I built a free USCIS form-filling tool (no Adobe required) USCIS forms still use XFA PDFs, which don’t let you edit in most browsers. Even with Adobe, fields break, and getting the signature is hard.

So I converted the PDF form into modern, browser-friendly web forms - and kept every field 1:1 with the original. You fill the form, submit it, and get the official USCIS PDF filled.

Working on https://greatreads.dev/ A place to aggregate and find articles from developers' blogs. Always on the look for new sources to be added. If you have a blog or read any that you want to recommend. Just let me know.

If I am missing something, isn't this the whole purpose of hacker news to be a link aggregator for technical/developers?

Hacker News is mostly anything tech related. That are links from news websites, github projects and etc.

My project is just for reading individual blog posts from fellow developers. There is also a lot of filtering capabilities as well.

Puzzleship - a free daily puzzles website with the archives paywalled. Right now it has Logic Grid Puzzles, Zebra Puzzles and a dozen of Solitaire variations. I'm pretty proud of the LGP generator algorithm and some experienced players also liked the way the puzzles are constructed. Launched in early December last year.

Still an AI time tracker that watches your screen.

Currently experimenting with a proactive agent, Don, that pops up like clippy and also works over email.

I've been working on an iOS camera app to take natural-looking photos with reduced post-processing. The goal is take photos that look like what you see.

I just updated the RAW pipeline and I'm really happy with how the resulting photos look, plus there's this cool "RAW+ProRAW" capture mode I introduced recently.

I initially released it early last year and have been using it as my main camera app since, but I haven't mentioned it in one of these threads before. Unfortunately this post has come just a bit early for my most recent update to be approved; there's some nice improvements coming.

https://inSolitaire.com

I'm enjoying building a website with solitaire and puzzle games.

I am currently rewriting the engine for the fourth time and plan to add 400 games to the platform in the coming months, as well as social features such as daily challenges, awards and leaderboards.

My main goal, however, is to make this project the largest collection of free modern solitaire games available for mobile devices and desktop computers.

So far, the project has been incredibly exciting, and I've learned so much!
