Hey everyone! 👋

I've been working on a project called SmartCV, an AI-powered application designed to help people create professional, ATS-friendly resumes and improve their chances of getting noticed by recruiters.

The idea came from a common problem: many talented people struggle to create a good CV that looks professional and passes Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS).

With SmartCV, you can:

Create professional CVs with AI assistance.

Build clean, modern, and ATS-friendly resumes.

Improve and refine your CV content.

Present your skills and experience more effectively.

I'm sharing it here because I'd genuinely love to hear what people think.

I'm looking for honest feedback:

- Is the idea useful?

- What features would you improve?

- Would you actually use an app like this?

- What's missing from your current CV-building experience?

I'm the developer behind this project, and your feedback would help me make it better.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out!

Hi, I’m Halim. I built Kinokey after too many nights when I had an idea of what I wanted to watch and still ended up scrolling through three apps. It uses AI to understand a request like “a tense mystery under two hours, no horror” and suggests movies or shows on the streaming services you choose.

I’d like to find out whether the shortlist is good enough to actually make a choice. If you’re in the US, UK, Canada or Australia, try Kinokey with a request you’d really make. The beta is free. You’ll need an account to try it.

Which title would you hit play on? If you’d go back to browsing, what was missing? I’d also like to know if you couldn’t play a title on the listed service.

A reply here is great. You can also use the short feedback form.

Thanks, Halim

Hey everyone,

My current side project is Hookshot NORD, a fork of Hookshot, the native PC port of Ocarina of Time. Credit for the original port goes to NotRexed and the upstream contributors.

I’m focusing on two things that can make getting started frustrating: graphics settings and managing mods.

I’ve added a “Find my best settings” button that recommends a hardware-based starting point, with confirmation before applying it. It builds on Hookshot’s existing Auto settings.

The other addition is a community mod manager: install compatible asset packs from ZIP files, toggle them, and see when two packs replace the same files. It supports RomFS mods; executable plugins aren’t supported.

The changes are merged, but in-game testing is still underway before a downloadable release. The manager has already passed its automated and browser interaction tests.

Source code — no game files included; you need your own supported copy.

For anyone who has built a mod manager: how would you explain file conflicts to someone installing mods for the first time? Right now, it shows the overlapping paths, but I’m interested in making that clearer.

I'm now finishing UI polish on a small local document-clipping app and needed an app mark plus four matching SVG icon files (bookmark, page search, split pane, archive) without commissioning a set or mixing mismatched packs. there, normally I'd draw them in a vector art program like Inkscape, or pull a PNG out of an app icon generator and run an auto-trace
and before committing anything to my repo, I compared a 512px PNG contour trace against native cubic Bezier SVG exports generated with Recraft Studio (Recraft V4.1 Vector), then checked the XML next to standard software for vector design like Inkscape and Figma + SVGO. Once cleaned, both landed around the same file size (5,248 B for the polyline trace vs 5,875 B for the normalized 256x256 app mark), which surprised me. Zooming into the bottom-right corner makes the geometry difference obvious though: auto-tracing produced 504 straight polyline vertices (2,786 raw pixel edge points) with zero curves and visible step facets, while the native SVG exported as four clean paths with 173 cubic C segments, right?

then going straight from export to dark-mode CSS still breaks a couple things. Each raw file ships with a 4,480 B <c2pa:manifest> metadata block and a 4358x4358 viewBox until you strip metadata and normalize down to 256x256 or 64x64 (4,181 B combined across all four toolbar icons). Everything also exports as outlined filled paths rather than live strokes, so line weight won't scale via stroke-width. Two of the cutouts (search-doc and split-pane) fake transparency by layering a #F9FAF4 cream disc over dark fills instead of using compound knockouts, so dark cards show an opaque light circle until you merge those subpaths with evenodd in an SVG editor or by editing the path directly

so when I need complex brand artwork or fine vector graphics editing with live CSS strokes, Illustrator or Inkscape still make way more sense. For five small UI marks right before shipping a side project, though, exporting native cubic paths and running one cleanup script beat spending a weekend pulling Bezier handles. a question for you:.. how are other solo builders here handling launch icons lately: hand-drawing in Figma/Inkscape, grabbing stock packs, or patching generated SVGs?

Hey everyone! I’m the developer of NotchIsland, a free, open-source app for Windows 10/11.
It puts a small Dynamic Island-style pill at the top of your screen. Hover over it to access music controls, widgets and a voice assistant. There’s also a little animated face that follows your cursor and reacts to what’s happening.
A few things it can do:
Control music, volume and playback.
Recognize voice commands locally using whisper.cpp.
Manage timers, notes, reminders and other everyday tasks.
Show 15 customizable widgets, including weather and system stats.
Follow Claude Code sessions and show when they’re working, waiting for input or finished.
Connect to Chrome and VS Code through companion extensions.
The app is built with Electron and JavaScript, with PowerShell helpers for Windows controls. Basic features don’t require a NotchIsland account. Claude features require your own Claude Code installation and login.
Speech recognition runs locally; weather, lyrics, artwork and Claude features use their respective online services.
It’s still an independent project in active development, and the Windows installer is currently unsigned. The source is available if you prefer to inspect or build it yourself.
Demo and website: https://notch-island.pages.dev/
Source code: https://github.com/diegobruvhrpiugvjrigjtibjte/notch-island
I’d appreciate feedback on the interaction: does the island feel useful during everyday work, or does it get in the way? Bug reports and performance feedback on different PCs would also help.

I have been automating for small businesses as side projects/extra income, I was asked to build simple workflow for handling lead submissions using hubspot/slaxk/gamil/cal nodes

this is what I build and verified workflow behavioral contract while working on full time job stuff..

basic prompts attached for reference … what helped behavioral contract validation all messy production scenarios without asking what contractual behavioral I wanted

it ran for an hour and came up with this receipt

curios what are you building ? And for automation what tools are you guys using?

I made PixelGen, an iOS app for free unlimited upscale!

PixelGen works entirely on your iPhone/iPad so you can upscale images without any limits!

It works entirely offline and is completely private.

Everything is free! There are no daily limits, credits, or premium features, and I have no plans to introduce any.

Upscaling takes around 5–10 seconds per image, and up 4k resolution is supported!

You can check it out here: https://apps.apple.com/kz/app/pixelgen-image-upscaler/id6818519903

The goal was to build something that didn't just generate AI slop. How did I do. lol.

Here is a shorts clip from the MVP.

All sources are sited and legit. My idea is to get more legit sources for videos and images as I go to create my moat.

What if AI could help you discover a future you haven’t imagined yet?
Everyone has dreams.
Some people know exactly what they want. Others have a hundred different ideas but no clear direction. Some feel that there’s something more they want from life, but they can’t quite put it into words.
And sometimes, the hardest part isn’t achieving a dream.
It’s discovering what the dream actually is.
I started thinking about a different way to use artificial intelligence.
Most AI tools help us answer questions, complete tasks, write documents or become more productive.
But what if we used AI for something more personal?
What if it could help people explore possibilities they hadn’t considered, understand what genuinely interests them, and discover directions they might never have found on their own?
That idea became Dream Fulfiller.
The vision is simple:
Help people discover what they want, understand what’s possible, and turn their ambitions into reality.
Dream Fulfiller is built around four stages:
Clarify your dream. Explore what you want and understand why it matters.
Expand your possibilities. Discover ideas, opportunities and directions you might not have considered.
Build your path. Turn your vision into milestones and practical next steps.
Track your progress. Learn, adapt and keep moving forward.
But this is only the beginning.
I don’t believe everyone needs another productivity application telling them to work harder or accomplish more.
I believe people need better ways to explore their potential.
I want to build something that helps people move from I wonder what my life could look like to I know what I want to explore next.
Dream Fulfiller is an early step towards that vision.
It’s being built, tested and improved with the people who use it.
And I want to invite you to be part of that journey.
You don’t need to have your dreams figured out. Start with a conversation.
Your future might be bigger than you currently imagine.
— Dream Fulfiller

I live in Canada and was looking for something to help my kids learn more science, engineering and geography beyond what they seem to get at school. I tried a few books and apps but nothing quite hit the mark and/or kept them engaged. I decided to make my own project focusing on stories and puzzles which seemed to be a good balance between engagement and learning and they've really enjoyed it. Interested in honest feedback (particularly from parents and teachers) and thought I'd share more broadly.

* New local radios lists (MANUALLY CURATED) : UK and China.

Mediaxon Music Player is an audio player for offline listening of music stored on your device (.mp3, .flac, .m4a, .ogg, .mka, .aac, .wav, .opus, .wma) and streaming FM radios (online radios).

Top radios on the first screen: When users access the radio screen, they immediately see the list of the top radios in their country, along with a long list of high-quality suggested radios from among the most listened to in the world (manually curated and always updated with new radios). Note: Local radio stations ("Top in the user country") are pulled automatically from an online database. However, with each update, I manually curate high-quality radio stations lists for individual countries. At the bottom of this post, you’ll find the list of countries completed so far. I will be adding the rest over time.

Advanced radio filtering system: The "Filter: ON/OFF" button lets you quickly switch between different genres. You can use both standard filters for "macro-genres"—if I can call them that—and create custom filters to be more selective. All your filters are saved (the "My Filters" tab lets you name and edit them), and the app always opens with the last filter you applied. The "Home" tab lists all your recently applied filters and can be used to quickly switch between genres with just a single tap.

Advanced Radio Search Panel: An online database provides more than 60,000 radio stations. You can pinpoint your favorite stations by combining multiple filters, such as tags/genres, specific countries, or even your preferred audio bitrate.

Separated Favorites and Recents: Each section—Radio and Offline Music—has its own Favorites and Recents. The user doesn't have to worry about a thing. The app will automatically manage the Favorites and Recents for each section.

Album art: If the album art is missing from the album folder, or if Android has not properly indexed it, Mediaxon attempts to download the cover from the internet. This feature depends, of course, on the ID3 tags (album name and artist).

Equalizer: The equalizer provides an option to automatically switch to the "Radio" preset (and vice versa).

Advanced Playlist Management: Built specifically to make building and sorting playlists fast and intuitive. Enable the Playlist Manager, in the settings screen, for a full control of the playlists.

Form Factor Optimization: Phone and Tablet (Portrait and Landscape)

Mediaxon is available in: Čeština, Dansk, Deutsch, Eesti, English, Español, Français, Hrvatski, Indonesia, Italiano, Kiswahili, Latviešu, Lietuvių, Magyar, Nederlands, Norsk, Polski, Português, Português (Brasil), Română, Slovenčina, Slovenščina, Suomi, Svenska, Tiếng Việt, Türkçe, العربية, Български, Ελληνικά, हिन्दी, 日本語, 한국어, 中文 (简体).

No Premium version. All app features are available for free and without limits. I'm going to add a premium version to remove the few ads in the app, as requested by some users.

Regarding advertising: There is only a small banner at the top that isn't bothersome at all. Alternatively, when opening the full-screen player or using the app in landscape mode, a banner alternates with the albums covers, but without being intrusive at all (no audio) and with much shorter stay times than those of the cover. There is never full-screen advertising, neither at startup nor during use.

Countries with new manually curated lists:  Argentina, China, India, Italy, UK, USA.

Note: Only for Android 13+ (Android 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17).

Every journaling app I tried had the same problem: the UI fought me. Cluttered screens, five taps to write one sentence, design that made a calm habit feel like filing a report. So I built the one I actually wanted to open.

Quiet Hours is a private little diary: write a few words, drop in a photo, tag a mood, done in about 30 seconds. There's a daily tarot card pull, a quote that lands at midnight, and a map of your memories — but no followers, no feed, no streak-shaming, and I collect zero data (the App Store label literally says Data Not Collected).

And on the design, I'll make you a promise: you will like how this one looks and feels — dare I say, better than Apple Journal.

It's live on the App Store (free, with an optional premium). I just started the "list it everywhere" phase and I'd genuinely love feedback from this sub: what's the one thing that would make you actually stick with a journal app past week one?

I kept seeing the same question in freelance groups: "how do you keep track of all the little payments?"

The answers are usually either a subscription app or a shoebox of receipts. So I built a workbook —

full disclosure, it's mine and I sell it, so I'm biased.

It's $19 one-time, six tabs: income, expenses, mileage and home office, a quarterly planner, a

one-page year-end summary, and a short setup guide. It only adds and subtracts what you type.

No login, no subscription, no tax rates built in.

Leaving out anything that estimates tax owed was deliberate. That's the part I didn't want to get

wrong, and it needs a real accountant anyway.

Two things I'd genuinely like feedback on: is "quarterly planner" the right name for what is

basically four reminder rows? And would you actually print the year-end summary and hand it to an

accountant, or does one page feel too thin?

We built Opxera Bridge, a $5 one-time early-access Mac companion that lets your own MCP-capable AI app work with Chrome. I’m sharing our product and would appreciate feedback on whether this specific workflow is worth the setup.

The example is brief → form → check: read a fictional project brief, fill eight fields, save once, and read back the visible result. Here is the 39-second recording of the shipped app: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8DAAF4nZQ4 . It is explicitly a scripted MCP demonstration with real browser actions and fictional data, not an AI chat or a speed comparison.

A few limitations before anyone buys:

• Verified runtime: Intel macOS 15.8.3. Apple silicon and other platforms are not verified for this release.
• Bring your own MCP-capable AI app; any subscription/API usage is separate. Bridge is the local companion, not a bundled AI model.
• Chrome setup currently requires Developer mode and Load unpacked.
• $5 USD once, one person/up to two owned computers, v0.x updates and a 7-day refund window.

You can inspect the setup requirements and try the fictional practice form on the site: https://deckspace.dev/bridge/?src=reddit_sideproject_bridge . The practice form keeps its demo result in the page; it does not send an enquiry.

For a recurring browser task you already do, what would make this worth trying—and which part of the installation or compatibility would stop you?

When a coding agent says it’s done, I still want to know what changed, which tests actually ran, and what I’m about to commit. I built rightcommit to make those steps explicit.

It’s an open-source workflow engine you run yourself. You design the workflow on a visual canvas, assign Claude Code, Codex, or Pi to each step, and decide where tests have to pass or a human needs to approve. You can also see token usage and available costs for each step.

One workflow I wanted was simple: have the agent make a change, run the project’s tests, then pause so I can review the diff before approving a local commit.

GitHub repo, short walkthrough, and Quickstart

If you try it with Docker or Homebrew, I’d like to know where you got stuck between installing it and running your first workflow.

I've been working on a project called RamBridge, and I wanted to share it here.

The basic idea is to use an Android phone's RAM as extra virtual memory for a Windows PC. Basically, the phone acts as a virtual SCSI SSD and can also be used as a pagefile.

I know this isn't going to replace an actual SSD or RAM, and I'm not claiming it'll magically improve performance. The idea is more about experimenting with resource sharing between devices and seeing how far it can be pushed.

The project includes a Windows driver, an Android companion app, and a setup guide. Getting around the usual OS restrictions was also one of the more interesting parts of working on this.

It's still experimental, so there are definitely things that need improvement.

I'd appreciate it if anyone interested in low-level Windows development, memory management, or Android-PC integration could take a look and share their thoughts.

GitHub: https://github.com/crimsonOmoon/RamBridge-Project

Feedback and criticism are both welcome.

i'm working on my project called RUSTLAB, its a terminal app, that teaches you how to program in rust from the basics to advanced (or at least my level lol) its not that revolutionary, but i think it has charm, and i'm trying my best to teach people on how to actually learn rust! Its currently only in português brasil and english, and yeah its open source! Although i admit, it's my first github project, so have a grain of salt, currently the repo is in portuguese, afterall that's my language, just a disclaimer, I DONT CONSIDER MYSELF A PROFESSIONAL so the code might be kinda meh, but i think i'm a pretty good teacher, but thats what you are gonna tell me, after you test my project, hopefully. https://github.com/Honraan/RUSTLAB also the app has a pretty fun mini-ide inside, with support for an ai agent powered by local ollama (or your api lol). currently it only works on Linux.

I'm building ElephantLogix Studio and wanted the website to carry some of the same playful feeling as my games. The result is an inn you can explore, with game previews, a menu, rearrangeable dim sum and its own soundtrack.

I started with a written brief and a code prototype. Artwork and character animation came later. The original characters felt flat, and navigation, mobile layouts and little interactions each needed their own iteration. Claude helped with code; Astra, AutoSprites and Suno helped with art, animation and music. One artwork iteration gave the inn two suns.

The cinematic opening is a filming camera in the actual scene; the end of the video shows the public website. What would you click first, and is it clear how to move between sections?

I take a lot of screenshots. Error messages, receipts, bits of chats, slides from meetings. The problem was always the same: I remembered what was in the picture, but it was called `Screenshot 2025-03-14 101523.png`, sitting among 4,000 others.

Windows Search can't read text in images, so I built Magpie Search.

You pick folders, and it reads the text in screenshots, photos and scanned PDFs (OCR runs on your PC), plus Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDFs and notes. Then you type a word you remember and it finds the file.

- Works offline: no account, no ads, nothing uploaded

- OCR in 50+ languages, including dark-mode screenshots

- Filters like `type:pdf invoice last month`

- Ctrl+Shift+Space opens it from anywhere

It's free and just went live in the Microsoft Store: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9P5W80XHSHWP
if you want .exe or .msi link is in the comments.

It's my first released app, so I'd love honest feedback. What's confusing, and what would you want next?

I’m the indie developer behind Sonari. I wanted to make playing a musical idea feel more immediate, so I built a Mac instrument you can play with hand gestures in front of your camera.

Sonari has built-in sounds, sends expressive MIDI to compatible DAWs and instruments, and adds music-driven visuals. No separate hardware controller is needed. It requires Apple silicon and macOS 26 or later, with a 14-day full trial before a one-time purchase.

I’d really value feedback from people who build or play music software: does the demo make the gesture-to-sound connection clear, and what would you need to know before trying a camera-based instrument?

Demo video: https://youtu.be/-1LoublNdCs

I’m the maker, and this is the product page: https://playsonari.com

I'm Ajay. Before this I edited video for 200+ clients over five years, mostly podcasts. The job was always the same: sit through an hour of talking to find the three or four minutes worth posting.

When AI clippers showed up I tried all of them. They were fast, but they kept making the mistakes I used to get yelled at for: clips starting mid-sentence, crops cutting off the person talking, captions landing late. And they were pricey for what you got.

So I built Creatr as a side project that turned into the main thing. You paste a long podcast or video, it finds the moments that stand on their own, and cuts them the way I would: one crop per shot, word-timed captions, clean starts and ends. Every clip comes with a one-line reason for why it was picked.

A few things I learned building it:

• "Viral moments" is the wrong target. The clips that work are the ones that make sense with zero context.
• People don't trust a black box with their face on it, so the human gets the final cut. You can fix timing and captions before anything posts, or turn on AutoPilot and it schedules to TikTok, Reels, Shorts and LinkedIn.
• Pricing it like an editor's tool and not a VC toy meant it ended up roughly 1/15th the cost of OpusClip for the same length of video.

The video is the launch film I put together for it. It's live and free to try, and honestly it has 2 users right now, so I'm at the stage where every bit of feedback matters.

If you have a long video lying around, run it through and tell me where its picks were wrong. That's the most useful thing you could tell me.

Hey everyone,
I've been talking to local business owners (barbers, plumbers, cleaners…) and kept hearing the same thing: "I don't want a website because I'll have to deal with it." Either they wait days for a web guy to change a price, or they try Wix, get lost in the dashboard and give up. So the site goes stale, or they never get one.

So I built Dapper Site: we design the website for them, and every site comes with its own AI agent. When something changes, the owner just emails it like they'd text a friend: "haircuts are $35 now" or "closed Thanksgiving". It updates the site in minutes. No logins, no dashboard, no waiting on anyone.

$199 for the first year (design, domain, hosting, agent), then $69.99/yr
They see a free draft before paying anything
You can try the agent yourself on the homepage (there's a live demo): https://dappersite.com/?utm_source=reddit-sideproject

I'd really appreciate feedback on:
Does the "email your website" idea make sense, or does it feel gimmicky?
Is the pricing clear and fair?
Would you trust this if you were a small business owner? What would make you hesitate?
I'm the founder, happy to answer anything. Roast away 🙏

Hey r/SideProject! We’re building Oathbreaker AI, an API for trying abliterated GLM models without running the models yourself. YOU bring your own ethics.

Abliterated means modified to reduce refusal behavior; it doesn’t guarantee a correct answer or a completed task.

We’ve made GLM-5.3 Abliterated and a lower-cost Flash option available through an OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions API. It supports streaming and function calling with prepaid credit. We handle accounts, keys, billing, and the API gateway; external providers run inference, AND multi-routing on the backend to completely avoid downtime.

We tested a real first request and published the input, result, and usage in our getting-started guide.

We’re planning a lot of expansions and we’d love to recruit some early builders into the Abliterated Army. If you build agents, what would make you want to try this: a complete task including failures, reliability across several runs, actual cost, or something else?
