The first update for Actioneer has been released. Here's what's new:

• Workflows refresh in the background so newly-dispatched runs appear automatically.
• Reduced API usage and fewer rate-limit hits with ETag-based caching — lists load faster and your quota lasts longer.
• The app remembers the repository you were viewing between launches.
• Better diagnostics and reliability for smoother everyday use.

This week I've released a new version of CompareShots. Nothing special, just updated the user interface to support Liquid Glass. Also, sharing the result image will not capture UI elements anymore.

Hard to believe, but this year CompareShots turns 10 years old. Time runs fast.

Actioneer is a native GNOME desktop client for GitHub Actions. It combines a GTK4/libadwaita interface with a Tokio-powered API client so you can browse repositories, inspect workflow runs, watch job logs, and receive notifications without leaving your desktop.

Key features

• Browse your GitHub repositories and view Actions workflows and recent runs quickly.
• Inspect run status (success, failure, queued, in progress) with clear badges and counts.
• View job logs: download and preview run logs for quick troubleshooting.
• Dispatch workflows, cancel running workflows, and re-run failed runs directly from the app.
• Favorites and quick search let you focus on the repositories and workflows that matter most.
• Desktop notifications for run completions and failures so you never miss important results.
• In-memory caching and efficient refresh make the app responsive while respecting GitHub rate limits.
• Secure authentication using OAuth, tokens are stored securely in keyring.

Acntioneer for Linux is an open source project, source code is available on GitHub.

A new version of CompareShots has been released. It's a simple app I wrote years ago to compare two images.

The new version 1.6 has been rewritten in SwiftUI. And I've implemented a couple of ideas from app reviews that a user suggested.

What's new:

• Choose your view: Easily switch between aspect fill and aspect fit with a new button.
• Move your images: In aspect fill mode, use two fingers to reposition images for the perfect comparison.
• Faster setup: Select up to two images at once for side-by-side comparison.
• Expanded language support and improved accessibility.
• Various bug fixes and performance enhancements for a faster, more reliable app.
• Various bug fixes and performance improvements.

Spent some more time on HTMLEditor for SwiftUI. There are significant performance improvements in the new version 1.0.3 (thanks to Claude Code).

Recently, I've implemented a feature that I wanted to add to the CouchDB Swift client for a long time. It's Mango Queries support. Finally, it is done in 2.3.0. Feels like the last remaining big feature.

Changelog:

• Introduced a robust and type-safe MangoQuery API for building complex selectors, projections, sorting, and pagination in CouchDB.
• Added support for specifying indexes via useIndex in queries to optimize performance.
• Added first-class support for uploading, downloading, and deleting document attachments (files/images).
• Comprehensive Attachments API test suite ensures reliability for file operations.
• Added models and API for creating, listing, and managing Mango indexes (MangoIndex, IndexDefinition).
• Tutorial and code samples for creating indexes are now included in documentation.
• Added support for CouchDB Mango _explain endpoint via MangoExplainResponse to inspect how queries are executed and which indexes are used.
