Current Projects
I wanted to get back to my blog more and using more of what Micro.blog offers. Instead, like I’m prone to do, I started writing code instead. This idea has been bouncing around in my head, having a windows 7 inspired micro.blog client. Once again making it work entirely without JavaScript, because… why not?
I wanted a way to manage photo collections.
I wanted a way to see where a photo/media item was referenced before deleting it.
And see the activity level on those I’m following
I’m not sure if I’ll make this one open like I did Lillihub or replace it with this.
Ongoing Projects
Cairn
Building off the quine base I made for Ink and Iron I got around to building my dream financial health app. It let’s me import bank transactions, set rule to categorize them, list my various accounts, and do retirement projections. One neat thing I added was lifecycle events that let me add in logic to my 12-month rolling average for categories. So, for example, I can list my groceries as going down when a child goes off to college, which is then captured in my projections. Again, single file local first with encrypted backups on Micro.blog
Ink and Iron
My favorite app on my phone (currently) is a little PWA I made that’s first and foremost a local only quine. But I wanted to use it on both my phone and computer so I hooked it up to use micro.blog private notes as a backend. It is a bi-directional notetaking app. Plain text, except for markdown img tags. Since I made it I’ve added in a diary mode.
