I’ve been using Copilot for a couple of years, but mostly limited it to grunt work; auto-completing obvious code, filling out obvious patterns, and drafting comments (some of which I accept).

Recently I’ve been looking for an excuse to try out something more ambitious. More vibe-codey. Whatever the fuck that means.

Then it hit me. I built this website a few years ago with Jekyll and Bootstrap, which frankly are things I know little about. The world has moved on, but the website hasn’t.

This seemed like a perfect test case…

Today I’ve been looking at reviving a tool that I built a while ago, which automatically builds a Github Actions workflow file for a Swift package.

I’ve been working on a simple To-Do list manager, called The Stack.

In a way you could say that simplicity is the point of The Stack, but actually I think the point is “reducing anxiety”.

There are certain personal projects that feel like cliches, due to the tendency for any and every developer to want to embark on them.

A To Do list manager is a classic case.

Nevertheless… I find myself here.

TL;DR – use the winget method to install everything
