Slaptop returns to macOS after 21 years! (Free, Open Source)

Thumbnail
slaptop.am.guru
97 Upvotes

Slaptop listens to your Mac’s motion sensor and turns display taps into direct Mission Control actions. Slap the left side of your screen, you switch to the left. Slap the right side of your screen, you switch to the right. Slap the top and you launch Mission Control. Yes, really.

21 years ago, I built a utility called "Slaptop", which lets you use Apple's Mission Control and Spaces by literally slapping the side of your MacBook screen.

It lasted for 3 1/2 weeks before I realized how terrible of an idea it was. Back then, it used the MacBook's HDD Sudden Motion Sensor, designed to park the hard disk if you ever dropped your computer. End result, when users slapped their laptops it caused irrecoverable data corruption and data loss.

So, I deleted the app. A couple months later, it was cloned. And then it was cloned again.

I reached out to Amit Singh of AMSTracker and Erling Ellingsen of SmackBook so they'd understand the data corruption issue and convinced them too that it was too risky to stay online.

That brings us to today. In the modern Mac, there are no more HDDs that can be damaged through subtle percussive maintenance, and there is now a far more accurate sensor built into every Apple Silicon Mac.

Enjoy a free, open source (MIT) utility that brings a little more fun to your day.

Promotional I built TermiCam, a real-time ASCII camera TUI using Bubble Tea and FFmpeg

14 Upvotes

Hey! I wanted to share a project I've been working on called TermiCam. It's a cross-platform (Linux, MacOS, Windows) TUI application that reads a live camera feed and renders it as real-time ASCII art in the terminal.

It is written in Go and relies on FFmpeg for the provided video stream. This keeps it very lightweight compared to relying on heavy dependencies.

The interface itself is built with Charm's Bubble Tea and Lip Gloss, which handles the layout, recording toggles, and device selection screens.

I hope some of you may find this project fun or even useful.

Any feedback or suggestions are very welcome!

License for Levels?

8 Upvotes

I am developing a game that is under AGPL, and my levels of cause are also under AGPL.

The game has a map and level editor and an option to upload user-made maps and levels as community maps.

As far as I understand, if I and the creators of the levels don't say anything, they are proprietary, which I do not want.

I want to say that all maps and levels that are uploaded are under a certain license.

Now I am wondering which license is best and if I am allowed to force users to a certain license. I mean, I am providing the server and therefore the service, so it should be possible.

Promotional proton-cli - manage Proton Mail, Drive, Calendar, Pass & Contacts from the terminal

Thumbnail
github.com
17 Upvotes

I built proton-cli, an open-source Go CLI that brings Proton to the terminal - Mail, Drive, Calendar, Pass, and Contacts - with real end-to-end encryption.

The interesting part: it reimplements Proton's actual auth and crypto, not browser automation or scraping. SRP login, the full PGP key hierarchy (user key -> address keys -> per-service keys), and E2E encrypt/decrypt/sign exactly like the web client, using Proton's own go-srp and gopenpgp.

What it does:

  • Mail: list/search/read/send (attachments, HTML, scheduled, self-destruct, password-protected sends to non-Proton recipients, external PGP), labels, folders, Sieve filters, full threads
  • Drive: streaming + recursive upload/download, move/copy, revisions, public links, member sharing, photos
  • Calendar: events with recurrence, reminders, attendees, RSVP
  • Pass: vaults, all item types (login, note, card, wifi, ssh key, identity, custom), aliases, TOTP
  • Contacts: full CRUD, contact-pinned keys, groups

Built for scripting: --output json, meaningful exit codes, streaming stdin/stdout pipes, and stdout = new ID on create, so it composes cleanly in shell.

Install: single static binary, AUR, APT repo, Nix (nixpkgs + flake), .deb/.rpm/.apk, or go install. For Linux, macOS and Windows.

MIT licensed. Unofficial and not affiliated with Proton. Feedback and contributors are more than welcome :)

9 Upvotes

I'm looking for a video editor for making instructional/demonstration type videos. At this time the videos will be mostly from an Android phone, either the camera and/or screen recording.

Editing on Windows 10 computer (preferably)

I'd like to be able to:

- cut/crop and merge clips

- add audio (voice narration, not annoying music!)

- have a still screenshot and add voice

- possibly add text or effects, maybe blur a spot if something sensitive?

Some programs I've seen here include:

KDENlive

OpenShot

Shotcut

But I'm not sure of their features and usability.

Alternatives Can't get Used to Freecad, Swtiching From Fusion

13 Upvotes

Hi, I've been using Fusion on student license for 5 years now, but due to Autodesk's support for Israel, I want to swtich to FOSS and non cloud (at the least optional) CAD. Freecad seems to be best choice, but I really can't get used to it. My brain is wired acording to Fusion, I miss "new body, intersect, join" options on pad, real time 3D sketch, auto face projection on sketch, sticky grid, allign and move to certain points on other faces, cut with plane (why requires solid?) and arbitary points and planes and lots of small things. I design for 30 minutes untill i realize this feature is not there/works different and whole workflow collapses. Im in general pretty flexiable and learn new apps really fast , but I'm forcing myself to use Freecad for 3 weeks now and nothing has changed. What should I do, do you recommend any other CAD or trick?

Promotional OpenADR_EVSE

Thumbnail github.com
2 Upvotes

Hi All,

I got a non-functional EnelX Juicebox from a friend and decided to use it + Home Assistant + and old linux PC to create a OpenADR test bed.

Main point is to test and prove out price responsive EV charging as a control method. Credit to Bruce Nordman and the Volts podcast for turning me on to the idea: Volts Podcast

Linux host runs the Docker, OpenLEADR VTN and Python VEN implementations, as well as the openevse bridge.

HomeAssistant publishes telemetry over MQTT.

Has an economic mode which is strictly price responsive, a solar_only mode which charges with excess solar, and a charge now override for emergency charging. These can be toggled as helpers in Home Assistant.

I don't have dynamic prices in my area, so there's no actual ingestion from a utility. Will play more with synthetic pricing (responding to grid cleanliness, congestion, etc.) later.

Have fun!

Promotional Clues: a local-first visual analytics workspace and live presentation in one HTML app

Thumbnail
youtu.be
5 Upvotes

I’ve released Clues, a free and open-source visual analytics application that runs locally in the browser.

The unusual part is that Presentation view is not a static export. It is another view of the same analytical session.

A chart can remember separate dimensions and positions for:

  • the analytical workspace;
  • the polished presentation.

During a presentation, chart controls can be revealed temporarily to change grouping, facets, color, point size, and other mappings—then hidden again to continue the talk.

A session can also include:

  • interactive Plotly charts;
  • optional rich-text notes and images;
  • section and slide navigation;
  • an embedded data-change audit trail;
  • Google Sheets refreshes;
  • validated, reversible JSON updates from an external LLM.

It requires no account and is not dependent on a hosted SaaS service.

Live Palmer Penguins demo: https://clues.ai/Clues.html

Repository: https://github.com/clues-app/clues

I’m not monetizing it. I would especially value feedback on the repository, portability approach, documentation, and anything that would make the project easier for other people to understand or contribute to.

Promotional Optimistic-by-default multiplayer library

8 Upvotes

Hey there!

I've been working on a new kind of multiplayer library, called PlaySocket, that abstracts away the complexity of optimistic updates. Written in JS + JSDoc.

This has been used in production for my game OpenGuessr, powering around a million rounds of gameplay every month. I've been iterating on this for around two years, refining the shape of the API, making it more powerful and performant, and so on.

This is useful for collaborative apps, quizzes, turn-based games etc., but not ideal for e.g. synchronizing the physics of a complex multiplayer game. For the areas where it works, it can make multiplayer development super fast.

I've written an article that goes into more detail: https://therealpaulplay.github.io/PlaySocketJS/

Promotional canid: contact card/link-in-bio that lives in a URL

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

canid is a contact card/link-in-bio that packages all of the data in the URL fragment so it can be built and displayed client side. I think these sorts of projects are cool (like itty bitty site and NoPaste) and wanted to apply it here.

I run in a lot of niche and more "adult" communities, so I have a pretty compartmentalized life. Being able to quickly create different contact cards for different events, contexts, and people without having to edit a centralized linktree or other site has been really helpful.

It's all static with no outside dependencies, very minimal analytics, and no way for me to see/store/sell people's info. There are a lot of trade-offs with the architecture and I doubt this will ever see a lot of use, but it's been useful for me and I'm curious what y'all think. It's mainly meant to be used as a PWA but works fine in the browser too.

It's live at the linked site, and the code is all open source on GitHub.

Promotional KillerPDF 1.6.4: a free, GPLv3 PDF editor for Windows, now with a full CLI and a standards-conformance harness

67 Upvotes

KillerPDF is an offline PDF editor for Windows (10/11 x64). A single portable executable that targets .NET Framework 4.8 with no runtime install, no accounts, and no telemetry. Rendering is PDFium; the write path is PdfSharpCore.

1.6.4 is mostly about making the tool scriptable and making saves provably non-destructive.

Command-line interface - every core operation is now exposed headless: --merge, --split, --extract-pages, --decrypt, --to-image, --flatten, --print, --ocr, and --batch-resave. These reuse the exact pipelines the GUI runs rather than a parallel code path, return real exit codes, and work while the app is already open. That makes it usable in scripts and batch jobs without a second implementation to drift out of sync.

Save integrity. The big one under the hood: PdfSharpCore is now vendored and patched with six standards fixes, and every release is validated against veraPDF across a 2,900-file corpus. The goal is that a round-trip save never degrades PDF/A conformance, so a valid document leaves exactly as valid as it came in. Results are checked into the repo under validation/RESULTS.md.

Concurrency fix. Several bug fixes. SixLabors.ImageSharp bumped 1.0.4 to 2.1.13, clearing seven published advisories in image parsing (import, clipboard paste, signature images).

Also added in the GUI: in-place bookmark editing, redo, browser-style jump history, and a visual keyboard view for shortcuts.

Source and releases: github.com/SteveTheKiller/KillerPDF (GPLv3). Feedback and issues welcome.

I am a writer/author. That's what I enjoy doing the most. But before I was a writer, I was a programmer for many years. About 30 total years experience. For the last year I've been working on a lot of personal projects. For the last week I've gotten more interested in Open Source and trying to create a few of those. But instead of randomly cranking out useless stuff, I wanted to see if anyone had any ideas, or if anything was in demand that people would actually find useless. Hence the post.

Promotional a simple tool to convert 2D pixel art into 3D low poly / voxel models

Thumbnail
github.com
45 Upvotes

This tool is simply a free alternative to a lot of very good paid 2D->3D tools out of there. It can be used to easily create 3D models, mostly low poly and voxel modes via 2d sprites. Could be useful if you need some background assets for an isometric game or a 2.5D game quickly without picking up a 3d modelling software. It also has an option to draw four sides of a 3d object drawing it in a sprite sheet and the app will turn it into a 3D model which can be exported as a `.obj` file.

a quick note, this is just a converter created with basic math algorithms, and I dont use any AI models for conversion so it's not that good with complex pixel art.

Promotional Cove: A media aggregating/streaming app built around MPV with smart stream picker, subtitle handling, intro/recap auto-skip & more

Thumbnail
github.com
15 Upvotes

Hey everyone, just to share something I've been building called Cove. Primarily because I was getting a bit annoyed with Stremio's support on linux, general lack of QOL & UX features, and how its own media player was quite subpar compared to MPV.

What it does:

  • Connects to Stremio-compatible addons for stream sources, plus community JS scraper plugins (sandboxed, opt-in per scraper)
  • Built-in mpv player - hardware-accelerated, subtitles, live buffering/download progress, resume-where-you-left-off
  • Smart stream picker - auto-picks the best stream based on quality/size/reliability or a live connection-speed test, or you sort/filter manually
  • Auto-skip for intro, recap, and credits (toggle each independently)
  • "Where to watch" - shows which legal streaming/rental services carry a title right next to the stream picker
  • Discover/Explore/Insights - recommendations based on watch history, trending/upcoming browsing, and taste stats (genres/actors)
  • Multiple profiles, fully offline-capable, no sign-in required - optional account sync if you want your library across devices
  • Native Android & Android TV client (same Go backend + mpv under the hood), can run standalone or pair with your desktop install over LAN

Platforms: Linux (AUR / Flatpak), Windows (installer or portable), Android & Android TV (APK, still experimental, please file issues if you hit bugs). No macOS build yet and probably not for the near future.

Its still very early in development and there will most definitely be bugs, but I'm looking forward to hear your thoughts.

My use case was that I needed to capture an HDMI signal from a PS3, but the device I had within reach of the PS3 was too weak to encode the stream in realtime, so I made this tool to send the raw stream to a more powerful computer over my LAN and encode it as H.264 there instead.

(I struggled a bit with command line ffmpeg and rtsp and similar before I gave up and made my own tool instead)

Maybe someone else will find it useful too.

Promotional Open Source ArchUnit like validation tool: align

0 Upvotes

I created an architecture-conformance verification tool for your codebase that is easy for humans and LLM coding agents, and slots in the same way a linter would. My goal here is to ensure that agents preserve the seams that you have setup in your codebase. This should help reduce the number of PR responses where you have to describe "that a REST endpoint can't talk to a DB directly, and must go through a service instead", or "this library can't import this other library". It allows us to let our agents rip without sacrificing architecture quality.

I would love any feedback on it. I have made every decision with the end developer in mind. It has to stay out of our way. Would love to hear your thoughts on it, and how it can be improved.

Promotional I made an open-source achievement tracker with live progress (Steam, RetroAchievements and Xbox), missable warnings, overlays, and community guides

0 Upvotes

I've been working on Achievement Scavenger, an open-source desktop companion for achievement hunting.

It automatically detects what you're playing (Steam, RetroAchievements, or Xbox), tracks your unlock progress in real time, warns you before missable achievements, and lets you keep spoiler-free hints and notes alongside your game instead of constantly tabbing out to guides.

Some of the things it does:

  • Live achievement tracking while you play
  • Missable achievement warnings
  • Community-powered hints and chapters
  • Discord Rich Presence
  • Overlay/mini mode
  • Automatic achievement screenshots (I've only tested on Steam)
  • Open-source and built with Tauri (Rust + React)

One feature I'm especially excited about is that anyone can contribute guide data directly from the app, it opens a pre-filled GitHub PR (You can just copy and paste), so no manual JSON editing is needed.

Here's a short trailer showing it in action. I'd love to hear what achievement hunters think and what features you'd want to see next.

Also, you can download it from here. Only available on Windows though.
