Solid looks interesting. Does anyone have hands on experience? Any thoughts?

I think it’s here to stay, too, and thankfully the main issue with it is fixable: the lack of tactile feedforward/feedback. If the display had little grooves to separate the controls and used the…

I wonder how many active users an app like this has. It is the type of lovely, well designed Mac app that nearly no one makes anymore, and it’s a pleasure to use. But much like Coda, maybe it is stuck…
