I made a small and light CRUD web thing in FastAPI to organize my personal library. Mostly it focuses on physical books, but handles ebooks too. I published it as FOSS and some people requested features, so I expanded it a little. It's nothing fancy: https://github.com/seanboyce/ubiblio

...absolutely no one requested an RISC V port, but I did that too for laughs. Neat to see the whole thing run on a system the size of a postage stamp.

Not sure what to do with it next. Will probably just let it be what it is, and fix any bugs that people report. Maybe move on to a new little weekend project.

I’m building an AI-first startup for Latin America, kind of like TaskRabbit but simpler and more aligned with how people actually hire help here. We use WhatsApp for quick updates like ‘Provider is on the way,’ and we focus on getting verified professionals to people’s homes—without getting in the way of payments or how they handle the job.

To fund it, I’m building agentic workflows and automations for insurance, finance, and real estate companies. It’s a way to keep things moving while I get the startup off the ground.

a self organizing scrapbook! focused on zero stress for storage, searching, synthesizing and sharing a personal library https://yourcommonbase.com/ (and some philosophy on the subject :)) https://www.bramadams.dev/tag/personal-library-science/

That sounds interesting, I might give it a try. Do you plan to allow plugins for domain-specific development ?

I have been working full-time for about 15 months on a product to store real-world entity-relations in a graph (using AI/ML for extraction). The idea is to extract entities and relations deterministically from text (using AI/ML for clues about type and position of entities in text).

It is very much a work in progress with lots of commented out code which are just experiments.
