A site to Browse Disney Plus catalog
Being a Disney fan, I needed to browse Disney plus movies with IMDB rating. Also, my friends wanted to view Disney plus catalog without registering. This site serves both of these purpose.

#64A peer to peer file system sharing application with GUI in browser
While my knowledge of IPFS is pretty basic, this strikes me as a great use case for it.
IPFS (https://ipfs.io) is a P2P internet protocol that's made to enable a decentralized internet...I believe its goal is to supplant (or at least supplement) HTTP(S). As I said, my knowledge of IPFS is still pretty basic, but I find it fascinating and I thought it might be relevant for this application.

#67Was tinkering with some hardware and synths, decided it might be fun to expand the teenage engineering's OP-Z synth capabilities a bit.
It was a fun and frustrating learning experience. First meh prototype with a Raspberry Pi Zero: https://victorbitca.github.io/posts/2019/04/creating-an-op-z...
Second prototype based on the Teensy board: https://victorbitca.github.io/posts/2019/06/a-proper-op-z-pl...

#68I built promnesia, a browser extension to connect together different data sources and enhance browser history.
E.g. if you visit some blog post or youtube video you had in your bookmarks, you would be able to tell if it was coming from your reddit saved posts, or if your friend sent it to you on telegram.
Another feature is displaying annotations from any sources (e.g. pocket/instapaper);as an overlay on any page
I've been using it for a while now, and just needs final touches before I'll release it https://github.com/karlicoss/promnesia

#70I got tired of fighting SSR and implementing the same optimizations over and over again so decided to launch http://oya.to/ an optimizing cloud proxy - kinda like Cloudflare. The main feature right now is prerendering as an alternative to SSR, but there are a lot of things planned for 2020.
In a similar vein I found myself doing a lot of work that I think should be unnecessary just because I wanted to buy some fonts and not depend on yet another subscription service so decided to build https://woff.cc/ aka "Web of Fonts". It's currently in the planning stage but when launched, it will allow you to upload your licensed or (SIL) free fronts (including all Google fonts already built in), optimize them (subsets, css embedding, etc.) and either host it there for free or download and host it yourself.
