Show HN: SoundSeeker – Organize Your Musical Ideas https://bit.ly/3F0YKbf

Show HN: SoundSeeker – Organize Your Musical Ideas Hi HN, I've been programming for about three years, and this is my first full-stack web app. It's a tool for organizing musical ideas. Building and deploying it has been a great learning experience, and in that spirit I'd be grateful for any thoughts or suggestions if you care to take a look. Thank you! source: https://bit.ly/3giqrBU Why: Composing music is different for everyone, yet some practices are employed by many musicians. One such practice is to record a musical idea on a phone, capturing the idea at its freshest, and for many, clearest. This often leads to a lengthy catalogue of chronologically organized recordings that can be difficult to parse when sitting down to flesh out a piece of music – what matters most is the content of the idea, more so than when it was conceived. The purpose of SoundSeeker is to allow you to organize musical ideas based on their content instead of when they came to be, and to serve as an educational personal project in my growth as a software engineer. What: A graph-based organizational tool for scratch audio recordings Planned features: in-app audio recording, in-app audio trimming, custom labeling outside of the main tiered organizational system. https://bit.ly/3eF0wUI October 20, 2022 at 01:15AM

Show HN: Lvlup – Habits and Journal https://bit.ly/3Td63Ax

Show HN: Lvlup – Habits and Journal Hi, I am excited to share something i've been working on for a while with you! lvlup is a fun and efficient habit trainer which uses innovative science-based methods and gamification to systematically help you build life-changing habits and get you closer to your goals. It follows a gradual habit-building process accompanied by self-reflection tools and personalized habit-specific reminders to keep you motivated along the way. Main concepts: - Start with a habit so easy you can’t say ‘no’ to it and then slowly build up. Along the way, your willpower and motivation will increase, making it easier to stick to your habit for good. - If you are struggling with a habit, split it into smaller sessions to make it easier to accomplish and maintain momentum. - Journal and reflect on your past progress and mood to keep yourself motivated and figure out why you are crushing some habits, and struggling with others. - Complete your habits consistently and unlock new achievements, titles, avatars and more fun rewards. I am looking forward to getting your feedback on lvlup! Thanks, Erol https://bit.ly/2TpQRUe October 19, 2022 at 10:21AM

Show HN: I made a simple platform to find founders and buy side-projects Hi Guys, I got overwhelming support and feedback from my last post about secondfounder.com but still, I felt the need of connecting founders together so that they can together buy a side project. It's very often when a non-technical founder buys a project they have to find a technical founder to take that project further. Today I have implemented this feature in secondfounder.com Link: https://bit.ly/3D5VSbv Your feedback is always welcome. Thanks October 19, 2022 at 12:10PM

Show HN: HacKit, a macOS app for reading Hacker News stories and polls https://bit.ly/3TyOT04

Show HN: HacKit, a macOS app for reading Hacker News stories and polls I wrote a macOS app for reading Hacker News stories and polls and recently released version 3.0 with new features. It is written in Swift and uses AppKit framework. It is a Mac-first app which is built for the macOS design language. It looks and feels and works like a proper macOS app made with love and care. It is not a port of an iOS nor an iPadOS app nor anything else. I am quite proud of it and I hope you can appreciate it too. So, I recently updated it to version 3.0 with new features such as tracking stories by marking it as (un)read, (un)favourite and (un)hidden. There is also folder management to organise stories and smart folders that track stories by certain attributes. It also supports the Touch Bar with customisations. I would love it, if you could try it out and let me know what you think of it! I welcome feedback and please do let me know if there are any bugs or crashes. I did all the testing myself to the best of my ability. Oh and about the in-app purchases, it is just the tip jar and it is completely optional. The app and all its features are absolutely free to use. If you like HacKit, please kindly leave feedback on the App Store. It really helps, no really! Have a good week! https://apple.co/3c3DGSP October 18, 2022 at 11:25PM

Show HN: Linen – Open-source Slack for communities https://bit.ly/3yLva5h

Show HN: Linen – Open-source Slack for communities Hi HN, My name is Kam. I'm the founder of Linen.dev. Linen communities is a Slack/Discord alternative that is Google-searchable and customer-support friendly. Today we are open-sourcing Linen and launching Linen communities. You can now create a community on Linen.dev without syncing it from Slack and Discord! I initially launched Linen as a tool to sync Slack and Discord conversations to a search engine-friendly website. As I talked to more community managers, I quickly realized that Slack and Discord communities don't scale well and that there needs to be a better tool, especially for open-source knowledge-based communities. Traditionally these communities have lived on forums that solved many of these problems. However, from talking to communities, I found most of them preferred chat because it feels more friendly and modern. We want to bring back a bunch of the advantages of forums while maintaining the look and feel of a chat-based community. Slack and Discord are closed apps that are not indexable by the internet, so a lot of content gets lost. Traditional chat apps are not search engine friendly because most search engines have difficulty crawling JS-heavy sites. We built Linen to be search engine friendly, and our communities have over 30,000 pages/threads indexed by google. Our communities that have synced their Slack and Discord conversations under their domain have additional 40,000 pages indexed. We accomplish this by conditionally server rendering pages based on whether or not the browser client is a crawler bot. This way, we can bring dynamic features and a real-time feel to Linen and support search engines. Most communities become a support channel, and managing this many conversations is not what these tools are designed for. I've seen community admins hack together their own syncs and internal devices to work to stay on top of the conversations. This is why we created a feed view, a single view for all the threads in all the channels you care about. We added an open and closed state to every thread so you can track them similarly to GitHub issues or a ticketing system. This way, you and your team won't miss messages and let them drop. We also allow you to filter conversations you are @mentioned as a way of assigning tickets. I think this is a good starting point, but there is a lot more we can improve on. How chat is designed today is inherently interrupt-driven and disrupts your team's flow state. Most of the time, when I am @mentioning a team member, I actually don't need them to respond immediately. But I do want to make sure that they do eventually see it. This is why we want to redesign how the notification system works. We are repurposing @mentions to show up in your feed and your conversation sections and adding a !mention. A @mention will appear in your feed but doesn't send any push notifications, whereas a !mention will send a notification for when things need a real-time synchronous conversation. This lets you separate casual conversations from urgent conversations. When everything is urgent, nothing is. (credit: Incredibles) This, along with the feed, you can get a very forum-like experience to browse the conversations. Linen is free with unlimited history for public communities under https://bit.ly/3S5HKTW domain. We monetize by offering a paid version based on communities that want to host Linen under their subdomain and get the SEO benefits without managing their own self-hosted instance. We are a small team of 3, and this is the first iteration, so we apologize for any missing features or bugs. There are many things we want to improve in terms of UX. In the near term, we want to improve search and add more deep integrations, DMs, and private channels. We would appreciate any feedback, and if you are curious about what the experience looks like, you can join us here at Linen.dev/s/linen https://bit.ly/3MHMM86 October 18, 2022 at 04:12PM

Show HN: Projectbook – a free collection of 100 project ideas for learning https://bit.ly/3S8wk1J

Show HN: Projectbook – a free collection of 100 project ideas for learning I've been hoarding ideas for what would make good learning projects when exploring new languages, frameworks, and libraries for years. So I decided to flesh those ideas out, create some mock-ups, and share them with the public. I originally just had ~20 projects, but as I kept working on it, more ideas kept coming up and it ended up coming to 109 ideas so far. Hope they offer some inspiration or guidance for those trying to learn but not sure what to build. Projectbook is free and open source. Contributions are welcome. And I'll keep adding to it as I come across ideas, resources, and implementations. https://bit.ly/3VE0j4L October 18, 2022 at 12:16PM
