We need to reduce the entry barrier (it's meant for companies so it needs explicit registration) so anyone can use it as a proper SaaS but so far we already have a couple clients :D

#382https://seaquel.app Month 2 of building the SQL client I've always wished I had. One feature I'm especially proud of is the visual query builder. Drag & drop to build SQL queries. There's also an entire SQL tutorial section for anyone who wants to learn or refresh SQL knowledge.

#383At the moment working on the 3rd party development tools so in the future anyone can make their game dev dreams a reality and make a simple and fun multiplayer party game for the Gaming Couch platform, ideally in only one weekend!
If you're an interested game dev that would like to beta test the dev tools, hit me up either here, via Discord (link available from https://gamingcouch.com) or by emailing me at gc[dot]community[at]gamingcouch[dot]com!
The TL;DR of Gaming Couch:
- Currently in free Early Access with 18 competitive mini-games.
- Players use their mobile phones as controllers (you can use game pads as well!)
- Everything is completely web-based, no downloads or installs are necessary to play
- All games support up to 8 players at a time and are action based, with quick ~one minute rounds to keep a good pace. This means there are no language based trivia or asynchronous games!

#384Offline first, no tracking PWA for intermittent fasting and mindful eating. It helped me lose another 3 kg in January. Spiked a native iOS version, but I really like the simplicity of just the PWA. Not sure what's next!

Having done a lot of back and forth with LLMs and at the end throwing away learnings from a conversation felt so wasteful - reposit allows you to /share a summary of the valuable learning from your LLM chat for others to discover.
At the beginning of researching a problem, your agent can search reposit just like Context7 for docs. This way, even if you opt out of sharing your data with your LLM provider (as it's all or nothing), you can choose to publicise a solution to your problem with very little effort.
I'm working on extracting valuable learnings from open-source community projects as a starting point now (with attribution), as it probably needs a larger database to be valuable for users to install and use.
You can also self-host it and share privately within the company.

#385https://sampler.meiji.industries/ I built a TUI sampler which cherry-picks my favourite features from modern & vintage hardware samplers, DAWs, plugins, outboard FX gear, and DJ equipment. If you know what an AKAI MPC Live, MPC 3000, SP404, SP1200, BOSS RC-202, Alesis 3630, Serato Sample, S950 filters, and stem separation does, then you'll love seeing these "greatest hits" up in a terminal interface. Last year while…

#387I built a time tracking app and control panel for ourselves at our company out of frustration (it was very basic, for compliance with spanish law) and eventually we just fixed so much stuff and added so many features that we just released it as a product https://workstamp.eu We need to reduce the entry barrier (it's meant for companies so it needs explicit registration) so anyone can use it as a proper SaaS but so fa…

#388I'm making a suite of simple Windows tray apps that do just one thing. They often have existing equivalents but I think my version is better and/or simpler ;-) All work starting with Win7. The first three are: - miniWake: keeps the computer awake Alternatives: Powertools; USB mouse jigglers Features: installs without admin rights; triggers invisible mouse events; turns off at LOCK, turns back on at LOCKOFF (saves bat…

It lets you take photos of all the animals you see to collect them, when you 'capture' a new animal, it gives you fun facts about them.
I seeded it with UK zoos, but there's no reason it can't work elsewhere.
It was built because the signage at a zoo we went to was terrible and we had no idea what some animals were, so it matches your photo with the list of animals to the best of its ability.

It is capable of creating a PCB (and outputs gerbers, bom, pick and place files), an enclosure (written in SCAD, outputs an STL for printing), and firmware, which it's able to compile using a pio runner on railway and provides a binary, but also has a webserial flasher for ESP32's.
There is a blog here, but i've been focussing on getting things finished, as I built it for a hackathon ending today.
I need to update the blog & writeup, because I have the first product it created, a bluetooth remote control. It wasn't without issues, but I have a working PCB, in an enclosure that was printed from it's design, running firmware it generated.
