The web has gotten boring. I'm starting a static web host where every page is remixable by default. One click and you have a copy of any web page hosted on the platform. Not only that, but the front-end code (HTML, CSS, JS) is treated as the source of truth. Whatever changes the owner makes to a page (through DevTools, some custom JS, or clicking a button that does something) is saved permanently to the DB. This make…

You can also add page versioning and forks to this!

If I want to see an older version of the page I like: click click click I have a (like really) permalink

If I wanna modify a page that someone else made, fork and edit!

It's like Github, but for our pages!

(too many exclamations smh)

I would like to code some Go. It’s been a while since my role now is way too far from the code So if anyone has an idea that want to develop or a project in Go already let me know.

The trend these days seems to port cli applications to golang. I investigated porting rubygem's bundler to golang, but hit speed bumps (like in order to install the gem, you need to run ruby code).

I'd be interested in trying this out again.

Sounds pretty exciting. Be sure to implement Webmentions and IndieAuth and other IndieWeb stuff as a first step so you're not re-inventing things that are solved, but need more traction.

The web has gotten boring.

This is so true. Before it was boring, it was hard to use, though. I think that's why the federated/decentralized/indie stuff still struggles to find mindshare.

I'd love to work with people who want to find ways to build low cost 802.11ax mesh implementations. Think high powered raspberry pis (or their equivalents) being customized to compete with the crazy high costs of Orbi implementations. And I absolutely have zero interest in the monetary value here. RPi + wifi shields + fun is what counts. If you're interested, I'd love to team up! And I bring all kinds of nerdy engineering skills to boot and I'd be doing this for fun with other engineers. The goal would probably be an implementation that would one day show up on hacker news as a post for other folks to build and enjoy!

I'd be interested in that! Would be a good learning experience and a way to understand WiFi more deeply. My experience so far is mostly in cellular.

I'm an instrument-rated pilot. I'm working on a Python library to model aircraft performance with just a few numbers specific to your airplane (e.g., the drag coefficient, and some measurements). I used performance data generated by the library to fly across the entire United States at altitudes and with efficiency beyond the POH.

I am building an open source web framework comparison. The idea is to put together a project that gives an overview of how to set up a minimal viable web application from scratch via all the different frameworks. For each framework the project features a self explanatory shell script that builds a web app with routing, templates and user accounts. So there is no ambiguity of how to reproduce the results. And it is ev…

That sounds really cool, I have no knowledge of frameworks but I will definitely be a beta-testing user if needed.

I'm with a friend and we're focusing on building cool SaaS projects as a way to improve our product building skills and possibly make some money. At the moment we have a HR platform that one client is using and we're looking to build other stuff - we have some ideas in the making. If anyone wants to join

I have been looking for similar like minded focuses. I spend a lot of time in the DevOps space while always expanding to other areas. Please do reach out, sean (at) ulation (dot) com

I made a web application generation tool built on top of AWS. It deploys all the basics you need for a web application in the modern era (db, ui, api, users, groups, roles).

I'm a front-end developer / artist / father. I'm trying to make a software application for families common in my situation. I have an 8 year old daughter who is very autistic and there is a huge lack in tools I feel that a family and kid can communicate with. To that end - I am trying to make a communication board tool. In my mind think of Trello board but there's not much in the way of words only symbols. Right now I have mockups and am evaluating whether to do this in unity 2d or Web/JS. Throw everything you know of UX and common UI frameworks out the window this is for kids the world keeps turning it's back on to enable them to participate.
