About Dominikkoch
I built a small Braille loader for our AI chat at Notra, because a regular spinner felt a little too boring. Thank you to all my sponsors for supporting my work!. TLDR: If you only want the component and use it in your app, here's the command to add it:. To make it more interesting, I wanted a cool loading animation. Braille is used in the real world for blind people to be able to read text.
About Trace
A macOS menu-bar app that turns any conversation into a clean markdown transcript, with an optional on-device summary. Runs a local speech model entirely on your Mac, in dozens of languages. The moment is pinned to your transcript at the exact timestamp. Trace provides you with clear markdown transcripts and summaries that you can use anywhere. Either copy the markdown from Trace directly or have it place the file anywhere in your filesystem. Trace can also send files directly to Obsidian, Bear, Drafts or Things with a button press.
