Andwriter vs Day Showcase

Andwriter is a fast, clean text editor built for writing code, editing plain text, and keeping scratch notes close at hand. Designed for keyboard-driven work: - Open and edit common text and source files - Keep multiple tabs in a persistent session - Use familiar shortcuts for new files, open, save, find, command palette, and quick open - Navigate with line numbers, search, replace, and multi-cursor editing - Preview Markdown and HTML documents - Switch between editor themes and focused writer settings - Connect an optional AI assistant to OpenAI-compatible, Anthropic, or local Ollama-style backends Andwriter keeps the first version simple: open files, write, search, save, and return to your session quickly. It is built for developers, writers, and anyone who wants a quiet editor that feels close to a desktop code editor while staying native on Apple platforms.

Day Showcase is the demo app for Day (daybrite.dev), a framework for creating mobile and desktop apps in Rust. Each screen in the app is a demonstration of one part of the framework: Controls: buttons, switches, sliders, steppers, pickers, text fields, a multi-line editor, date and time pickers, keyboard focus, and pointer cursors. Layout: rows, columns, and layers under each fit policy, a split with a draggable divider, and a grid with spanning cells. Navigation & chrome: a push stack, tabs, menus and dialogs, the window toolbar, and a content list that opens each item in an editor. Data: a list and a tree over live models, and queries against a local store. Graphics & media: shapes, paths, gradients, and transforms on a canvas, animation, Lottie playback, bundled resources, media playback, a map, and a web view. Platform: battery and connectivity, accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer traces, HTTP requests, notifications and the app badge, speech and haptics, and files. App & tooling: localization, scripting, tweaks, a benchmark against SwiftUI, and crash reporting. The toolbar on every page has a code button that opens that page's Rust source on GitHub, so you can read the code beside the result. The star button pins a page to the top of the list, and the theme button switches the appearance. The app is translated into English, French, Arabic, and Simplified Chinese. Switching the language on the Localization page updates every page in place, and Arabic mirrors the layout. Day and this app are open source. The framework is at github.com/daybrite/day and the app's source is at github.com/daybrite/Day-Showcase. Each page in the app contains a link to the underlying source code.
