If you don't have your photos and videos well-organized, or you're nervous at all about the photos of your loved ones being used for adtech or surveillance training data, or you'd just like to try out a fun "serendipity" interface, installation takes less than a minute and then it runs politely in the background.
I did this for my Chrome extension that audits websites for web best practices: https://www.checkbot.io/
It started as a collection of scripts I wrote to test localhost + production websites for problems while I was doing web development. Other developers I knew were keen to try a user friendly version so I polished the interface and released it as a product.
I reckon probably most. I made Bulk Resize Photos (https://bulkresizephotos.com) because resizing to particular dimensions was a problem I'd run in to continually for years. (Eg. creating different sizes of icons for mobile apps, but also other situations that I don't even remember)
This is the path my product took, a stock option scanner [0] that I originally created to find trades for myself. I noticed requests for such a tool being made in the investing communities that I follow, so I polished the UI and released it as a freemium product.

I'd love to hear what you think.</plug>
