Hey everyone, I am Vajrang, a first-year CS student in Bangalore. I started learning JavaScript a few weeks ago and built Sonara as my way of actually learning it — one feature at a time, six versions so far. It is free and open source, Mac only for now (Apple Silicon). Quick note: the app is unsigned since I cannot afford an Apple developer certificate yet, so before the first launch run `xattr -cr /Applications/Sonara.app` in Terminal. The README walks through it. I would love your honest feedback. What is missing? What feels broken? What would make you actually keep it in your dock? I read everything and I am still learning, so do not hold back. Repo:
