Long overdue, but I've added a blog section to my website: https://divested.dev/pages/blog

It will match my toots to an extent, but may have more detail, as well as feature longer posts too.

More work on https://udderance.app/

- Boards are now machine translated into 35 languages
- Pictograms now work in Safari
- Phrase buttons are now in a dialog view instead of a collapse view for quicker navigation
- Phrase board generation has been overhauled to allow for sub boards as a prerequisite for importing OpenBoardFormat files
- Many homepage improvements: features, compatibility matrix, explanations, etc.

Happy Tuesday! 🛸 🐮

Here is another small project I made yesterday: https://udderance.app

Udderance is a text-to-speech (TTS) based augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) tool with a focus on simplicity and cross-platform usage.

It is meant to be installed as a PWA (via your browser) on your phone.
