Hey everyone!!! I'm Ethan – maker of KanbanMail, Code The Web, Maker.rocks and now Makerlog Menubar!!
Makerlog Menubar is a super fast way to log your tasks to Makerlog, right from your menubar 🔥
🤔 What is Makerlog?
Makerlog is an awesome platform by @ftxrc where you can log your tasks openly and transparently! For example, here's my profile. If you don't have an account you can sign up, it's free! Then start logging tasks straight from your menubar by downloading Makerlog Menubar 😀
👨💻 Why I made this
I really love transparency, I'm not sure why anyone wouldn't do everything transparently by now. It increases your following, visitors and user count. I log every single task I complete every day on Makerlog, in fact I currently have a 141 day streak! I wanted it to be even easier to log my tasks to Makerlog, so I would never put if off for forget. So I created Makerlog Menubar! Now I can log my tasks with just a few keypresses 😁
Here are some cool features:⚡️ Log from anywhere
Just type Shift ⌘ M from anywhere on your computer to show/hide Makerlog Menubar! It’ll give you a huge productivity boost 🔥
📎 Attach images
Simply drag or paste any image straight into the Makerlog Menubar app to attach it to your log!
🌓 Dark mode
Makerlog Menubar will automatically change between light and dark mode based on your operating system's settings!
🧠 Hashtag autocomplete
Makerlog Menubar suggests hashtags for you! When a suggestion appears, just press the right arrow key to accept it. If there are multiple matching hashtags, it calculates the most relevant one based on your previous hashtag usage.
Dude, huge congrats on the launch!
I've watched as you build this product from the ground up using the Makerlog API. It's lightning fast and a really good workflow improvement - I don't have to switch windows to log anymore! 😁
Keep it up man!
@ftxrc Thanks Sergio!! I really appreciate the help with the API, and also with the nice subdomain! And of course for making Makerlog in the first place 😍

This is awesome! Now everyone who uses Makerlog can Log their task without opening going through the browser! Congrats on the launch!
@wernminlim Yep! It takes away a mental barrier to logging your tasks. I still go to the website for notifications and to see what others are up to, of course 😄
I've had an extra tab open for Makerlog for months and now I can finally close it. This menubar makes it incredibly easy to log your tasks done for the day.
Love the ease of use, saves time opening the website. Love the addition of the hotkey. Does not have settings tho, can't shutdown the app.
Pros:
Ease of use
Cons:
No settings

Ethan, thank you SO much for making the Makerlog Menubar. I can't imagine logging tasks any other way! What a time waste it would be to open the website each time I wanted to log something. Let alone how distracting it would feel. The Menubar blends in with the rest of the interface and is so discrete and functional! <3

Makes so much sense - don't need to go to another device, open a new tab, open a separate app or anything.
Pros:Amazing, don't need to go out my way to log anything
Cons:----
