Self-hosted Forgejo + actions runner
Self-hosted development infrastructure replacing GitHub and GitLab with Forgejo plus an actions runner, along with a backup plan covering documents, the Immich library, the SaaS database, and the Forgejo repositories.
PaperCove
A minimalist web reader used daily to follow RSS feeds, newsletters, and read-later articles, helping keep content from piling up. Features content extraction and email-based newsletter ingestion. Built with Laravel and Livewire, Python for extraction, and Go for email infrastructure; a beta release is planned this month.
Sendery
Product teams at scaling companies who manage transactional product emails across developers, marketing, and ops, including multilingual content.
Old-style RTS game
A retro-style real-time strategy (RTS) game built with AI-assisted coding (Claude for the code), while exploring how far local AI models can be pushed to generate art assets such as drawings, 3D models, rigging, and sprites.
Abbox
Abbox helps engineers stay focused on long tasks by shielding them from interruptions caused by non-technical people submitting small requests, such as minor design tweaks, adding tracking, or fixing styles that don't match Figma.
obeya.si
A project that uses demo videos to show the work it has done and currently answers questions with text; showntell is being incorporated so questions can be answered with video instead of just text.
Reflect
This is a local-first, privacy-focused self-tracking and data analysis app that lets users set goals and run self experiments.
Werkbook
This app provides digital forms and photo reports for field crews, with native iOS and Android apps built on a Rails backend.
Linked List
A link blog and curation site for discovering good reads suggested by fellow humans, positioned as an alternative to Hacker News and Lobsters. Sign-ups are not yet open.
Unnamed project
A tool the author built and likes, but whose full capabilities are too complex for users to understand, which makes marketing difficult since people won't try it out.
Magic AI
A sanitized kids ChatGPT offering seven activities: story, image creation, chat, reflections, journal, learn, and quizzes, and sends the parent a daily summary on WhatsApp.
Pi in the cloud
A personal AI assistant environment built entirely on Cloudflare Workers that the wrangler agent can spin up with just an inference key, providing a file view, a ChatGPT-like experience, the ability to build and host custom apps, and alarms that wake it up to perform plain-language tasks. The author is exploring how to package it and where it could be useful for other apps.
Open-source Galician children's fable about open source
An open-source children's story told as a fable, written in Galician to teach kids about open source. Community contributors are translating it into Spanish and English, and the project seeks funding and distribution channels for printing physical copies.
FeedSync
A hosted web tool that pushes RSS feed updates to Discord. Built with Phoenix LiveView and deployed in a single region, with a SPA being explored to reduce latency for distant users.
Lua feed engine
A Lua engine that generates RSS feeds for websites that don't natively support them, using AI to write the Lua feed scripts as a one-off. Still an early-stage experiment not ready for prime time.
Raspberry Pi home media server
This project is a home media server built on a Raspberry Pi running headless Debian. It streams music and videos, stores game ROMs, and automatically standardizes file names, handling tagging and subtitles, all backed by a 6-drive enclosure filled with old HDDs. It is configured and customized through Claude with barely any hand-written code or commands.
Smart-bike exercise game suite
A suite of high-dopamine games that use smart exercise bikes as the control interface, pairing satisfying game mechanics with steady-output workouts. The first finished prototype is a marble-sorting game: higher watt output blows marbles upward as they roll across the screen, lower output lets them fall, and steady output moves them horizontally, with satisfying sounds when marbles land in the correct hole and gameplay that rewards steady watt output over time. Planned follow-ups include a tower defense game and a Kerbal Space Program-style physics game about designing and flying increasingly ridiculous airborne bicycles.
Leafle
A book and library book recommendations service that suggests titles worth borrowing, using LLMs as an interface and a research/reverse-engineering tool, with AI-based quality filtering of model providers before recommendations are shown to users.
Stackness
An indie social network for tech people that includes games and achievements to keep users engaged.
Kantamigo
A tool for guitarists and their friends, launching this weekend.
Joule
An Obsidian plugin for quickly entering caloric and nutritional data, built around a DSL and a runtime for finding and resolving formulae recursively. Core features are done; documentation and convenience features remain.
apyhub mcp
This MCP server makes all ApyHub APIs available to AI agents, so agents can call ApyHub's APIs through the Model Context Protocol.
hermitator
A tool that runs multiple isolated AI agents for WhatsApp on a single machine, with idle agents using no RAM.
showntell
A tool that lets your coding agent explain things to you with a video that starts playing within a few seconds of asking.
2:1 live philosophy tutor
A philosophy tutor that runs 2:1 live philosophy lessons, each exploring a single topic, aimed at kids around 10 years old; currently in private testing, with a successful trial and improvements underway.
jmail-style mailbox viewer
A jmail-style mailbox viewer for browsing mailboxes.
Proportional width font terminal
This project is a terminal that uses a proportional width font instead of a monospaced font, letting characters like "i" and "w" occupy their natural widths while spending extra computation to keep table output from commands like ls -l and top properly aligned.
Text Connection System
This system connects texts such as books and research papers in meaningful ways, helping people decide what to read and become aware of how texts relate to each other. The author plans to make it open-source later.
ChatFrom.io
This app lets users upload their knowledge base and uses advanced RAG with hybrid search and reranking to find answers when someone asks a question. It connects to Stripe, Shopify, and other tools, and works on Telegram, Slack, and more. Free to start.
