Built a logo sphere in Rive using only one script and 20 PNG assets. No state machines, no animations, no data binding.

This is the power of Rive Scripting.

No state machines. No animations. No data binding. No view models. Just one artboard, one script, and 20 PNG assets.

The whole thing runs on pure Luau:

  • A procedural grid that wraps infinitely
  • A radial scale falloff that fakes depth
  • Smooth mouse parallax
  • A placement algorithm that prevents identical logos from appearing next to each other horizontally, vertically, or diagonally

It's honestly wild how much you can do with Rive Scripting once you stop reaching for the visual tools and just write code.

AiBar v1.1 is out: command groups, search bar, built-in icons, one-time purchase

About 6 months ago I posted AiBar here and got a lot of honest feedback.

The main asks were: a way to organize buttons when the list gets long, faster access to specific commands without scrolling, and better icon options without having to import files manually.

v1.1 ships all of that.

Command Groups: organize buttons by project or task, switch between them in one click from the flyout menu. One command can live in multiple groups at the same time.

Search bar: filters as you type. You can search the active group only or everything at once.

Built-in icon library: searchable icons directly inside the edit dialog, no file imports needed. Size and stroke controls are separate.

Button background colors: give buttons a color so you can spot them without reading every label.

Also fixed: tooltip clipping, scrollbar disappearing with large command counts, contrast breaking when switching Illustrator themes, and replaced the OS-level error popups with something that actually fits the panel.

AiBar is a one-time purchase. No subscription, no renewal. Every future update comes free, including this one.
