I’d like to share a project I’ve been working on for the past year called GalaxyBrain. It’s a tool for organizing information.
Key features:
Embeddable dynamic metadata: as you type, metadata is generated in the background. This metadata can be accessed and embedded directly into the page.
Light programming concepts built in: you can add custom values (think variables) to any page, then reference those values across different pages to build dynamic relationships.
Metadata can be chained together: referencing values on other pages, or by using a formula. Updates to anything flow through the entire system (like a spreadsheet).
It runs on local JSON files: plan is to offer a hosted version, with structured end points for everything so you can use it as a datastore. If you host the json files locally it will be free forever.
I use it to build a model of my life. Everything I care about has a page, each with its own dynamic metadata that updates in real time as things change within the system. Each page acts like a little dashboard for that thing.
The app is pretty sprawling, and there's still some bugs on the fringes. I'm onboarding people in order of signup and fixing bugs as they come up. I wanted to share it early to get feedback and see if I was onto something.
I'd love to hear what you think.

This is the first project I found in 2025 that interested me and seemed interesting. I think it has the potential to be a new form of note-taking.
If I have a chance to see yours, I'd like to see it as sample.
