Retro vibes with LLMs

Love using LLMs in my daily work, and I often miss the charm of a retro terminal. I know LLM providers offer CLI tools, which I also use, but none of them capture the feel of the classic terminal era. So I built one that uses Gemini in the background.

Just a heads up, you will need to create an API key in Google AI Studio to use it.

Hope you enjoy it :)

Trying Out New Ideas

I recently wanted to expand what I usually build as side projects and generate fresh ideas. I came across a JavaScript library I really liked called Tone.js, and used it to create a simple audio sampler and drum machine in a single app, just a basic version, but still a fun experience.

Here’s the workflow: record an audio clip, trim it, and assign it to a pad. Tweak the audio in the FX rack, then place it on the timeline by clicking the corresponding row. You can also upload a clip or drag and drop audio files onto a pad.
