We are working on revamping Quicksilver after a period of relative dormancy; I'm new to the project, but a long-time user.

We've made several releases over the last few months -- some new features I'm excited for include support for scripting in JXA (instead of just AppleScript), and I'm working on Swift support in the plugin template for those who (like me) don't know ObjC but want to build a plugin.

Thanks for the shout-out!

I used to love QS so much, and I'm very happy that development has commenced again! With the switch to M1, I've switched to Raycast, as QS wasn't M1 native at the time. Which is nice, but I really prefer the Object → Verb [→ Target] grammar of Quicksilver. I'll go and install QS again soon to check out what's new. Thank you for your work (please tell the rest of the team as well)!
So cool! Thanks for waking it up, I'm still using it, have been for more than 10 years, and recently upgraded to your 2.x version. Excited to see it move forward!
