Not the OP, but I've actually made something like that to help people figure out where to live in London based on the criteria they care about -- here it is https://findmyarea.co.uk/?search_type=areas Would be great to see similar tools for other cities!

It didn't have Internet access so I was somewhat limited in what I could do with it. I ended up building a hacky internal IIS/PHP web app (I guess these days one would call…

#159I am just starting out trying to learn iOS development and last weekend I made a small tally/counter app. All it does is adds or subtracts 1, but dammit if I'm not excited about it.
