A few years ago, my wife and I decided to adopt a rescue cat from battersea.org.uk. However, it was a frustrating experience as the staff didn't always update the website regularly, and we'd find that any suitable cats would be snapped up before we'd even seen them. I spotted that the website served its data to the frontend via an unsecured internal JSON API, so I built an Elixir app that would poll the API endpoint…
Great example of a pet project :)
I created several. The most recent: an Android app that lets you navigate any map, e.g. the one you just make a picture of: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.vanderplank... I use this one myself: we like to take walks, and not always are the routes marked that clearly. Still only a handful of users, but usefull I guess for anyone that wished that e.g. Google maps made it possible to upload a picture to…
Edit: found a YouTube video, seems like it does what I think it does. Although the video could be a lot better, it's currently Boomer PowerPoint (sorry). LetsDoThis, is that an app for a group of people? It'd be interesting if say a group of 5 people want to decide on where to go for lunch, dinner; or where to sightsee on a travel day... I guess the choices need to be granular too, e.g. a steak restaurant would be "H…
Leader anyone who voted can see best voted result. You can add arbitrary urls, any texts, and select netflix movies and restaurants.
Communication between leader and others is via your own solution: whatsapp, signal or other social app (you essentially share the uuid between you). My server stores the solutions and votes for two weeks, and then deletes the results.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Honest question: I was looking at Wednesday and it said: Cook dinner, Dishes, Trash out. What is the usefulness of tracking this in the app since just entering the kitchen gives you instant status to each of them?
I put some generic defaults, but it works well for tasks that happen only on certain days. Taking trash to the curb once a week, packing bags for kids after school activities, etc. We liked checking things off the list, so we put obvious stuff too, but it's easy to forget infrequent tasks.
I have a litany of scripts and programs but those that reached moderate complexity are: 1. A script to canonicalize the name of PDF statements from financial institutions and sort them into a directory structure 2. A CLI (not TUI, actual CLI with custom command syntax and read line integration) for a 3rd party todo service with 2 way sync that gets synchronized with the app on ny iPhone. 3. A web app that I self host…
There are more apps like this, but they all weigh too heavy on me because I simply want a directory three representation of my files and not be managing a library. Also it’s super low memory.
There is a similar Go project on GitHub, but that does not support directories mixed with files, and I don’t think it supports streaming comic book pages.
* `inlinehashes`[1] - To help build the CSP of websites that I don't control the source/development.
* `worker-ddns` [2] - simple DDNS solution using cloudflare workers
* `kinspect` [3] - a web tool to quickly inspect PGP keys without importing them to my keyring.

It helps decipher JS error stack traces by applying source maps to them. In my previous company, we struggled to configure Sentry to work with source maps, and every error message was cryptic due to minification. First, I created a little command line utility and later made it a web app.

If the data is read only it's a GOOD thing especially for non-confidential data that are meant to be public, every government agency should open their public data like this.
