I am working on a little browser extension to copy github pull requests into the clipboard to share them in chat apps for reviews. I am used to manually ping people with the link and found that having the pr title and the link format github uses makes it easier for people to understand what they are about to review, and potentially makes for a quicker review :).

https://pistepal.app/ - a ski map app - built at breakneck speed over the last few months. I believe this is the only ski map app that offers turn-by-turn navigation!

Screenshots in the App Stores, e.g. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pistepal/id6754510927

Still a little bit rough around the edges but hopefully will be / is in decent enough shape for the start of the ski season (just about happening now..)

Currently figuring out the right balance of free tier & daily trial. Priced at $10/month and therefore significantly undercutting the competition, hopefully this is enough to gain entry into the market. (May need a more generous daily trial though, admittedly 10 minutes is not really enough to actually try it out on the mountain).

Seems ad spend is necessary to get any kind of traction...

Feedback welcome!

I am not sure if I will go live with it.

It allows those professionals experts across the USA provide help to Do It yourself consumers for a fee. Consumers can be anywhere.

So I married sort of like Uber (rent skills) + upwork (rent + fees) + FaceTime + e-commerce. realtime audio transcription that identifies parts you need and builds a list for pros and you to review which you then go shop.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blazingban... Completely free, no ads, no in-app purchases and no accounts / network required offline voice transcription. I have also built the macOS/Windows/Linux versions which I'll also make free to download and available on my site soon ( https://blazingbanana.com/ ). iOS version is built and works (extremely well), just waiting for the Apple Developer signup pro…

That's very cool, I've been looking for a fully offline transcription app for quite a while. Thanks for building this! And thanks so much for providing an "import audio file" function, not just "record from mic" -- transcribing voice notes from various messenger apps is my main use case here.

Do you have an idea about supporting languages other than English?

I am working for a while on a command line game about spacepirates playing basketball across the galaxy. The game is a basketball managerial game with some pirate-y stuff. It's a P2P game with no central server, built on top of libp2p.

It runs as a terminal application, meaning that you just need to run it from your terminal, but you can try the game over ssh without installing: `ssh frittura.org -p 3788`

Working on an iOS/Android app that lets gamers of all flavors connect with each other.

The main selling point of this app is that I do everything to let you continue do what you're doing while the algorithm search for other players. You receive a notification when a group is found or when a player is found.

Its not out yet ! The beta will be released in less than two weeks !

We have a website https://jynx.app/ If you want to leave feedback there is a form for that
