I am trying to build a local setup where I spawn dockers (fetched via skopeo) as systemd-nspawn machines in userland (rootless), with network managed by a service that uses netkit devices to setup network in their empty network namespaces. I am looking at using Sommelier to manage wayland.

The end goal is to have a laptop with an easy way to build lab environments which is secure and rootless.

Mindscope 2 : https://mindscopeapp.com (iOS / macOS)

A hierarchical text canvas for organizing thoughts and taking notes. I wrote v1 years ago and now spent about year rewriting it in SwiftUI and adding all my dream features like reminders, deep linking, and lots more. Currently in TestFlight beta, nearing release.

https://github.com/DeutscheKI/jetbrains-mini-agent

Fully offline LLM coding agent plug-in for JetBrains IDEs. Use with Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf on an RTX 3090 or up. The source code is pretty short to make sure it can be audited, if needed.

I built https://forvard.org/ with Tauri + Svelte; Forvard is a accomplishment tracker where your data lives locally (think of Obsidian but for career tracking), it has a bit of smartness to summarize your accomplishments (without sending your data over the network). I'm working on fixing bugs and adding couple of features!

https://github.com/FarisZR/knocker

Knocker, an http knock based access service for your homelab that works at a reverse proxy or firewall level.

It's a more convenient albeit less secure alternative to VPNs like tailscale. It's more convenient because it whitelists the enite network, and it's less secure for that reason.

https://www.bsub.io - batch processing for developers.

You submit heavy duty jobs without worrying about infra, and we take care of execution. We're starting with PDF extraction. Audio transcoding + STT (speech to text) is next. Video transcoding will follow.

This allows you to have $5/mo VPS and get media operations figured out.

Have been working on compgeo for a few months now and came up with a neat algo for our configurator at work!
