A few of us are working on trustworthy tech: https://trustworthy.technology/ and looking for folks to join up at zulip.

Ultimately, we’d like to get the main FOSS hardware, software, and services into a single store. Maybe we should put AI in the name. ;-)

Built a SQL interface for DynamoDB. I was tired of constantly trying to find workarounds for querying on a NoSQL database, so I built a direct interface for DynamoDB, which I'm calling DynamoSQL. With it, you can use standard SQL (even JOINs) on DynamoDB. I'm really excited about it, and I'm starting beta trials this week.

I'm working on a daily journal app using rust and iced. Where you can quickly jot down your thoughts or information in a single line

All data are stored in text file, following the most general markdown formats, so it's easy to just open the text file and change.

Also, it supports TODO, and looking to add support for reminders, scripting support, calculation, tabular data using CSV, etc.

UI is complete keyboard driven.

Core intention is, managing your journals in single line, with really fast keyboard access, and stored in text file

I'm still working on Nottawa (https://nottawa.app) - free live audioreactive visuals for everyone.

It's a node based workstation for generating live visuals using shaders, webcams, local files, and more. 100+ effects and source types.

Nottawa's aimed somewhere between the Resolume and TouchDesigner market. VJs and musicians who are interested in live visuals but don't have the time or funds to dive into a pro setup.

It's built in C++ with OpenFrameworks, ImGui, BTrack, and more. Right now I'm doing a front-end rewrite in SwiftUI which bridges back to C++ while keeping all the rendering in OpenGL.

I have an invoice/order taker https://www.bestsellerapp.net, it syncs to many ERPs and allow people to operate everywhere, that I'm upgrading to be a more general mini-ERP.

On the side, retaking https://tablam.org, that I have procrastinated because wanna provide a parser that work for editors (that is way harder than normal batch parsers!)

Thank you for this!

I’m making a digital ESP32 powered synthesizer at https://subalpinecircuits.com/. It’s been a ton of fun, learning so much about every part of the process (and I don’t use LLMs). Currently I’m learning FreeCAD and figuring out what my case design will be. Woodworking, CAM and DFM is a whole other world for a software guy!
