Ask HN: What project are you currently working on?
54 points by sideproject on July 15, 2015 | hide | past | favorite | 124 comments
It's that time of the month again to share what HN'ers are working on! Have you taken on new side projects that you'd like to share with the community? How is your current side project going?

I'm currently re-designing one of my side projects - sideprojectors (http://sideprojectors.com) - yeah really. What can I say, I love side projects.

FYI, here's the previous month's https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9696274



Today I walked through the forest and picked some mushrooms. I walked by the hen house and picked up two eggs. I dug up a few potatoes and picked some spinach. I walked by the neighbour's root cellar to get some of his home brew beer, and fried the mushrooms (chanterelles) and the spinach, boiled the potatoes and scrambled the eggs.

It was good.

That would involve moats and drawbridges. With gears & swords and sprockets on show-hn and how to avoid overheating and chafing in armor in ask-hn.


You're off by about 200 years


Yeah, no, this was actually yesterday. Today I'm thinking about fungi porcini with eggs, fresh potatoes and lardo me and my wife made from the family pig.


Glad to hear you ate food and browsed the internet. Welcome to the modern human condition!


"google docs" of handwriting / freehand with real-time collaboration. A bit like if google docs had a child with OneNote...

That sounds awesome! That's one of those problems that I've had in the "Someday Maybe" bin for a long time, but I've been perpetually hoping that someone else comes up with a solution so that I can just pay them money instead of having to do it myself.


this looks fantastic, and i would pay for this on an iphone in a heartbeat


I'm working on a molecular sensor. Basically it's a novel sensor (hardware) that uses machine learning techniques (in software) to identify single molecules. I just finished a doctorate were I showed that the technology could compete with mass spec and has applications in high accuracy bio-molecule characterization.


What's the interface like for testing samples? If there is any chance to do it at-range, such a tool would be amazing coupled with a camera and built into an augmented reality system.


Ha, that would be cool. Unfortunately, to get molecular and sub-molecular resolution on single molecules you have be pretty close to the target (nanometers/Angstroms). You basically load a liquid containing the analyte into the device and push go.


Maybe one just needs to put it on a drone!

EDIT: I wasn't trying to be snarky. I get excited by certain ideas and was just riffing.


If you're intending to use it for biological samples, how are you intending to address biofouling?


wow this sounds really cool. Any way you can post the link for more info/send it to me?


Working on getting publications out, so I don't have a link just yet. So far the research has been reviewed by my committee and I'm working with a couple genomics and metabolomics groups to validate applications. I will start pursuing funding for the business side within a year.


I'm working on my Date Range Picker component for Bootstrap:

http://www.daterangepicker.com

Over 3 years of piling on new features and pull requests haphazardly, it's gained a bunch of unnecessary code complexity and odd little bugs when settings are set in just the right combination. I've spent the past few afternoons rewriting it from scratch, returning to sane code organization, and an updated UI that'll work for more sites. Feels good.

Now I'm working on redoing the documentation and demos so I can publish. Should be ready by tomorrow.

I also just finished redoing a 16-year-old website of mine, which I mostly maintain for nostalgia's sake, Website Goodies:

http://www.websitegoodies.com

It was initially a collection of HTML tutorials and Perl scripts, now with just tools, no tutorials, in modern languages. Somehow real people are still posting to guestbooks created there in the 1990s, so why not keep it going? Makes a bit of AdSense money on the side too.


I am currently experimenting with sentiment analysis using Python scikit-learn and NLTK. Working on a project that tries to predict if a user rated a business positively or negatively based on his review comment. I have access to only the 160 characters of the review (not the full text) along with the rating given by the user. With 10K samples of reviews and their ratings, I am currently at 70% accuracy in predicting if a review is positive or negative.


One week ago I've launched my first project as a developer.

https://magicalpush.com/ (no English language yet)

Magical Push is a social project which helps people to develop new positive behaviors.

Every day participants of a 30-days challenge should do 4 simple things:

- to learn something new

- to exercise

- to do an act of kindness

- to meditate

I've curated a lot of content from edx and coursera online courses, a collection of online fitness classes, guided meditations, random acts of kindness ideas, etc.

Nothing super special, but I feel good by spreading positive ideas and lifestyle.


>Magical Push is a social project which helps people to develop new positive behaviors.

Oh wow, that's really cool! The popularization of cognitive science and psychology has resulted in some really great stuff, can't wait to see what this is! Let's keep reading the comment.

>- to learn something new

Awesome! I love learning new things! I bet this app/whatever has a lot of cool programmed learning tricks to make this great like spaced repetition or elaborative rehearsal. This sounds really cool.

>- to exercise

That's awesome too! Exercise is scientifically strongly linked to a variety of good outcomes for mental and physical health, so it should really be in an app like this.

>- to do an act of kindness

That's pretty advanced! The research about how gift-giving and similarly altruistic behavior is useful isn't as popular as the exercise research, this must be a really cool app with a lot of great empirically-minded ways to "push" you into having better habits!

>- to meditate

....oh. I guess it's just a new age/woowoo thing. Time to move on I guess. That's really disappointing.

---

Really hope you remove meditation; hokey religions have no place in the modern nudge-engineered world.


Alright, that's fun. Went checking and it was in russian. So lucky to be Russian myself :D but seriously, translate first before posting here. Upd: noticed your note, so I guess my bad.


I'm actually Ukrainian ^_^


Working on something called Diamonds - a math worksheet generator for Teachers and Tutors. The google docs of math sheets, if you will.

Also just made off-the-rip, a command line & JS soundcloud audio downloader that embeds metadata like artist, title, and artwork. https://github.com/jakiestfu/off-the-rip


I'm working on a mobile app built with the Ionic framework. It's called Tripfix (http://www.tripfixapp.com) and is a tool to help you plan things to see and visit on a trip away.

The Ionic framework is great, and I found it really easy to get going with. So far it also hasn't yet hampered me by being a hybrid framework, so it's been a lot of fun :) (http://ionicframework.com/)


Mine helps travelers find hostels where there are lots of other people staying (https://hostelhawk.com). It's been a side project since I started working as a digital nomad over 1.5 years ago and has helped me find sociable hostels to stay in so I never get lonely. Uses Ionic framework + Angular.js. Still very much a work in progress, so any feedback is appreciated!


How does this work? The about button isn't working for me.


Right now the About button just shows the same Hostel Hawk popup from when the site loads; clicking it while it's already displayed does nothing. But I'll add more info about the site soon and fix that.

Basically you can explore the map and see what cities are most popular with travelers right now. You can zoom in and check out how many travelers are staying (approximately) at the tops hostels. The app also displays ratings weighed by number of reviews, so a hostel with only one review and a high rating won't outrank another one with thousands of reviews but a slightly lower rating.

My ultimate goal is to make finding popular sociable hostels super easy and ultra quick.


>You can zoom in and check out how many travelers are staying (approximately) at the tops hostels.

I understand the gist and it sounds useful, but how are you determining (approximately) how many travelers are staying at the top hostels?


The weighting concept sounds great. I'll use this for my next Euro-trip! Thanks!


I'm working on http://rationalfiction.io - an awesome place for people to post and discuss rationalist fiction/fanfiction stories.

(You can read about what rationalist stories are over here: http://rationalfiction.io/wiki/rational-fiction)


Wow, this looks great! What did you use to build?


Thanks! =)

It is built with Django. By the way, the project is open source:

https://github.com/raymestalez/fictionhub

(code is a bit messy right now, I have just finished building the basic functionality and now refactoring and cleaning everything up)


My perpetual side project is Antimony: a open-source CAD package that mixes Python scripting, dataflow graphs, and click-and-draggable UI features.

http://www.mattkeeter.com/projects/antimony

I'm currently rewriting the dataflow graph engine. The existing engine is held together with Qt signals/slots and duct tape; I'm switching to a C++11 design that tracks dependencies explicitly (which should be faster and nicely decoupled from the rest of the application).

Working on adding team notes to my contextual app https://www.Ghostnoteapp.com so you can share notes on files, folders etc with others using ex. Dropbox or Box or some other cloud service.

And I am working on finding a better way to formulate whats unique about Ghostnote. Its easy to see when you show the video. But my attempts at explaining it in words falls short somehow I think mostly because the concept is so new.

Right after Evernote integration that was one of the most popular requests.

Privious discusison on HN https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9145007


Currently picking back up a side project I started a few months back called The Daily Drop (http://www.thedailydrop.co). It aggregates EDM songs from around the web into a single location with the usual playback/music controls.

Originally created it because I just wanted a way to not have to manually go to different sites, forums, and blogs looking for new stuff, so I automated it. I 'launched' it thinking others might find it useful. Pending an approval from Apple, a native iOS app should be out in the next few days or so.


Have you heard of Hype Machine (http://hypem.com)? It sounds like you're trying to do something similar, but possibly drawing on more sources.

Either way, good luck!


I'm working on a small visualization article about the different methods of generating normally-distributed random numbers, given only a stream of bytes. It's been somewhat hampered by the fact that one small aspect of the Box-Mueller Transform still eludes me. :)


I'm working on an app that enables people to send unlimited content over cellular, organized into stories. In the moment is when network and context is lost for created content. It's how we should preserve moments: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/keepsake-send-tons-photos/id...


I am working on a habit building app in Meteor. It's really an excuse to get my hands dirty with Meteor, which I am loving.


Found this the other day - might come in handy, if you haven't seen it already.

That's really cool. Thanks!


Highly customizable craft kits. We started with some design and stitch yourself thin wallets: http://fabnik.com//products/bookbinder-bifold-wallet-kit/. Working on a leather watch strap now.


I'm working on www.homesquad.co, it's a HomeJoy for Mexico and Colombia. I started this as an excuse to get in the deeper sands of marketing and customer acquisition, and surprisingly, we're making some extra bucks. It's been very fun, and I hope that eventually, we build a real business out of this.


I'm working on a real-time browser-based game engine. The world will be editable from the browser as well, to allow collaborative editing.

Early demo: http://lumakey.net/labs/battleground/demo1/


My main "side project" lately has been trying to get a job in the engineering side of biotech in the Bay Area. Meeting people is exciting! And part of this has been augmenting my blog [0] with some biology writing.

Other than that I've been helping my Google Summer of Code student with IHaskell [1] – soon we're going to have full widget support, supporting all the same widgets as IPython. Although I don't do most of the coding (the student is quite skilled and incredibly productive) I get the satisfaction of seeing something awesome being implemented for IHaskell!

[0] http://andrew.gibiansky.com [1] http://www.github.com/gibiansky/IHaskell


One ongoing project I have is http://simplesharingbuttons.com.

I've been meaning to do a complete rewrite, but I was at least able to do the most important, functional updates incrementally.

Lately I've been playing with (chat) bots. One fun experiment I made is https://twitter.com/bartleby_scrvnr/ .

I don't particularly care for many of the Twitter bots that are out there, but I found some interesting projects, like @congressedits, @YesYoureRacist or even @TheRiddlerBot or @mothgenerator. I'd like to explore more ideas in this area.

My next big project (in a very early stage) though is a forum -- with a _twist_ :-)


Been working for a couple of months on a League of Legends stats site (http://carry.gg). Development is going well, and I've got a dedicated userbase. But I'm still exploring ways to grow.


Modding one of these bebs for that sweet sound of tubey goodness: http://www.head-fi.org/t/671688/bravo-v2-review-tube-rolling... Super good headphone amp even before mods, keeps me nice and distracted from this thing http://engertlab.fas.harvard.edu/Z-Brain/, a website you can look through the spiffiest images of zebrafish brains, you know.. for whenever you're bored beyond human understanding.

RAD programming framework for WebVR. It will soon have a huge set of features above and beyond the basic text-editor that I've demoed here on HN before. I never really intended to make a framework, but I have ideas on some products I want to build, am trying to make iterating on those ideas very productive, and I figure I might as well let everyone have the core stuff in the mean time:

BTW, I'm always available to talk about projects, if you need a freelance developer or just an ear off which to bounce ideas. Find my contact info in my profile.


Working on a Bluetooth-enabled, 8 button, one-hand chording keyboard. It appears as a keyboard for typing and a wireless serial port for updating the mappings between chords and keys. Apps for Android and Windows make it easier to update the settings. I'm just planning to use it with my tablet (stuck onto the back) to make typing easier. I also love using it for EagleCAD shortcuts when making PCBs on my Surface (the pen input is nice enough when making pcbs to not opt for a laptop). Here's a picture of it: http://i.imgur.com/91nsGba.jpg


That's very cool. I think I would love to have something like that to go on to the back of a gamepad sort of deal. Working in VR is difficult when you have to change input devices. The gamepad is best for navigation, the keyboard is best for text input, the mouse is overall bad.


Thanks. I agree that handling multiple types of input in VR is difficult. That's actually the problem I wanted to solve with this project when I started it (details: https://hackaday.io/project/1321-keychange). But life intervened and the project scope shrunk.


I do some hardware hacking myself sometimes. Been meaning to sew this xbox controller joystick module onto a glove I've built that provides haptic feedback when sensed with the Leap Motion. Hit me up on my profile.


I launched Your World of Text six years ago right here on HN. It's an art site where people can write anonymously on an infinite field of text. In the intervening years, without any active development from me, site traffic grew to about 500k visits/month, then shrank back down to about 100k. A lot of that decline is due to scripters flooding the site. This month, I'm giving the site some overdue attention: fixing bugs, fighting the scripters, and some other improvements. The first iteration of the rate-limiter is launching soon, and I'll then clear the frontpage content for a fresh start.


Open source Hearthstone-like game, except it's real-time (no turns), and it's space-themed: https://github.com/lacker/cardkit

It's an effort to learn more about react.js, Webpack, babel, and ES6. Contributors welcome. It should be easy to build and run. We have a Slack channel for people who have contributed.

You can play the basic game (if you have an opponent) at http://spacetime.tv (very much a work in progress)


Not working for me.

- Uncaught InvalidStateError: Failed to execute 'send' on 'WebSocket': Still in CONNECTING state.

- WebSocket connection to 'ws://spacetime.tv:9090/' failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT


Hmmm... Spacetime.tv works for me when I connect two browser windows to make a game.

a) What browser/OS are you running?

b) Maybe your firewall is blocking sockets?


Just released my first live-action short film, using a combination of motion capture and conventional shooting.

It's the story of a disgruntled startup founder who summons a demon to take revenge on his co-founders - following a YouTube tutorial...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZoiva3DfI8

I'm just in the middle of the publicity for it (film: one of the few venues where it's harder to stand out from the crowd than starting a startup), and after that, it's onto the next film in the series.


My model based development tool is currently on hold. The intent is to make something better than Simulink for developing embedded control code. It's actually time to scrap it and start again using the lessons from the first go at it - some fundamentals need to be changed. An old screenshot is in this SO question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4821102/font-differences-...


I am working on my meCoffee espresso 1kW+ boiler controller with Bluetooth, pressure control and so much more ( https://mecoffee.nl )


Awesome! Reading through this thread, I'm so happy to see that other people are working on things that I've had in my "Someday Maybe" list for a while. Too many cool things I'd like to have exist, and it's just wonderful that someone else is going to do it first!


Trying to get a learning project off the ground that revolves around providing Dev Ops for Front End Developers. Goal is to create a solution for product teams that integrates Front End Dev Ops services into a product with minimal infrastructure integration. Overview: https://gist.github.com/joshblack/64e7c31aa47e19cfb3e5 , if anyone is interested in helping out feel free to reply or leave a comment on the gist.


I've got three!

A highly opinionated project management saas: http://kati.burakkanber.com/

A long term HTML5 RPG project: http://thebotanistgame.com/

And I'm working on a really interesting giga-scale chatroom UX, intended for live chat in a room with hundreds or thousands of active participants. Mostly as a UX experiment.


Powargrid, a turn based strategy, for 4+ years now... Gonna be done Real Soon Now (TM)!

http://www.powargrid.com


I played a skirmish and it was fun!


Awesome! Do try the campaign if you find the time.


I'm working on a dual pane note taking website/app, the right pane is a text editor for markdown markup and the left pane shows the renderer html. It looks like this currently:

http://i.imgur.com/9iUucc7.png

The HTML is rendered on the client side, changes in the editor instantly show up in the rendered html and are automatically saved on the server.

Tech stack: React, Material-UI, Python+Flask, Redis


Might just be me, but I immediately thought the order should be switched. I'll be reading in the editor 90% (left to right) of the time so the editor should come first.


Continuing to move forward my ES6 React application generator [1] along with complementary client-side reactive message bus [2] that can be used as a Dispatcher.

[1] https://github.com/turrisjs/generator-turris [2] https://github.com/rxmqjs/rxmq.js


I'm working on several site redesigns so putting my design hat back on after being neck deep in JS is always refreshing.

Also working on building a community site with Telescope on Heroku.

Starting to learn React. As a non-application developer, I'm looking to use this along with Ampersand to create an easy way to create static websites with it. I know, I know, this is not what its meant for, but I like to think outside the box sometimes with these frameworks.


In terms of creating a community, have you tried Postatic?

http://www.postatic.com


I have not, but I will certainly check out. It seems really flexible, which is great.


I'm working on private hosted Wordpress plugin and theme updates. My goal is to do for Wordpress updates what Github did for Git.

Its currently in a private alpha, but I've already got 26 users signed up! I have lots of ideas for doing automated builds, webhooks, and third party integrations, but the going is slow because I lack a lot of time to work on it.

Check it out at https://kernl.us


I'm working on a webapp that lets people advertise any arbitrary event going on with google maps integration, and with an eye towards making communication between users easy (commenting, forums, private messaging). I'm not confident that many people would find such an app to be at all useful, but it is simple enough to get my hands dirty in webdev. Will hopefully make my first release by the end of the week.


I am working on using google spreadsheet / excel as the backed for e-commerce.

I have built the features for magento for managing products, categories, images, mapping from simple to configurable products, configurable attributes etc. It works well for up to 10K skus.

Looking to expand it to shopify and other ecommerce backends. It would be great to run the ecommerce right out of the spreadsheet (cahced of course) instead of having another copy.


Excel as a back end sound like a terrible idea to me. Any reason why?


Most of the clients are very used to an "Excel" like interact for their backend. I am not using excel per se, but using excel to manipulate data and seamlessly push the changes to e-commerce.

So the user uses google docs and all its rich UI to manipulate data very quickly and with the click of a button (inside google spreadsheet) the data gets pushed to the ecommerce (after validation). The status of each update is then pushed back to the spreadshet.

The goal here is to let users use their familiar UI for managing their e-commerce backend.

It was my mistake to say that I am using excel as the backend. The correct phrase is that I am using the google spreadsheet as the data manipulation UI for ecommerce and then sync-ing it to the ecommerce backend.


Checkout Google FusionTables, pretty much the same idea.


FusionTables looks awesome. I am currently using a simple ETL wrapper for google spreadsheets and it seems to be more than enough to do the sync for limited amount of data. This is perhaps what I need to scale it to larger data sets.

Again, I deally I will use the underlying db for e-commerce as well, so that there is only one data model.


I'm working in a project called Codenizer (http://codenizer.co) that aims to help Python developers to maintain and keep their projects up-to-date. Basically, it verifies whether a new version of a certain library is compatible with your project, checking all imports you do to that library. Many other things are to come!


I am working on an educational project designed to help developers to learn more about customers, marketing, monetization and business strategy.

The end goal of the project is to increase their chances of bootstrapping a tech company, launching a successful side project or a "lifestyle business" while minimizing risks.

My strong belief is that most developers are stuck in a local optima. Depth-first search of professional decisions space is usually limited to software engineering/CS/coding. However there may be many better algorithms to achieve desired personal profits and professional satisfaction. I am trying to uncover such algorithms and communicate required business/marketing/entrepreneurship concepts using language and metaphors from CS/programming.

I have also started writing a book about ethical (minimal negative externalities) marketing for independent open source projects.

If anyone is interested in this and would like some free consulting in exchange for feedback and insights, drop me a note vitalii.daniuk@gmail.com


I'm working on a site that shows you only the free, downloadable music from your SoundCloud feed.

It's not finished, but all the important bits are there (fair warning: following doesn't work yet). I'm extremely open to feedback.

http://salem.io/sketchbook/downspout


Awesome. I nearly built something similar a while back. Glad someone's finally doing it!


Currently working on an open-source phishing framework called gophish [1]. It will let businesses and pen testers conduct phishing simulations/engagements easily. And it's a full web app sitting on a go backend.

I'm working on a web app that helps biologists perform common tasks on DNA and protein sequences (http://genewarrior.com).

It's a side project since more than a year, I started it to learn more about Javascript and Java Servlets. It's grown into a quite useful tool.


I am working on a site to monitor performance changes in popular frameworks like React, Ember, Bootstrap, Ionic etc. - http://web-perf.github.io.

Have seen some interesting trends with these frameworks, like how Ember's new rendering engine is 25% faster, etc.


https://numbers.today

A quantified-self platform that allows you to track your daily routine and change your behaviour based on data. There's an API available.

At the moment, trying to push some features and get more traction. Is getting worse and I'm feeling quite lost.


I'm teaching a course on data visualization, which is something of a side project for me.

Check it out here: http://nsrivast.github.io/data-viz-nairobi/

I'll be posting the student projects tomorrow after the presentations!


I'm working on a single page wiki that uses a notecard metaphor: https://github.com/monknomo/CardWiki

I'm also working on a bunch of batch scripts to manage installing and switching between different versions of python in windows, as well as virtual environment management: https://github.com/monknomo/pywin

I need a new name for that one, because something else is already called pywin...

I have most of a game from a game jam; I just need to add fun. Manage a crop of potatoes: https://github.com/monknomo/POTATO_MANAGEMENT_SYSTEM


(1) I'm working on simple programming language, like forth, but in Chinese. It may also control a tortoise like logo. Just for fun. http://qinmishu.org/static/wangbalang/repl.html

(2) I also created an illustrator software called Suosuoban. It is an illustrating tool that allows you to express your ideas by drawing pictures quickly on computer screen. I think the most important feature that discriminate it from others is "bubble clusters". It is an opensource software, find it in https://github.com/henryscala/suosuoban.


I just started working on a project to continue the work of Carl Munck. Haven't gotten very far yet but I have a lot of ideas.

I'm working on TimeBlock, a new agile work method that helps managers become leaders and help Makers to be more in flow so they get stuff done.

The method is also focused on getting Makers to be transparent once a week thereby informing Managers, in exchange Managers leaves Makers alone during the day so they get more time in flow.

Since last month we have signed two paying customers up for the app, rebuild the frontend in mvc and added a kanban board for managers to collect ideas before they are transformed into TimeBlocks.

Read more here http://timeblock.com and sign up on our launch list to learn more about the method and be the first to get access to the app.


Lately I got involved in AlaSQL - a young project implementing a javascript SQL database http://alasql.org - For the moment I focus on grooming the documentation and the test flow.

I really love the thrill of new projects where you are not afraid to dream and where the impossible does not scare the team. Ok - we meet limits, but it does not limit us from dreaming, trying, learning and doing.

I actually think the 'doing' part is what most attracts me to get involved with side projects. Maybe because people get involved on the level they feel right. You _take_ a task because you feel it's important / worth it.

That's my 2 cents...


Working on Umbrella - a free open source mobile app to help journalists, activists and aid workers manage their physical and digital security on the go. http://www.secfirst.org


A gun shopping site. Currently for comparison shopping and subscribing to price and stock status changes. Hoping to expand it to do some more stuff later.

https://staging.guncrawler.com


I'm working on http://getdrafter.com - Instant mobile application for e-commerce stores.

I am getting close to a first alpha, working hard to finish the last features to get out there.


Trying to find a way to 3-D print a bubble level for a mouse's skull during surgery. It's tiny as all get out. Hopefully it will help our surgeons practice for better and more repeatable outcomes in our research.


Literal bubble level or just notional? Have you looked into using capacitive liquid levels? There are also MEMS levels that are a smaller, but they're also noisier.


http://www.voyagic.com - an app for generating trips/ vacations for over 100 cities around the world, hoping to get it finished soon :)


I'm working on a browser based set of study design calculators (samples size and randomization lists). I'm using flask and scipy.

It is a lot of fun and keeps my theory sharp (I'm a statistician by trade).


Working on fixing the directions in Bermuda. Finding out how to get from one place to another is cumbersome at the moment and Google Maps is horrendous as many streets are incorrectly identified.
