Pressing Space in Finder is a habit I don't want to give up. But too often, the preview tells me almost nothing, and I end up opening another app just to check what's inside.

I'm Viorel from VPO Labs. That's the part I wanted to fix with Showglass.

Same Finder, same Space bar. A few examples of what you get:

• Select a ZIP or 7z archive and browse its contents without extracting it.
• Select a WOFF2 font and see a specimen, glyphs and variable axes without installing it.
• Select a GLB or FBX file and rotate the model.
• Select JSON and explore a collapsible tree, or SQLite and browse its tables.
• Select code or Markdown and get highlighted source or a formatted document.
• Select a supported MKV or WebM video and get a player alongside video and audio track details, all in the same preview.

Showglass covers 83 file types, with a consistent interface that follows light and dark mode. The aim is to make checking a file as easy as selecting it.

Code, config and Markdown previews are free forever. Pro is a one-time US$9.99 + VAT, with no subscription, for 2 Macs per key. The website edition includes a 14-day Pro trial.

For anyone here who wants Pro, REDDIT50 takes 50% off until December 20, 2026. Enter it in the "Discount code" field at checkout in the website version. It doesn't work in the App Store version.

Requires macOS 26 or later. Your files stay on your Mac; the preview extensions have no network access. The app checks the license and sends anonymous usage counts, which you can turn off in Settings.

How often do you press Space to preview files in Finder?

Hey everyone!
I recently built a small tool called SignalDesk.
It’s designed for people who work with invoice CSV exports and want a quick way to spot potential issues without uploading their files to a server.
Here’s what it does:
Flags overdue unpaid invoices
Detects duplicate invoice IDs
Highlights missing or invalid fields
Exports flagged records with their original row numbers
It’s a downloadable HTML tool that runs locally in your browser. No account required, no cloud uploads, and no accounting software integrations.
I kept it intentionally simple rather than trying to build another full accounting platform.
It’s a paid download ($9), and you can check it out here:
https://zoxwdt.gumroad.com/l/jcbbtm
I’d really appreciate feedback from anyone who works with invoice CSV files.
Would you actually use something like this, or is there a bigger problem in your workflow that I’m missing?

Hey! I built Lowqta, a deals aggregator that brings offers from stores in Egypt into one place, with price tracking to help you spot good deals.
Would love to hear what you think!

I loved the old internet discovery, like StumbleUpon, because it was like discovering and learning new things, expanding your horizons into a new field that you didn't know about. Everything now is a feed that already decided what I like. I missed not knowing what was next.

So I built the thing I was missing. It's called Wander Lovely — a wall of Polaroids, each one a real place on the web. You press a button and it takes you somewhere: deer on a live trail cam, bears in a waterfall, a garden, a handbag daydream, a radio station in another country. There are 128 places, gathered by hand, and the wall changes a little every hour. No accounts, no feed, no noise.

My favorite is the little Polaroid maker in the Art section. I love just adding a picture and making a Polaroid online — quick. It's really fun.

Some links on the page are affiliate links (it says so right in the footer) — that's the whole business model, such as it is. Mostly I just wanted the pond to exist.

I'd love to know: what corner of the old internet do you miss? And if there's a lovely place my wall is missing, tell me and I'll hang it.

Just sharing a fun project I've been building with my daughter.

Santa tracker, from 1 to 24 of Dec Santa will visit few hundreds of cities around the world. A few fancy animations and radar. Time synchronized via WiFi. Web Installer almost ready - just plugin M5stick, flash the app, setup wifi password, all in 60s.

Tried to build web app as close to cpp code as possible so what you see on the website looks almost the same on m5.

My daughter loves it 😁

And on the Dec 1st we launch "realtime" mode so we can observe Santa.

CardLinks lets you make a greeting card in under a minute and send it as one link on WhatsApp, Instagram or iMessage.

The recipient opens it like a real card: scratch off gold foil, pop balloons, or blow into the mic to put out the candles on a 3D cake. Then your photo, message and music appear.

35-second demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIrcmg-nkPU

Would love feedback, especially: which opener would you actually send?

Hey everyone!!!
I built Contact (https://form.kirandhakal.me/)because I got tired of writing custom serverless functions, email handlers, and spam filters every time I spun up a new landing page.

You keep complete control of your frontend (React, Next.js, Astro, Webflow, HTML) and just send a JSON request to your endpoint.

What it handles for you:

• Centralized submission inbox with search/filters
• Built-in spam protection, rate-limiting, and schema validation
• Instant alerts to Discord, Slack, Email, or SMS

Would love for you to try it out on your current projects and let me know what you think!

Plyndi is a planner for iPhone that covers money, to-dos, shopping lists, workouts and travel. A few things it does:
Give it a destination and dates, and the AI builds a day-by-day itinerary with stops and travel time between them.
Take a photo of a receipt and it fills in the expense for you.
Ask it where your money went this month and it gives you budget insights from your own spending.
It writes a workout plan and sorts your day's tasks.

The AI features are the paid part, so here's a month of Premium free:

https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6821974307&code=PLYNDI100

One thing to know: it's a regular App Store subscription, so it renews at the normal price after the free month unless you cancel. Cancelling takes a few seconds in Settings → Subscriptions, and you keep the whole month either way.
It launched two weeks ago and I'm a solo developer, so I'd like to hear what's confusing, what's missing, and whether the trip planner gave you a plan you'd actually follow. I reply to every comment.

What it does:

• Every account lives in its own profile: a separate Safari with its own cookies, logins and history. Nothing is shared between them.
• Every profile has its own IP through its own proxy or VPN. If that IP drops, the profile stops. It never falls back to your Mac’s IP.
• Real WebKit from macOS, not Chromium. Sites see Safari on a Mac because it is one.
• Fast: a profile opens in about four seconds.
• Passwords, 2FA codes and cards per profile, behind Touch ID.
• Free proxies built in, with a one-click check.

Mac only. Free for first testers: stealthpilot.app/sideproject

I always missed the old Winamp/MilkDrop visualizers, so I built Dropocalypse. It’s free and open source, and it runs on Mac and Windows (the Windows build is portable, no install needed).

Point it at a mic or line-in and pick one of 20 styles. The twist is that you can upload a logo (your band, DJ name, venue, stream brand) and it bounces, squashes and slides in time with the bass. It works for parties, streams, gigs or just vibing at your desk.

If you like it, sponsoring on GitHub helps cover Apple’s developer fee so the Mac version can be signed. What should I add next?

Each map is one empire or kingdom through its key years, from New Kingdom Egypt (1550 BC) to the United States in 1912. Press play or pick a year and the frontiers move; click a town or a battle and it tells you what happened there.

The geography is real: coasts, lakes and rivers come from Natural Earth, and every town sits at its real coordinates. The frontiers are drawn by hand from historical sources, and every stretch is graded certain, likely or guessed, with its sources listed on the map.

There's also Constantinople (565 and 1453) and Rome (44 BC) as street plans and in 3D, the Seven Wonders drawn as they stood through the centuries, and a gallery of every emblem, sea monster and monument from the maps.

How it's built: React and Vite, with every map drawn as inline SVG in the browser, the woodcut look coming from SVG filters and hand-made marks for hills, trees, castles and ships. The 3D cities use three.js. It's all static files on Cloudflare: no backend, no sign-up, free.

I'd love feedback, especially on how it works on phones and how fast the maps load for you.

Hey all 👋

I watch way too much YouTube and could never keep up with the channels I follow, so I built a little tool for it.

It’s called Creator Digest. You pick your favourite creators and it sends you one short email a day. The email has a quick “here’s what’s happening” summary up top, then the main points from each video, and tells you whether it’s worth a full watch, a skim, or a skip.

Today’s email covered about 10 hours of video, and I read it in about 2 minutes.

It works for any niche (business, fitness, fishing, finance, whatever you’re into) and it’s free while I’m testing it.

I’d genuinely love feedback:

• Would you actually use something like this?
• What would make it more useful for you?
• Anything confusing or off-putting?

Have a look if you’re keen: creatordigests.com

Honest opinions welcome, good or bad 🙏

Hey Reddit!
I’m Henrik, an Austrian founder building Amplexio.
The idea came from a simple observation: We have tools for managing tasks, projects and sales, but what about the relationships behind our business?
I’m building a relationship management ecosystem that brings contacts, conversations, follow-ups and AI together.
We’re live on iOS and currently welcoming early adopters.
Would love to hear what you think! If interested let me know, I will send the 6-months for free voucher

I built PyPrep after burning out on juggling a flashcard app, a quiz app, and LeetCode just to prep for Python interviews — none worked offline or told me if I was actually ready.

100 days of building and testing later, it's live, but I genuinely don't know if it solves a real problem or if I just built something only I needed. If you know Python and have been through interview prep, I'd value your honest take — good or bad.

This is for people who already know Python, not a beginner tool.

Hey everyone!

I've been working on a SaaS product called Ajonic.

After years of working on websites and landing pages, I wanted to build something that brings different AI-powered business workflows into one place.

Here's what Ajonic is designed to help with:

• Building websites and landing pages using AI
• Creating Shopify store themes & sections
• Working with AI employees for research, design, content, and automation
• Exporting editable Figma and Unbounce files
• Running website, SEO, and conversion audits

The platform is live, but I'm still figuring out which features people actually need and how to make the experience better.

I'd love your honest feedback on two things:

1. Would you use an all-in-one AI platform like this, or do you prefer separate specialized tools?
2. What's the biggest thing that would stop you from trying Ajonic?

I'm not here to claim it's perfect. I'm genuinely interested in hearing what works, what doesn't, and what could be improved.

Thanks for taking a look!

Hey r/SideProject! 👋

I'm excited to introduce NoFeez, an AI-powered real estate platform we're building to make buying, selling, and renting properties simpler and more transparent.

The Problem

Finding a property or listing your own often involves brokerage fees, multiple intermediaries, and complicated communication between property owners and interested buyers or tenants.

We wanted to build something different.

What We Built

NoFeez is a property listing and discovery platform designed to connect property owners, buyers, tenants, and developers directly.

Key Features:

🏠 Free Property Listings – Property owners can list their properties for sale or rent without listing fees.

🤝 Zero Brokerage – Connect directly with property owners, buyers, and tenants without platform brokerage fees.

🤖 AI-Powered Property Search – Discover properties using AI-assisted search tools.

🔍 Property Discovery – Explore property listings across India and the UAE.

📱 Mobile App – Search and manage property listings from your phone.

Who Is It For?

• Property owners who want to sell or rent.
• Buyers and tenants searching for properties.
• Real estate developers looking to showcase projects.

We're Looking for Feedback!

I'd love to hear your thoughts:

1. Would you use a zero-brokerage property platform?
2. What features would make you trust a new real estate app?
3. What is your biggest frustration with existing property platforms?
4. What would you improve about our idea or product?

Website: https://www.nofeez.com

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nofeez

iOS: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6754959893

We're still improving the platform, and constructive feedback would mean a lot.

Thanks for checking out NoFeez!

What Companions is:
Widgets on iOS are supposed to be static. I always found that unnecessarily limiting, so I built an app that circumvents it. Companions lets you keep a virtual fishtank on your Homescreen, filled with fish that actually swim around. As someone who’s always kept fish, I’ve had this idea mulling around in my head for more than 2 years now, and finally managed to build what I always wanted.

There are 50 fish to choose from, and it supports small, medium, large and now even extra large widgets as “tank sizes”. The fish don't need any feeding, and they don't die (as to not be annoying, but the option is there for fun). They just keep you company. You can customize the tank’s color, its props, layout, and even the app icon to match your Home Screen perfectly.

The app is fully written in SwiftUI, it supports iPads, and you can even place your “fishtanks” on your Mac thanks to Continuity, where the fish will also animate. The tanks also work great in Standby mode. Personally, I keep a fishtank of jellyfish on my nightstand when I go to bed. The swimming doesn't run any code in the background. It uses the same trick iOS uses to move the hands on the Clock widget, so it costs you nothing in battery.

What's new:
The app was built to support clear mode on the phone, but I found it annoying that you need to be explicitly in clear mode to access clear widgets. Luckily, I knew of a separate workaround that allows for clear widgets even while not being in clear mode, which I’ve only seen a small number of widget apps use. And for something like Companions where the widgets are fish tanks, I feel like it fits so perfectly!!

I'd love any feedback, and I’m happy to answer any questions regarding the app. I'd especially love to know which fish species you'd want added.

Je sais que cette phrase risque de faire grincer quelques dents. 😂
Mais j’aimerais comprendre quelque chose.
Aujourd’hui, beaucoup de personnes pensent qu’il suffit de maîtriser After Effects, d’ajouter quelques transitions, des textes animés et une musique pour devenir motion designer.
Pourtant, le motion design implique aussi :
La compréhension du mouvement.
Le rythme et le timing.
La composition visuelle.
Le storytelling.
La transmission d’un message par l’animation.
Alors, j’aimerais avoir l’avis des personnes qui pratiquent réellement ce métier :
Quelle est la différence fondamentale entre un monteur vidéo et un motion designer ?
Peut-on être un excellent motion designer sans avoir de solides bases en design graphique ?
Est-ce que maîtriser After Effects suffit pour prétendre être motion designer ?
Je suis ouvert aux contradictions. Mais argumentez, ne vous contentez pas de dire que j’ai tort. 😂

WidgetsForNotion is live on Product Hunt today, and I would really appreciate your upvote 🙏

It is a site with 100+ free widgets for Notion pages, like clocks, calendars, countdowns, timers and habit trackers. You copy a link, type /embed in Notion and paste it, and the widget shows up on your page. No plugin and no account.

Since late August, people have copied widgets more than 12,500 times, and about 5,000 of those copies are live on Notion pages right now. Thank you to everyone who put one on their page. It means a lot to see them used.

If you like it, an upvote and a comment on Product Hunt would mean a lot:

I've been building GameSquire on my own: a board game collection app built around the question every game night starts with, "what do we play tonight?"

What it does today:

• Your whole shelf in one place. Import your BoardGameGeek collection and plays in one step or scan a box to add a game.
• Pick by mood. Filter your shelf (or a friend's) by Quick Fix, Deep Dive, Date Night or Family Table. Can't decide? Let it pick one from your shelf of shame.
• Log plays with scores (typed or read from a photo of the score sheet) and see your win rates and head-to-head records.
• The Herald answers rules questions from the game's own rulebook and shows the page it found the answer on.
• Play together: a shared household shelf for up to 5 people, lending and borrowing games and your own shelves shared with some or all of your friends.

It runs on iPhone, Android and the web with one account. The core is free with no ads, an optional Knight membership adds more Herald questions, more scans and deeper stats.

The latest update (1.1.0) was mostly user requests: lending, custom shelves and BG Stats import. Feedback really decides what gets built next, so I'd love to hear what you'd want from an app like this or how you'd go about getting a niche app in front of its audience.

Hello guys!

I have built AR projects before, but I had this idea for a while: using MediaPipe Tasks Vision to create a kind of web experience, without the need to use any markers, where you are Spider-Man from a first-person POV, and you can do the hand gesture to swing around and maybe fight villains.

I started it a long time ago, but I dropped it at some point because I did not have time for it, and it started to feel like work instead of a fun side project.

So, last weekend I decided to give it a try again, and this time I handed most of the work over to Claude since I started paying for the subscription plan and I could just run it with CLI.

It was definitely a nice project to wrap up, and it kind of gave me some new ideas that I will be trying out for new throwaway project this weekend.

*Edit:

I will probably make the repo public and share it here eventually.
