This is an early alpha. It works and it's genuinely useful day-to-day, but expect rough edges. It's an open-source project that needs your help — try it, file issues, and send PRs. Bug reports on specific apps are the single most valuable contribution right now. Built by a senior full-stack engineer (5+ years), in the open, with heavy use of AI. Full transparency: AI was a real power tool throughout. The code was written with AI coding-assistant help; the app icon/artwork and the documentation are AI-generated ; and suggestions come from a third-party open-weights LLM (Qwen3) running locally — TabType trains no models and reviews no output. This is still not a thin \"AI generated a wrapper\" app — it's a native macOS app with a hand-tuned local-inference pipeline and 50+ tests, with a human accountable for the architecture, debugging, and result.
