Nice. Is it vibe coded? I am looking for a good resource for learning kannada if you know Tamil, but with a focus on spoken language.

great looking website - the alphabet portion is fantastic.

I published a project this week to be a thai to english dictionary. Translation is easy to come by but I want a page to paste a paragraph of thai and have it break down every word. That helps me learn. The site uses Wiktionary data. https://thaikam.app/

Working on a web-based local multiplayer party game platform called GamingCouch.com.

The idea is simple: I love local multiplayer games and game nights but felt that there was always too much hassle with switching between different titles and connecting 4-8 controllers to one PC or console. Jackbox worked great but they relied too much on language and didn't work when the group had people not fluent in english.

Therefore I decided to create a site that is dedicated to action-oriented party games. So no trivia or language based games. When I first showed the idea here on HN, other forums and game fairs, I received a lot of questions from fellow game devs asking if they could bring their own game ideas to the platform as well. I started to work on third-party development tools, which are now in private beta. Last Friday was a big moment as the first 3rd party game was launched on the platform!! https://gamingcouch.com/blog/protostellar-impact-launch

I'm now looking for more game devs interested in making fun party minigames, if you're interested, check out https://gamingcouch.com/developers and hit me up either here, by mail (from my profile) or by joining the community Discord and pinging me!

The TL;DR of Gaming Couch:

- Free Early Access with +20 competitive mini-games.

- Players use their phones as controllers (gamepads work too).

- Completely web-based, no downloads or installs needed.

- Every game supports up to 8 players and is action-based, with quick ~1 minute rounds to keep a good pace. No language-based trivia or asynchronous (turn based) games.

I'm working on Pawvis, visual hand-tracking mouse & voice control that's open-source and fully local on your Mac (with optional handoff to Codex or Claude Code for complex computer use tasks).

We live in the future, and I wanted to use my computer the way it's been depicted in movies for decades. It turned out more capable than I'd expected and frankly really fun to use.

a new agent/harness, mu. not ready yet but hope to let people play with it ~soon. its got very few novel ideas, but attempts to do the existing good ideas reasonably well and be as minimalist and composable and pragmatic as possible

Currently working on (yes, yet another one) Todo app that has a lot of neat keyboard shortcuts and a useful hotkey window on Mac.

I built it because all the Todo apps seem bloated and mainly, when I am working on something, I don't want to ruin my focus, so I wanted some quick way to add/cross tasks off.

And also, currently building a "clone" of Apple Music app for macOS because Apple's native App is horribly slow and has many UX shortcomings.
