Browser extension for shared Apple TV+ viewing, like those Netflix party extensions and the feature that's now built into Hulu. It's for a remote hackathon, so I figure the scope is good for one day, and it's something I'd use myself.
Building an e-commerce platform after having an e-commerce for years.
The first one in action is https://belgianbrewed.com and sold to my supplier (also a friend) and he has one of the bigger warehouses here for Belgian beers.
I'm now building a couple of b2b's on it and continuing to add features ( eg. partial products, using ML.Net for related products, integration with other software, ...)
I'm also trying to migrate my own shop from Woocommerce to it, but haven't had the time yet ( no blog functionality for now).
Splitting up the code to DDD has slowed down adding new functionality for now ( a lot is migrated, but not everything). But it should improve development complexity in a later stage.
Hey all! Built out a passion project app to help podcasters find new listeners.
Each podcaster is given a channel with a public facing website for their podcast. To give prospective listeners a taste of an episode, post an audio clip with a key moment (has to be less than 5 minutes long). We take these clips and serve them in a feed of posts for listeners.
I'm trying to get creative because I have nothing else to do, but it's hard :).
I'm learning different drawing apps and music production apps. My drawing is like a 7-year old (quoted from someone else) but I used to play piano and my coding skills are decent.
What drawing apps are you using? Any success with those? I've tried drawabox.com in the past, and try coming back to it every year or two for a stint. It's definitely helped me improve my drawing, but it's hard for me to stay focused with it...
My wife is Chinese, and I've been learning Cantonese and Mandarin off-and-on on my own for years. For many reasons, I recognize it's extremely difficult to make it work to acquire a language with the help of a romantic partner. I even had a friend who's wife was a doctorate in French language education but completely failed to use her as a resource.
I've identified some of the pitfalls and am developing a system to get native speaking partners more involved in language learner's journeys in a fun and encouraging way (not as a teacher).
This is my second startup! Went through YC once on my first one (related to VR). Been using YC Startup School this time around.
At first glance, I thought you meant languages in the metaphorical sense. I actually thought that sounded cool. Sort of like a gamified way of understanding what makes each other feel loved, etc. Just wanted to add this idea in there.
I think I heard this before, haha! That would be a cool to have a raw relationship maintenance tool. In a way, learning their language and culture helps you learn their love language too :)
I thought the same. A bit of story telling... My girlfriend and I have switched half of our conversations to internal memes to express how we feel or feel about something, especially with small conflicts that arise from everyday life. I guess most couples do that to an extent, though I think spending so much time together last year (COVID19 working from home ) increased the "meme communication".
Hehe, one of the cool things about learning each other's spoken languages, is you get more memes, in other languages. I have a handful of fun Chinese phrases to whip out like "you're effin' annoying" or ways of calling each other idiots :)
Hey, looks really cool. I subscribed. Seems that its only made to learn one language, right? I for example have the situation that I need to learn my wifes mother tongue and she needs to learn mine, will that be possible?
A spreadsheet app which also let’s you use APIs/web services as regular spreadsheet functions. This lets you consume data from external sources and/or push data out to automate things, for example.
Still building out more of https://www.beatthatflight.com.au - travel sure took a hit with covid, but it's given me time to build more automation to find and list cheap flights over say, a 3 month period in a table to find the cheapest date in a quarter for users. Lets me quickly analyse Jetstar or Qantas or Virgin Australia deals and find the few cheapest flights that match their lowest sale prices, AND sometimes I can find it cheaper than the airline itself.
Trying really hard to scale a newsletter/resource/community site in the startup space with a former colleague of mine. Some of you may have seen it around here already: https://boringstartupstuff.com.
A platform consisting of a plant database, marketplace and (soon) a garden planner and log to research, grow, harvest, trade surplus and share knowledge.
If you are into growing plants for food and other human use and doing this in a regenerative way (for example with Permaculture principles) then you should check it out.
Currently working on a concept for the MVP for the garden planner.
This is cool. Seems like it could become a thing I've long wanted: a site where I can enter my geographic location/hardiness zone, indoor/outdoor, light level, and get a list of plants that will survive, ranked by effort. EG "I'm in seattle, and get a lot of indoor sun. What can I grow that will happily survive my ignoring it for 2 weeks?"
thanks! will add some string and trumpet samples just for you.
been plenty of iterations over the past year or so, has been p cool to see people jamming on it between all corners of the world during the lockdown(s)
I'm working for a browser-based app for electronic musicians to jam together online (not real-time, I think I found a compromise)
Funny how I didn't anticipate that the biggest obstacles to launching it will be my own mind, in the form of imposter syndrome and insecurity. That, and the lockdowns have been a bit rough. Almost there though, and a lot of lessons learned. I assume there's probably some more lessons in actually getting the first users coming up next, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there I guess :)
Yes you can! :)
I just put my email up on my profile, ping me and I'll let you know when the private beta is online! I'm aiming to get an MVP and a landing page online in the coming month.
It would be really useful if you could add a mic test option to monitor input levels. Managing input devices on the browser can be a big pain....
Also this one is just my opinion, but I think the input volume visual feedback is not very noticeable. Maybe play around with your colors or effects to make it more contrasting?
This is really fun, though. I'll be coming back to it.
https://www.taskeera.com/: Monitoring background and async jobs from start to finish. Half of the infrastructure and coding is done but I didn't find a big audience so I'm in the process of just open sourcing it.
Problem - I had lots of domains I've bought over the years which I never used!
Solution - I created a tool to automatically turn these un-used domains into a Reddit-like content aggregator. I wanted it to be fully automated with lots of content + social features (voting, members, newsletters).
It's been super fun creating it and also sharing with people who are also using it.

Thanks! There's still a lot of work to do, currently the site is also a bit slow as it's running on a small instance and the whole ingestion process of new podcasts is pretty heavy.
I‘m working on a gaming deals website that scrapes all the deals from console shops (PlayStation, Switch, Xbox) and then tries to get the games rating from metacriric.
The clue is, all the deals are ordered by score.

TLDR: It's fun seeing the product come to life
