It's a pipeline engine for Kubernetes[1]. The idea is to build a tool that can be flexible enough for CI/CD, but also used for other things such as for example data processing.

The pipelines are just designed as serial and parallel execution of pods with no fancy features (i.e. loops or conditions) and the idea is to let other tools generate more complex pipelines using code.

Responsibility of triggering the pipelines is decoupled to standalone controllers such as github-screener[2] which enables triggering of pipelines used for CI/CD.

The project currently builds itself, but the docs are a bit outdated and there's quite a lot progress to be made.

I'm a cloud book reader/organizer, basically a clone of google play books but instead of uploading the books to the page the books are fetch from your own google drive account.

I haven't chosen a name or domain

Not ready yet but very close to completion, maybe in next weeks I will be releasing it.

Stack: Elixir/Vue.js

I think it's a little bit beyond "half" baked, but I built a thing I call Logsuck last year: https://github.com/jackbister/logsuck The idea is to have a free Splunk alternative which you can set up with just one binary. I use Splunk at work and love it, but it just doesn't seem like a product for solo developers (I can't even find a pricing page on splunk.com), and the primary free alternative, the ELK stack, seems a…

Wow, I just commented this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25702294

Maybe I can add yours a JSON view and call it done :)

http://alanbernstein.net/galleries/2020-pecos/#lg=1&slide=1 Photo slide show correlated with gps track, for hiking trips. It's been a goal for years, I finally got it half-baked by just smashing together lightgallery and leaflet. Somehow it works ok on mobile.

I like this a lot. Similar to the Relive app but something that’s easy to share/embed on the web. Nice!

Tt's a generic data language with functions that compiles to other languages. I'm reworking how I do the tree transforms at the moment (since that's what most of the compiler does at they're a PITA) and hopefully will push out a thing that does something before long.

Production ready skeleton projects for bootstrapping new projects. I've used this approach professionally for over 7 years, but never marketed much past my current team.

Included: JS and Python package /microservice / serverless projects; Serverless Benthos; LaTeX paper; zsh and neovim config.

Reasons why this approach is successful

1. Most project generators don't provide a simple way to keep boilerplate updated. These projects leverage git merge and git diff which is designed for the task. So keeping all the generated projects updated as tools evolve is actually possible.

2. Fork friendly: you can fork and customize these repos to create your own personalized skeleton project, and still merge updates from the original.

3. These projects give you a working CI deployment.

4. The projects themselves are REAL working examples which are deployed / published.

5. Isolated boilerplate so any issues with tooling can be verified, tested, and upgraded independently.
