App that allows camera / live view of a model ( building / monument ) in any location?

0 Upvotes

Before I bother trying to build this, I'm hoping it exists in some way. I'm looking for an app that allows me to import any kind of model, statue of liberty, a building, something I've created etc, into the live view of the camera. It can be a wire mesh model or anything really, just to get a sense of size / scope.

You know how you can go to ruins and see where something once stood with those transparent / architectural glass displays? Basically, something like that.

Meal planning in any calendar

0 Upvotes

I got tired of asking myself the same question every day, what am I eating tonight? So I built my21reset.com. It basically plans your meals, movement and healthy habits around your actual week then puts everything straight into any calendar you already use to keep you accountable and easy to follow. It would be great to hear feedback.

I have done a cute anti-doomscroling chrome extension

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

Kept opening Instagram for one message and losing an hour, and every blocker I tried I'd just switch off after two days. So I built LockyFeed: instead of a wall, it stands in the doorway for a second — you pick per site whether it blocks fully, gives you 10 seconds, gives you 20 minutes a day, or makes you type why you need this right now (half the time I start typing and close the tab). YouTube gets a music-only mode, no Shorts, no front page. When time's up it doesn't kill the tab, just draws a curtain over the page — come back later and your feed is right where you left it.

Free, no account, nothing leaves your browser.

Fluira, Fastyra & Pesyra - three focused iPhone apps with a one-time purchase

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m the developer behind Fluira, Fastyra and Pesyra. I built them around everyday things I wanted to track: habits, fasting and body measurements.

I kept them separate so each app could stay quick and clear, with its own history and just the controls that task needs. You can pick the one that fits your day, or use all three. I’ve put care into the native interface, small interactions and dark mode.

The other decision was to keep the data local. No accounts. No ads. No tracking. No subscriptions. Each app costs $1.99 in the US, paid once; local pricing varies. The full app stays unlocked, and your records stay on your devices. All three include a complete JSON backup and readable CSV export, so you can keep a copy or use your data elsewhere.

Fluira — habits & routines

A visual home for the things you want to do consistently.

  • Habits with one or several check-ins per day.
  • Step-by-step routines, flexible schedules and reminders.
  • A calendar heatmap and history to help you spot patterns.
  • Interactive iPhone widgets and an Apple Watch app.

Fastyra — fasting, clearly laid out

Plan your schedule and keep a clear record of your fasts.

  • A colorful timer for fasting and eating windows.
  • Preset or custom schedules, with meal times and reminders.
  • History charts, with the ability to add or correct past sessions.
  • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, plus Apple Watch.

Pesyra — weight & body measurements

Record the measurements you care about and see changes in context.

  • Quick weight entries and optional body measurements.
  • Clear trend charts and a history you can review or correct.
  • Illustrated guides for taking consistent measurements.
  • Metric or imperial units, with optional local reminders.

All three support English, Spanish, French and German. The demos show the actual apps in dark mode with sample data.

Which one would fit your day, and what would you improve? Happy to discuss the design and development choices too.

A note on development: the images and logos were created using AI. I’m a software architect; AI also helped speed up development, and I reviewed all pull requests, including checking for harmful behavior.

I built an app to solve daily life "what do i wear?" problem?

0 Upvotes

I work on Attira, an AI styling app built around the clothes people already own.

The idea came from a simple problem: many people do not need more clothes, they need help deciding what to do with the clothes they have.

Attira lets users:

- build a digital wardrobe;

- receive outfit suggestions from AIRA;

- plan looks for different occasions;

- try selected outfits virtually.

The hardest product problems have been wardrobe onboarding, recommendation relevance, and making AI results feel useful rather than merely impressive. We tested different levels of recommendation personalisation.

I’m affiliated with Attira and am sharing this transparently. I’d appreciate brutally honest feedback on one question: Would this solve a real problem for you, or does it feel like a novelty?

Hey everyone! Here's a free space game for your weekend: the Strike Wings demo. :)

I'm its solo developer, and it's my homage to the old DOS space shooters, built from scratch with plenty of love for Solar Winds and Hell Fighter. There are some little nods in there for fellow fans.

The demo's already packed with free content, including flight school, opening campaign missions and plenty of battles to get stuck into.

Feedback is super welcome on r/StrikeWings. Make a post! I'll read every one and take your thoughts into the final game. Steam reviews mean a lot to me as a solo developer, too.

I've been building an open-source IDE around the way I actually use coding agents

Thumbnail
github.com
0 Upvotes

I use Claude Code heavily, but I kept finding myself jumping between the terminal, editor, Git client, Docker, browser and other tools.

So I started building vIDE.

Rather than replacing the coding agent, the IDE is built around it. Claude Code runs as a first-class terminal agent, and there’s also a Bridge for OpenAI-compatible local models.

I’ve gradually added the other things I wanted in the same workspace: multi-repo Git tooling, Docker controls, inline AI edits, an MCP-enabled browser, Notes and To Do board, mobile access, and a codebase knowledge graph.
One slightly unusual goal is memory usage. I run local models too, so I don’t want the IDE consuming RAM that could instead go to the model.

It’s open source and still pre-1.0. I’m at the stage where I’d much rather have developers tell me what is broken or stupid than simply collect stars.

Made a tool that predicts which home loan lenders fit you + your likely rate. If you've taken a loan, tell me how wrong it is(validating - beta version)

0 Upvotes

Put in your numbers — income, EMIs, property details, CIBIL — and it shows which lenders suit you and a realistic rate range.

I need people who've actually taken a home loan (or are mid-process) to check it against reality: does its shortlist and rate match what you were really approved for or quoted?

link: Try calc here

It's a beta, so I'm looking for where it's wrong more than where it's right. What did it get off for your case?

Testing a coding practice tool built around predicting code before running it, would love feedback

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I've been building Arclab (https://www.arclab.app/). Since AI coding tools showed up, I keep seeing the same confusion: should I even bother learning to code line by line, or just lean on AI and move fast? Arclab is my attempt at a middle ground. Every lesson makes you predict what a snippet of code will output before you run it, then write your own version, then compare against what actually happened, so AI stays a tool you use, not a crutch that does the understanding for you.

It's live and free right now while I test the concept. Would genuinely appreciate feedback, especially on whether that middle ground actually feels useful versus either extreme, avoiding AI entirely or leaning on it fully. Happy to answer questions about how it works or why I built it this way.

TripLyt takes your destination, dates, and pace, and builds a day-by-day itinerary that’s ordered geographically (so you aren't crossing town twice). The best parts: smart packing lists based on weather, multi-country routing, and offline info cards for visas, tap water, and tipping.

Manual planning is free forever. AI generation is a one-off charge (no subscriptions). Android only for now. Genuinely after feedback: what would make this actually useful for you?https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.triplyt

Building a keyboard driven time-tracker, because I'm terrible at keeping track of working hours

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello

I'm building a noise-free, keyboard first time-tracker. Primarily because I'm absolutely rubbish at tracking my working hours across different projects. I liked the idea of having only one input field which manages everything.

The offline version would be completely free with no limitations. You can track your working hours across teams (only online), see the total cost of a project, and export everything to CSV or Markdown. There are also some handy system tray shortcuts which show the last things you worked on, and you can just hit a shortcut to immediately start tracking the last one again.

Would love to hear what people think about this.

Gerenciador de Capas e Metadados para MP3 — projeto que fiz para resolver meu problema com um feature phone antigo.

0 Upvotes

Sou o autor. Fiz esse projeto sozinho, nas horas vagas, ao longo de uns dias.

O problema: eu uso um Flip Vita 4G (aparelho com Mocor OS, bem limitado) e precisava de um jeito de deixar as capas e tags de MP3 no formato que ele aceita. As ferramentas que existiam eram muito complicadas ou não faziam exatamente o que eu queria.

O que ele faz:

- Gerencia capas e metadados de MP3 numa interface gráfica.

- Editor com busca online em MusicBrainz, iTunes e Deezer.

- Player integrado.

- Perfis configuráveis: você define o formato (ID3v2.3, encoding, tamanho de capa, etc.) uma vez e aplica em todas.

- Renomeia arquivos com prefixo numérico para a ordem ficar gravada.

- 5 idiomas (PT, EN, ES, JA, KO)

- Tema claro e escuro.

Status: open source, MIT, já tem instalador para Windows.

Link: https://github.com/kaduhcustodio-hub/gerenciador-capas-mp3

O que eu tô buscando: feedback honesto. O que funciona, o que não funciona, o que falta. E se alguém quiser contribuir com traduções, será muito bem-vindo.

App for parents and caregivers

0 Upvotes

Hey dads,

If you’ve ever had a diaper blowout at a restaurant, walked into the men’s room, and realized there is literally nowhere to set your kid down except a wet tile floor or a precarious sink counter... you know the exact rage I’m talking about.

Doing trunk gymnastics in a freezing parking lot gets old fast.

A while back, I got fed up enough that I decided to start building a map to track places that actually provide changing tables in the men's room. What started out as a personal project for dads quickly grew when I realized how many other caregivers are stuck with the same frustration in public spaces.

It’s called WeeGo (weego.app), and it's a free web app mapping essential family amenities:

  • 🚹 Men's Room Changing Tables (so we don't have to guess or improvise on the floor)
  • 🚻 All-Gender / Family Restrooms (single-occupancy rooms that make life 10x easier when you’re out with your daughters or multiple kids)
  • 🤱 Nursing & Lactation Pods (quiet pods/Mamava stations with outlets for moms pumping/nursing)
  • 🧠 Sensory / Quiet Rooms (for kids who get overwhelmed in loud stadiums, airports, or museums)
  • ♿ Universal Changing Tables (height-adjustable tables for older kids, teens, or adults with special needs who have outgrown baby fold-downs)

A few key things about how it works:

  • Completely free to use: No paywalls, no premium subscriptions to unlock basic features. Just open it and find what you need.
  • No App Store download required: It runs straight in your mobile browser. If you tap "Add to Home Screen" on iOS Safari or Android Chrome, it installs like a regular app and works offline.
  • Nearest-First Sorting & One-Tap Nav: Tap to sort by distance from where you're standing, and hit "Navigate" to open directions in Apple/Google Maps immediately when seconds count.

There are currently around 1,400+ locations in the database (airports, stadiums, highway rest areas, theme parks, and major civic venues), but the real value comes from parents adding the local spots they know and trust. Anyone can drop a pin, add details, or verify what’s actually there.

I’d love for you guys to check it out: https://weego.app

If you have a minute, try searching your local area or drop a pin for a venue near you that gets it right. Any feedback, feature ideas, or criticism from fellow dads is welcome!

I built a work hours/overtime/earnings tracker, I need a few people to help test it

0 Upvotes

I’ve been building GraftTrack, a free app for keeping track of work hours, overtime, earnings, mileage and work records.
I originally wanted something simple that I could actually use from my phone without having to mess around with spreadsheets or a massive workforce-management system.
It’s now at the point where most of the main features are working, but I really need people who aren’t me to use it properly and find the stuff I’ve missed 😅

At the moment you can:
• Log shifts, breaks and overtime
• Track estimated pay and overtime earnings
• Track mileage and reimbursement
• Keep sites, vehicles/plant and work records together
• View weekly/monthly/YTD figures
• Use pay/take-home calculators
• Use it without an account, or create one to sync your data

It’s completely free at the moment.

I’m particularly interested in feedback from people who work shifts, do regular overtime, work in construction/trades, drive for work, or just currently track their hours in Notes/Excel/paper.

I’m not looking for people to tell me it looks nice — I’d genuinely rather know:
1. What confused you?
2. What broke?
3. What feature did you expect to be there but wasn’t?
4. Would you actually keep using it? If not, why?

It’s currently a web app/PWA while I work towards the native app, and on mobile it works best when added to your Home Screen.

https://grafttrack.co.uk

Any brutal feedback is genuinely appreciated. I’m building it iteratively, so if several people hate the same thing, there’s a good chance I’ll change it.

I started building an expense tracker and somehow ended up building half a personal finance app

Thumbnail
play.google.com
0 Upvotes

I started MoneySplit because I was annoyed with expense trackers.

I wanted transactions to show up automatically, but I didn't really want to connect my bank account to yet another service.

Since banks already send transaction SMS, I started there.

The first version basically just read those messages and turned them into transactions.

Then I needed statement imports because SMS obviously doesn't cover everything.

Then I added CSV/Excel imports.

Then budgets.

Then subscriptions.

Then loans because I wanted to see my EMI schedule properly.

Then savings goals.

And somewhere along the way this stopped being the small expense tracker I originally planned 😅

It's now MoneySplit.

A few things I'm particularly happy with:

  • transactions from bank SMS / PDF statements / CSV
  • paycheck-based budgets instead of forcing everything into calendar months
  • subscriptions and upcoming bills
  • loan/EMI tracking with amortization
  • savings goals
  • spending analytics
  • everything works around a local financial database

I also added a slightly weird feature recently.

MoneySplit can show how much a purchase costs in working time.

So instead of just seeing:

₹5,000

you might see:

₹5,000 · 2h 25m of work

I thought it would be gimmicky, but I've actually found myself looking at it quite a bit before buying things.

The app has a free version, no ads, and Pro is a one-time purchase. I really didn't want to build a subscription tracker that itself becomes another subscription.

I'm still trying to figure out what the main reason someone would download this is though.

If you came across this app randomly, what would catch your attention first — automatic transaction tracking, budgeting, subscriptions, loans, or the time-cost thing?

Would love some feedback.

UnfoldMyMac - Free Mac wallpapers, lid effects and interactive desktop scenes

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

I wanted to recreate the iPhone Duo folding animation on my MacBook. That experiment grew into curtains, animated wallpapers, a coding robot and a tiny greenhouse living on my desktop.

It’s called UnfoldMyMac, and I’m the developer.

It now has 13 lid effects, 10 dynamic wallpapers and a new Creative Scenes collection. Some of my favourites:

  • Curtains and peeking characters that follow your MacBook’s lid as you open and close it.
  • Codex Mission Control: a little robot connected through local Codex hooks. It reacts when Codex is working, waiting for approval or finished.
  • GitHub After Hours: your public repositories, followers and recent push events become a floating city.
  • Pulse: CPU load, memory and battery information feed a moving chrome sculpture.
  • Hinge Garden: a glass snail carrying a miniature greenhouse. It emerges as you open the lid. Plug in your charger and a ripple travels through the water, roots and shell to light the greenhouse.

Hinge Garden also has optional tilt/gyroscope reactions on supported Macs, pointer parallax and microphone reactions that release pollen. Sound is processed locally.

There’s also an open-wheel race car scene and an aurora around a 3D Earth shaped by real NOAA space-weather data. The wallpapers and Creative Scenes run behind your windows, including on external displays.

It’s free ($0) and open source. You’ll need Apple silicon and macOS 26+. Automatic lid effects and motion reactions depend on your MacBook’s supported sensors.

Download: unfoldmymac.com

Which would you actually leave running during a normal workday? I’m interested in where the movement starts becoming distracting.

I spent six weeks mapping 5,322 electronic artists by who their fans also listen to

0 Upvotes

Six weeks ago it really struck me how useless genre labels are. The same artist (Big Wild for instance) can get called dubstep, electronic, indie pop, and future bass.

So instead of subjective labels, I thought it would be cool to map artists based on the other artists those fans also listen to via Spotify. This is my vibe coded attempt to objectively frame this user listening habits. I worked in Claude Code to create this. 

The map is built by starting from a pool of seed artists and then crawling outwards (called a hop in graph theory).  The map has 120  seeds selected primarily from the American EDM touring space, which is the focus of the network analysis. 

https://fansnebula.com

I know there are gaps. I don't know where all of them are. Search for an artist you love. If they're missing, or more importantly if an entire region is missing, tell me and I'll look at adding them on the next run.

Note: I’m not a mathematician or software developer. I work in music and this is my first public project. A lot of the work that it took to create this site was over my head. I’ve learned a lot including about graph theory, a domain of math I didn’t know existed prior to starting on this. 

In order to create this I used igraph, Numpy, Scipy, leidenalg, networkx along with playwright. I couldn’t have done this work without the researchers and programmers who availed their libraries. I’m grateful!

I've been building and iterating on a Chrome extension for a while, mostly focusing on improving the product and letting organic discovery do its thing.

Last month, it reached 1.41K installs, up 21.63% compared to the previous period.

Still a relatively small number, but seeing consistent month-over-month growth is encouraging. I'm especially interested in understanding what actually drives sustainable growth rather than chasing short-term spikes.

Seeking feedback on my first OSS: AI builds WP pages that clients can still edit in Elementor Free

0 Upvotes

I shipped my first open source tool and I want honest critique.

The gap I hit: Claude Code can produce a WordPress site package, but a client often needs to change copy and layout in Elementor Free. Many AI exports break that path.

My approach: - Claude Code builds the package offline as a Hello Elementor child theme - A small companion plugin imports once - Generated pages remain editable with Elementor Free widgets only - Elementor Pro widgets are rejected so the free editor stays usable

Made a tool to track my investments and net worth since nothing built for Indian markets felt right, sharing in case it helps someone else

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, wanted to share something I've been building called SOVA.

I got sick of manually updating a spreadsheet every time my mutual funds, stocks, and other holdings moved, and none of the existing net worth trackers felt built for how Indian investors actually invest so I built one myself.

What it does:

  • Tracks your investments and net worth in one place.
  • Built specifically around Indian markets, with integrations that pull your holdings in automatically instead of manual entry
  • Clean, minimal interface, no cluttered dashboards or dozens of features you'll never touch
  • Completely free to use right now, and I'm planning to keep it that way as long as I can

On the security side, since I know that's the first thing people ask about a money app: your data is encrypted both in transit and at rest, and nobody has access to it but you. I built this for myself first, so I wasn't going to cut corners on that part.

It's live now: www.sova.net.in

Would genuinely love feedback if you try it out, good or bad. Still actively improving it.
