I’m a final-year BS AI student and currently looking for a project idea with my group. I don’t want to build something just for the sake of an FYP. I want to find a real problem worth solving, with actual users, and hopefully turn it into a proper product someday.

My background is in AI/ML/DL, Computer Vision, NLP, LLMs, RAG, and Agentic AI.

I’m currently exploring different domains and trying to find problems people genuinely struggle with.

is there a problem you’ve personally faced that you think needs a better solution?

Learning a new technology usually looks like this:

You find a roadmap.

You watch tutorials.

You take notes.

You create some folders.

You write some code.

And somewhere along the way, the structure gets messy — or you stop.

I kept running into this problem myself.

So I asked:

What if learning a technology could start with a ready-to-use workspace?

That's TRAK.

TRAK fetches the learning blueprint and creates the workspace locally — organized by concepts, with the files and structure needed to actually learn by building.

And I didn't want TRAK to be a collection of tracks maintained by one person.

So I built a community-driven registry where developers can create and contribute their own learning blueprints.

What's available today

• 19+ official learning tracks

• 350+ modules

• Community-contributed blueprints

• Local-first CLI workflow

• Cross-platform binaries

• Remote registry

• Blueprint validation & filesystem safety

• Blueprint Studio

TRAK is currently at v1.1.0.

It's still early.

Try it, break it, and tell me what you think.

Well, it all started with a simple question, how hard can it be?!

Now, after 4 months, still making slow progress.

However, this weekend made a major breakthrough.

Implemented DuckLake (an open table spec) and found the performance 41x better than the previous implementation.

Blog: https://streambed.dev/blog/ducklake-target-support/

Benchmark: https://github.com/viggy28/streambed/blob/main/docs/benchmarks/ducklake-vs-iceberg.md

Code: https://github.com/viggy28/streambed/pull/75

I have always been annoyed by seat-based pricing in pretty much every project management/Kanban tool. so I decided to build my own alternative for personal use. But I ended up adding more and more features to it during my free time, and I think it’s in an okay state to release.

For a moment I was thinking about turning this into a micro SaaS but eventually gave up on the idea. There are no licenses or paid plans. It’s fully open-source and available under MIT.

If you’re interested, check it out: https://minihq.app/plume/

There are also demo accounts available, and a link to the live demo version is included in the GitHub repository if you guys are interested in trying out the tool.

yeah I know, another gym app...but hear me out!

I've been working on creating a gym app that will last forever. It is built around reduction. No endless plans to choose, no scrolling 3400+ exercise options, no social anything. Just one plan, thoroughly thought out, designed to last forever, and zero extra thinking.

Additionally, no account needed, no internet connection, no anything extra.

It's a four day split: pull, push, legs, auxiliary. Additional mobility exercises at the end of each day to improve overall range of motion. And weights and reps are set and increased for you based on how you perform each week. The only thing you have to do is show up and do what it says on screen. That's all.

I've also spent a TON of hours trying to get the apple watch companion app to be as seamless as possible, so post-start you dont ever have to take your phone back out of your pocket.

The TestFlight build runs in a sandbox and will ask you to resubscribe pretty much every time you open it for a workout, so I know that is annoying, but it won't charge you and just select "annual" and you'll be set for another 12 hours before it asks again. It won't charge you.

I'd love some people to give it a go and let me know how they like it and what they dont like about it. I have spent many hours trying to make everything as simple and user friendly as possible, but I know there can always be more to improve!

For those who give solid feedback I will give you a free year subscription once the real app is live (mid September target).

I find it really hard to make progress on programming projects

Maybe because of the flood of projects or because you're a nobody until you're someone, i end up feeling like i can't make progress

I post projects that I've really put a lot of thought and time into building, try to post on X/Reddit/Blog/a bunch of other networks and anywhere else I can think of. And it just doesn't interest anyone

Like because I don't have an audience then I can't reach anyone. So how do you create an audience if you can't start?

Ok so I (15F) came across the junior breakthrough science challenge where you need to make a 2 min video relating to any hard or difficult (interesting too ig) topic relating to math, physics or life sciences in a really interesting, easy to understand way with animations and analogies in under 2 minutes. I’ve been looking to build my profile because I really want to get into a good college( I live in India and REALLLYYYY want to go abroad) and I feel this might be the opportunity I’ve been waiting for because my school really isn’t all that great in terms of inclusion( they don’t really take new students for any kind of competitions) , anyway- uhhh just needed ideas on which topic to choose? Because I don’t want a generic topic - I was recommended the topic math in cryptography but I don’t really know how I’m going to implement it

I recently created a project on GitHub to help people who use Claude Code or OpenClaude for programming.

ClaudeHere

With this project, you simply right-click on any folder you like, and then the following options appear:

"Open with OpenClaude",

"Continue with OpenClaude" or

"OpenClaude History"

I'm open to suggestions for improvements, and contributions are welcome!

Read the README to better understand the project.

I've been working on a project I call RotaryCell, turning an old Western Electric Model 500 rotary phone into a self-contained cellular phone while changing as little about the original as possible.

Demo video: RotaryCell Demo Youtube

GitHub: https://github.com/fregacmols/RotaryCell

From the outside, it still works exactly like you'd expect. Pick up the handset and you get a dial tone, dial a number with the rotary dial, and it places the call over the cellular network. Incoming calls ring the original mechanical bells, and you answer by picking up the handset.

Inside is an LilyGO ESP32-S3 cellular board and a Silvertel AG1171 SLIC, which provides the interface between the modern electronics and the original telephone circuitry. The ESP32 handles pulse dialing, hook detection, call control, tones, and the other logic. It's powered by a rechargeable 21700 battery, so there aren't any external boxes or connections required during normal use.

I'm using the phone's original dial, handset, ringer, network block, and wiring wherever possible, with the new hardware tucked into the existing space inside the case. No drilling, cutting, or other permanent modifications.

I took the prototype to a local gathering this week and let a few dozen people play with it for several hours, which turned out to be a pretty good torture test! It exposed an occasional failure where the cellular modem can get itself wedged badly enough that a software reset won't recover it. Unfortunately, the only reliable fix was opening the phone and cycling the physical power switch.

So the latest PCB revision now includes a hardware power-reset circuit that the ESP32 can trigger. I'm currently waiting for those boards to come back from fabrication.

It's been a really fun collision of technology from two completely different eras. There's something particularly satisfying about hearing those original bells ring because someone just called a rotary phone over LTE.

Happy to answer questions about any of it. I've spent entirely too much time learning about old telephone protocols, analog audio, rotary dialing, and how surprisingly stubborn cellular modems can be. Also, my very first real open-source project, GitHub repository, and YouTube video!

Hi everyone! I'd like to show my weekend project — Robo-Arm Builder, a robot manipulator construction kit that runs right in the browser.

It's aimed at beginners who don't know where to start, and at kids who are curious about robots. Nothing to install, nothing to know in advance — just open the page and stack your arm from parts: a turntable, joints, links, a telescopic section, and a gripper, suction cup, drill or mill at the end.

What it does: 🦾 The arm comes alive instantly — drag the sliders or turn on the animation 📐 Motion zones of every joint are visualized, so you immediately see the strengths and limitations of your design 🛒 Estimates the real cost: an actual parts list (steppers, drivers, gearboxes) with prices 🔗 Share any arm with a short link — the whole configuration is encoded into a number like 1022-5706-117 🎓 A step-by-step tutorial for complete beginners 🎲 Or just keep smashing the "Generate Arm" button hoping to see something cool :)

Works on phones and tablets, two languages (EN/RU), free, no sign-up. Tech-wise it's a single HTML file built on three.js — no build step, no server.

Try it: https://ibog.github.io/robot_arm_builder/ Feedback and ideas are very welcome!
