#573I'm building a privacy-first fitness / health tracker.
I managed to lose a lot of weight during lockdown with the help of fitbit but using a Google service to handover my most personal of data doesn't sit right with me (it served a purpose).
So I've started to build what I need from a tracker.
Where I'm heading generally: - Platform / API access (so you OWN your data) - Client-side encryption - No tracking / knowledge - Weight, Calories, Diet, Run - Import GPS from Garmin etc.. graph/store/play
_cringe_ but what do I have to lose
(best viewed on mobiles for now - haven't considered a desktop yet)

#574I made a pullchain that immediately ends your video call to avoid awkwardness.

It was hacked together in an afternoon and def not ready for prime time, but it got quite a bit more interaction than originally thought. Also, perhaps its greatest form (like many things I've made) might be as half-baked.
Now the question is: do I make more? My instinct says no because of how hard hardware is, especially as a joke...
Either way, at very least, the interaction definitely defends the "don't worry, be crappy" hypothesis.

Browser-based endless arcade multiplayer snake game with mobile support.
For some reason, it always seems to run smoother on mobile than on desktop. Browsers make it basically impossible to get a smooth frame rate :-/
It's been on the back burner for a while. I need to finish adding a way to choose your name.

The Space War is a a card game I have been working on as a side project since summer 2018. Similar but in my opinion better than Hearthstone and Magic.
Can be played online for free in the browser here https://play.thespacewar.com/
Need help with Node development, sound effects and playtesters.

Telegram bot to notify me about new comments. Hosted on a free Heroku dyno and will definitely fail under load, but works for me.

A CI/CD with webinterface for Archlinux packages which optional AUR push support if builds succeed. It's based on Django and works with Docker/Podman. I originally made it for my own AUR packages (> 300), I needed accessible build logs if I want to collab, which the common builders didn't provide. I made the project public and it's crazy for me as an open source beginner to see how many people like this. The basic features are complete, but things like multiarch are getting added soon.

In grad school I made a browser-based app to integrate note-taking and reference management as seamlessly as possible, having been disappointed with existing software. Basically, it's kind of wiki-like, except links open in place by default so you don't lose your place jumping between pages.
I got it working well enough to use for the entirety of my PhD but don't really use it anymore just because it's still fairly clunky in certain ways.
I have zero time to continue working on it, but I do still kind of like the idea and would be thrilled if someone else picked it up!

#580Started a new project this year after taking part in the future founder course of startup school.
I want to build a SaaS product for asynchronous communication for remote companies.
"Twitter for companies" or "Slack for microblogging".
Don't know where the journey will take me, but as a remote worker for 6 years that doesn't like these omnipresent chats, I wanted to build an alternative.
Nothing to show for right now, since I just got started.
