Last couple weeks I've been building a new website to showcase the document formatting capabilities of my programming language Mech. It's out now:

https://mech-lang.org/post/2026-05-11-version-0.3/

Mech has a builtin presentation layer called Mechdown (a Markdown dialect) which allows tight integration between the document and the underlying program. You can see the source here: https://gitlab.com/mech-lang/web/website/-/raw/df4784d44b4ea...

Would appreciate any bug reports or issues: https://github.com/mech-lang/mech/issues

I recently built this project for AMD AI Hackathon. At it's core, it's a local first debugging tool thats powered by Qwen 3.5:9b.

You give it a repo and an error log and It finds the root cause, suggests a fix, shows the bug propagation and the files it went through. The fix it suggests is in a diff format so its very easy to apply the fix. Here's the link to the repository if anyone wants to try it.

Any type of feedback is welcome!

I'm working on https://www.OnetimeFax.com - it's a way to send and receive faxes for a flat fee without needing to subscribe to anything. Version 1 was a script I wrote for myself to fax the courts a jury duty deferral during covid lockdown, and then during my parental leave I productized it.

I was just thinking about building this! Bravo!

A micro discovery / rediscover your local area.

My friend dumbed it "Pokemon go but replace the Pokemons with castles and churches :)"

Use the GPS to discover places of interest in your neighbours or anywhere in the world and invites you to do see these places in person and check in and read the page and get a fun quiz.

It works great for me in Scotland, check it out in your country and let me know.

Working on a tool to speed up iterations of backtesting Algo trading strategies (https://foxtradetools.com/):

- Visual tool for building strategies

- Backtest on site or MT5 EA using same json configurations

- Running EA live (or paper mode) in prod automatically feeds the trades back to the site for analysis

- The thing I am most happy with: you can click any trade in backtest result and see exactly which rules were true at the bar that fired

You can try it in action w/o signup using taster page (https://foxtradetools.com/taster)

Solo dev. Open to any feedback.

I'm creating a piece of "home cooked software" - a multi-player web game to play with my team at your monthly Social. Made for a specific team, for a specific occasion.

Its janky, and I made several time-saving decisions that'll cost me more time in the end, but I'm having fun.

I'm working on my website directory (https://intrasti.com) I've mostly been slow about it over the last year as I continue upskilling.. will be looking for a full time job so I can keep up the slow pace!

There hasn't been any releases in the last couple months but I'm working on some stuff like search topic shelves (netflix-style shelves in the search) and I'm going to bring back visited links that look similar to YouTube 'watched' thumbnail tags!
