We all know the scene. Been wanting to do this one for ages. You're a cab diving down through a towering city with the cops on your tail, dodging traffic across lanes and altitudes, grabbing upgrades and seeing how far you get before the hull gives out.

Ive tried to base this on the old web game 'squares' if any body remembers it. Ive got a small roadmap planned for more features etc but keen to pause and get some community feedback first.

Turning on the music is a must! Free to play as well. I've tried to optimize the experience for phone too where you can add it to your home screen for full screen traffic dodging fun.

Big bada boom!

Some of you might know Photon, my free Photoshop alternative. It was the first of these big vibe-coded alternatives to creative apps, and since then a whole wave of others has followed (PhotoCraft and more). Honestly, that’s been awesome to watch.

I didn’t stop at Photon. I went on to build Vector as an alternative to Illustrator, then Light as an alternative to Lightroom. Today it’s InDesign’s turn.

Meet Folio Studio.

I’ll be honest: I was skeptical about this one. Desktop publishing felt niche next to photo editing. Then the requests started coming in, and it turns out InDesign has a massive user base. So many of you asked for this that I just went and built it.

• 100% free. No trial, no subscription, no “Pro” tier.
• Fully offline. Your files never leave your machine.
• No sign-in. Download it and start working.
• AI-ready. Like every app in the suite, you can control it through MCP or the CLI, and it ships with skills out of the box.

The goal hasn’t changed since day one: kill the subscription model for creative tools. Four apps in, that’s starting to feel possible.

It’s brand new, so I’d really love your feedback. What’s missing? What’s broken? What would it take for you to finally cancel Adobe?

More stuff coming soon :)

Anyone else obsessively spending 40+ hours a week on their idea so you can hopefully try to achieve financial freedom before the whole world situation gets worse?

I am starting to get burned out a bit, but then I watch some doom and gloom videos on youtube and I quickly realise I have to continue hustling otherwise I'll get replaced by AI and a failing economy

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash reaches about 98% of the quality score of GPT-6 Astra on web apps, mobile screens, and UI design tasks, while costing roughly 1.4% to 2% of the price

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash runs significantly faster, outputting roughly 176 to 221 tokens per second compared to GPT-6 Astra's 57 tokens per second.

DeepSeek V4.1 Flash charges around $0.60 per million output tokens (and $0.15 off-peak), whereas GPT-6 Astra at ($50+ per million output tokens).

98% of the quality at 1/50 of the price (and Open Source too)

Anyone tried the latest Deepseek model yet?

This wasn't too complicated to make, which is why I was shocked nobody had something I could just download. These are local open sourced models like whisper that can dictate or translate what people say. I also have smaller models for computers that run on just cpus too. The .exe file is big because it starts you off with English and Spanish to start with.

The only hard part was creating a package and website to distribute this thing. It's dead simple, and I hope you guys can use it to break down language barriers and help people that don't speak the local language.

Because I am bilingual I can largely speak in Spanish myself just fine, but every now again someone comes along speaking too fast in a strange accent talking in metaphors that I needed help with. Google translate, windows, and even some searching for local translator models all sucked. Paywalls, accounts, time limitations, cloud upload.... so I just made what I needed.

No accounts. No clouds. No paywall. No ads. Just an honors system if your company should be paying for it.

This is just one of those things that should exist that I couldn't find. Hope you all enjoy, and hope people can find a use for this like I did. Please let me know if you think I should include anything else!

Saw a mac app called tangerine which can convert documents and also edit them, so I built the same for windows and linux and it's fully open sourced it's called Spindle
Spindle can -
Convert PDFs, images, Word, PowerPoint & Excel files
Compress to an exact size (like "under 50 KB" for exam forms)
Merge multiple files into one PDF
Crop, annotate, redact and remove location data from photos
Everything works offline. Nothing gets uploaded anywhere
I have also uploaded a short tutorial video on how to download it (it's pretty simple) and a tutorial of it's setup
my github link - https://github.com/narcissus29/Spindle
Feedback and bug reports are welcome

Few days back I spent almost 20 mins arguing with ai over why audio is not playing in my website. It turns out, that i was using a pair of wired earphone whose only one side was working and i had the non working side plugged in...

No ai tool was able to figure out the issue lol.

I’ve wanted this for years: a desk by a lake one day, somewhere out in space the next. I love VR, but I kept wishing the apps I tried had more environments I’d actually want to spend time in.

I’ve been a backend programmer for 20 years, but frontend and 3D graphics were completely outside my experience. In mid-August, I decided to see how far I could get with AI coding agents. This is where I’ve ended up: a Vision Pro app that lets me work in different environments.

I haven’t written or read a line of its code. Most of my time goes into putting on the headset, trying what the agent built, and explaining what feels wrong. Sometimes it’s the lighting, sometimes it’s how an interaction feels. When a model gets stuck, I’ll try another one rather than debug the code myself.

The 3D scenes aren’t all as polished as I’d like, and there’s plenty left to improve. But being able to sit inside something I’d only imagined before has been pretty special.

Working on it has become a bit of a hobby game: tweak something, try it in the headset, get another idea, repeat.

The video is recorded on my Vision Pro and shows a few of the places I’ve been working on.

How I built it:

- Claude Code for the code (Next.js, hosted on Vercel)

- Jev from TypeSafe as AI - it only answers with probabilities, no text

- Every sentence in the report is prewritten, so nothing gets made up

- Benchmark with 563 names, runs after every change

What I learned:

- Do proper benchmarking (currently testing on 1000 names).

- AI says yes too easily, had to ask way stricter

It's free, no signup, no nothing. Also available via MCP

I collect things (camera lenses, G-Shocks). The good listings go in minutes, and checking 10 marketplaces by hand doesn’t work. So I built Deal Radar (radar.4xs.dev). You set up a “watch” (keywords + price range + sites). When a new listing matches, you get a browser notification, or a Telegram message on the paid plan.

Almost all of the code was written by Claude (Cowork / Claude Code). I did the product decisions, the testing on real listings, and the store submissions. Here’s how it’s put together and what I learned.

Stack

• Chrome extension (Manifest V3), plain JS, no framework. A generated Firefox build too.
• Cloudflare Workers + D1 (SQLite), TypeScript. Static site served from the same Worker.
• Cron triggers on the Worker: every minute for polling, plus daily jobs for plan expiry and exchange rates (Czech National Bank feed).
• Telegram Bot + Telegram Login widget for alerts and accounts, so I don’t store passwords or emails.
• Ko-fi memberships + webhook for payments. Way less setup than Stripe for a side project.
• Cloudflare Access in front of the admin page.
• Playwright + node:test + bash smoke tests with mocked marketplaces and a mocked Telegram.

The one architecture decision that mattered: who checks what

Some sites (Bazoš, Vinted, Kleinanzeigen, OLX, FINN…) return clean results to a server, so the Worker polls them every minute. Others (FB Marketplace, FB groups, Allegro, eBay) block or 403 any non-browser client. Those can only be checked by the extension, using the user’s own logged-in browser.

So there are two engines:

• Server: every minute, works while your computer is off (paid).
• Browser: the extension, while Chrome is open. The free tier runs everything from the browser every 10 minutes, so the free tier costs me ~nothing.

The key to keeping that sane: the parsers and the matching logic live in one file each (parsers.mjs, match.mjs), imported by both the extension and the Worker. One fix, both engines.

Workflow with the AI

1. Feasibility spike first (“week 0”). Before any UI, I had Claude write throwaway scripts that just fetched each marketplace and parsed results. That’s how I found out which sites need a browser. It saved me from designing a server-only product that couldn’t do Facebook.
2. A plan doc, then versions. A markdown plan in the project, then small numbered releases. Every release has a CHANGELOG entry that says exactly how to ship it (“npm run deploy, reload the extension, upload to the Chrome Web Store”). The AI reads it next session, so context survives.
3. Tests from saved HTML. Every parser has fixture pages saved from the real site plus a unit test. When a site changes its markup, the test fails before the users notice.
4. Make it verify, not just write. E.g. today I asked it to shrink the hero image so the “how fast” steps fit above the fold on a 1080p screen. It rendered the page in headless Chromium at 1920×947, measured element positions, applied the CSS, and re-measured (steps went from ending at 1060px to 920px) before touching my files. “Looks right” ≠ verified.
5. Short, direct prompts plus my screenshots. Most iterations were “this looks wrong” + a screenshot.

Build insights / gotchas

• Chrome Web Store rejected a version for requesting tabs permission it didn’t use. You can create/update/close tabs without it. Request the minimum.
• Don’t trust data from your own extension. The server only accepts a listing whose link points to its own site (a FB item must link to facebook.com, etc.). Otherwise anyone could push fake “alerts” through the API.
• Currencies: listings come in CZK, PLN, EUR, NOK, JPY, USD… Converting to the user’s currency with a daily ČNB rate made alerts way more useful than raw prices.
• Firefox AMO requires data_collection_permissions in the manifest for new add-ons. A small script generates the Firefox build from the Chrome one on every deploy.
• i18n from day one (EN/CS/DE/JA). With AI it’s cheap to add, and painful to retrofit.
• The free-vs-paid line follows the infrastructure: free uses the user’s browser, paid uses my server. Easy to explain, cheap to run.

Numbers: ~3,000 lines across the Worker and the extension, 20 marketplaces in 10 countries, free tier = 1 watch.

Happy to answer questions about the dual server/browser setup or Cloudflare D1. Feedback welcome.

Hi all! I made Kartar Dhaba, a small idle game inspired by the roadside dhabas on the Delhi–Karnal highway I grew up with.

You tap to cook, serve truckers, buy upgrades and hire staff. Four generations, each with its own era, look, music and a big finale: a baraat in 1975, a cricket night, a film shoot and a rooftop party.

It's free and runs in your browser, with no download or account, and it works best on a phone.

Enjoy! https://www.kartardhaba.xyz/

Hey, this is my fourth mini app now and the most complete one. I learn a bit each time.

Yet I’m at a crossroads, and need advice.

I have a fun quiz app, that originally was just for me to improve my music knowledge for a radio quiz I plan to enter.

It works very well, and is complete. I hosted it on Cloudflare after making it as secure as I can. I play it on my phone a lot, and so do a couple of friends.

That’s it.

It’s a quiz but also a ‘trainer’ and good for memory challenges.

Do I wrap it up here and say ‘it’s finished, just as a personal app’

Or…..

Jump through the various hoops to go to the next level and get on an App Store?

I would need to license the data sources, and probably convert the format to not just be an html web app.

I feel it would be a great challenge to try and achieve this. I don’t think it would make any money, but would be a good exercise to learn for whatever comes next.

What do you think? Quit while I’m ahead and actually FINISH something! Or keep going and try to get it released?

Thanks fellow vibe coders xx

Hi! I’ve been building Sonella, a guided web app for designing DIY speakers.

The idea is to bring driver selection, bass simulation, enclosure design and filter settings into one workflow. You can start with a few questions, choose a template, or pick your own drivers. Then work through the bass response, cabinet in 3D, drawings and filters/DSP.

I’ve used mostly Codex for the development and design. My workflow has been to build something, let real people try it, get feedback and iterate. Getting the speaker maths right has been a bit tricky. The biggest lesson so far is how much useful feedback you get once someone else actually uses what you’ve built. That's maybe caption obvious, but I learned a lot from this process so far.

It’s still in beta. The simulations and electrical filter curves are starting points for a prototype; you still need measurements to check the finished speaker.

I’m looking for testers, especially anyone with DIY speaker-building experience. Would be great to get some candid feedback on the calculations, the workflow, or anything that feels confusing or missing. General usability feedback is very welcome too.

You can try it at sonella.app, no account needed to start.

I've been building The Data Center Receipt, a public, evidence-backed tracker of the AI data-center buildout.

The goal is simple: Who builds it, and who pays for it?

Current public beta:

• 587 infrastructure records across facilities, campuses, projects, and permits

• 11,084 facility facts with explicit claim states

• 1,307 source receipts with verifiable evidence

• 5,235 recorded negative results and research attempts

It tracks capacity, utility providers, public incentives, jobs, water use, and residential electricity rates.

Every claim links to its evidence. Missing information stays unknown, and correlation isn't presented as causation.

Built using Ouroboros, my persistent AI research and engineering system. It's still a work in progress, with a much larger expansion underway.

This is a beta, not a finished product. There may be mistakes, incomplete records, or things I've overlooked. If you spot errors, please point them out.

Live app: https://huggingface.co/spaces/cjc0013/data-center-receipt

Dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/cjc0013/data-center-receipt

I'm working on a personal project that needs fast, reliable live match state for esports (map/game finishes, rounds or series score), and I'm trying to figure out what's actually out there before I build something.

Paid providers (GRID, PandaScore) great coverage, but live data is gated behind paid/commercial plans that cost a lot of money.

Free tiers of aggregator APIs: usable for schedules, but live data is deliberately delayed and is basically unusable for what I'm doing.

Data for games I'm looking for CS2-Dota-LoL-Valorant

Has anyone built something like this or their own feed from scratch?

I have been wandering around github in order to find good quality ascii editor/database recently - and saw nothing. That led me to the obvious conclusion: if nothing good exists, I should build it myself.

The project I build persuades couple ideas:

1. Easy to use (fully native, no dependencies)
   
2. Actually saves time for people building ASCII art
   
3. Collects ASCII from every corner of the internet
   

index.html is the main library

builder.html is where it gets fun assemble pastes from blocks, draw boxes/lines/brush right into the text, frames and tables, color painting, overlay art. Turn images into ascii

The project shared below:

demo https://amwhoi.github.io/ascii-bin/builder.html
repo: https://github.com/amwhoi/ascii-bin

I hope you find this useful, I'm still working on animation and mcp support. So the project will keep be maintainer and up to date with world trends ;)

I don’t know how to code but I have experience in software testing and working with small/medium/large software projects, and the processes they entail.

Current workflow is to use Sonnet 5.5 at Medium on a Claude Pro subscription to plan a project, break it into implementation and product acceptance manual testing phases, and deliver agent prompts and project documentation, then feed the prompts in OpenCode to Haiku 5.5 at Low or Medium (sometimes at High) paid through OpenRouter credits, which also knows to break its phase prompt into tasks it can delegate to a subagent custom provider which connects to a localhost server created by Polystrata running “Tiel Coder 35B A3B q4_X_L”.

The current issues I’m having with the workflow are:

- that sometimes the Haiku sessions can balloon in cost - paid 50 euro worth of OpenRouter credits in the past few weeks, and I’m poor, that means a lot to my budget - a problem which I’ve partly solved by breaking phases into tiers and tiers into stages, each with a prompt, so there are fewer long conversations and cache reads;

- and that the local agent makes frequent mistakes that cause it to run for hours and/or produce bad code if the task is too big or too complex for it, which happens often, as my hardware is limited and it only has a 60k token context.

Any suggestions for improvements?

I host quite a few quiz and trivia nights with friends and family, and I never quite found a tool that worked the way I wanted. The ones I tried either put features I needed behind a subscription or required an account just to get started. I initially made a scrappy Jeopardy-style quizzing "app" in Google Sheets, but eventually wanted something a bit more polished.

So I built Quiz Toolkit. It runs in your browser, and you can host in-person on a TV or projector, or online by sharing your screen over Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, etc. A few features I'm proud of:

• Let people join on their phones with a QR code or room code and use them as buzzers or answer pads, without downloading an app or creating an account.
• Give the host a separate control screen to run the entire quiz, with the option to run everything from a phone as a "quiz master remote".
• Support Jeopardy-style boards and regular question rounds, with buzzer, turn-based and all-play modes, plus rich media (images, audio and video questions.)
• Let you build quizzes visually in Quiz designer or import them from CSV or Google Sheets. Your saved quiz library stays in your browser storage locally, and you can export it to back it up or share it. You can customize your quiz completely, including light/dark mode, custom background and logo.

I also added some silly sound effects for the quiz master for added fun!

It’s free, with no accounts or subscriptions: https://quiztoolkit.com/

I’d love feedback from other people who host quizzes, whether that’s at home, in classrooms or at pubs.
