But unlike my day job, this is my project and I get to do what I want. This is my code therapy.
I intend to make it "too cheap to pass", because we should all be able to monitor Certificate Transparency.

Started out as a kanban style of system where anyone could request that we re-order cleaning supplies at a Makerspace. Has evolved to tagging assets and maintaining those assets and I'm working on adding ESP32 based device control to enable/disable devices through those QR codes.
However had, on my todo list ... a few things that are important to me are there.
One is to create some kind of pseudo-language that can model biological cells, from A to Z. I am having something similar to erlang in mind (to some extent). Now, this is nothing new - modeling is quite old, bioinformatics is old, but I have a few ideas that are somewhat novel IMO (e. g. really following erlang here, just adapted to biological systems).
Then I have a few smaller ideas. One is to finish a webframework where everything is really an object at all times. Meaning, I can work with objects when describing a webpage, from A to Z. HTML tags are objects too. I don't typically use them directly, though, but more in a meta-layout, e. g. I want to describe a webpage, but on a higher level, and also push that down into a .pdf file then seamlessly. My goal here is to be able to work with objects everywhere, not just for a single webpage but for all local and remote webpages, a bit similar to Alan Kay's old ideas.
I have a couple more ideas (one is the widgets project where I want to describe a GUI only once and then have it work in as many variants and languages as possible), but realistically I also focus on the smaller things to do as they are much easier to solve. Right now it is more important to me to finish as much as possible before the end of the year, so prioritising on smaller things makes more sense.
There were many detours and scenic routes taken for what turned out to be a pretty straightforward repair in the end, but that’s not uncommon for these kind of things.
I’m on my way back from Home Depot to buy some screws that were missing (and a Xmas tree.) Soon all that’s left will be writing a blog post.
A open source Node.js lib that allows people to create and version control resumes using YAML.
Support LaTeX/PDF/Markdown outputs in one shot with professional typesetting. Support English/Chinese/Norwegian/French languages out of the box. With clang style, real time error reporting.
To release soon: HTML output.
Super simple, yet it’s already good enough that I’ve had detailed conversations and debates in languages that I don’t speak at all.
