I'm writing a Typescript interface for the Phillips Hue APIv2 because none of the existing solutions supported gradient light-strips, its called Hue-Sync and its part of a larger side project that will become the open source alternative to the $300 Phillips HDMI Sync box

The Tails V2 beta is already being tested by a few users!

We've done the groundwork for our API too!

Creating @tailwindcss sites using @laravelphp is going to be easier than ever before 🔥

I'm so excited for this new version of Tails 🚀 Coming soon 😊

Made a lil SMS app to text my ideas and have them be texted back to me later. I was already texting myself ideas so I figured it'd be nice to have them be sent back, ranked, and searchable.

Good idea! Why don't you develop a Telegram bot? The porting should be simple and you could have a wider audience that would use the app!

Devin de Hueck • Jul 26 '22

Great idea - I had looked at WhatsApp but that seemed too involved. I’ll give Telegram a look!

Devin de Hueck • Jul 31 '22

Just added to telegram! t.me/galaxi_me_bot

Daniel Zotti • Aug 1 '22

It works like a charm.. Is the code on GitHub?

Khokon M. • Jul 21 '22

That's really good work man! And the idea is totally mind blowing. Keep it up.

Devin de Hueck • Jul 21 '22

Thanks let me know if you try it out and have any feedback!

Frank Font • Jul 17 '22

Site looks nice!

Apoorva CG • Jul 18 '22

ThankU @frankfont

I love the frosted glass look over the moving gradient! Nicely done 🫶

Apoorva CG • Jul 20 '22

ThankU @toddpress

James 'Dante' Midzi • Jul 18 '22

Ooh, this is nice... I never thought about about the blur effect

Apoorva CG • Jul 19 '22

give it a try, you will like it!

I am currently on the verge of burning out, so over the weekend I want to limit coding time, and focus my energy outward by connecting with people. I've reactivated my twitter account, and this reply is my actually very first interaction on dev.to!

I'll be brainstorming blog post ideas and other ways to document my journey. Unfortunately I've been neglecting the networking part, so I hope to connect with the community more.

I hope to have my portfolio deployed in the next week or two.

Todd Pressley • Jul 19 '22

@frankfont has it right… you’ve got the right mindset

Frank Font • Jul 17 '22

Good choice Allan! Tech is good, but without people it is empty.

Dennis Persson • Jul 17 '22

Currently I'm working on my blog most of the time. I have some improvements I need to do but as always it is intriguing to develop new features.

Thinking about a 3D animation, but I think I maybe have do something about the memes page firsts :)

Todd Pressley • Jul 19 '22

Read your development analogy to the human body article… love it, man! Great work! Best analogy I’ve heard used to explain that concept.

Dennis Persson • Jul 19 '22

Thanks Todd! Glad you liked it :) That's actually my least read article by far. Not many people have viewed it, the title must not have been very alluring.

Stefan Wuthrich • Jul 18 '22

I did another SEO round for my Job boards for #Golang Jobs and #JavaScript Jobs

Ben Halpern • Jul 18 '22

Nice

Tim Bachmann • Jul 17 '22

I have recently started to dabble in go and made a commenting api for my personal website.

I also have an idea for a SaaS project for sport coaches and teachers that I might try to build over the summer.

Frank Font • Jul 17 '22

Neat projects!

I am currently studying DS and ML. I finished and earned 10 certificates from Kaggle tutorials. Of course, I enrolled Deep Learning Specialization from Coursera which are provided by DeepLearning.ai (Andrew). By now, I am on the third course.

Richard Guay • Jul 18 '22

My main side projects are still Modal File Manager and EmailIt. They are both Wails version 2 apps that I use everyday in my workflow. These keep me busy on my spare time (which isn’t much!).

Jesus Guerrero • Jul 18 '22

This is an project image generator that you use in the readme?

I like how well documented are your readme's.

Richard Guay • Jul 19 '22

I used socialify.git.ci/ to create the image. Thanks for reading the README. It’s long, but the project is complex. I haven’t finished documenting most of the features yet.

Working on a free staking crypto rates comparator.

It's written in NextJs and deployed on vercel.

I currently compare 25 exchanges and more than 500 coins.

I first created this because I wanted to find the best place to stake MATIC.

But I'm pretty sure right now, the right way to go is to stake ethereum as you can get 10,63% not locked with rewards distributed daily!

I posted about my side project on here and on IH - it's an open source Stripe App that shows you how to build an end-to-end app on for Stripe's Dashboard

Matt Eland • Jul 19 '22

I'm a little late to this, but I was daydreaming while waiting for fireworks on the 3rd and decided to try seeing if I could build an AI to play the One Night Ultimate Werewolf social deduction game against itself using a limited number of roles, probabilistic modeling, and some form of reinforcement learning. The project is coming along, but it's not capable of lying to me yet!
