MacFader
Turn your Mac trackpad edges into handy sliders.
What is MacFader?
MacFader is a lightweight macOS menu bar app that transforms your trackpad edges into intuitive system controls. Slide along the right edge to adjust volume, the left edge to control display brightness, and the top edge to manage keyboard backlight. Use the bottom edge for media playback and corners for quick actions. Customize every edge and corner, enjoy haptic feedback at key volume levels, and fine-tune adjustments with modifier keys. Works with built-in Mac trackpads and Magic Trackpad. No analytics or tracking.

Embed in a community so others pull insights out of you
Louie had never considered teaching a real-estate course until a community peer pointed at the expertise he was undervaluing. Products get easier to validate when peers point at the knowledge you've been ignoring in yourself. Sit inside a community of operators and listen for the asks — the next product is in those questions.
