Description

Since Ice seems like it's not being maintained and the next best tools are 5/6 years dormant I've been completely lost! Ice crashing so much there was barely having any point in it any more. The issues log is a bit of a graveyard.

I get it, it's FOSS, we spin up a project, then life happens and it's no always possible to carry the torch forever.

So I just wanted to say

1. I'm so happy you've forked it seems like you've fixed most of the stability issues from what I can see so far - THANK YOU!
2. Do you want help with this or prefer opinionated internet randoms just express their gratitude and report bugs? I'd be more than happy to contribute to the code and on an ongoing basis if desired (obvs you don't know me from adam so building some trust would be required), in that vein I can only ask, is there a particular area you'd like someone to help out /spend some time on, and I can have a go at helping out an submitting a few PRs - if you wan, I won't be offended if you tell me to PFO :)

That's it! Keep up the great work. Happy to donate to keep the lights on if there's a kitty somewhere.

Thank you very much for your kind words. Regarding your second question, all of it. To whatever capability people can contribute, they are welcome. May it be writing bug reports, help to test, contribute code and/or sponsor me. Every contribution is welcome. Of course financial support would allow me to buy a golden bone for my doggo 😁.

One think I'd like to see being added in the future is translations. But first I need to figure out how to properly set up an Xcode project on Weblate.

Besides that, currently there are some issues with macOS 14/15 that are kinda hard to debug for me since I daily run macOS 26. See #1 If someone can figure out what exactly is going wrong here and can contribute code, I'm more than happy to see this being merged.

Adding to the issues lists, I was testing ci workflows to compile the project for each supported version, but the respective Xcode versions were having errors to do so. I had to force the CI runners to use Xcode version 26.2.

I would very much like to help out by translating yout app into German. Feel free to contact me, whenever the time has come.

[stonerl]

Well, you could start right away. I added a String Catalog with the latest beta. You just need to clone the repo, open it in Xcode, and start translating. Info where the translations sit can be found here: https://github.com/stonerl/Thaw#translations

[Mutzki13]

I finished the translation in Xcode, how do I get the files to you?

[Mutzki13]

Ich habe XCode jetzt mit GitHub verbunden, wenn ich meine Übersetzung beisteuern will, wähle ich dann Localizable.xcstrings aus, gehe dann auf Integrate > Commit und wähle dort Ammend a459cf8 und dann auf Commit? Wenn ich auf Thaw main > Create Pull Request... gehe kommt nur eine GitHub-Seite mit There isn’t anything to compare.

[stonerl]

Passt, ich habe deine Strings ja schon integriert. Ich habe bisher auch noch nie GitHub in Xcode verwendet. Ich verwende
Fork bzw. direkt die Kommandozeile. Du kannst aber auch mal die GitHub-Desktop-App testen, vielleicht erleichtert die das conributen.

[Mutzki13]

Got it, I just wanted to understand the procedure, especially if the translation needs optimization or additions in the future. But I think I got it for now.
Does XCode refresh your changes automatically? If not, where can I trigger a refresh? So that if I want to refine the translation, I am sure to work with the latest version. Sorry for all the questions, I really like to contribute but am a total noob with GitHub and Xcode.

[stonerl]

AFAIK, you have to pull manually. You can do this from the menu Integrate, the one between Debug and Fenster (don't know the German translation for it; my system is all English).

[Mutzki13]

Ich habe die Übersetzung nochmal an einigen Stellen angepasst und kleinere Fehler behoben, nachdem ich gerade die neueste Beta installiert und mir das in echt angeschaut habe.
An einigen Stellen fehlen noch Übersetzungen, weil sie bisher (noch) nicht in der Sprachdatei einthalten sind, bzw. passen die Übersetzungen nicht in den vorhandenen Platz. Ich habe mal Screenshots angehängt.
