@vodriian said he missed Things 3 on Windows, so he asked agents to create it, using Rust and GPUI on top of @evanpurkhiser's things3-cloud project and a @MariusGhizdavet plugin for Omarchy.

Why it matters
The post suggests developers are cloning favorite apps for platforms they lack, with agents doing most of the work. For Mac and Linux users of Things 3 and for teams that depend on a particular app, this points to a faster route to missing platform versions. It is still a single post, so watch whether the project is shared publicly and how well it holds up for other users.
