Daniel Jalkut

Daniel Jalkut is a Mac and iOS indie developer who founded Red Sweater Software in 2002 after seven years engineering Mac OS at Apple. He is best known for MarsEdit, the long-running desktop blog editor he bought from Brent Simmons in 2007, and for FastScripts, a scripting automation utility. For 16 years he co-hosted Core Intuition with Manton Reece, one of the defining podcasts of the indie Apple-developer scene, and he runs the long-form interview show Bitsplitting. He is a fixture of the indie web and micro.blog community, writing about software craft, the business of going it alone, and the texture of a programming life.
