An iOS screen addiction app. The market is pretty saturated but I think I've found a novel take that people might like. Landing page: https://reason-app.com

Love learning about crossplane and diving into its internals, so I am working on fixing issues it has on its "issues" page in GitHub.

I’ve been working on an rss, atom, json feed reader app that strives to make it a simple as possible to isolate what articles are meaningful for you.

For now it uses UX patterns to make it easy to remove uninteresting articles and keeps a record of your read and saved articles. All locally of course.

I’d like to make it into something we can share quality content with one another eventually. For now I’m focusing on making it good enough my entourage will want to use it

I'm writing a book, which covers the mental models for writing code in a functional style. The examples are in Scala, but it will be useful if you use other modern languages like Rust, Kotlin, Swift, OCaml, or Typescript.

I am working on https://yakki.ai, a Mac dictation app. I have started expanding what the users can do with it, for the moment you can record your meetings and get insights and notes. I am considering where to take it from here! competition is fierce, so I am focusing on making it better and to serve specific users that provide feedback.

If everything is local, why the subscription? That 150 is instant incentive for me to prompt my own on Claude and get a more personal outcome right away. Margin comes from a moat, and local LLM is the opposite of that, especially if you need internet to verify subscription for local use at any point.

I'm building a small tool called FormBeep[1] that sends a notification to your phone when someone submits a form on your website.

It started as a client problem, then something which I also experienced so decided to built it. It's just one small script and work seamlessly across platforms.

Curious, were you already aware of ntfy.sh (which has webhooks) when you built it?

Shit! I was not aware!

So FormBeep is designed to work with WhatsApp since most people prefer whatsapp notifications!

I am creating AI coding framework (a set of skills and scripts, really), since it seems a lot of them don't support copilot.

I don't think what I am doing is really original, but it's shaping nicely.

I am working on:

- feature folders (one folder per feature, with changelog, issues, summaries etc)

- coworkers (cli-agents, with session management)

- agents intra-response messaging

In general the goal is forcing Claude to behave, which is quite ambitious :).

I made a web-based speaking clock: https://alexsci.com/time-at-the-tone/

I had been doing lots of time-based work for a blog post and ended up annoyed that so many clocks around me were visually out of sync. Especially my microwave and oven clocks. Using the tool I got them synced up beyond what I could perceive.

It's nothing big. I wanted an offline natural language to cron/cron to natural language translator and I wanted to get some experience building MacOS apps. It's not vibe coded, but I did get good help from Claude since it's my first time building MacOS apps. It's free and no data is collected.

What's it like building native MacOS? SwiftUI or UIKit or?

I used SwiftUI.

I went full TDD with the app so it was easy enough to build the logical parts of it. The UI is fairly simple, but whenever I found that Claude did not understand exactly what I wanted, I gave it a screenshot/image of a design and it did things pretty well.
