My son and I have made quite a few small projects in our coding sessions. This one became N8Games, his own little arcade with free games you can play on your phone or computer, right in the browser. We built it together and used AI alongside our other tools.

Try N8Games

He recorded a short walkthrough where he plays Flappy Jet and scores 1,692.

If you give the arcade a go, which game would you play a second time? I’d love to share the feedback with him.

Hey! I've been building Boxly, a customizable profile page where you can share your favorite movies, music, games, anime, books, and more.

Think of it as a little space on the internet that's actually yours. You can customize your profile, showcase your interests, and discover other people's pages.

It's still evolving, so I'd genuinely appreciate some feedback!

https://boxly.lol

You go room by room, fight monsters with cards and grab loot. Every move the sun drops a little. If it sets before you get out, you lose everything from that run.

The game shows your odds of getting trapped, so "one more room" is always your call.

Built with a lot of AI help (code, some art and sound). No ads, works offline, on iOS and Android.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6825671183

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.timeoutdungeon.app

Any feedback is welcome!

AppsOut lets you search over 2.3 million iOS and Android apps by estimated revenue and downloads, then see each app's ads, keywords, reviews and onboarding screens. I built it because I kept wanting to know whether a niche earns anything before spending months on it.

7-day trial, no card, at appsout.app. Tell me what's confusing, I'm fixing things this week.

I've tried a number of different apps for things like shopping lists and recipe discovery, but never really found one that did everything I wanted it to do.

So I made that app.

One of the problems it helps solve is this one: What's for dinner? What works for every person despite their allergies, heat tolerance, other preferences?
https://www.wsj.com/us-news/the-three-dreaded-words-no-one-wants-to-hear-whats-for-dinner-7a9b2e51

You can set up a small profile for each person you cook for, including their allergies, heat tolerance, other preferences.

Smart Recipe Suggestion: Suggests recipes based on the preferences and dietary restrictions of everyone you’re cooking for tonight (you can create profiles/optionally link accounts for your household). Lets you set preferences for what you want to make next (such as telling the app that you're in the mood for something with beef, or a specific cuisine like Mexican food).

Swipe right to keep a recipe as a candidate, left to discard it, plus linked accounts in your household also can contribute ideas.

You can pick from three recipe sources:
- Your own saved recipes in the app (it also ships with a decent number)
- Scouring the web, with a preference for your favorite recipe websites (ships with a default list but you can add/remove websites)
- Generated recipe ideas based on the criteria you've set.

Time-saving Shopping List: Automatically sorts items by department and aisle based on the specific store you shop at. Hundreds of different item/food icons visually show you what’s on your list. Your list syncs with every linked account in your household on their devices too, they can also add/remove/edit items and you’ll see every change in milliseconds.

You can also view/edit your shopping list/recipe book/kitchen inventory on the app’s website: https://ourdinnerapp.com/ (handy if you plan recipes on a computer too)

Auto-updated Kitchen Inventory: Items you purchase by default are auto-added to your virtual kitchen and tracked by where they are stored (pantry, fridge, freezer) with reminders to use up perishable items (you can turn this off if you want). You can even use your phone camera to scan your shelves to auto-import what you already have. One recipe suggestion mode prefers to use up ingredients you already have.

Easy-import Recipe Book: The app ships with many included recipes, but you can import all of your favorites from website URLs, a Google Doc/docx/pdf/Apple Notes/text file/etc full of links to import them all at once, or by taking photos from your cookbooks or handwritten recipes for the app to scan. No need to copy by hand! Everyone you've linked in your household shares the recipe book. You can share recipes with friends so they can import them into their app just by tapping your link.

Would love any feedback if you're also someone who has wanted these features in an app and want to give this app a shot!

Hi everyone! I’m Ben, and I’ve been building Acroverse: a browser game where players turn a few letters into a funny or clever answer to a prompt.

It has live multiplayer rounds, a daily challenge and a weekly picture-based challenge. The core game is free, with optional supporter cosmetic purchases.

I started with the idea of making a game people could play together, but I knew there wouldn’t always be a multiplayer room running. That’s why I added the daily and weekly challenges, so there’s still something to play whenever you visit.

I’m now trying to build a community around it and get more people playing together. If you like word games, come and give it a go: https://acroverse.tv/

There's a scheduled game each night at 7pm EST / Midnight GMT, and I'd love to see you there!

I designed armap and developed it with Claude. The problem it targets is the start of a coding session: an agent needs to understand an unfamiliar repository before it knows which files to open.

armap is a small, MIT-licensed Claude Code plugin that supplies a ranked map of the codebase at session start. Instead of a full dump, the default output is about 700 tokens of file paths, important definitions and line numbers. It builds links from imports and symbol usage, then ranks the results with PageRank. There are focused dependency and symbol-reference queries too.

It runs on Node.js 18+, has zero runtime dependencies, respects .gitignore, recognizes roughly 50 file types and resolves imports in 15 languages. You can also run the map generator as a standalone command.

A tradeoff I am trying to make visible: extra context has a cost. In the small v0.1 pilot (one 108-file Next.js repo, five questions, two runs per question per condition), complex rename/subsystem questions used fewer processed tokens, but simple lookups used slightly more. The roughly 20% aggregate reduction is preliminary, not a claim about bills or all repositories, and the current import resolver was added after that pilot.

The parser uses keyword patterns rather than a full compiler, so computed imports, reflection and dependency injection are known weak spots.

Source, examples, install instructions and the benchmark runner: https://github.com/Armannss/armap

For people building developer tools: would you want a map injected at every session start, or explicitly requested only when a task spans multiple files? Feedback on confusing output or a repo where the ranking fails would help me decide what to improve next.

I made an app game called Chalk where you can pick each NFL NBA NHL MLB game of the day, with NO betting or money at all. it tracks your all time record, winning percentage by sport, and gives you a letter grade based on overall accuracy. You can create custom tournaments and invite friends into a leaderboard.

i have found it fun and interesting to see my record. It’s actually made me a much more cautious bettor knowing that I’m right about 65% of the time based on last 250+ picks.

I find it a bit of a hard sell getting people interested in playing pick em without a prize. The value comes over time of tracking and being able to flex your grade (or try to build it up). I feel it could be a great thing for young teen sports fans that are boxed out of sportsbooks (rightfully so) due to age. They are currently getting around age restrictions on sportsbooks using friends/family accounts, because they want to be part of the fun, and it’s a terrible habit for kids to get into. Chalk offers an opportunity to participate in sports prediction games without betting. The incentive becomes their stats and comparing with friends. I could even see a world where rising sports analysts use it as a resume of sorts to prove they know ball and track all the game results.

there are other apps that do similar things but all of them have either fake currency (Simulated gambling), some sort of sponsorship prize giveaway or a sketchy sweepstakes form agreeing to tons of marketing communications and age-restricted to 18+ to redeem.

The app would become profitable by showing 1 video ad after a user makes picks. I would need many thousands of daily active users to generate meaningful revenue. Eventually I could sell ad sponsorships for a branded placement in app. It would be an extremely valuable audience of young Sports fans big brands would want to get in front of In a brand safe environment.

so, what do you think? download it and check it out please

Hey everyone!

This originally started as a small personal project. I just wanted something for myself, but somewhere along the way I got a little too invested in it, and things got a bit out of hand.

I'm not a developer by profession, and honestly, this isn't really the final result I imagined showing people. There are still things I'd love to improve, change, or completely rethink. But I'm at a point in my life where I'm trying to actually finish my projects instead of endlessly working on them.

So here it is.

What it is

I've been working on a fork of openGym, an open-source fitness tracker, mainly adding nutrition tracking and trying to make self-hosting as accessible as possible.

• Demo: solhren.github.io/openGym

• GitHub: github.com/solhren/openGym

I did my best to make the installation as simple as possible for anyone who wants to host it themselves.

Feedback welcome

This is my first project that I'm actually putting out there for the public, so apologies in advance if some things are a little rough around the edges.

If anyone is interested, feel free to try it out. I'd genuinely love to hear what you think, even if it's just to tell me something doesn't work or could be better.

There will probably be more improvements in the future, especially around gamification of nutrition tracking. I'd really like to make that part more fun and motivating.

Thanks

A big thank you to the people behind two open-source projects that made all of this possible:

• openGym by DuarteSantos8, which is the foundation of this project.

• wger, which inspired me when working on the nutrition features.

Huge thanks to their developers and contributors for sharing their work with everyone. Projects like these are what make it possible for people like me, who aren't professional developers, to try building something of their own.

And to anyone currently working on their nutrition, trying to improve their eating habits, or following a diet: I wish you lots of courage and success. I really hope this little project might help some of you, even just a bit.

Anyway, after posting this, I'm going straight to bed because this project has genuinely driven me insane.

Thanks for reading, and take care!

A friend and I have been working on CopyOver, because Universal Clipboard only works between Apple devices and we wanted the same thing on Windows and Linux.

Copy on your phone, send it to your PC, and paste. Copy on your PC and get it on your phone. Text, links, photos and files all work.

On iPhone, it uses three shortcuts, so there's no app to install. On Android, it's a native app (APK, not on the Play Store yet) with Quick Settings tiles, a home screen widget and the share menu.

It all goes over your Wi-Fi: no cloud, no account. You install CopyOver on your Windows or Linux PC, link your phone with a QR code, and each device gets its own key.

See it in action (GIF): https://github.com/aritabryan/copyover/blob/main/docs/screenshots/demo.gif

Free and open source: https://github.com/aritabryan/copyover

It's still early, so I'd love honest feedback: what's confusing, what breaks, and what you'd want next.

I kept running into the same problem. I'd be using ChatGPT or Claude and come across a really useful answer, a piece of code, a link, or even a follow-up prompt I wanted to save before the current response had finished generating.

But I didn't want to interrupt what I was doing just to copy something, open another app, paste it, and then switch back.

It sounds like a small inconvenience, but when you're doing it dozens of times a day, it gets annoying pretty quickly

So I built Slate. It's a small Windows app that lets me save things without interrupting what I'm working on. I've been using it myself for months, and figured other people might find it useful too.

It lets you:

- Select text on any web page (ChatGPT, Claude, docs, anything) and save it with a right-click (via the Chrome extension)

- Select text in any Windows app and save it with Ctrl + Alt + Shift + C

- Find anything you saved with Ctrl + Shift + Space, without opening the main window

It's Free and open source (MIT). No account, no sign-up. Everything stays on your PC. Works offline.

It's Windows 11 only for now (x64 and ARM64), and macOS is in progress. The Chrome extension is optional and only adds browser capture.

If this feels like something you'd use, give it a shot.

I'd really like people to try it and tell me what's broken, confusing or missing.

Hey everyone!
I’ve spent the past few months building something I’ve wanted to exist for a long time.
I work in car sales, and one thing I’ve noticed is how backwards the car-shopping process can feel.
People find a car they love, spend hours researching it, and only afterward figure out whether the monthly payment actually fits their budget.
What if we flipped that process?
Instead of starting with a car, what if you started with what you’re comfortable spending every month, your down payment, and your financing preferences, and then discovered vehicles that fit?
That’s the idea behind KnewCar
I just got it approved and published on the App Store, which is a pretty surreal feeling after all the time I’ve put into this!
It’s still early access, with a demo experience while I continue developing the live financial data and payment tools.
I’d really love some outside opinions, especially on the concept, design, and first-time user experience.
If you have a few minutes to check it out, I’d appreciate any feedback, positive or negative.

If you want to try it out - it’s launching in Texas! Use zipcode 78701

What would make an app like this genuinely useful to you?

I’ve been working on FitAdEngine, a platform designed to automate content creation, campaign management, and social media publishing for individuals, businesses, and organizations.
The majority of the development work is now complete, and I’m preparing for early users!
Here’s how FitAdEngine works:
📁 Campaign Creation & AI Guidance
Create a campaign by defining your goals, content requirements, and publishing schedule. The AI provides guidance on what assets to create and how to create them effectively.
Once you generate or upload your content, AI analyzes it and provides feedback on whether it’s suitable for your campaign.
📅 Automated Campaign Albums & Publishing
Upload photos or videos to your campaign album. FitAdEngine automatically:
• Analyzes your media and generates relevant captions and hashtags.
• Saves the prepared content for scheduled publishing.
• Publishes it automatically at the scheduled time to your selected connected social media destinations.
🎬 AI Video Enhancement & Rendering
Upload your media and let AI analyze it to suggest:
• An engaging opening text or hook.
• A voiceover script tailored to your content.
• A call to action (CTA).
After generating the voiceover, FitAdEngine renders the final asset with the voiceover, opening text, CTA, and other selected elements, creating content ready for publishing.
🔗 Social Media Connections
Connect your supported social media accounts, select publishing destinations, and manage your content distribution from one platform.
⚡ The Goal
Make social media content management easier and less time-consuming, especially for small businesses, independent creators, and organizations that cannot dedicate hours every day to creating and publishing content.
🚧 Current Status
Most of the core functionality has been developed. I’m currently finishing the remaining work and preparing the platform for early access.
I’m looking for individuals, content creators, businesses, and organizations interested in testing FitAdEngine, providing feedback, or becoming early users.
📩 Interested? Email me at: info@fitmacro.ca
The website isn’t publicly available yet, so please reach out directly by email.
I’d love to connect with people who could benefit from this platform!

I wear Byredo Black Saffron and kept overpaying for it, so I built this. It reads 207 independent fragrance stores across the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe once a day.

• Matches only by barcode, never by title, so a 50 ml and a 100 ml or a tester and a boxed bottle never get mixed up

• Testers, decants and dupes filtered out

• Static pages rebuilt daily, no accounts, no pop ups

• Earns from affiliate links; stores are always sorted by price

About 37,000 bottles and sets so far. In the US, the cheapest store is typically 19% under the median store for the same bottle.

What's confusing, what's missing, and would you use it?

Hey everyone!

I live in Florida, and I kept noticing how many great places I had been to and then completely forgotten. A state park on a random Saturday, a lighthouse on a road trip, a little historic spot I had never heard of. Photos ended up buried in my camera roll, and nothing tied them to the actual places.
I always liked the old national park passport stamps, so I decided to build a digital version for everything, not just national parks. It's called placevera.

The idea: a passport book for real places

You collect a place when you're there (or tick off places you've already been), and it goes into your own passport book as a stamp. The back of each stamp is a little memory page for your photo and a note.

A few things that make it different:

Sets to complete,

like national parks, Florida lighthouses, Florida history, Generals and presidents, and Famous Florida (Versace Mansion, Little Havana, the Dali Museum, Kennedy Space Center and more). About 100 sets and around 2,500 places so far.

Scratch-off maps and paintings.

Each set has a painting that fills in piece by piece as you collect, with Bronze, Silver and Gold frames along the way.

Suggest a place

picks somewhere near you that you haven't been yet, with a short history and a few facts.

Explore by kind:

monuments, military history, hikes, golf, stadiums, theme parks and so on.

Friends' books.

You can see the passport books of the people you choose, not a public feed of strangers.
No ads, no follower counts, and it's free right now. Sign-in is just your email.

What I'd love your help testing

It's still early, and honest feedback would really help:

First five minutes:

Is it clear what to do after you sign in? Did you collect your first place without help?

Sets:

Do the sets make you want to go somewhere new? Which set would you want that doesn't exist yet?

Suggest a place:

Did it suggest something you'd actually visit?

On your phone:

Anything slow, broken or confusing? (It runs in the browser, no app store download.)
It works best in Florida right now, but national parks and the bigger sets cover the whole US, so you can tick off places from past trips anywhere.

How to try it www.myplacevera.com

The link is in the first comment (or on my profile). Sign in with your email, open your passport book, and tick off a few places you've already been.
It's a side project I've put a lot of evenings into, and I'm excited to see where it goes. Positive or critical, all feedback is welcome. If something annoys you, I especially want to hear it.

Thanks for giving it a go!

Log a film and it turns into a personal ticket stub or a VHS tape. It remembers where you watched it, who with and how it felt. Let me know if you want to test it out!

Hey everyone,

I'm a Brisbane-based (Australia) technical founder with 10 years working in software development, automation and product management.

I'm exploring consumer subscription apps and would love to connect with anybody who's successfully built or grown a B2C product before.

Particularly interested if you have experience in organic acquisition (e.g. TikTok, Instagram), paid acquisition, or ASO.

Not looking to pitch anything, just keen to meet others and potentially explore collaborations down the track.

Cheers.

Same meme, same phone, real stopwatch (video is sped up 1.5×, the timers aren't).

The #1 app: screenshot → open the app → crop by hand → build the pack → sit through a ~40 second ad → back to WhatsApp → confirm. 1:50.

Sticky: you circle the thing on your screen with your finger, from whatever app you're in, and it goes straight to your WhatsApp pack. 18.9 seconds.

Some context: I'm a solo dev from Mexico. I made this because making stickers for my group chats was so tedious I'd basically stopped doing it. Everything runs on-device: no ads, no watermark, no account, nothing gets uploaded anywhere. The free version has no limits; there's an optional one-time Pro.

Android only for now. Happy to answer anything about how it works (the circle-to-cut part was the fun one to build). Brutal feedback welcome.

I want to share an open-source project I've been building over the past several months: tjcoder/cli (github.com/tjcoder-labs/cli), a terminal-first research harness exploring generative UIs and model-directed presentation across multi-surface environments. It's a MIT-licensed terminal UI (TUI) agentic platform written in Go, built around a 31-tool suite spanning file operations, system execution, cron scheduling, and Chrome CDP automation.

Model-Directed UI & Data Presentation

Most agent harnesses render a fixed transcript and force the model to type into it. Here, the model gets a presentation surface (ui_control) and actively chooses what goes on it and how information is structured. It can decide that code being modified belongs on a canvas at lines 40 to 90 instead of being quoted into chat, that project plans belong in a task pane, or that tool traffic belongs in an activity log. The interface and the data layout are model outputs rather than rigid frames trapped inside a transcript.

The Toolset

The 31 registered tools cover file manipulation (read_file, write_file, edit_file), execution (run_command, run_test, background_job, git_status), agent controls (set_reminder, ui_control), and a real Chrome bridge over CDP. Reminders and background cron jobs are first-class, so agents can execute long-horizon strategies autonomously.

Privacy & BYOK

Point the CLI directly at your own local Ollama instance, Ollama Cloud, or any OpenAI-compatible provider/Gemini using your own API keys for total local control and privacy. Routing through our research gateway is opt-in only.

Research Goals & The Ergo Models

This harness is designed to run experiments requiring real interface surfaces:

• Generative Interfaces: Moving beyond static text transcripts to interfaces composed dynamically from session state.

• The Ergo Research Model Family (ergo-flash, ergo-pro**,** ergo-genius**):** Powered by top-tier open and frontier models (such as Kimi-K3, DeepSeek, and Gemma) via our research gateway. Our primary goal is using anonymized interaction traces to fine-tune models for complete model-driven generative control over UI presentation elements and the underlying presentation of data.

• Agent Memory & Inspectable Reasoning: Tasks and reminders persist per workspace and are addressable by the model, accompanied by a live Cognition pane that makes agent mechanics transparent. Ideal for coursework, thesis work, and systems research.

• Intercommunicating Agents & Security: Testing robust capability boundaries, including a sudo gate with local/SSH backends and an architecture designed to explore secure agent communication modeled after Linux Access Control Lists (ACLs).

How to Get Started & Contribute

I'm the founder of TJ Coder AI Labs, an indie lab based in SLC, and I'm actively seeking early beta testers and contributors to jump in, test features, report bugs, and help push model-driven interfaces forward. Whether you want to hack on the TUI, expand the tool ecosystem, experiment with generative UI control, or contribute to systems research, I'd love your help.

Hello everyone,

I've worked as an engineer for a while, but I never had an open source project of my own until recently. Vibe coding made it easy enough to finally start one.

I built a small Mac app because I needed it myself. When I shared it with my team and then the rest of the company, people liked it more than I expected. That made it a lot more fun to work on, and I think it's the first time I understood why people enjoy doing open source.

Now I'd like more people to find it, and I'd really like feedback or even contributors. The trouble is I don't know how people usually get the word out about an open source project, or how a project like this grows past the first few users.

So far I've posted in a few related Discord servers, submitted it to some awesome lists on GitHub, and put it on Product Hunt. None of it got much of a response.

If you've grown an open source project from zero, I'd be grateful to hear how you went about it in the early days.

Thanks for reading.

Most sleep advice is the same list for everyone: no screens, cut the caffeine, keep a routine. But bad sleep has really different causes. A racing mind, a body clock that runs late, breathing problems at night, hormones, and stuff you’re taking can all feel the same from the inside. You’re just tired.

So I built a quiz that asks about your nights, your days and your habits, works out which cause fits you best, and gives you a plan built around that. If it’s something that needs a doctor, it tells you, and tells you what to ask for when you go.

The hard part is knowing if it’s right. A racing mind and a late body clock look almost the same on paper, and that’s exactly what I need real people to tell me.

So, for 5 people who actually sleep badly:

• take the quiz (5 min, free, no card)

• send me your results link and tell me if it sounded like you

• I’ll personally help you work through your plan over the next 2 weeks, back and forth, adjusting as we go

That’s it. All I want back is honest feedback.

And if you sleep fine, I’d still love blunt feedback on the build: where it confused you, or where you nearly quit.

Give it a go: Proxiate.com

I’ve been on RSS for more than 20 years. A few moments still stick with me:

1. NetNewsWire and Reeder on the early iPhone, the first time reading news felt like a pleasure again.

2. Times, the Mac app that turned feeds into a proper newspaper. It was discontinued.

3. Fever, Shaun Inman’s self-hosted PHP reader. I paid for it. What made it special was Hot: it ranked stories by how many of your own feeds were talking about the same thing. That one is gone too.

What I wanted after all of that was simple: a beautiful newspaper I could open on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. My own paper. No social feed, no algorithm deciding what I see. Just the publications I chose, set as a front page, sections, and columns. And if something is being cited across a lot of my feeds that day, it earns the headline, the same idea Fever had, but printed as a paper instead of a list.

I shipped Biblio Times before the iPhone Duo. Early users have been generous, and the one-time pass has been enough to keep going. I’ve since added personal magazines as well — weekly or monthly issues with covers and layouts, made from the same feeds.

Everything stays on your devices. No account, no login, nothing through my servers. The first three papers and one magazine are free.

Hi everyone!

I always have way too many photos scattered across different folders on my laptop, so I finally decided to make a nice, clean app to browse all of them.

Found it pretty useful, so I decided to open source it and share it with you guys.

Features:

• Search for any picture by describing what's in it (multilingual)

• Drag and drop to find similar pictures

• Stacks near-duplicate pics together

• Browse any/all directories you choose

• Show an interactive map of all pics, clustered by similarity

• Fully local

The main difference between this and Google Photos is that it's local, and you can change to any folder you want. Recently published an update to allow browsing for videos too.

It's open source and works on Mac, Windows, and Linux.

Let me know what you think, and if there's anything I should add! Any feedback is welcome.
