [0]: https://balsamiq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Is there software for building out copywriting for a website?

  Balsamiq has been pretty good for me so far. It's super bare-bones so it's better for copy mockups than actual UX design. It's also a lot easier than Figma. Note that you don't have to use the default comic sans, but I do because it's funny. Source: over 1 year ago

• Apple Announces Changes to iOS, Safari, and the App Store in the European Union

  But developers can actually enlist their apps in both of these "stores" (setapp is subscription based) which probably increases their potential revenue. [0]: https://setapp.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Apple Rejects the Hey Calendar from Their App Store

  In a lot of neighborhoods that's exactly what it does. Also, you can shop for iOS apps in other places, like https://setapp.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• The End of the Subscription Era Is Coming

  Https://setapp.com is one example of a service that does bundling, albeit by offering what seems to be the full features of many things for a single subscription price (instead of your thought of a subset of features). It's not clear to me whether all of the apps offered are subscription-based, though. It's a model I'd be more willing to try than subscriptions to individual apps, although its OS and app offerings... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• PDF Reader Pro vs PDF Expert, Which is the best PDF editor to buy and why?

  I can't say that it's the best solution, but I use Nitro PDF from Setapp https://setapp.com/. Source: about 1 year ago

• If it goes somewhere, it’s a link. If it does something, it’s a button

  There's also Sizzy (https://sizzy.co). It's available standalone, but it's also included with a Setapp subscription (https://setapp.com — Mac app subscription service). - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
