Indie developer @yihuiindie is using $250 in free Claude credits from Anthropic to rebuild his favorite paid Mac utilities as his own versions to save money.
First product done: DockLock, which pins the macOS Dock to a chosen display, fixing the annoyance of the Dock jumping between screens when the mouse hits the bottom edge in multi-monitor setups.
