Useless things? ➰🗿🤏
On creating useless things
I like making software things that may not quite be useless, but only get used by me. I like making whatever I have a whim to make. I don't have to care about what anyone else wants or needs.
List of almost-useless things I made
- jhttpd - web server - no one should use it
- Jix - client for LJ scrapbook - long since stopped working
- Compositor - desktop UI framework
- Jetris - version of a well known game
- ShowGC - garbage collection log viewer
- RETest - regex test bed (and sanity saver)
- Tilex - desktop tile maker
- Quircus - IRC client
- FTree - file manager
- Snowflake - symmetrical drawing app
- anims - terminal animation framework
- Jemi - Gemini client
- Rolling Island - game for mobile - available on PocketCode app
- PocketPinball - game for mobile - in progress
- Whitespace - esoteric language implementation
- Hashtag crawler for Geminispace
- Gallery tabs - browser extension, opens images in tabs
- Tinymine - game for Thumby - in progress
Some of these are publicly available. I'm not linking to any of them, though.
