Show us your half baked, not really ready for prime time projects.

Or just whatever open source stuff you’ve been contributing to lately!

For me, it’s https://openlibrary.org I’ve been working on having author pages populated with data from wikidata. Also a few other small things with documentation and small UI bugs :)

    Haven’t told this to anyone yet, but you did say “half baked”!

    Similar to the idea behind k9s, I’ve been building a rust-based TUI to manage all your standard Servarrs. I’m calling it Managarr.

    I’ve been working on it since January and I’m almost done with just the Radarr support, allowing you to add/edit/remove movies, indexers, collections, root folders, etc, view logs, tasks, updates, things like that. And you can view specific movie info and do manual searches, trigger searches, add/remove tags, etc.

    The only big things left are

    • Finishing the UI for editing indexers and adding them (to support use cases without Prowlarr)
    • Support modifying quality definitions
    • Add sorting functionalities to the library and collections tables
    • Building mock servers for Transmission and Nzbget so I can create a docker container for users to test and play with before they install anything.

    Here’s a few screenshots:

    Once I’m back to not being constantly busy with work, I’m hoping to push this thing across the finish line and get it into alpha and implement all the usual stuff like license, contribution guidelines, CI/CD, release pipelines, adding it to the standard package managers, etc.

      Wow! I wasn’t expecting such a positive response! Thank you so much!

      I hadn’t made the repo public yet because I’m still working towards getting the project into a state that I would consider fully ready for contributions. This means things like CI/CD, contribution guidelines, release pipelines, better developer experience through all of this automation, etc.

      But given the overwhelming response to, I guess, the initial “announcement” that it even exists, I don’t see any reason why to not just make the project public while I work towards that alpha release goal.

      So here’s a link to the Managarr repo, and here’s a link to my personal Wekan board to track my progress towards the alpha release goal, where I’ll consider the project fully ready for contributions.

    Lemmy itself! Can’t say what because I’ll doxx myself since I’m doing the fixes under my IRL name but yeah it’s nice contributing.

    I’m working on a fun personal project to replace insomnia/postman. I am adding pre-request and post-request scripts, open API/swagger support, and NO logins.

        Sure. Since it is just a personal project, it isn’t really ready to be released into the open source world, and it is still WIP. So I will pm you the link

    I’m actively working on a web front-end for Newpipe (Tubo) in my spare time. Alhough the core functionality is already there, I have yet a lot of features/nice-to-haves to tackle, as well as many refinements to the UX to make it as close to the Newpipe app as possible.

      Something I was really looking for was being able to Sync Newpipe with some interface on my desktop, this sounds great and maybe you could implement that as well?

        Thanks for the idea. I definitely have to give this a bit more thought. I’m not sure I want to implement user signups like Piped/LibreTube do it as I would rather keep using the Newpipe app, so I’ll think of other ways of achieving data syncing.

    I thought it would be a good idea to create a port of Paperless-NGX to FreeBSD.

    I mean, I have experience installing it for myself and saw that there is documentation on how to port stuff, making it available for all FreeBSD users. How hard could it be?

    Well, I think I’ll get it running today, then it’ll be time to test all its features. Then convert my own setup to use the port and find all its bugs firsthand. Good times.

    I’ve been working on my economy overview website Keizai for the past 2-3 months. And started to develop the new version of my weather service Serenum few weeks ago. Only the landing page are done for now.

    Keizai are basically all done. Just some tweaks and improvements here and there left to do. Also planning some new features.

    The current version of Serenum works, but it is slow. The new version will be faster since the new API will cache the data. And instead of OpenWeatherMap (that logs “a lot” of data upon API request), the new version of Serenum API will use met.no (weather API from Norway with zero (0) logging).

    I’ve been working on a fun little project, similar to the watch party website, where you can enter a YouTube link and have it synchronised so you can watch and chat with a friend. Very basic functionality at the moment, and I’m hoping to add more functionality over time.

    I have never contributed directly to open source, perhaps because I have never felt truly confident about my programming skills. But I have always done all that I can - starring repos I like, helping beginners with linux related issues, contributing to discussions in forums, promoting foss in a friendly way wherever I can and leaving feedback and reports wherever I can.

    I guess it’s something Yet I find my mind wandering sometimes If I am contributing enough.

    Been working on a personal project to display my Spotify playing info onto a LED matrix display (with lots of visual goodies) and allow for physical buttons to control playback, lookup the artist on Wikipedia, open their bandcamp profile, and eventually to find what songs they do not have on Spotify.

    It’s still in its infancy but it’s allowing me to work on blending software, hardware, and design all together in a fun, interactive way.

    I don’t have a TV in my living room but listen to music 24/7 and my wife would like a way to see what weird shit we’re listening to.

    Just ordered the PCBs for my second, custom layout split keyboard, the triboard. I’m also working on a service status watcher + page called swec. It will eventually be able to notify you through gotify whenever your services are down, and maybe even redirect clients to the status page. Some other features include custom downtime messages.

    It’s a federated anonymous chat system.

    In alpha now. We will be pushing some big updates over the next few weeks.

    We broke a bunch of endpoints last night but it should be back up by the end of the week. If you want to try it out DM me for an invite code.
