I made Type Nine for iPhone, and have waited a long time for Apple to open up for doing it on the watch.

PS. I typed this under my desk!

It's surprising how far there is from discovery to production for these kinds of things. It's 14 years ago now that I designed the front cover for Advanced Energi Materials[1] wherein my friend described his similar discovery of the incredible properties of LiMnO4 with Carbon Nanotubes. Even though he had it working with measurable improvements in the 20-40x range he said it would take 10-20 years to reach a state for mass production.

Thanks a lot! I haven't done much on the marketing side, but I always felt it had great potential.

It needs a little tlc to align with the latest iOS update changes, but my time is too limited at the moment.

Shameless plug, but back in 2014 trying to play with swift I made Type Nine, and I'm still using it to this day[1]

I also did a few other experiments that I unfortunately haven't had time to explore further[2]

Indeed.. All those people that have kids but are not fit to be called a parent so they need the government to do their job!

If you're a parent then act like one. You're perfectly able to enact that ban yourself - why do you need the governments help?

Hehe. I didn't read it like that at all, so no worries

Thanks a lot. You're spot on about issue triage etc. I haven't had the time to keep up, but I read all issues when they're created and deal with anything critical. I'm using Postgres.js myself in big deployments and know others are too. The metrics branch should be usable, and I could probably find time to get that part released. It's been ready for a while. I do have some important changes in the pipeline for v4, but won't be able to focus on it until December.

And yet it's still not possible to type tagged template literals...

Insane achievement nonetheless!

Oh - Just checked, you're right these words are reversed in the default dictionary. They'll be right there in front the first time you use them thought, and I'll look into seeing if I can find a good rule for improving the preference by default.

The dictionaries are compiled from large known corpuses, wikipedia and movie subtitles, to ensure most words are available, but it does also mean that some weird words sneak in. That shouldn't matter much since it's very quick to adjust to your usage, and due to the usage sorting the weird words should never come first.

About the punctuation you just need to scroll the symbols window to get to the rest ;)

Thanks a lot! That's some good feedback. (you wrote in the app support chat too right?)

Wrt. Apple Watch, there is unfortunately no support for custom input support, so it has to be a weird hack where you type in one app and copy paste to another or such shenanigans. At least it was the last time I checked.

It doesn't even need to be physical - You should definitely give Type Nine a try ( https://typenineapp.com ) - (disclaimer - I'm the author). There are some promo codes below so you can try it out:

I've used this since 2014 when I made the first version, and I have yet to meet anyone typing faster with the stock iPhone qwerty keyboard.

Exactly this was one of the reasons why I built https://flems.io. Flems is basically just a scratchpad that begins with 3 files — .html, .css and .js. All the current state is stored in the URL, so sharing is simply done by sending the URL to someone else - true serverless ;) Here's a simple sample you can start out on with your nephew.

nb. You don't need to jump in with any of the frameworks used by companies targeting millions of users. The basics are still there...
