speaker.app/ - 48K audio / video streaming. Love this stuff. Making a new view that looks at the audio frequencies of audio and moves speaker cones on a screen (different frequencies will shape the cones a bit different than other frequencies).

Challenges have been in developing several core libraries which handle various aspects, making them work together in harmony, clean up after themselves, some memory leak protections, and a bunch of other nerdy details.

And discovering that the firewall wasn't accepting TURN / STUN connections.... That should be fixed now.

Working on a search engine for comic books — plenty of data sets out there, but have an idea for making it a bit easier to search. Even if I end up being the only user, I'm enjoying the process.

I made something similar to this, it was really fun ! Basically a Marvel Database that list some stats about the character and also some top comics.

Could definitely use some rework since I just noticed spiderman wasnt even found lol

I started migrating my business site from Gatsby.js to Next.js this past week, so that is what I am working on right now. I'm glad I encountered issues with GatsbyJS in the end, because I am really loving Next.js. There definitely is a bit of a learning curve coming from Gatsby, but it is fun to learn a new framework that is purer React, and provides me with the opportunity to use functional React and hooks! Way better than class component based React. Am also going to go with Vercel for hosting, and trying to figure out which headless CMS would work best for me, both budget wise and UX wise. Any ideas?

[Maria Campbell]

oh, and I use Jira for professional projects. And will start using it for everything again. Highly recommend it.

Too many to list but for software projects I am rewriting my portfolio in vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. A new resume as a terminal. A component library using Storybook.js and React. But my favorite projects aren't necessarily software, though I need to write some code for these.

Home automation is really my jam lately as I've moved into a whole home now so I'm tinkering with Shelly relay switches, ESP32 dev boards, and all the ways Home Assistant makes me love electronics and tech.

The HA community has several interesting setups and repos on GitHub and I am currently working on documentation of my Home Assistant setup using Python's mkdocs with mkdocs material theme. You can find my docs, which are heavily inspired by MacBury Smart House here: Suburban Smarts

I am currently running Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi 4+ but have just bought an Intel NUC for more processing power, especially when running object and person detection using an open source library called Frigate.

NVR with realtime local object detection for IP cameras

Frigate - NVR With Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras

A complete and local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection. Uses OpenCV and Tensorflow to perform realtime object detection locally for IP cameras.

Use of a Google Coral Accelerator is optional, but highly recommended. The Coral will outperform even the best CPUs and can process 100+ FPS with very little overhead.

• Tight integration with Home Assistant via a custom component
• Designed to minimize resource use and maximize performance by only looking for objects when and where it is necessary
• Leverages multiprocessing heavily with an emphasis on realtime over processing every frame
• Uses a very low overhead motion detection to determine where to run object detection
• Object detection with TensorFlow runs in separate processes for maximum FPS
• Communicates over MQTT for easy integration into other systems
• Records video with retention settings based on detected objects
• 24/7 recording
• Re-streaming…

Working on a library for populating objects. Did a first "multi-release jar" that supports new language features (records and sealed classes) yet is still compatible with Java 8.

[GroupSafe]

This side project as been going on for many years. It is a messaging platform based, from the ground up, on Groups. Its called GroupSafe. Join a Group and your email (or phone) is aliased and used as your default 'Delivery Method'. Then, any Group you join allows you to be messaged or send a message to one or more Group Members. No one ever sees your email or phone# as its aliased. You can and multilple Delivery Methods and then decide, by Group, how (and when) to receive messages. You maintain your Delivery Method details so the Group members don't have to. You can turn off any Delivery Methods by Group or leave a Group at any time. You can create a Group and let your friends know about it, or, if you do have their email or phone, you can invite them but never again have to maintain their email or phone. A Group QR code can be placed on your website (or other media) inlieu of a newsletter that requires the user to provide their email...as an example. Just a start of the possibilities. Mobile apps being worked on ...for now, a mobile web site begroupsafe.com

Released 1.0 beta version of Gaiman programing language and added example dropdown so you can test some apps (e.g. guess the number game). The project aim is to simplify creating web-terminal based applications. Also I was battle-testing my language by creating first app for paid support to my jQuery Terminal and found that the compiler was broken and needed to publish beta.2 version.

Gaiman: Text based game engine and programming language

Gaiman Engine and Programming Language

Gaiman: Storytelling Text Based Game Engine and Programming Language

Main part of Gaiman is a minimalist programming language and main purpose is to help create Text Adventure Games. But it can also be used to create any interactive CLI applications (Web Based Terminal applications) It support browser based CLI applications and in the future also native command line.

Installation

npm install -g gaiman@beta

Usage

gaiman -o directory input.gs

This will compile your source file and generate dir/index.html and dir/index.js files And you can open generated html file in browser and run the game.

Documentation

See Reference Manual on Wiki.

Examples

This is Hello world Gaiman DSL example:

echo* "Hi, What is your name?", 50 # Typing animation with 50ms delay
let name = ask "name? "
echo "Hello $name, nice to meet you."

More advanced example:

def ask_details(msg)

I'm working on a serverless and privacy focused site analytics service. I started it as a response to the GDPR violations that Google Analytics broke. I'm streaming all the work that I'm doing and just recently finished the API, so the front end is up next.

I am currently studying for the IAAP certification (a11y). I'm doing research on frequently asked questions about a11y, preparing for my first Q&A about who is responsible for a11y from the frontend developers perspective, ... very exciting weeks :) In some aspects I am much more confident when it comes to talking about different aspects of a11y than I was a week ago.
