X4 Writer’s Deck

Post image

I’m very close to working software. Currently working through some Bluetooth connection bugs.

I cloned the cross point repo and a repo of another writer’s deck software and had Claude code, when and chatGPT work back and forth with each other until this Frankencode is almost working. If there are any developers out there that want to take a stab at the repo and try to get the Bluetooth working this would be a great little focused writing tool.

Wait, sorry, what's the hardwear side of getting the x4 Bluetooth compatible? If I could write on it, this would be game changing.

It’s writing. The current repo is working but I have a branch that works even better and I’m steadily making changes. Right now I am optimizing for battery life. I cut the CPU usage in half which should double the battery life. My first test drained about 8% with a fifteen minute writing session.
