After my experience in consulting museums, I found that they spend a lot of money on software, which could potentially be replaced with open source software. Therefore I started an awesome list with FOSS software for museums: https://github.com/smartcompanion-app/awesome-open-source-mu....
- https://kanmail.io - always plugging away at Kanmail changes, no one uses it really except me but that’s fine :) new site designed by fable blew my mind
- https://verified.fyi - first side project started initially as a vibe coding experiment, but it’s become quite good at sussing out dodgy websites
- Visual Guide to Number Theory: write up which explains the field of number theory in a visual manner. - Reenvision technologies: simple software. Local first - no added complexity. Infinite scale without having to add 100 front-end UI frameworks: simple Python, CSS, and JS with SQLite. The design is absolutely breathtaking and beautiful and it is built people first (let's worry about scale later). - Simple LLM: an…
2. An Open Source Enterprise Architecture Platform called Archie - OSS.
After getting laid off a few weeks ago, I decided to give it a complete rewrite with some new features (offline support, lists, passkeys) and a new UI.
It's still very much a work in progress, but I'd really appreciate any feedback that could help make it useful for others as well.
After getting the top spot in What Are You Working On in Feb 2025 ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43157056 ) I started a company on that idea at https://getcomper.ai . After solo building for 11 months I found a co-founder, got an angel investment, then got some ex-Miro folk on board and we are now building the product at breakneck speed. We're a collaborative canvas + context engine for all the code and docs…
This is the first year I made more money selling art than I did freelancing web dev. I just incorporated and formalized my web dev business ( https://lcdbmg.com ). A couple of weeks later I got a booth at an art festival and ended up selling many prints ( https://lucidbeaming.com ). I think the universe is telling me something.
How did you find the festival-booth experience?
Recently added support for scripts (like Claude code workflows) and been iterating on the UI for that a bunch.
I also ended up wanting other customized tooling - a more streamlined way to grep, find files and review code that my agent has written. So I wrote a few plugins for that : needle (finder with UI and sorting functions that suit me better), shuck (interactive grepper that has a workflow around refining grep commands) and glean (a review tool that lets you mark parts of the code as seen, leave comments, view diffs commit by commit or collapsed, etc). https://github.com/dlants/dotfiles/tree/main/nvim/lua
These are all in various states of experimental and mostly just for me, but a few of my coworkers and friends have been using magenta and like it.
The coolest feature I added was a tool to handle passwords under duress.
I'm still working on the Chrome version, but this is the Firefox version:
