A while ago I had been working on a native Mac slack app. I was 70% complete but sidelined it. Should I pick it up again? Would ppl here be interested in paying for something like that? Here are some links to screenshots so you know its not just vaporware :)

- kitsunesoba 9y agoI believe it would get a fair amount of attention if it were open sourced. There's lots of Apple platform devs out there who'd love to have a more native Slack experience and would contribute to such a project in a heartbeat (myself included).
- NegativeLatency 9y agoI'd be interesting in working on that if you open sourced it!
- sovande 9y agoMost users will accept issues with their free program if the alternative is to pay. I'm pretty sure the message pane you have there is a WebKit controller so it is debatable how native this would be.
- harisamin 9y agoThere actually isn't any webkit here at all, except for the slack api oauth login. Everything is native. Trust me, I'm not faking this :)
- pdimitar 9y agoI'll easily pay you $30 once for it as long as it is open-source and has active commit log. Most of us tech folks hate abandonware, have that in mind.
