#22https://www.juicebox.dj/ - Listen to YouTube/SoundCloud with others
Ended up taking way longer than a weekend but it's still basically a passion project of mine. I used Node.js, Firebase, and React.

#24Webhook: https://github.com/adnanh/webhook
Self hosted tiny incoming webhook server with powerful options. Lets user run shell commands on incoming webhook. Has context parsing (use values from payload, query string, headers etc...). Can use context to validate the requests (i.e. only trigger if the push is coming from GitHub and the ref branch is the master branch). More info can be found in the Readme and on the wiki.
Tech stack: Golang

Hookdoo - https://www.hookdoo.com/
A SaaS spin on the webhook server. Sort of an opposite approach. Has all the features webhook has, and also implements concurrency management (i.e. only run one script and deny others until it's done, allow parallel runs etc...). Centralized, managed, leverages SSH. No need for the user to install and configure anything on their servers.
Tech stack: Ruby, Golang, Redis, PostgreSQL, ES6 + React

#25A full baccarat implementation for node and the browser.
It's plain ol' js. I used it as an opportunity to give jest a try. It took a single Saturday to get the general concept down, then some bug fixes over the next few days as I misunderstood the drawing rules.

Also TextJawn, my first production ready native Android app. It was also done in a single Saturday with some bug fixes going out over the next week. "TextJawn enables password protected remote management over SMS.
Locked out of Google? Forget your phone? No problem! TextJawn lets you ring, locate, and check your messages by sending a text message."

#26I built discurse (https://discurse.xyz/) for learning PHP/Laravel. It's mostly a clone of reddit, with the key difference that you can post anonymously, though you need to make an account for upvoting posts.
I posted about it on HN and reddit previously, but it didn't get much traction, so it's pretty much dead as of now.

#27https://canpicker.com/ It's taking longer than a weekend though. My usual projects are more complicated and I wanted to do something brain dead and relatively instantly gratifying. Clojure + clojurescript(react based).
You should make all the radio buttons in the same style. Took a minute to figure out how to use the UI, which is too long.

And
Both were spun up in a weekend. They’ve changed a lot since then, but only because of how many people use them now :)
