Product principles

Native by design

SwiftUI-first Apple-native feel Restrained glass UI Local compilation PDF-centered flow Auto-compile watcher Structured diagnostics

Under the surface

Architecture snapshot

  • Apps/MacApp: main shell, editor, compile controls, preview layout.
  • Apps/iOSApp: companion scaffold for future live viewer flow.
  • Core: compile runner, diagnostics parser, document state.
  • Shared: reusable models and project/settings persistence.

What comes next

Near-term roadmap

  • Accessibility pass for keyboard focus traversal and VoiceOver.
  • Friendlier diagnostic grouping with source-jump hooks.
  • Expanded regression coverage around watcher/settings behavior.
  • iOS companion sync and page-change summaries in V2.
