What have you been working on recently? Feel free to share updates on projects you're working on, brag about any major milestones you've hit, grouse about a challenge you've ran into recently... Any sort of "progress report" is fair game!

A few requests:

If possible, include a link to your source code when sharing a project update. That way, others can learn from your work!
If you've shared something, try commenting on at least one other update -- ask a question, give feedback, compliment something cool... We encourage discussion!
If you don't consider yourself to be a beginner, include about how many years of experience you have.

This thread will remained stickied over the weekend. Link to past threads here.

Don't get discouraged by the learning curve. Everyone goes through it. Stick with it for a month and you'll be surprised how much you improve.

The most important skill in programming is knowing how to search for answers. Learn to use Stack Overflow effectively and you'll be unstoppable.

Have you tried using an interactive learning platform? Something like freeCodeCamp helped me a lot because you code right in the browser.

I am working on a prompt to svg generator to compare different models. ie: https://codeinput.com/s/BbfBc550stI.

I have been always curious how different model perform for SVG creation and never found a tool that does that.

You can play with it here though you'll need your own openrouter key (https://codeinput.com/svg)

PostMan clone called API inspector. I work in evening and can push probably 3-5 features per month. I wanted something clean and super fast. https://apiinspector.net/ made C# and WPF.

I built a one command dev environment installer for windows, I thought others might find it useful so I gave it a quick polish, and released the windows version while I work on the cross platform branch. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Highly customizable, reproducible, optional windows sanitization, bootstraps itself.

I have been practicing File IO and Algorithms. I came up with this little program that converts BMP images to a certain filer. is written in C but I am also working on a rust version of this CLI Tool.

Here is the article: https://medium.com/@adrianpolesensky/beginner-project-simple-bmp-image-filter-app-in-c-fd490734162e

Here is the GitHub page. https://github.com/TheSubliminalVerses/simple-bmp-image-converter-rust

There rust version is going to be more interesting since ai will also implement dithering into it?

I had the same problem when I started. The key is to break it down into smaller pieces and tackle one at a time. What language are you starting with?

Stock portfolio management tool. Basically it's cycles through a list of companies, pulls the data of each one, and checks whether the criteria for ownership is hit. If it is, it buys. It's basically a rotational momentum scanner, nothing that fancy.

It technically works but not all the features are done yet.
