Tock - A super-minimal, keyboard-driven macOS menu bar timer

Tock is a lightweight macOS menu bar timer built for keyboard-first workflows. It lives in the menu bar, supports natural-language time entry, and intentionally limits you to a single active timer. No dashboards, queues, or upsells. Tock uses macOS system colors, adapting to light and dark mode and modern system materials like Liquid Glass. It is free and open source, with configurable shortcuts, tones, notifications, and interface details like button size and brightness.

Best Remote - A curated reference about today's top remote companies.

Best Remote is a collection of resources about today's top remote companies, organized in a clean, consumable and fun way. I've been doing a lot of research on remote companies for my next job opportunity, and it's been a useful exercise collecting it in one place. I think this may help others who are interested in remote work or organizations.

Material Design Palette Generator - Get perfect Material Design palettes from any hex color.

Google's official palette generator is buried deep within the Material docs, and is hidden from search engines, making it difficult to discover.

To make it a little easier to use, Kuali forked it and added some minor improvements. We did not change the way colors are derived.

Now there's a proper app you can bookmark. Enjoy!
