What is the most useful (and the most useless) Open Source tool?
Hey PH community!
I was recently reflecting on the open-source projects that bring massive daily value versus those that are just cool, experimental concepts. I'd love to hear what your tech stack looks like.
I'll start with mine:
Most useful - as working in wellness healthcare, my fav right now is Open Wearables. It is incredibly useful because it finally allows me to easily integrate and sync health data across various different wearable devices without a headache. (Fun fact: I just saw they are actually launching on Product Hunt today! You can check them out here: https://www.producthunt.com/products/open-wearables?launch=open-wearables-3
Least useful (but incredibly cool): For this one, I have to go with NMTV (https://www.producthunt.com/products/nmtv). From a generative AI perspective, itโs a fascinating and mind-bending project, but in terms of daily utility? Zero. Still love that it exists though!
Now it's your turn:
What is the one Open Source tool you actually use all the time?
What is a tool that is totally useless or overhyped, but maybe still interesting?
Drop your picks below! ๐
