MeetingBar
A menu bar macOS app for calendar meetings
It started as the idea of having a handy tool for personal use. There was no commercial purpose, so I made it open source and now this project actively growing with support of open source community.
After two days of subsission review, successfuly pass the review process!
Results of the first two days:
- 40+ downloads from AppStore
- #58 in AppStore Productivity
- Updated github page and site
Now for some reason there is a problem with the display of promotional text.
After more than half a year of development, I decided to join apple development programs and sign the application!
Now users will be able to install the application without unnecessary fears and warnings from Apple!
And I have a long way to review and publish the app in the AppStore!
I prepared a site for the application and decided to try to publish it on hacker news. He was very warmly welcomed!
He soared to first place in the overall top, and then stayed in the top 20 shows for a few more days.
I built the first version, published it on GitHub. Then I prepared the information, published it on ProductHunt and went to bed.
What was my surprise when in the morning I saw 250 upvotes and almost one and a half thousand downloads!
And a bug report, that some users did not start the application, so quickly released a bugfix.
And create a very big initial commit :)
It was already very convenient and useful for me.
From that moment on, I started preparing the project for the state so that other users could use it.

With a large number of meetings, it is very convenient to keep them in front of your eyes. I tried to use various applications from AppStore, but they were inconvenient and sometimes were completely abandoned. (or unreasonably expensive like meeter)
So I wrote the application from scratch using swift
