About Pulse Island
Pulse turns your MacBook's notch into a Dynamic Island: Be it music, meetings, clipboard, weather, focus timers, devices and live system stats, one glance up.
About Islet
Most notch utilities just draw a static shape over the cutout. Islet actually behaves like iPhone's Dynamic Island: native spring-physics expand/collapse, real-time HUDs for volume and brightness, a live music glance with full playback controls, one-tap audio output switching (no System Settings detour), plus calendar, weather, and a file tray you can drop into from anywhere. Built natively in Swift + AppKit, not Electron, fast and fullscreen-aware.
