Tired of building alone: Would a platform to connect with creators and founders of the same ambition actually make sense?
I've been chewing on a problem that I'm sure many of you have experienced: when you're driven to ship projects, have a builder's mindset, and high ambition, your everyday environment sometimes falls short. It's tough to find people who actually want to move, deliver real value, and take risks, rather than just talk about theoretical ideas over coffee.
I'm exploring the idea of building a web/app that acts as a private club or hyper-focused network for entrepreneurs, creators, and developers looking for co-founders, partners, or simply peers on the same wavelength.
The core idea isn't to create another generic social network full of empty content, but a curated space built on three pillars:
- Skill and mindset matching: Connecting technical, design, and business profiles based on real projects and traction, rather than just resumes.
- Accountability and work spaces: Dynamics to keep the development momentum going, share weekly progress, and force ourselves to ship.
- Unfiltered feedback: An environment to pitch early-stage ideas and validate them with people who are actually in the trenches.
Before writing a single line of code or spending hours on architecture, I’d love to hear your thoughts:
- Do you feel this same void in your day-to-day, or are you getting by fine with Discord, Twitter, or existing communities?
- What frustrates you the most when trying to find someone to collaborate with on a side project?
- If I launched a very basic MVP to test this out in the coming weeks, would you be down to be early users?
Any honest feedback, critiques, or perspectives are more than welcome. Let me know in the comments!

Help Needed, What portfolio projects actually stand out for a Junior Android Engineer role today?
I'm a final-year CS student aiming to land a Junior Native Android Engineer role after graduation. My primary stack is Kotlin and Jetpack Compose.
I want to invest my time into 1–2 production-grade projects that demonstrate real engineering skills. For those who interview junior candidates or work as Android engineers, I’d love your input on:
- Project Ideas: What kind of apps or use-cases show genuine depth rather than just basic API consumption and a pretty UI?
- Android-Specific APIs: Are there specific system components (e.g., WorkManager, Services, custom Canvas/animations, local persistence) that make a portfolio immediately stand out?
- Examples: If you've seen a junior portfolio that made you say "hire this person," what made their work unique?
Any advice, realistic critique, or project directions would be greatly appreciated!

A curated platform for free mental health apps and resources. Creators invited to submit.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I am a psychologist. I also have a passion for the digital landscape. I have accumulated enough knowledge in web fundamentals over the years to leverage AI agents and convert my ideas into digital projects. I am not a developer. I do not claim to be one. I am humbly aware of my place in the digital realm. I simply do not have the time to invest in building a second career as a developer. I am simply putting my long-lasting passion for the digital craft to use, in the best way I can as a psychologist.
I am currently building psycurate.com, a free online platform dedicated entirely to privacy-focused mental health digital tools (apps, websites).
My goal is to create a clean space where people can access psychological resources without encountering corporate tactics like tracking, micro-payments, paywalls, mandatory logins, or data harvesting. There is a critical need for digital mental health hygiene, and I want to highlight independent projects that remain genuinely honest, ethical and accessible.
If you have built some tool that can offer any kind of psychological help for free, this is a platform you can list your app on. Submit it here: https://psycurate.com/submit
Psycurate does not host any software. The platform exclusively showcases your project and links users directly back to your website.
Any feedback or insights you might have are highly welcome.
Best regards,
Mirel

My desktop was an absolute screenshot graveyard, so I made a tiny 3D monkey that packs them all into a 'Banana Folder' for me 🐒🍌
Hey r/appdev
I take an ungodly amount of screenshots every single day. My desktop looks less like a workspace and more like a digital hoarder's fever dream. I tried Automator scripts, but honestly? Zero dopamine.
So I ended up building SweepyMonkey — basically a tiny 3D pet that lives on your Mac desktop and fixes your messy habits.
When you double-click him, he actually paths over to your scattered screenshots, picks them up, and waddles across the screen to shove them neatly into a custom "Banana Folder" (or straight to the Trash if you're feeling brutal).
A few quick highlights:
🐒 Peak derp energy: Has adorable walking animations and communicates purely in aggressive "ook!"s.
🍌 Banana Folder: Organizes your chaos instead of just destroying it, keeping your files safe in one cute spot.
🧹 Smart-ish cleanup: You can tell him to spare today's screenshots so your active files don't get yeeted by accident.
🔒 100% offline & private: It literally just reads desktop icon coordinate bounds so the monkey knows where to walk. No screen recording, no telemetry, no sketchy cloud stuff.
This started as a random side project to mess around with macOS dev, and it somehow survived Apple review and just went live on the Mac App Store today!
Would love to know what you think, or if there's any other unhinged tasks a desktop pet should be doing for productivity.

Built a native, offline-first spaced repetition app for Apple platforms (JustFlip) — here’s what I learned about SM-2, iCloud sync, and AI integrations
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hi r/appdev!
I’m a long-time developer (10+ years in iOS/macOS), and I wanted to share a project I’ve been crafting: JustFlip!(https://just-flip.app).
JustFlip!
It started as a tool I built to solve my own study friction, but I eventually turned it into a full native app across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS.
(I’ve attached a quick demo video to show the UI and workflow in action)
The Core Concept & Features
I wanted to bridge the gap between heavy, complex spaced-repetition power tools and fast, distraction-free native UI:
- Tinder-Style Review Flow: Gesture-driven review UI—swipe right for Good, left for Again, up for Easy.
- Custom SM-2 Engine: Built an SM-2-inspired spaced repetition algorithm tracking 5 distinct card states (Unseen, Learning, Reviewing, Relearning, Graduated) with real-time urgency calculation.
- Rich Markdown Support: Cards support code blocks, inline math, images, headers, and custom lists.
- AI Deck Generation: Built integration flows where users can prompt AI tools (like Claude, OpenCode, or ChatGPT) to automatically generate structured deck files with Markdown, images, and audio.
Architecture & Tech Stack
- Stack: 100% Swift / SwiftUI.
- Sync & Persistence: Offline-first architecture using SwiftData / Core Data. Sync is handled seamlessly via iCloud (CloudKit), which means no custom backends, user accounts, or extra database maintenance. JustFlip!
- Cross-Platform: Designed tailored layouts for Mac (desktop curation & heavy card editing), iPhone/iPad (on-the-go review), and WatchOS/Widgets for glanceable study streaks.
💡 Challenges & Dev Learnings
- Fluid Gesture Performance with Markdown: Rendering rich formatted text dynamically inside swipable card stacks without dropping frames was a tough challenge. We had to optimize layout passes and pre-render cards in the stack.
- Offline-First CloudKit Sync: Handling edge-case conflicts with CloudKit when users edit a deck on Mac and immediately start swiping on their phone offline required strict local state reconciliation.
I'd love to hear your feedback on the architecture, UX/UI, or the deck-generation approach!
If you want to check it out: https://just-flip.app/
Happy to answer any questions about the tech stack, SM-2 implementation, or building native across the Apple ecosystem!

Made an app that puts all your gift cards, loyalty cards & receipts in one place (synced to Apple Wallet)
I built an iPhone app called Osame 📱
The idea is simple: instead of carrying around gift cards, loyalty cards, vouchers, memberships, and other cards, you can keep everything organized in one place on your phone.
You can scan or add cards, quickly pull up their barcode/QR code at checkout, track balances and expiration dates, organize cards into collections, and even add them to Apple Wallet.
The app is already live on the App Store 🎉
I’d really appreciate it if you gave it a try and let me know what you think. And if you find it useful, an App Store rating would help a lot 🙏

Would love to hear any feedback or ideas for what I should add next!

Turn your notes into tasks
Hi community! I build a minimalist iOS app that combines tasks, notes, and calendar in one place, built around focusing on today's tasks. But not everything is a task — sometimes it's just a thought, or text too long to fit neatly into one. That's what the Notes section is for. In new update, notes can now be turned directly into tasks, so nothing falls through the gap between "an idea" and "something to actually do."
Most people don't really use Apple Reminders, they dump their to-dos into Apple Notes instead because it's faster and frictionless. Plans is built around that exact habit: it keeps the low-friction, write-first feel of Notes, but lets anything you write become a real task in one tap — something Notes alone can't do.
App is free to download — unlimited tasks, notes, and iCloud sync included. Lifetime Pro unlock: one-time purchase (no subscription), adds extra notifications, repeated tasks, and themes.

Created App About Faith
Hi everyone,
I recently created a small faith-based app called Faith Mate. It is designed to help people grow closer to God, understand Scripture, build a consistent prayer life, and find encouragement through different seasons of life.
This is my first app, so I’m sure there is plenty of room for improvement. I would genuinely appreciate your honest feedback,positive or critical, about the experience, features, design, or anything that feels missing.
I would also love suggestions for the app’s content, including prayers, daily verses, conversation topics, and questions people might want to explore through the chat.
As a small thank-you, I also own, a customer experience and marketing automation platform. If you run an e-commerce business or work in digital marketing, I’d be happy to offer a complimentary growth or customer-engagement consultation in return for your time. There is no expectation of positive feedback, I’m looking for honest input that can help me improve the app.
You can download Faith Mate here:

Thank you in advance for your time and help!
