I work on a problem of easily running AI workflows that are just simple API endpoints that have SDKs in most major tech stacks. I was reinventing the wheel with AI workflows for my customers so many times that I finally decided to extract all those workflows as simple APIs and give paid access to everyone. https://sharpapi.com/

I'm working on a fully offline, client-side train journey planner for UK rail - https://railraptor.com When booking flights, I use sites like Kiwi and Skyscanner that let you do flexible searches - multiple destinations, custom connections, creative routes, etc. But rail search feels oddly constrained. All the UK train operators offer basically the same experience, and surface the exact same routes. I always suspecte…

As someone not in the UK but would like to play with it / try it out but don't know much about the UK it would be nice if there was either a drop of locations so I could randomly pick a place or select on a map and get the closest stop.

A map feature might help people do "spur of the moment" planning if they are looking for more of an adventure than any specific location.

I'm building a joke CLI tool written in Go called cubectl. It’s a parody of kubectl. As a non-native English speaker, I mistakenly pronounced it as "/kʊbɛ kəntróul/" instead of "/kjuːb kəntróul/". This mistake inspired me to build a tool that actually controls a 3D cube in the terminal instead of Kubernetes clusters.

It's a hobby project and completely useless, but fun for me.
