Welcome to Syntax on this Monday, Hastie Treat.

We're talking all about my Hack Week project that I did with CJ at Century.

We built a desktop app to help publish Syntax.

It basically automated a ton of steps

that we need to do to publish this show.

So it was a really cool experience.

We built it with a lot of neat tech,

and I'm going to talk you through a little bit

about what we did, why we chose to do it, some of the tech we used and all that good stuff. My name is Scott Tolinsky. I'm a developer from Denver and with me as always as Wes. What's up Wes? Hey, I am excited to hear about your project and all the mostly like the

tech decisions you chose to make a desktop application with web languages I

guess you could say? Yeah, totally. Mostly. Yeah, and you know what we could have really used Century during the publishing phase of this because let me tell you man debugging production desktop apps is a different experience than

debugging a website I mean when you the moment you don't have your inspect or get

into those dev tools you're combing through like

Apple logs that I had to like set up to write even myself I had to write the

code that wrote the Apple logs so it's like now I'm scrolling through these massive amount of logs. It would have been really nice to have Century on this thing. So maybe next time I can figure out how to get Century going on this if I have more time. And that would save me a lot of time because it helps you find

and fix all of your bugs. So head on over to Century.com for slash syntax. Signet make it two months for free.

If you want to save yourself the pain of trying to debug your production software in a very painful way.

All right, so let's hear, let's start with the idea.

With Hack Week every year, there's always like this like,

hmm, what should I do this year?

You know, there's always a couple ideas floating around

and this is something you had been talking about for a while, right?
