Steal My Ideas

I often come up with ideas on the kind of products I want to build, but a combination of not having enough time, laziness and procrastination has led me to not being able (yet) to build on them. So why should I just let them sit in my head ? Here, I present some of them. Do you find these interesting ? Give it a shot ? Made something based on it ? I would love to see them ! Want me to help you fix it, suggest improvements or help you code them up ? Reach out to me !

Decentralized Photo Manager

History through Rivers

There is a website that shows a scroll bar to select the century/ year and then shows the corresponding empires on the section of the map that the user has zoomed-in. This would be an interesting idea to do the same but with rivers

Splitwise Clone

A free expense management app like Splitwise, that is as a bonus, decentralized (similar to the photos idea I mentioned above)

3-D TODO Tree viewer

Why is every TODO app a boring 2-D version that deals with just a flat list ? Why can’t tasks on the list spawn sub-tasks and why just one sub-task when I can have sub-trees of them ? And why are all the interactions so boring and typical, when I could take a leaf out of Sci-Fi and interact with a 3-d version, like a video game, as seen in The Jurassic Park ?

SIMD visualizer

A webpage that simulates SIMD instructions and shows visually how the lanes in vectors are manipulated with each instruction. An input text box takes a statement like uint32x4_t a = vaddq_u32(b, c); and shows the layout of b, c, a and how the value changes when instructions are executed. Do this for plenty of instructions and get people to become familiar with SIMD programming.

K9s CLI on the web

https://k9scli.io/

My colleague showed me this tool and its absolutely amazing way to interact with kubernetes. However, I think it would be even more amazing if it were a web app, that can auto interact with Azure (as I use Azure at work), use my cookies to auhenticate with azure and interact with the kubernetes cluster right from my browser.
