Working on Authbound. Digital identities are slowly becoming more prominent. With EU mandatory regulations, it will just boost this market. So we're building eIDAS 2.0 / EUDI Wallet Plug & Play SDK integration for businesses that don't want to figure out the compliance and technical mess themselves.

Side effect: KYC gets stupid cheap. Cryptographic credential verification vs. traditional document checks is not even close on cost (≈90% cheaper). Qualified Electronic Signatures and EUDI Wallet Payment systems are also coming in the following years.

I'm making https://pond.li to try and make our personal archives of text and other media we engage with more available to the present. It's an interesting design space at least, partly because it requires taking a stance on what meaningful/cognitive agency preserving human-LLM interaction looks like

Tweaks to my accessible color palette editor that helps you create Tailwind style palettes for web/UI design:

https://www.inclusivecolors.com/

Most tools only let you enter a single color and then attempt to autogenerate or use AI to create the other tints/shades, which often don't do a great job and are really limiting when you're creating branded palettes.

The focus on this tool is to let you tweak every tint/shade while keeping an eye on accessible contrast. The curve based editor shows you how the H/S/L values of your colors vary across a color scale and is meant to make the editing process quick and intuitive enough that you won't want to give up control to autogeneration.

Playing about with a small side project that's spun out of a need to manage our board game nights better.

Started as a spreadsheet, moved to notion database, now a web app. Idea is groups have collective libraries across members, and planning what to play when is a pain.

Tried to make it easy to get going - take photo of your games shelf and we identify the games there, look them up via the BoardGameGeek API and add the to you library, then you can the pool with others.

It's free if you want to give it a go:

I'm rewriting the open-source core [0] of our product [1] to add more flexible reports.

This is the first time I'm building with the help of AI (Claude), but I don't really let it write code. It has been really helpful in discussing ideas (I'm mostly working alone), like a rubber duck that actually talks back. The code it generates however has many subtle and sometimes obvious mistakes in them, so I decided to write the code myself.

The main benefits over the previous version will be:

- Dynamic reports (ClickHouse queries are generated on the fly)

- Better performance

- Much cleaner and less code

- Better and faster data ingestion including new features, like full support for JSON metadata

- And much more

It feels kinda crazy that I've been working on this project for more than 5 years now and it's still exciting :)

PAX ERP. An AI-assisted ERP for small regulated/job shop manufacturers that have outgrown QuickBooks and can't afford (or take the time) to go through a traditional ERP implementation.

PAX is the easiest ERP to pick up. Our core idea is that ERP should not take weeks of formal training and implementation. We have no formal training, no implementation fees, and are a complete ERP+CRM GAAP accounting system. It's intuitive, well-documented, AI-assisted (never steered), and people can pick it up and start using it well with no questions to our team.

My 8 year old son has pretty poor handwriting which is affecting his exams. I bought him handwriting notebooks to practice but I could not really point where / what to improve ("try harder" / "make it neater" didn't help :) )

Out of curiosity, I tried using AI for help by scanning the paper and the feedback for improvement was quite good (definitely better than mine). So I created an Android app for this (no iphone for now): you write on paper, take a picture and get feedback on what to improve
