I made Byte, a native Mac app for chatting with AI models. You bring your own API key (Claude, GPT, Gemini, whatever you use) and pay the provider directly instead of stacking a subscription on top. Or skip keys entirely and run local models like Llama for free.
Preparing for a Java switch started feeling like a second full-time job.
Core Java, collections, concurrency, streams, JVM, Spring, DSA, system design I would study one topic for a few days, get busy with work, and lose momentum again.
The problem wasn t finding more material. It was revising consistently.
-> preppingQuiz, a free beta that gives you a short Java quiz each day https://preppingquiz.vercel.app I d genuinely appreciate feedback from you!
Small thing for anyone who supported us on launch and works on open source. We're comping the Hobby plan for the next 100 OSS maintainers who apply. One month, full plan, no card.
I've been building Kinship Vault for a while now. It started on iPhone, then iPad, and this week it finally became a real native Mac app. Proper Mac layout, light and dark modes, and your vault stays in sync across all three. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

A calm, offline home for the documents you'd hate to lose: passports, IDs, health cards, deeds, wills, and the photos that matter. You scan them and they're encrypted right there on your device, categorized by people or categories even you can customize. Nothing leaves unless you choose to turn on backup, and even then it's encrypted and locked to your key first.
I got obsessed with a weird edge case: cruise ports. You get off the ship at 8am, you're back on by 4pm, and if you're late the ship leaves without you. No other kind of travel has that hard a deadline.
Most people either pay for a scripted ship excursion or wing it and hope they judged the walk back correctly. So I stress-tested Routinex against that exact constraint give it a port and your reboarding time, and it plans backward from "get back with room to spare."
For years we tracked time across scattered Excel files nothing integrated, no security, and constant version-control headaches.
After months of building, we finally have something that works for us: LogSheet.ch
It's one simple app for daily time tracking (with automatic lunch and overtime calculations), one-click holiday requests with a full team calendar for managers, multi-company management with role-based access, and clean Excel exports with live formulas and an auditable archive.
Best part: every new company that registers in 2026 gets LogSheet free and stays free forever.
I recently launched Safarnama, a travel journal app, which I was backpacking across Southeast Asia. One thing I ve been wondering is whether people still actively journal during trips, or if everyone just relies on their camera roll. If you ve travelled recently, I d love to hear: Do you keep a travel journal? If yes, what do you use? If not, what stopped you?
