Most of my projects are hosted on Sourcehut, but some of my older projects can also be found on NixNet’s Forgejo instance. I do have a Github account, but I don’t actually host any projects on it as I prefer more open platforms.

All of these projects were created to scratch an itch.

Active projects

These are what I’m currently focusing on.

willow (2023-09-21) (Go)

Tracks software releases across various platforms. Still a work-in-progress with bugs major and small, but I've been "dogfooding" it with my all my private self-hosted services, everything on NixNet, and the AUR packages I maintain. It does work and I find it quite useful 🙂

Adresilo (2024) (Go, Kotlin)

I love using open source nagivation apps with offline data from OpenStreetMap, like OrganicMaps or OsmAnd. Unfortunately, many businesses only update their information in Google Maps; if the OSM contributor community is less strong where you live as it is where I live, finding places can be frustrating.

Adresilo is an interface to Google Maps and lets you search for places using natural language. You can then copy coordinates from a result, share a result's name, address, and coordinates with other people and apps, or open a result in your preferred navigation app.

On hold

There are still things I want to accomplish with this software, but I don’t have enough bandwidth to work on them at the moment.

earl (2022-01-01) (Go)

I take a lot of hand-written notes and wanted a quick way to write down web references. I was unsatisfied with all of the current URL shortener implementations so I decided to write my own.

Finished projects

These are projects that I consider “finished”. I might fix the occasional bug, but they meet my needs as they are and I will not be adding major swaths of code to introduce new features.

rss2fedi (2023-06-01) (Go)

Looks at a provided RSS feed, converts the HTML to plaintext, truncates to 100 words, shoves those words into a templated, and posts to fedi. Supports authenticating with Akkoma, Pleroma, and Mastodon. Patches for additional platforms are welcome.

opml2md (2023-05-01) (Go)

Takes an OPML file exported from an RSS reader, turns it into bulleted lists of subscriptions (ignoring particular sections if desired), and shoves those lists into a templated Markdown file. It's in use on the feeds page.

p2c (2023-04-05) (Go)

Generates cover images for Hugo sites using the page's frontmatter, the site's global config, and file's metadata. It's written in Go and generates images using Gio, a cross-platform GUI framework. It generates the cover images for most of the pages and posts on this site.

go-webring (2021-12-18) (Go)

This is generalised software for creating and maintaining old-school webrings. It currently powers Fediring.net.

Future projects

Tools I want but that I haven’t necessarily had time to start on yet

Alternative Bond Touch client/server

The official app is just an unusable pile of trash. I want to reverse-engineer the bracelet's Bluetooth protocol and implement my own client/server. Client functionality will be strictly limited to sending/receiving touches and matching touch patterns with user-defined messages. Server functionality will be strictly limited to transferring touches between devices.

Abandoned projects

Unfinished tools I don’t plan to finish.

rārangi (2021-10-12) (Go)

A todo TUI that operates on basic text files. Unfinished items are denoted with a - and finished items are denoted with a +. I wanted to try Bubble Tea but decided it was more complicated than I was ready for at the time.
