Another old project of mine, Tomlyn, just got a major refresh with the 1.0 release: https://xoofx.github.io/Tomlyn/ - a solid, modern foundation for working with TOML in .NET.

Coding agents made it possible to reach this level of polish in my spare time. It's also pretty liberating to ship it […]

A more honest third party monitor of GitHub services. The vital service has under 92% of uptime for the last three months. Rumor is they are migrating everything to Azure and it is going very badly

So, is GenAI still generating pure garbage, Knuth an idiot, that […]

Just released a major 3.0 version of SharpYaml https://xoofx.github.io/SharpYaml/ 🎉

Back from maintenance mode, this new version brings significant improvements: Compatibility with System.Text.Json attributes, NativeAOT support built-in, more built-in serializable types supported, faster than […]

Quite surprising release from the french administration today:

Dunno if this is the first MCP server released officially by a country, but nonetheless, this is a great move.

Steve Sanderson gave an interesting talk about using Copilot from CLI, not that I learned anything, but it is nicely packed and entertaining:

Copilot has been improved significantly in the past year, so that even e.g. Codex feels poorly equipped […]

Logo of the XenoAtom organization

@khalidabuhakmeh ahah, that's a good try, it's not that I don't like it, but I believe I still prefer my version 😅 (having "terminal" feeling was important in the specs)

Otherwise, this is the XenoAtom logo of the org, and I like it:

@khalidabuhakmeh yep

@khalidabuhakmeh both words separately are too generic, and I would not have been able to get a github org or a NuGet prefix. It's pretty tough to find good names, with the availability constraint. I can spend multiple hours trying to find something, and I'm never satisfied with what I have […]

https://lunet.io logo

XenoAtom.Ansi logo

XenoAtom.CommandLine logo

XenoAtom.Logging logo

@khalidabuhakmeh these are the icons I have released recently for my OSS projects. All the XenoAtom are derived from the same idea to make them appear under a same umbrella. I'm sure someone with the right skill could make them much nicer, but they are better […]

Heya, I just released Lunet 1.0 https://lunet.io - the static website generator I started ~10 years ago ☺️

I originally built it for myself and used it in some of my repos, but it never hit the quality bar for a wider audience: no tests, no docs, and tons of small things to fix...

But what […]

@khalidabuhakmeh oh, I think about details too. It's not like I work with a one-shot prompt. 😉

@khalidabuhakmeh you might not like it, but I'm now iterating with my SVG through AI coding agent prompts. 😅

GitHub - vincerubinetti/svg-to-png: Convert SVGs to PNGs right in your browser, reliably and correctly Convert SVGs to PNGs right in your browser, reliably and correctly - vincerubinetti/svg-to-png

@khalidabuhakmeh dunno what is your setup, but I have been using https://github.com/vincerubinetti/svg-to-png recently instead of trying to export from inkscape and I'm probably gonna stick with it. It is more predictable as it is using the actual SVG rendering engine of the browser.

now that Git 2.53 is out, the Git data model @omarieclaire and I wrote is on the official Git website! https://git-scm.com/docs/gitdatamodel

Heya! 🥳 XenoAtom.CommandLine 2.0 is out: https://xenoatom.github.io/commandline/
It brings XenoAtom.Terminal.UI integration, validation, option constraints, and pluggable output rendering. After a month of terminal-focused work, it finally feels complete! 😅 […]

Just promoted XenoAtom.Terminal.UI to 1.0! 🎉

I have added 2 new features from the preview: placeholder and brush gradients usable with text controls! 🎨

I'm going to see if I can add an extension to XenoAtom.CommandLine library to generate beautiful command […]

Heya! 🥳 I just released XenoAtom.Logging https://github.com/XenoAtom/XenoAtom.Logging a performance-first structured logging runtime for .NET focused on zero allocations on the hot path! 🚀

Bonus: it integrates nicely with XenoAtom.Terminal.UI […]

@scottgal Very nice! Let me know how your usage of the library is going and if you have any feedback, as I plan to make it 1.0 soon. 🙂

Looking for a proper Roslyn C# MCP server, maybe https://github.com/kooshi/SharpToolsMCP ? (unfortunate that it does not come as a MCP server NuGet package). Any users of related tooling?

Making some progress on my Terminal UI prototype. Lots of controls done already, but it is going to require quite some polishing work. Very rough for now but it is promising! ✨️

My automatic tracking dependencies is working but it has been tricky to allow […]

A screenshot of an upcoming XenoAtom.Terminal.UI

Making progress in implementing a full terminal UI with a SwiftUI like syntax and easy bindings (no dependency properties!). It supports mouse, hover, tab, focus, clipboard copy/paste and more! 🚀

Still a long way to go but it is already very cool! ✨

Heya! I just released XenoAtom.Terminal https://github.com/XenoAtom/XenoAtom.Terminal, a modern replacement for System.Console for .NET CLI/TUI apps. 🎉

It keeps a familiar Console-like feel, but adds the terminal-native stuff System.Console doesn't cover well: ANSI/VT styling + markup, unified […]
