I am working on a podcastmanager platform, all by myself backend in php e frontend in vuejs2, but no one seems to care (probably because I am terrible at marketing myself)
github.com/vikkio88/ascoota-web
github.com/vikkio88/ascoota-api
and the PoC: ascoota.surge.sh
Looks awesome so far! I personally use PocketCasts, so it'll be hard to get me away from that. But, keep going with it anyway.
oh thanks, I am not really a designer so I am basically working copying stuff around :D
I will take a look at that
Marketing is really the hard part. I feel like coding has almost become a commodity - but marketing requires some sort of secret sauce and there's no exact template you can duplicate for success.
to be honest with you I don't really mind, I am really enjoying to do that as one of my side project, and gave me a change to test on the field my new instruments that I coded, and new frameworks that I have been studying, like vuejs2.
We built effingfight.com
Mission: Every month we donate to a different organization in jeopardy under a Trump administration. Organizations include Planned Parenthood, ACLU, Natural Resources Defense Council and many more.
It's mostly done but could use a bit of love on social media, Facebook, etc to spread the word.
I'm working on a web app, when-to-reddit.herokuapp.com/
It helps redditors figure out the best time to post to a subreddit.
I'm thinking of expanding it to automatically post on a user's behalf.
Interesting project. Where are you pulling the data from?
Definitely add that auto post feature!
I'm mainly working on my own website, but I'm adding interesting features using latest browser stuff. I just added the experimental Web Share API to blog posts. I need to improve my service worker too.
I started mentorleo.co a few weeks ago. I teach a friend (Léo) to be a web developer, and now we are starting a community with a few other Léos.
It could be awesome to have other developers (not only web) joining the community to give introduction courses to the Léos !
So for my sins I am responsible for the lab environments at a Casino operator - numbers fluctuate but anything up to 14 labs, 700 virtual servers, 75 workstations and 40 slot machines - and all the infrastructure running Windows. Unfortunately our software vendor has no real clue wrt CI etc, all fixes are individual .dll's / config edits / SQL updates etc. So 6 months ago, myself, a server group guy and 2 dba's have taken it upon ourselves to automate ourselves out of the mess. Most of the heavy lifting being done in PowerShell running against vSphere / commvault. Using GIT to maintain dev / release and prod stable branches. Have managed to get from 70 days to build a new lab to 15 ;-)
Thankfully we have shown the value to management and they have made this process official now, I have been moved to the automation group and the plan for the next 6 months is to integrate all the pieces into Jenkins for CI into the labs.
Anyone working on automation Windows server builds from VMware templates, would love to compare notes!

I'm currently working on the Climate Mirror project, which can use volunteers to help archive federal climate data. climatemirror.org
I'm also very interested in IPFS (ipfs.io) and its applications.
I'm always continuing my ongoing efforts to improve my Gift-Registry Web App, DoWant! (github.com/aaroneiche/do-want) It suffers from young-developer syndrome which makes it a little difficult to work through the various problems. I'm currently working on transitioning all the AJAX calls to proper REST endpoints.
I could always use more help with this. Unfortunately, I rarely have anyone jump on board (Probably because the code is a bit of a mess)
So I either could use help getting it off the ground, or I could use some help replacing it with a better system (probably written in Node)
I'm writing a set of python bindings to html5ever: github.com/tbodt/htmlpyever. If you need blazing fast, totally html5-compliant parsing in Python, check it out. It's currently in an unfinished state, but it'll be done at some point.
I'm working on an open-source iOS App that allows you to easily inspect the certificate chain of any website.
It was released last summer, and is already fairly popular (especially in Russia). I would love it if you were able to take a look at the app, and suggest any features that you'd find useful. If you're comfortable working with Objective-C and OpenSSL, feel free to contribute to the project on Github!
