I make it easier and faster for you to write high-quality software.
LIVEstep is a GNUstep desktop on a FreeBSD live CD, and it comes with the GNUstep developer tools including ProjectCenter. This video is a “Hello, World” walkthrough using ProjectCenter on LIVEstep. PC is much more influenced by the NeXT Project Builder than by Xcode, so it might look a little weird to younger eyes.
Here’s what I’ve been working on (with others, of course) since February.
You may remember in July I updated the open source Bean word processor to work with then-latest Xcode and macOS. Over the last couple of days I’ve added iCloud Drive support (obviously only if the app is associated with an App Store ID, but everyone gets the autosave changes), and made sure it works on Big Sur and Apple Silicon.
Alongside this, a few little internal housekeeping changes: there’s now a unit test target, the app uses base localisation, and for each file I had to edit, I cleaned up some warnings.
Developers can try this new version out from source. I haven’t created a new build yet, because I’m still in the process of removing James Hoover’s update-checking code which would replace Bean with the proprietary version from his website. I’ll create and host a Sparkle appcast for automatic updates before doing a binary release, which will support macOS 10.6-11.1.
