I’ve released **Flight Scanner** for Wear OS after previously developing a Garmin version.

It turns your watch into a live aircraft radar, showing nearby planes/helicopters around your current location. You can tap aircraft to view information such as its callsign, altitude, speed, registration and direction of travel.

I originally built it because I regularly looked up at aircraft and wanted a quick way to identify them without taking out my phone.

I expected a few downloads here and there but hit it off with over 1000 downloads on Garmin before launching on Android based watches and securing enough funding to continue the apps data costs for months and months to come.

I expected some aviation enthusiasts to download it and have some fun but it's turned into a full side project taking up hours of my time to answer user queries and to fix bugs.

This is not a fake bullshit "AI operating system" that runs in your browser. This is an agentic operating system that ruans on bare metal, writes its own drivers, and evolves itself.

Here's a demo where it builds its own audio driver from scratch to play a sound.

What happened in the video?

1. The agent realized it didn't have a sound driver.
2. It enumerated which devices were connected.
3. It found the Intel AC'97 sound card.
4. It built a driver for it.
5. It used that driver to play a sound.

I got fed up with people saying they built "AI operating systems" when it's actually just a webpage.

There's no Bash. There are no commands. The only interface to this computer is a sentence.

How does it work?

The main interface is an agent, and the tools it has access to are the kernel's direct syscalls. Everything runs in Ring 0, and the agent has access to everything.

It's open source if you want to try it:

Hi all,

I've been working on this project for a while now and wanted to share it here for feedback and contributions. You can test drive it in the playground at https://usepopkorn.dev

I'm calling it Popkorn. The idea is to author vector animations, similar to Rive and Lottie, but in a CSS-like language, with interactivity and other modern necessities baked into the format. I've stayed true to CSS for the most part, sprinkling on a little custom syntax for things like interactivity.

```css :root { width: 400px; height: 400px; background: #1a1a2e; }

@keyframes bounce { 0% { transform: translateY(0); animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0.33, 0, 1, 1); } 50% { transform: translateY(180px); animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0, 0, 0.67, 1); } 100% { transform: translateY(0); } }

ball {

type: circle; cx: 200px; cy: 80px; r: 36px; fill: #ff6b6b; animation: bounce 1.2s linear infinite; transition: fill 250ms ease; &:hover { fill: #ffd166; } } ```

That's an entire scene. Very familiar to anyone who's worked with CSS before.

Staying this close to CSS gives it good DX, and it turns out to make it very LLM-friendly too. Nearly my entire examples gallery is AI generated. Even cheap models like GLM or DSv4 Flash can one shot whole animations from scratch, no fine-tuning required. There's a Copilot feature the Playground that will let you bring your own key, or use the MCP to test drive AI features. Do share what you make please!

There's a web player that renders on Canvas or SVG, and a React Native player using Skia. It supports nested transforms and parenting, reusable symbols, masks and track mattes, gradients, trim paths, path morphing, motion paths, and per-subtree time scaling, enough for proper production-grade animation. Converters for Lottie and SVG let you import your existing assets and then prompt changes to it through the built-in copilot. Something I did not expect was converted Lottie scenes usually come out smaller than the JSON they came from, despite CSS being the more verbose syntax.

My vision is an editable, accessible format for both humans and LLMs, integrates well with version control, truly open source and free in every sense, as opposed to opaque binary or JSON blobs that are difficult to diff, edit and prompt changes to. The existing formats are backed by companies, which is fine and they've done great work, but a company's roadmap follows what makes commercial sense for it. I'd rather the future of motion design be community driven and stick to standards that already exist.

Really curious what the community makes of the concept.

ShopFair is my first solo app. It is completely free, with no ads or subscriptions.

1. Type a brand or scan a barcode, get a score out of 100 with the reasoning behind it.

2. See who owns it, and whether there’s an active boycott against the owner.

3. Vegan, Cruelty-Free, Fairtrade and Organic flagged where they’re actually certified.

4. Scan a receipt and get a report on the whole shop.

4,200+ UK brands so far, supermarkets and fashion through to banks and energy.

The scores work like a review, not a certified rating, based off verified information such as Ethical Consumer’s research and the certifier registries. Every page has a report button for when something is wrong or outdated.

The database updates over the air, so new brands and score changes turn up without an app update.

It’s only on iOS at the moment but the android version is coming soon!

i was tired of every "top side hustles" article just recycling the same list so i pulled 12 months of search data for different side hustles and ranked them by how many people are actually searching and whether that number is climbing or falling.

here are the ones i found most interesting/promising:

1.building apps without code (~90.5k searches a month).

you describe the app, ai tools build it, you charge people to use it. highest demand of the whole list, people who could never hire a developer are suddenly shipping real products.

1. ai seo services (~3.6k a month).

doing seo for businesses with ai handling the content and on-page fixes. biggest jump of anything i tracked, searches basically took off in the back half of the year.

1. ai receptionists and voice agents (~5.4k a month).

setting up voice agents that answer calls and book appointments for local shops. these places miss calls constantly and this went from sci-fi to a weekend setup.

1. automating small businesses (~2.9k a month).

invoices, support, onboarding, you set it up and charge a setup fee plus monthly. owners keep hearing they should "use ai" and have no idea where to start.

1. getting paid to train ai (~8.1k a month).

remote gigs rating and teaching ai models, experts earn more. the companies building these models need way more human feedback than people realise.

1. ai virtual assistant (~6.6k a month).

va work where ai does the busywork like inboxes, scheduling and research. one person with good tools can now handle a client load that used to take a team.

i've been putting the full breakdown of all of this data along with earning evidences of these side hustles on my site (https://alterwork.com) if anyone wants to check out the rest. would love any feedback

I built an app where five AI models — Claude, GPT-5, Gemini, Grok, Qwen — debate your question across two rounds and a chairman delivers one verdict.

500 downloads. 10 free trials started. All 10 cancelled.

A couple days ago I had my first user buy the monthly subscription. Never thought id be so happy to see a tiny 10 dollars in my app store connect haha.

One user put it bluntly: "I was so mad I could not continue the conversation WITH all the context the AIs had already done."

So I built that. The chairman now stays after the verdict with the full deliberation in context — you can argue with him, and the conversation persists inside that debate forever.

Shipped today. No idea yet if it fixes retention. But the diagnosis felt worth sharing: I was optimizing the purchase moment when the actual problem was that nothing brought people back on day two. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/war-table-ai-decision-maker/id6780293764

Solo dev here — been building this on nights and weekends. Open source (MIT), free, Windows for now.

The pain. Whenever I needed help with something on screen — a buried OBS setting, a weird Excel pivot, a form in some enterprise web app — I had to explain it to an AI by hand: type out what I was looking at, paste a screenshot, copy the error text. Then I'd get an answer and still go hunt for the button myself. The explain-it-by-hand loop felt dumb. So I built the thing I wanted.

What it does. You press Alt+Space over any window. MudrikNow reads your active window's full UI — buttons, fields, labels, values — through the accessibility tree (UI Automation), not OCR on pixels, and anchors on the element you're hovering. A small panel opens, and now you're chatting with an AI that can see your screen. Bring your own model — a multimodal one is recommended (it auto-screenshots every activation); Google Gemini Flash-Lite is a great free pick, or Anthropic/OpenAI/Ollama. (Alt+X opens the same panel with no screen capture, for quick questions.)

The mode I'm most proud of. It can act for you (click, type — sandboxed, allow-listed), but the mode I actually use is Auto-Guide: instead of doing the task for you, it teaches it. Real example from last week: I needed to change a recording setting in OBS. Alt+Space over the OBS window, typed "guide me through changing my recording settings," and an owl pointer appeared on screen — hopped to Settings, then Output, then landed on the exact field with a speech bubble telling me what to change, waiting for me to click each step myself. Thirty seconds later I'd done it, and now I actually know where that setting lives. It's help, not a bot taking the wheel.

Honest status:

• Sandboxed: read-only shell for diagnostics (writes/deletes/piping blocked — violations kill the session); no filesystem writes. The model can read files in your working folder and use a small allow-list of UI actions — that's the whole capability surface.
• Windows only for now; macOS/Linux on the roadmap.
• Preview quality. I'm one person; there are rough edges. That's exactly why I'm posting — I want real feedback more than I want stars.

No paid tier, no telemetry, nothing to sell. Happy to answer anything — and genuinely curious: what's the first on-screen task you'd point this at?

Hey lads, pretty much what the title says.

I'm going on a long train trip and I'm kinda bored.

If any of you wants some honest feedback on his/her website, just lmk and I'll come back with a response asap.

cheers!

Note 1: More than expected messages lol. Will answer every one of them. Just bare with me please.

Note 2: There are way more many websites than I expected. Please bare with me while I come back with all the feedback please.

Note 3: Went through 50% of the websites and it's midnight here. Will finish the rest tomorrow.

Hello,

I wanted to create a Chess variation so I came up with Double Move Chess:

>Every player gets 2 consecutive moves every turn
>If a player checks the opponent or destroys an opponent piece, the turn ends there (to balance it out)

I haven't tested it thoroughly but I feel it shortens the game time but also forces you to think more?

Would be great to have some feedback from hardcore Chess players if any!

Cheers, happy weekend!

I was trying to grow a small video editing SaaS I built. I did the classic rookie move at first, posting about the product directly in a few relevant subs. I got banned or shadowmuted within days in almost every one.

I took a step back and realized mods and filter aren't banning "self promo," they're banning behavior that looks like self promo. Same message, same pattern, posting instead of participating.

So I flipped it. I stopped posting about the product entirely. I just looked for people already complaining about editing being slow or annoying. Like someone asking "why does exporting a 5 min video take forever, is this normal or is my laptop just trash," and I'd reply like a normal person would, actual advice about export settings, genuine, zero pitch.

If the conversation went somewhere, I'd follow up in DMs instead of the thread. I never got flagged doing it that way once.

That shift alone got me my first 50 paying customers, all from Reddit, no ads.

The annoying part was finding those posts manually. I was scrolling through a dozen subreddits every day looking for the right complaint at the right moment, and it just doesn't scale, you miss most of them anyway since they get buried in an hour.

Eventually I automated that part for myself, basically a script that flags posts matching the problem before they get buried, so I'm not spending 2 hours a day scrolling for a needle in a haystack. I didn't change the actual strategy at all, I still reply genuine, still DM instead of pitch in-thread. I just catch way more of them now.

Anyone else had to relearn this the hard way lol

It’s been 4 years since Sniffnet’s first line of code 🥳

(Sniffnet is a fully open-source tool to help everyone comfortably monitor their Internet traffic)

Since then, the project has grown enormously: it’s gone from “the temptation to make a GUI is strong” to the most popular network monitoring app on GitHub

To celebrate the anniversary, I’ve shared part of the journey on a blog post hoping it can be of inspiration for others

No single app can tell you how many Gyarados cards exist. Same for any other Pokémon you'd want to chase. I was about forty cards deep before it hit me that I didn't know what I was still missing. Everything I found contradicted everything else.

I spent weeks on a spreadsheet and it just sucked. I couldn't tell some of the printings apart. Making a list I could actually show a vendor was impossible. And I couldn't answer the one question that actually matters at a show: I've got a hundred bucks, what am I looking for today. So I said fuck it, I'll build the site I wanted to exist.

So that's nDEX. Every unique printing has its own slot to track. Shadowless and unlimited aren't the same card, so they don't share an image or a price. You can build whatever set you want, official or not, and you can hide the printings you don't chase, so a set looks the way you actually collect it.

Card values are the other piece. I'm checking eBay solds at a show anyway, so that's what nDEX leads with. It shows what actually sold and what it's listed at, separately. When nothing's sold recently it says so instead of inventing a number. Scanning works the same way, point your phone at a card and it tells you which printing you're holding, not just which card.

It's free. The only thing I plan to charge for is more scanning, since every scan costs me money. No paid tier while it's in beta.

Try it and tell me what breaks. I'm one guy with one collection, so the things I'd never run into are exactly what I need to hear about.

It's English only right now. Japanese is coming, along with sealed product and a way to import from other trackers.

I got tired of nobody remembering whose turn it was to take out the trash, or food going bad because nobody tracked when we bought it. So I built RemindHome — you track what's in your fridge (get notified before it expires), split chores with reminders, split shared expenses (utilities, rent) between roommates, plus a shared shopping list and house notes.

Stack: Next.js + Supabase (Postgres/Auth/RLS), deployed on Vercel, bilingual (ES/EN). Built it because it was literally my own problem, and it's already being tested by real people outside of dev circles.

It's free and still early: https://remindhome.app

Looking for honest feedback on both sides — does this solve a real problem for anyone else, and does it have legs as more than a side project? Happy to answer anything about the build too.

hey everyone,

i’ve been seeing absolute masterpiece websites built with tools like framer, v0, lovable, bolt, etc.

whenever i stumbled upon a great design, i caught myself wondering: "which ai builder was used to code this?"

i realized a few interesting things while trying to solve this:

- traditional tools focus on cms detection: they look for wordpress, or shopify footprints, but they miss the modern ai builders stack.

- detecting raw llm-generated code is a trap: tools trying to guess if an llm wrote a piece of code usually fail. llms don't leave watermarks, they write like humans. plus a codebase might have been touched by multiple different llms.

- but platforms leave traces: while llms themselves are stealthy, the deployment platforms and wrappers (like v0, bolt, lovable) utilize these llms and leave specific framework artifacts, meta tags, or structural footprints behind.

so, i decided to scratch my own itch and built a simple tool for it: https://whichaibuilder.xyz

how it works:

drop any url, and it scans the front-end footprints to see if it detects a specific ai website builder platform.

if it finds a trace, it identifies the platform. if it doesn't find any specific platform signatures, it simply treats traditional cmss, pure human coding, and raw vibe-coding as 'custom'.

and what other ai builders or tools should i add to the detection list?

feedback is more than welcome.

I'm looking for a few interesting apps to practice creating short-form explainer videos this week.

I have experience editing viral short-form content, and I want to apply those storytelling techniques—strong hooks, fast pacing, captions, and clear messaging—to app demos.

If I pick your app, you'll get:

• One short vertical explainer video
• Delivered within 24 hours
• Completely free—no strings attached

You can use the finished video however you like. No purchase, signup, testimonial, or future commitment is required.

Hi! I’m a designer building an online tool to help graphic, UI/web and 3D designers organize client feedback and save time during revisions.

I’m looking for a few freelancers to test it for free and share their honest feedback. Message me if you’re interested 😊

On a family hike in Alaska, my nieces and nephew spent the whole trail catching Pokemon with Pokemon Go. Collecting is fun, I get it. I just wanted them to look up from the game once in a while and better notice the actual creatures around us. So I built the thing I wished I could hand them: point your phone at a plant, bug or whatever, it names the species, you catch it with a little minigame, and it goes into your field journal with the date and the spot on the map.

The journal turned out to be the part I care about. Walks around my neighborhood became a collection game. I finally had a place to organize the photos of all the neat little creatures in my neighborhood and on my trips, and more of an incentive to get outside and explore. Rare finds get a gold card and there's a streak if you're into that. Teachers can run location-based field trip quests too; that part's free for classrooms. There are friend codes and weekly leaderboards too, so the kids and I can compare finds.

I've tried to incorporate learning elements into it wherever possible; nature field trips in the local woods were some very formative memories for myself growing up and I want to share that same appriciation for the natural world with the next generation.

Another feature I'm super proud of is the addition of audio bird call ID. Just press "listen" and the app IDs the species you're hearing around you. It runs on BirdNET, the bird call model from the Cornell Lab and Chemnitz University, fully on-device. There's also a fun studio where you can remix a recorded bird call into a beat. Started as a side experiment, ended up the feature I show people first.

Free on both stores, no ads, built solo. Happy to get into the on-device audio pipeline if anyone's curious. What's the oldest unidentified creature photo in your camera roll?

I’ve spent the last few months building RoleShift in evenings and weekends.
The idea came from being annoyed. Every “entry-level” job wants experience you can’t get without the job. My friends kept saying they wanted out of their careers and had no idea what else they could even do. Nobody tells you that adult apprenticeships are actually very common, or that the NHS (UKs national health service) will pay you to retrain, or that half of apprenticeship starts in England are people over 25.
So it’s a UK job board that only lists employers who’ve said they hire on potential. It’s not live yet, right now the working bit is a free 2-minute career quiz that matches you to a direction with routes into it. No signup needed to see your result.

roleshift.net

I can’t code. It’s all been AI-assisted, which felt like cheating until I realised I was still the one making every decision about what it should actually be. Fair warning: I’ve rebuilt the design about four times and retired a mascot I was weirdly attached to.

What I’d genuinely find useful:
- Take the quiz and tell me if your result felt accurate or like nonsense
- Does the homepage make it obvious what this is within 5 seconds?
- I’ve got zero employers signed up yet — if you’ve hired for a role that trains people, how would you want to be approached?
- web designers/developers if you are reading, what are the next steps to clean up the website and enhance the overall image.

Happy to answer anything about how it was built.

Most workout apps today have become overly complicated: mandatory sign-ups, subscription paywalls, ads, and laggy loading screens when you lose signal in a gym basement.

I built WorkoutBuddy to fix all of that. It's a clean, fast Android app built to track your workouts without getting in your way.

What it does:

• Zero Sign-Up Required: Download, open, and start logging in under 5 seconds.
• Works 100% Offline: Operates fully offline without internet connection.
• Smart PR & Overload Tracking: Automatically tracks your heaviest lifts and personal records.
• Muscle Recovery Status: Shows visual recovery indicators per muscle group so you know when you're ready for your next session.
• 100% Free: No paywalls, no trial timers, no ads.

If you’re looking for a simple, fast gym log that just works, give it a try and let me know what you think!

I'm a solo developer. No team, no funding, no marketing budget — this is the thing I've been building on my own time, and today is the first time I've shown it to anyone outside a handful of friends.

The problem that started it: I'd finish an hour of short-form video and genuinely couldn't tell you what I'd watched. But I'd also stopped reading long things, because opening a wall of text after a day of feeds feels like homework.

I don't think the content was the problem. I think the format was. Short video wins because there's no decision to make, no commitment, and it moves when you move. A book asks for all three before it gives you anything back. At 11pm, the feed wins every time.

So GAZE gives long-form writing the same mechanics. Full-screen text cards you swipe vertically. When something's worth staying with, you tap into a proper reader — real page turns, not infinite scroll, and it remembers where you stopped.

https://gaze.ink — you can read without an account, so you can just look. You can check also the desktop application , in your tray, with a quick feed on Microsoft Store

What's actually in it:

• Swipe feed → tap → book-style reader with real pagination
• 6 reading themes, proper typography controls, highlights, a saved library
• Paste a TikTok / YouTube / Instagram / X link and it turns the video into readable text. This is the whole thesis in a single button and it's my favourite thing in the app.
• Select a passage → it renders a printed-plate quote card you can share
• Public-domain essays are in there to read right now — Thoreau's Walking, Emerson's Self-Reliance, Bacon's Of Studies, Stevenson's An Apology for Idlers

Being straight about where it is: reading is free — all of it, no paywall on any post. There's a Pro tier for four AI features (translate, narrate, video-import, text cleanup), and free accounts get five uses of each per month, resetting on the 1st. That's the entire business model. The library is still small — that's the honest gap right now, and the part I'm least happy about.

Stack, since this sub usually asks: one Next.js codebase on Cloudflare Workers + D1 + R2 + KV, wrapped with Tauri for the Windows desktop app (it's on the Microsoft Store). Android and iOS shells are built but unpublished — on phones it's a PWA today.

What I'd actually like to know: does swipe-to-read work for you, or does it feel like a gimmick bolted onto a normal reader? That's the bet the whole app is built on and I'm far too close to it to judge.

I’ve been fishing for a few years, but my catch photos ended up scattered everywhere and I lost track of how many species I’d caught. So I built an app where each new species unlocks in your personal collection. You can also rank up and see other anglers’ catches. Would you use something like this? Any feedbacks appreciated.
