adhd. my issue was never todo lists, i have like 6 half dead ones. its the part where i stare at the thing for 3 hours and dont start. so i made something stupid simple called tinystart. you type what youre putting off (ex "do my taxes"), it gives you a first step thats almost embarrassingly small ("put all the papers in one pile"), and starts a 2 min timer. you finish that, it gives you the next step. thats it. trying hard not to build another app people delete in a week...

I made a free little tool called RepoGrade that gives any public GitHub repo a score from 0 to 100. It looks at things like the README, setup instructions, screenshots, tests, CI, license, env examples, repo metadata, and general project health. It doesn't try to judge whether your code is amazing or whether the idea is good but it's a deterministic quick check for if your repo looks trustworthy/understandable and has all the things a good repo should have. I built it because I kept seeing t...

Hey all , I'm a solo (student) founder and I've been building this over my summer break, so I'd really value some honest feedback rather than just "looks cool." The problem I kept hitting: turning one long YouTube video into short clips for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts takes hours. Scrub for the good moments, cut each one, caption it, reformat for each platform, then post on each one separately. Every single upload. It's the most tedious part of creating, and it's why most people post s...

Hey everyone, I’m validating a physical product idea aimed at busy adults who want to try a new analog hobby (like bookbinding or desktop aquascaping) but get stuck in the "research gridlock" of buying gear across multiple websites. The Concept: Good Quality, high-aesthetic, one-time purchase Starter Boxes. No monthly subscription mess. Includes only the essential high-end tools, raw materials, and a step-by-step roadmap to pick up the hobby and give it a go. This idea cam...

Hey everyone I was hoping I could get some feedback on a word game I came up with. You begin with a start word and an end word. And the goal is to continue a chain of words until you get to the end word. Your score is how many words you used to get to the end word. A train theme made sense so I named it Chooga as a combination of Chugga Chugga + Choo Choo. I used AngularJS to make it and plan on having an app version soon. Please let me know what you think. Thanks! chooga.app &#3...

Hiii I'm doing a user research on how early stage founders are doing marketing. Would be great to hear how you are doing it. Just a 10 minute conversation where I listen to you on how you do it. Nothing else. Specifically looking for solo founders or 2 to 3 person small teams who are actively building or starting to build something right now. 10 min call: Book a time Happy to share everything I learn from interviewing everyone. Thank you so much & Much appreciated team<3 ...

Over the past year I’ve been designing a family of 15 minimal apps in my spare time. I’m a designer, and each one came out of something I genuinely needed in my own life. I wanted to break the chain of my current life a bit, so instead of building a big platform or chasing a startup, I focused on small tools that stay on our phones, do one real thing in our lives well, and bring back a kind of value we rarely get from our phones anymore. Below is what each app is for in single lines: PA...

Kickstarter goes live on July 7th! 🎉

Hi everyone! I just wanted to share my recent project Continuum, which started out as my first hackathon win and now is a published extension on Chrome, Firefox, and its 100% local & private as everything is captured and stored in your browser (no account, servers, etc.) I originally built it during a hackathon and was honestly shocked when it ended up taking first place. Continuum lets you capture an AI chat and instantly resume it in a brand new chat on any of the compatible AI chats wit...

We've been building Fit or Die, a fitness app that kills you! It's a social survival game that gets you to workout more. Keeps you accountable! It's not a tracker in itself, it reads from Apple Health / Health Connect so you keep your own workout tracker. This just adds the stakes. You set a tier (amount of workouts plus min duration) and have to complete that goal by the end of the week. If you die it gets broadcasted to the global feed, as well as when you're about to die or when you saved...

This is my first side project. I personally wanted somewhere I could chat(text-only) with strangers worldwide whenever i was bored without pressure of 1:1 or video. Mostly out of nostalgia from the old internet. So I built boredpeoplechat.com, an anonymous chat with one room globally. Free forever, no signup, no ads, and no pressure. ​ Not looking to build a business, but it'd be really cool to build some place where you can always go back and meet random strangers online. &#x200b...

I'm an AI/ML engineer. Over about nine months I built AutoVidify, a full AI subtitle generator. Not a demo — the whole thing: auth, database, S3, quotas, a React frontend, and a Python AI pipeline (Whisper to transcribe, an LLM to clean up and translate, vocal separation, subtitle rendering). All deployed and live. It works well. It got basically zero users. The subtitle market is crowded, and honestly I never really marketed it. It sat untouched for about seven months. In the end I open-sourc...

Instead of seeking forgiveness, scripture is marshaled in your defense. You confess a sin or petty lapse, and the Counselor for the Defense delivers his case in King James cadence, citing bible verses. You can pick between Jesus, Esq. (default), Gym-bro Jesus, and Surfer Christ. Try it: www.jesuschristesq.com

Call me cynical, but I wonder if it's something not good - like identifying likely vibecoded apps to attack?

I’m looking for new small projects, apps and SaaS tools to try. Drop your link below. I’ll check them out and share the ones I like with a few friends and in some founder/product circles. I’m especially interested in social apps, chat tools, games, creator tools, AI experiments and anything with a simple but fun user experience. I’m also building Ariola, an anonymous public chat and games lounge. No signup, no account setup. You pick a temporary nickname, join a live public room, chat wi...

When I was putting the final touches on QuizRope, an educational mobile app I built that uses LLMs for real-time tutoring and homework assistance, I knew the next logical step was voice. Reading text

For years, developers have debated which technology stack was best for building websites. Some preferred React. Others chose Vue, Angular, Svelte, or server-side frameworks such as Laravel and Django.

A week ago, I saw this tweet: I had just shipped SupportMesh, a multi-tenant AI support platform built on Mastra, so I had opinions from production. I liked the .dowhile() loop, the typed step schem

A month ago I shared Kinship Vault here. It is an offline iOS app for the documents you can never find when you actually need them. Passports, health cards, the kids immunization records, wills, the whole wallet of plastic you keep meaning to digitize. There is a private gallery too, for the photos you would rather keep out of the regular camera roll. I built it offline first and was honestly kind of stubborn about it. Your stuff lives on your device, not on a server I control. You could alway...

Hello everyone, Im a 17-year-old student dev, I finished a project called Horizon 87, basically I made a web app that helps you predict planet parades and eclipses, it comes with the feature of a 3D mode ive been working on using three.js, and oh for the NASA claim, tldr the program uses a combination of DE442s and VSOP87, with the option of downloading a DE441 package, fyi these are the same engines used by NASA themselves for mission control, and ive validated my outputs with JPL horizons and ...

I’m building a small side project called Ganjeolgot.ai. It’s a slow network for quiet letters. No followers. No like counts. No real-time chat. No ads inside the service. People can write how their day actually felt, keep it private, send it to their future self, or let it drift anonymously to someone unknown. Recently, I started thinking about adding a “share” feature. The obvious version was simple: After someone sends a letter, generate a nice image card they can share on Insta...

Last time I did this, way more founders replied than I expected, so I’m doing another round. This time you don’t need a polished landing page. You can drop your startup URL, app idea, ICP, niche, or just the problem you want to solve. I’ll check whether Reddit has useful signal for it: people talking about the pain, asking for tools, comparing alternatives, looking for recommendations, or showing any kind of buying intent. I’ll reply with a short public summary. If there’s enough signal,...

The frustration was simple: remove.bg charges per image, sends everything to the cloud, and if you process a lot of photos the costs stack up fast. Same story with pretty much every alternative I tried. So I just... built my own. LocalBG runs entirely on your machine. No uploads, no credits, no limits. Free tier gets you unlimited image processing. Pro adds video and GIF support, bulk processing, GPU acceleration, AI upscaling, edge despill for hair and fur, PSD export, auto-centering, custo...

Back when I was on MongoDB, Compass was the tool I didn't realize I leaned on so hard - open it, click a collection, and there's your data. No query writing just to eyeball a few rows. Then I moved to Postgres and... couldn't find that. pgAdmin is free but it's a heavy web UI that feels like spinning up a server just to check one row. TablePlus and Postico are genuinely nice, but they're paid ($99). Nothing scratched the "free, native, click-a-thing-and-see-your-data" itch Compass ga...
