I'm working on my notes app Chronicles[1] again. Typical wysiwyg over local markdown files app. After a lot of internal debate, I've decided I don't want to have novels under my desk and am committing to finishing a 1.0[2] of it. Its a few releases from being accessible to new users, but for me its already displaced most of my other note taking tools. Not nearly as cool as half the stuff on this page, or half my other ideas. But its something I like, and something I can finish.

I'm going to be a dad next year, so I've been thinking about how to baby-proof areas of my house while allowing my cat freedom of navigation. My wife is an English teacher, so I've been building little educational games for her to try in the classroom. My latest attempt is a proof-reading game https://frogs.cool Currently I'm using wikipedia articles but I'm working on adding a variety of age appropriate texts in dif…

As a father with two cats, there are only really two things that have been an issue: food and litter trays. We solved both by putting them into commode-type things (the litter trays were more complex than the food, we had them made specially with a labyrinth entrance to stop an arm snaking through and picking stuff out).

I am working on InvitePlus.io, a tool to manage user access and help companies in onboarding. It will send invites to all software your team has been using with just an email. You can manage teams across multiple platforms (Github, Jira, Asana, etc). Also, you can revoke access with a single click.

Is it designed to supplement or replace a workflows application like servicenow?

I've been thinking a lot lately about the idea of "assets" and what makes an asset class investable or not. This lead me to build a few investment reports for alternative assets (think: wine, Pokemon cards, art, comic books, sneakers, etc.).

The first two reports were Wine [1] and Pokemon Cards [2]. I'm currently working on the third edition, Fine Art.

Dance calendar (Django app, with some AlpineJS/HTMX). Approximately 80 admin pages + 20 end user views + 100 admin views. 2M page loads/month during the summertime. This is in production. For the dance calendar, support site with good first-line AI support based on FAQ answers. Ad management platform for the dance calendar. Sites like this have specific requirements for placing ads that are not well supported by AdSe…

I absolutely love htmx and it fits into Django’s mvt pattern very well.

I'm creating a multi-media project hosted on substack where I write a letter (in a deeply personal and old school correspondence) to my favorite people/creators/ and tell them how they've impacted my life. I give specifics about when and where I first heard/read/saw/etc. their work and what pieces of it have stuck with me over time and become part of my curated worldview and experience.

There aren't any public posts yet because I've been too much of a coward to release them into the wild and promote them even though I think they are great. I'm hoping by commenting here I can pressure myself to update in October with some actual stuff published.

I'm trying to make it easier to run clubs, associations & organizations with a platform called embolt.app[1]. We're offering online memberships, event management, and a member database packed with features. Membership management is a crowded space, but it's also a low-tech space with lots of sleeping giants not willing to iterate on their product. It's been a really fun project so far and even more rewarding to see c…

UI looks great, and it's something I would be interested to try. Why PayPal though?

Thank you! We chose PayPal to ensure clubs and organizations can use our platform without needing a bank account or 501c3 registration, we also plan to leverage PayPal's non-profit transaction discount program for clubs who _are_ registered as 501c3 to provide even lower fees.

A lot of small-medium sized clubs today use a pretty scrappy set of tools to get by (PayPal / Sheets / Forms) but we're going to offer a x10 better experience paired with low transaction fees.

If you want to tell me more about what you'd use embolt for feel free to shoot me an email over at grant at embolt.app!

I spent a week building a website that is a repository of timeless content. It generally consists of old magazine articles (though not exclusively) that you can pick up at any time and will bring value to your life. I notice most of what we consume on daily basis is ephemeral and not all that valuable outside of the moment, whereas ever-present content is always valuable. The unique angle here is that each article in…

I love this idea - it's got a nice dose of nostalgia to it as well
