This is my side project. https://github.com/ragsagar/django-tasklist It is in a very infant stage. We used various task management apps, But most of them were too complicated. Gradually our IT Manager started using google spreadsheet to assign tasks which I didnt like much. So I started this side project, which we are using it now for managing our tasks.

Working on a new pelican (python static site generator like jekyll) theme with a minimal old book style, with renaissance serif fonts, text decorations, etc. Not a designer, so I'm having a bit of trouble but I think I did fairly well so far! Comments appreciated.

Although it's Sunday, I'm a bit late but I liked the idea so much. I found some of the projects listed here extremely interesting.

I'm in the (unfortunately long) process of learning rails among other things. I'm building a small medical office/patient management application based on what I'm learning. Here is sshot[1].

That's really cool. I wouldn't say that you are not a designer, especially considering how much I struggle with CSS/HTML5 to get an acceptable result, on my rails views.

The problem with the these kind of designs are the fonts. Most of these old-style, handwritten fonts won't work for non-Latin languages unfortunately :-(

I've been creating something completely reckless for the last two weekends.

Thanks for the kind words! Cardo is special in this regard. Not only is it beautiful, but it was specifically made for linguists / biblical studies people etc. So it includes a metric crapton of unicode glyphs. That's one of the reasons I chose it: my native language is Turkish, so I'm familiar with these types of problems :)

The python flask app finds music on your computer and scrapes as much data as as possible from sources like last.fm, discogs, iTunes and musicbrainz. You can upload music as well if you like, it will read tags and transcode it for you.

You can edit tags, search (really fast), stream and find related tunes. Ideally I want to analyse my music history to build a true smart playlist, also maybe connecting this up to sabnzbd for missing albums.

If only I could make a pretty UI...

Nice work! I've been looking for a good flight simulator for Android (X-plane is nice but feels amazingly limited). What is this written in? Would it be possible to port it to Harmattan?

Thanks! It's written in C#, we use Xamarin to target both iOS and Android. We also have a PC version running on standard MS.NET I'm not familiar with Harmattan.

That's really cool! I didn't expect that you could use Xamarin for such games. Are you by any chance planning a Windows/Windows Phone release?

I've been working on a new way of structuring data which results in fast, easy querying (here, of semantic data). Here is a screenshot of the result of a query for "all museums in Paris that have art by Picasso." http://imgur.com/Cskqx0f And here: European countries with a life expectancy less than 83, along with a graph of another one of the columns http://imgur.com/NhgVtW5 These are from the Windows app, but that m…

I'd like to hear more. Is this open source? I'm interested in semantic data, and how that's used. Do you have any recommended example sources to learn how to go it?
