Roadmap

  • Create the first prototype with TouchBar in Storyboard
  • Put in stripe menu on startup the application
  • Find how to simulate real buttons like brightness, volume, night shift and etc.
  • Time in touchbar!
  • First the weather plugin
  • Find how to open full-screen TouchBar without the cross and stripe menu
  • Find how to add haptic feedback
  • Add icon and menu in StatusBar
  • Hide from Dock
  • Status menu: "preferences", "quit"
  • JSON or another approch for save preset, maybe in ~/Library/Application Support/MTMR/
  • Custom buttons size, actions by click
  • Layout: [always left, NSSliderView for center, always right]
  • System for autoupdate (https://sparkle-project.org/)
  • Overwrite default values from item types (e.g. title for brightness)
  • Custom settings for paddings and margins for buttons
  • XPC Service for scripts
  • UI for settings
  • Import config from BTT

Settings:

  • Interface for plugins and export like presets
  • Startup at login
  • Show on/off in Dock
  • Show on/off in StatusBar
  • On/off Haptic Feedback

Maybe:

  • Refactoring the application on packages (AppleScript, JavaScript? and Swift?)
