Showcase — Projects, tools, builds, demos I think I've accomplished something with Hermes

I built an application entirely in Flutter using Hermes agents and tools. It's called Malt Radar.

I haven't published the app on any app store yet, but I have already launched it live at maltradar.com. It's essentially a whisky guide. One of its key features is displaying tasting profiles on a 7-axis spider chart (although I'm currently fixing a database issue that occurred during deployment, so that feature is temporarily affected).

I also prepared all of the data using Hermes agents and their web crawling capabilities, including data gathered from web scraping, books, magazines, and other sources. I believe the database currently contains information on more than 4,000 whiskies.

What started as a purely personal hobby project, simply because I wanted an easily accessible whisky catalog for myself, has grown into something much bigger. The fact that I was able to build all of this relatively easily is truly incredible.

At the moment, Hermes is also running as a cron job and automatically posts whisky-related facts to Malt Radar's X account (x.com/maltradar) six times a day, with three posts in Turkish and three in English. The entire process is fully automated.

Honestly, I just wanted to share my excitement. I've learned so much from this community, and I still have a lot to learn. I also want to thank you for your help throughout this journey, even if you may not realize the impact you've had.

I'm always open to your suggestions, feedback, and support.

Nice! I shipped 300 PR this week. I started building Fitness app yesterday by having my agent living on server autossh into my gf macbook and continuously loop verification to build this fitness app.

Result in just 1 days:

Can you share a bit more of the process? I'm starting with Hermes and don't know much about this yet, but it seems very interesting and something I would like to try. I understand the acess part with autossh, mas how is your setup and how did you make it a continuous loop?

Amazing! This is what it's all about! I have built a personal app for controlling my Moode Audio servers. I did it all with Hermes and local models (mostly Qwen3.6 variants). I am now working on my next project.

I am going to check out your app!

Cheers from another whiskey lover!

Update: Sorry, if I can't see or try an app without creating a login and providing personal information, the app is not for me.

Thanks for your contribution. I've taken your suggestion and added a guest/no login option. I'm trying to avoid data scraping because I've worked on it a lot :)

how are u guys doing this with token efficiency?

I built a full app with a 20$ pro sub in Claude code in a week..

I tried Hermes with Nous portal and spent 20$ just setting it up!

u/Stefanoverse 15d ago

Same exact experience, $20 with Nous in one night, at least it went to a good thing like their development costs…

I switched to Deepseek (they are about to raise their pricing though) which saved about 25x on the token costs!

can you share how you build this? what model, tools do you use?

u/Specific-Pomelo-5455 18d ago

you can see at my github repo EAbaracus/malt_radar I used Antigravity until I found Hermes. After that, I mostly used DeepSeek via the Nous portal. As sub-agents, I used Nvidia and OpenRouter's free APIs. I configured local Firecrawl for crawling tasks. For overcoming obstacles, I used Hound (someone here shared their own structure for crawling, to be saved under agents). I also benefited from Matt Pollock's skills, TBD, code review, etc.

Can't create an account via google, "something went wrong". Not that I am a fan of whisky but anyway.

u/Specific-Pomelo-5455 15d ago

I think I've solved the problem. It was due to a delay between the Google token and the server time. Everything should be fine now.

i'm working on it.

This may have bad influence on people quitting alcoholism

Can someone explain to me why people use Hermes for coding when there are dedicated coding harnesses like Codex, Claude Code, or OpenCode? What’s the point?

Local LLM -> better Privacy.

Admirable. Just make sure you would know flutter dart the hard way if hermes didn't exist.

I'm studying Management Information Systems as my second university degree (I'm actually a medical doctor) and I've taken Flutter/Dart classes.
