I think about something for developers, tool that helps for formatting, or checking some things.

interactive tutorial how to do something: create package, ...
some math tools that works with bigintegers or bigrationals (i can help)
something like steganography library but this is already exists
- github.com/auyer/steganography

This have very few similar projects:

Print the dependency graph of a Go package.

General idea:

try to make some existing libraries better by using more abstraction (more use cases)

Can you give some information about the second one?

Something like this but for go

Main idea: A lot of libraries exist that performs operations only with floats and calculations have unpredictable error. And some libraries can be "moved" to rational domain.

Example of code:

const { r } = require('./my-big-rat');

console.log(0.2 + 0.1); // 0.30000000000000004
const some = r(0.2).add(r(0.1));
console.log(some); // 3/10
console.log(some.toDecimal()); // 0.3
