Unnamed project
A consultant (HN user 'brainless', working remotely from India) builds and maintains a property tax exemption compliance platform for a non-profit client, and is building a work/coding agent around it. Incoming data is Excel/CSV exports from Entrata, Yardi, or manually managed Excel in a fixed expected format that is often missing or poorly managed upstream. Development and support are run entirely via Claude Code, with the non-profit creating feature mocks and a Google Sheet of bugs/feature requests. The proposed idea: host a backend for the work/coding agent on a server, with a desktop/web app managing users, permissions, and tasks between users and agents; the non-profit staff could inspect files, generate tasks for the coding agent (which the developer reviews), and email property managers about data issues. Property managers would eventually get their own desktop/web app to manage data at source, with the goal of growing into a larger AI-enabled product for property managers.

blinkbat is making a traditional roguelike as a fun project, and is challenging themself to create the game's sprites (per a comment in a what-are-you-working-on style thread).
EV software
Electric vehicle ('EV') software that syngrog66 is building. It is the primary item in a short list of their current projects, with the author noting it is what they are 'mostly' working on. No further details are given in the source.
perf book
A performance ('perf') book that syngrog66 is writing, listed among their current projects. A commenter replies expressing interest in reading it if the author shares it somewhere, indicating early outside interest.
Unnamed project
A project syngrog66 describes only as 'something edu/political related'; no further details about its content, form, or status are given in the source.
Unnamed project
A design for an upgrade to voting systems that syngrog66 lists among the projects they are working on. The source describes it only at a high level.
ssh BBS game
A BBS (bulletin board system) game accessed over SSH, listed by syngrog66 among their current projects. No further details are given in the source.
Segtax
Segtax is a startup founded in the summer of 2024, focused on cost segregation, a niche accounting professional service. The builder started the company while still employed, was laid off from Meta in February 2025, and has since worked on it full-time. According to the builder, the company is close to automating the bulk of the cost segregation work.
Unnamed project
Acoustic levitation project using ultrasound. The initial version takes a parabolic approach, while a next version in progress uses a much more complex flat plane with a phased array of 40 kHz ultrasound transmitters. It is being built purely for research purposes, with no goal in mind other than learning about the subject.
Unnamed project
A command-line tool written in Go that interfaces with the author's Gramps Web service, built for genealogy research and personal data ownership.
Unnamed project
A multiplayer, open world game in development for about six months, where players can jump to any city, walk around, see businesses, and chat with others.
Turborel
A relational database that the author (alexpadula) is currently working on, named Turborel.
TidesDB
A log-structured storage engine that the author (alexpadula) maintains, named TidesDB.
Unnamed project
The author briefly mentions working on another novel; no title, links, or further details are provided.
Unnamed project
Rebuilding the author's business website using Claude, intended to be '10x better' and migrate off WordPress, after their web designer broke something and stopped answering.
Coach app
A coach app the author continues to update that generates workouts for them; described as really solid at this point and better than the trainer they had, now mostly needing occasional bug fixes or silly additions.
Unnamed project
A personal Apache Airflow data pipeline focused on collecting news. The builder wants it partly for their own use and partly because it makes a good learning platform: news is initially processed with a stronger LLM, results are saved, and the saved output is then used in an attempt to train a small language model (SLM) or similar.
Unnamed project
Commenter describes a project as 'an MIT re-implementation of an AGPL project with a very anti AI community'. No project name, URL, or builder is identified in the comment.
Unnamed project
A hobby electronics project enabling cloud save synchronization between a real Super Nintendo console and emulators. The builder wired the SNES's spare controller port to a microcontroller acting as a WiFi bridge, and uses a flash cart whose reset vector is patched to a small save sync routine that talks to the microcontroller.
forking the internet
Commenter talkingtab proposes an idea described as "forking the internet": taking internet technology and using it for community rather than greed, corporations, or predation.
audio FPAA ASIC for Wafer Space run 3
An audio FPAA (field-programmable analog array) ASIC being developed by Archit3ch for the Wafer Space run 3 tapeout. Work is ongoing to validate the design blocks before the run's deadline; the author hopes for test results on 2nd-run chips that use only 2 edges on the pad ring, which would enable significant area savings.
Unnamed project
A desktop app by bbx for easily browsing, tagging, and rating images. It never modifies (only reads) the user's files, and all data is stored in a local SQLite database. Described as 'Think Eagle app but private, offline, and easy to use.'
Unnamed project
An infrastructure setup for hosting static webpages with additional capabilities — data storage, users, notifications, shared "rooms", and other features — all exposed behind an MCP. It is assembled from free-tier AWS static services, making it practically $0 to run. Built for the author's own use, with the option to grant access to friends and family.
Unnamed project
An idea for signal analysis to drive a desired signal-driven action, centered on grouping, categorizing, and stratifying signals into useful buckets that drive actions. The author points out that blind source separation has drawbacks: it keeps guessing at sources and labeling them as brand new instead of retaining a memory of previously identified sources, unlike humans, who can distinguish pianos from drums and remember the distinction across songs.
Unnamed project
A DSL and interpreter for player scripts in a simple game, also dogfooded for the game's enemy AI. After finding a behavior-tree dependency "too easy," the author built a custom pipeline: typed builders split into an untyped AST and a typed IR, then a TypeScript schema feeding a TypeScript codegen step that emits .ts/.rs build artifacts. Described as a fun two-week side project, not counting time spent reading PL literature.
Unnamed project
davidkellis, recently laid off, is building a new PaaS offering and communications suite. Nothing has been shown publicly yet; they hope to present it soon.
Unnamed project
A personal home lab project: piecing together a SAN and some compute from old parts the author has lying around plus second-hand servers, housed in a new rack, alongside setting up a bespoke home network instead of relying on ISP-provided equipment.
