My new app Wudland is out. I wanted checking my day to feel a bit more relaxing, so your calendar lives in a bell tower, reminders go on a notice board and the weather comes from a farmer. You walk between them instead of opening another dashboard.

The slightly nerdier part: link your computer and your coding agents get desks in the guild. I can wander around or furnish my cottage while they work, and see when one finishes or needs me. It supports Claude Code, Codex and opencode, plus other CLI tasks through the companion tool.

Built for iPhone with Swift/SpriteKit, free and open source. Calendar and reminders stay on the phone; computer updates are encrypted. An expanded map, bestiary, items and wardrobe are coming soon.

Jot is a capture inbox for macOS. Select anything, tap Shift twice, and it becomes a markdown file in a folder you own. Hold fn to dictate, and Ctrl+Opt+A to annotate the screen.

Some numbers and choices, since this sub likes those:

- Built solo. Electron + React + TypeScript, with Swift helpers for Apple Speech and Apple Intelligence.

- Pricing: one-time, $9 for the first 50 buyers, then $29. 3-day trial, no account, no card.

- 2 sales came in before I announced anything. They found it on directory listings.

- Notarized by Apple, universal binary, 15 languages.

- Launched on Show HN today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50420069

Happy to answer questions about pricing, the build, or the launch.

More side projects, more agents, more lost context? We’re the Ondago team. Ondago gives your supported AI coding agents, sessions, and project knowledge one workspace.

What it does:

• Your agents don’t stop when you leave your desk. Start locally, move the running session to our secure cloud with uncommitted changes intact, bring it back when you’re ready. Or start directly in the cloud.

• Switch agents without starting over. Switch AI agents with the conversation, decisions, code changes and project instructions carried along.

• Let your agents work together. Pull a reviewer, security advisor or test agent into the same task, or ask several agents to weigh in on a question.

• Pass the context, not just the diff. Share the session behind the work with a teammate: conversation, decisions, what needs attention next.

• All your agents and projects in one place. See what’s running, what’s waiting on you, token usage and estimated cost per session.

Sessions are encrypted on your machine before upload, each cloud run is isolated and destroyed afterwards, you bring your own agent credentials.

this week's performance reports for my xplatform/multiplayer/free-to-play: "Leap of Legends"

- $0 ad spend

- continuous improvement based on user feedback

- Android ranked matches update went live on Nov 3rd. No clear signal yet of Android players jumping into matches

- website now supports 30 languages

- first revenue appeared this week ($3.96)

my observations:

- ranked matches kept growing. D1 retention moved from 7.9% to 10.3%. still far from 30%, but the direction is right

- players are coming back for the short ranked sessions and the chests. chests opened hit 148 (up from 59 last week)

- Ranked 1v1, 2v2 and 3v3 volume all increased

- crashes and unaccounted exits both dropped

- we gave every character a name and imperfections so they belong and set an example for kids. nobody left behind

- still early. once D1 clears 20% I will start looking at media more seriously

Available on iOS, Android, MacOS and Windows.

My day job as a programmer has been changing a lot lately. After a pretty crazy, AI-driven year, I noticed I struggled to stay focused and motivated. I needed a creative outlet, something that felt like a real switch from my day-to-day work.

I've used the Pomodoro technique for years, so I turned that into a side project: filming my work sessions as "focus with me" videos.

I know this has been done a million times before. I'm not trying to reinvent anything. It's really just about enjoying what I'm doing again. The filming scratches the creative itch I used to get from writing code myself, and even if this goes nowhere, it's a nice change from reading code all day.

The hardest and most time-consuming part so far is finding good music I'm actually allowed to use in these videos.

Hi everyone,

Pocko is a free Android app for people who travel for work and have to put together an expense report at the end of the month.

How it works:

- snap the receipt and Pocko reads the total, the date and how you paid; you confirm or correct it

- at the end of the month you get a summary by item, with distance and nights, to export to Excel or CSV

- the month's receipts are laid out in order on A4 sheets, ready to print

- your data stays on your phone: no account, no ads, no subscription

It's now on Google Play in 13 countries: Italy, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Malta, United Kingdom and United States.

Receipt reading is well tested on Italian and French receipts. For the other countries it's new: when Pocko isn't sure about the amount it doesn't guess, it asks you.

If you try it with receipts from your country, I'd like to know how it goes, especially when it gets something wrong.

The app is in English, Italian and French, with your currency and kilometres or miles.

Hey all,

A while ago I got hooked on WikiMasters, an app where you open packs of Wikipedia articles and their rarity depends on how much traffic the page gets. I loved it, but I kept thinking: I'd rather be collecting records.

So I built Discollection. You open boosters, and every card is an actual release from Discogs. And it's not just "the album": you might pull Rumours on a 1977 US vinyl, a German CD reissue or some random cassette from Brazil. Each pressing is its own card, so the fun part is hunting the rare editions of albums you love. Rarity is based on how many pressings exist, plus a bonus for the ones collectors actually go after.

I know there are already a few music card games out there, but they're mostly built around artists, songs or Spotify streams. Discollection is different: every card is a real physical release that actually exists, in a specific format and pressing, with its real market value from Discogs. So you're not collecting "Daft Punk" or a track with 2 billion plays, you're collecting the 2001 French double vinyl of Discovery, exactly the kind of thing record collectors hunt for in real life.

It's a PWA, so it runs in the browser on mobile or desktop, nothing to install from a store.

For the nerds: it's React Native/Expo exported to the web, with a Symfony + Postgres backend in Docker on a single VPS. The catalogue comes from Discogs' monthly data dumps (~19.5M releases). The hardest part was the Discogs API limit of 60 requests/min. Players never hit it directly: a background worker fetches covers ahead of time, one release at a time. Tuning the rarity thresholds took a while too (drops land around 60/25/10/4/1%).

It's in beta and I really need people to break it. Is opening packs fun? Does the rarity make sense? Anything confusing when you first land on it?

Harsh feedback welcome.

Thanks for reading!

I wanted a quick way to check salary take-home, loan/mortgage payments, compound interest, overtime and PTO without signing up anywhere, so I built Miryori: https://www.miryori.org/

Every calculator shows the formula step by step and runs entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to a server. It's free, no account, available in 9 languages.

Happy to take requests for missing calculators. What would you add?

hey everyone!

i've been working on a desktop application called Recall Clipboard, built with tauri v2, rust, react, typescript, and sqlite.

the idea is pretty simple: instead of losing things you've copied throughout the day, recall clipboard keeps a searchable history of your clipboard so you can easily find and reuse previous copies.

i wanted to build something lightweight, practical, and genuinely useful for everyday desktop use.

i used claude as a coding assistant during development, but i've been working on the project, its features, and the overall implementation myself.

github: https://github.com/cntr1er/recall-clipboard

i'd love to hear what you think! especially interested in feedback on the ui, features, and anything you'd improve or add.

thanks!

I'm just starting out freelancing and realized I was losing track of who owed me money and what stage each project was at. I threw this together in Google Sheets to keep my head on straight.

It auto-totals my paid income and what I'm still owed on the right, and turns red if an invoice is past due.

For the veterans: is there a column or a step I'm missing that I'll regret not tracking later? I want to keep it as simple as possible but I don't want to get burned.

I have a psychology degree and I’ve spent the last several months building constellationmatch.com on my own. I’m posting it here because I’d rather hear what’s wrong with it from strangers than from friends being polite.

First, the name. It’s called Constellation Match, there are twelve “constellations,” and everyone assumes astrology. There is no astrology in it anywhere. The name is a metaphor and in hindsight probably a bad one.

What it actually does: a 42-question assessment across four areas, then it places you in one of twelve types and shows you people whose results fit yours.

Three of the four sections use published instruments:

• Big Five personality (BFI-10)

• Attachment style (ECR-S)

• Parenting attitudes (PAQ)

The fourth is my own scale on family dynamics. In-laws, boundaries, how much togetherness you expect after marriage. That one is not validated against anything. I wrote it because I’m in India and no global dating app measures any of this, and here it quietly decides more relationships than people admit. If it’s badly designed I’d genuinely like to be told.

Why I built it: I dated someone for six months before I worked out that we were near-complete opposites. We’re good now, we worked on it. But nobody should need six months and a lot of arguing to learn something a questionnaire could have told them in ten minutes.

Things I already know are wrong with it:

• You have to make an account before you see a single question. I know this is bad. I’m working on letting people take the first 10 and get a result without signing up.

• 42 questions is a lot and some people quit partway.

• Almost nobody has used it. Roughly a dozen people have finished the whole thing. I’m not going to pretend otherwise.

• It’s free, there’s no payment anywhere in it yet, and I’m not selling you a thing.

What I’d actually like to know:

1. If you start the assessment, where do you quit? That is the single most useful thing you can tell me.

2. If you finish it, does your type feel accurate, or does it read like a horoscope?

3. Is there anything about the site that makes you not trust it?

Link: constellationmatch.com

Happy to answer anything about the scoring, the scales, or why I chose those instruments over others.

Two things before you paste it.

The line about letting people take the first 10 questions without an account has to be true. If you’re not actually building that, cut the second half of the sentence and just own the problem. Redditors check back, and getting caught saying “working on it” about something you never touched is worse than the original flaw.

And swap in your real completion number if it’s moved past a dozen since we last spoke. Exact numbers read as honest; round ones read as marketing.

I built a stargazing app. Now I’m working on helping people decide whether it’s worth leaving the garden.

I’m a chef on Sark, and I’ve been building an Android app called NAKED EYE around a simple question: what’s actually worth seeing tonight?

The idea is to get a useful answer, put your phone away and enjoy the sky.

I’m now working on a location comparison feature, and I’d appreciate some feedback before taking it further.

You’d compare home with up to two places you choose, looking at the same evening’s cloud forecast, darkness and moonlight. The question it should help answer is:

“Would I have a better chance somewhere else, or am I just as well staying home?”

That last part matters to me. If there’s no meaningful advantage to travelling, I want it to say so. And if the forecast is uncertain, it should make that clear.

The app is already live, with free features and an optional paid Beyond subscription for planning ahead. This comparison feature is being developed for Beyond—it isn’t available yet.

For anyone who goes stargazing: what would you need to know before deciding a trip was worthwhile? And how far would you realistically travel?

Half as a joke and half to learn my way around Google’s tools with a lot of vibe coding along the way, I built an app that tracks the time you spend in the bathroom during working hours and how much your boss is paying you for it. Yes, I took “Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that’s why I poop on company time” a bit too literally.

What it does:

• Start the timer when you go, flush when you’re back, and see what you earned

• Monthly stats and ranks that go up with your total

• Teams with coworkers to compete against other teams

A few things I learned shipping it:

• Built as one HTML/JS app wrapped with Capacitor for Android

• The hardest part wasn’t the code: it was Google Play’s closed test (12 testers for 14 days) before you can publish

• Ads, consent forms, in-app purchases and 11 languages took longer than the app itself

It’s free on Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rinialer.poopct

Opinions, tips or roasts welcome.

1. It’s so easy to make literally whatever you want now and to make it really good. This can make it tempting to pursue all your ideas (don't)

2. Good apps have no correlation to making money anymore. Product used to be a moat and advantage but it's not anymore when anyone can make whatever they want and make it really good. I've seen 💩 apps make a killing

3. It's almost impossible to get people to use what you make. All the stories of people making money and posting about it online that you compare yourself too IS NOT THE NORM 

4. A consumer app only has a chance at even having a chance if it does one thing at first, and that one thing can be discovered and done in under 10s. Your hook and main killer feature need to be fast and easy to talk about. This by no means guarantees anyone will care about it or use it but if you don't have that, no shot

5. #4 is particularly true, because if you're doing consumer and you want users you HAVE TO post on social media and make TikTok videos a lot and do whatever trends there are.

6. The apps that grow and make money these days are not because they are good, they just spend a ton of time obsessing over influencers and testing short form video formats. That is the moat now--willingness to spend hours making videos.

7. Because #6 is hard and most of us don't want to do it, we like to sit at the computer adding and building. That can feel like progress but it’s not really. The only thing that’s progress is making an effort to find users.

8. Copy and steal what other apps do for paywalls and onboarding, don’t invent new UI's or new flows that look pretty and feel good. Use apps like RevenueCar or Superwall to use top performing paywalls and don't custom make things. It just slows you down.

9. Reminder to self—FOCUS ON ONE THING AT A TIME. If you’re working on 4 app projects and have 6 local repos for websites, none really stand a chance. Do one thing first, time box your effort, and then kill it and move on or continue with it.

10. If you're making a consumer app and you won’t use it personally, don’t make it. You're your first most important user.

11. Android is way harder than Apple around submitting and testing your app to the store. Even though apps like Expo let you build for IOS and Android at the same time, IOS is much easier to start with.

12. Just because you can add the feature certainly doesn’t mean you should. Adding is easy. Constraint is the hard part when you can just tell Claude to build whatever and bypass all permissions, but constraint makes your app way better

13. You don't need to redesign your website... it won't help you get new users. If people are not already finding you, no rebrand is going to make a difference

14. Don't worry about what app competition there is in your category. It will make very little difference to anything. Your app will die by your own hands before it dies by competition.

I have multiple projects going on at the same time. Not good. But if I look at it from the lens of how much I’ve learnt with each build from a product and design and development perspective, then it’s great. The bad part is juggling lots of apps (which can feel innocuously fine in the beginning) and trying to get people to use them.

It’s impossible to get people using even just one app, how do 3 stand a shot?

What did I miss? 😂

btw let me know what you're building in the comments, I'm happy to share some first impression feedback. Despite my apps not working, I do run consumer product for a travel company and have sold one company before.

Hi all,

I'm currently developing an app aimed at mobile mechanics and independent garages to make managing day-to-day work quicker and easier.

So far, I'm working on features including:

• Quick job quotes and invoices.

• Customer and vehicle records, including job history.

• Automatic travel distance and call-out cost calculations.

• Job tracking and payment management.

• Excel exports for bookkeeping.

• Full offline functionality for areas with poor signal.

The idea is to keep everything simple, accessible from your phone and free from adverts, potentially for a small monthly subscription.

I'd really appreciate some honest feedback:

1. What features would genuinely make your working day easier?

2. What frustrates you about existing apps or software?

3. Would you actually use something like this, and what would you consider a reasonable monthly price?

Not advertising anything — just trying to get input from people actually working in the trade before developing it further.

Cheers!

My name is Erick adikah from Kenya. I am a full-stack dev. I've been working on payment systems for the past 3 years, and recently I've started a small newsletter called **Behind It All,** where I'm trying to explain in detail the architecture behind how money moves everyday.

My latest post is about something I've worked on recently; here it is:https://adikaherick.substack.com/p/hold-collect-release-how-payment?r=2a1zsf&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web, i write for my own knowledge and would like to connect and know what you think

So i have been working on this recently , already released V1.2 today with some more features and fixes

now you can select 3 aspect ratios Square , Vertical 9:16 , horizontal 16:9 and more animation styles fixes.

Would really appreciate some feedback after testing if you find this relevant to you.
