🎩🤖 Oh, bravo! Another #developer has bestowed us with the revolutionary ability to control desktop apps via #JSON and AI—because, clearly, what the world desperately needed was yet another layer of #complexity to break when you just need to open a spreadsheet. 🥴 Meanwhile, the rest of us will be over here, waiting for our token savings to materialize like unicorns. 🦄

Aww, poor desktop apps 💔, someone's breaking up with you because they have commitment issues and a penchant for melodramatic exits 🚪🧳. Don't worry, you'll find plenty of other coders who've not yet stumbled into the shiny new world of web apps and still think you're the pinnacle of software brilliance 💻✨.

All applications have been corrected and can be downloaded from my Codeberg repository:
