#PlayNow.app

Tired of having to think of directories and names for your throwaway playground files? PlayNow is here solve all your problems!

Installation

Best way to install is using curl so it bypasses Gatekeeper (Thanks mxcl for the tip!):

cd /Applications && curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apalancat/PlayNow/gh/PlayNow.tgz | tar x

You can also download it and Control-click to have Gatekeeper give you the option to open it.

Install with Homebrew Cask

  1. Install Homebrew: /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
  2. Install Cask: brew install cask
  3. Install PlayNow: brew cask install playnow

Configuration

PlayNow creates an iOS playground by default. If you prefer OS X or tvOS playgrounds you can open the file PlayNow.app/Contents/MacOS/PlayNow with your favorite text editor and change platform = "ios" to platform = "osx" or platform = "tvos" (non-favorite text editors could also work).

How to use it?

  1. Open the app with your App Launcher (or manually)
  2. It creates a new Playground in /tmp
  3. The Playground opens automatically in Xcode
  4. ??

What is it?
