Projects

cloud.local

This one's cheeky since .local will not resolve. The ideas is that you add it to your hosts file and it lists your machines, hadoop style distributed file system, manage keys and stuff - like a web services where you can launch tasks and schedule stuff, but it's all using your own hardware

pyv

Python version manager, simple like tj/n

• So https://pypi.org/project/pyv/ is probably a better name, pv is used to monitor progress of data being sent through a pipe.
• worth exploring to see how good of a job asdf does with this.
  • ok so that uses python-build, which is nice.
    • usage for asdf is asdf global install latest, then notice the version it says is not installed, then asdf install python 3.11.1 for example takes care of that. A bit cumbersome.

Command line editor test suite

Editor config testing that wraps the cli to see what effects it has... surprisingly hard so far

Search engine

how hard could it be? :)

Groundhog offline-first browser

Have a filesystem stored within the app that can be copied between machines, and synced

so that things like password store can live within the browser, and don't need a special desktop app component to work

Dark mode theme for mediawiki

• So this exists, and it's visible in the user preferences, but it doesn't work in the new vector 2022 theme.
  • noticed a flash of inverted images, which can be kinda distracting / unsettling

+ Browser API that allows users to input their cookie preferences so they don't have to deal with 1000 popups

• Free prison phone, still a good idea

• write some unit tests for fish-functions
• better browser password manager integration
• Browser/extension that makes it easy to whitelist / blacklist domains like outbrain

• A text oriented calendar that you can do things like create an event "doctor appt monday 9pm" that will smartly make that on the next monday and give you controls for editing it. Things like places, people autocomplete with past events

• Could do another python class, at the local maker space
• Desktop environment that uses alt as the primary key and has emacs keybindings everywhere like osx

Thinking about projects some more, projects don't have to be totally novel or anything... like a decent project could be to get markdown working instead of / alongside wikitext here.

Editor that doesn't go fullscreen by default

I have this somewhere on this website I think, that wording is too familiar. fjord working title
