Craft + Claude = Custom quick capture app
In just under an hour, using a $20/mo Claude Pro account, with only one screenshot as a reference point, I was able to build a native, quick capture app that integrates directly with my Craft account. It's stable and working flawlessly on my Mac Mini so far. I'm blown away.
It’s a simple app, just 1.4 MB in size and it fills a nice, niche use case for me. I type feverish notes while on calls that I can't record for privacy reasons. I don't want the full Craft app open constantly on my Mac. Hence, this micro-app.
It launches at login. I type a hotkey, the window pops up, I type my note and/or drop in an image, I select the Craft document to append it to (or search from all of my Craft documents), and click save. It's instantly there. And it sits in my menu bar if I want to activate it from there instead.
It was so easy to create I'm sort of stunned by the positive experience. I have no coding expertise other than editing HTML or CSS (but I can't even code anything from scratch with those languages either).
This will make it that much easier and faster to drop short content into Craft. I’m very excited. Next step: a voice-to-Craft enhancement. I’m not going to try to sell this app, but if you’re curious, ask me any questions and I’ll explain further.
