Today we have our first example app for WordPress. We started with an app I wrote that keeps scripting.com in sync with daveverse.org, which is a WordPress site.

Way back in March as I was starting to work with Claude Code, I think — we put together a pretty nice outliner that is remarkably feature-rich. I barely remember doing this. It’s what got me moving in this direction, and next month we started doing what became rss.chat.

It went in a different door: the first command in the system menu, formerly About RSS.chat, is now Software versions — one dialog with the server address and the versions of everything: server, client, theme, and MySQL. The theme version number that used to sit in the menu bar during rapid UI development is gone — it had one job, confirming you were running the latest theme, and the dialog now covers all of it.
