I Want to Make the Most Beautiful, Aesthetic, Free and Open-source Platform for Learning Japanese

The idea is actually quite simple. As a Japanese learner and a coder, I've always wanted there to be an open-source, 100% free for learning Japanese, similar to Monkeytype in the typing community.

Unfortunately, pretty much all language learning apps are closed-sourced and paid these days, and the ones that *are* free have unfortunately been abandoned.

But of course, just creating yet another language learning app was not enough - there has to be a unique selling point. And then I thought? Why not make it crazy and do what no other language learning app *ever* did - add a gazillion different color themes and fonts, to really hit it home and honor the app's original inspiration, Monkeytype?

And so I did. Now, I'm looking to find contributors and testers for the early stages of the app.

Why? Because weebs and otakus deserve to have a 100% free, beautiful, quality language learning app too！

P.S. You can check it out and see if the project is potentially worth anything at --> https://kanadojo.com (the Github repo is right there too!)

How do I start opensource?

I have tried looking at popular projects but they are either something that i can't understand at all or if i do fine something that i can do such issues are already assigned.

I want to find a beginner friendly place where I can get issues easily. Kindly guide me.

Library Compose Shape Fitter – Shape Approximation from Points in Kotlin

I’ve been experimenting with geometry + Kotlin and put together a small library called Compose Shape Fitter.

It takes a sequence of points (for example, from touch input) and can either:

Draw them directly inside a `DrawScope`
Or approximate them as a shape (currently: Circle, Ellipse, Triangle, Square, Pentagon, Hexagon, Oriented Bounding Box).

Introducing Molecule UI v1

# Introducing Molecule UI

We are happy to introduce Molecule UI v1. https://www.moleculeui.design/

Molecule UI is built on the idea of making animated component easily accessible to the developers.
It is built on top of the Shadcn CLI to make distribution streamlined. Animation are handled using Motion and CSS animations. Tailwind is used for styling and radix UI for accessibility.

Instead of just giving you building blocks Molecule UI aims at providing plug and play, component and blocks. We aim to provide every required section for a APP.

Such as
\- Hero Sections
\- Login Pages
\- Chat list
\- Chat UI
\- React Flow Component
\- Plug and Play Rich Text Editor
and many more in coming days.

As of now in v1 we have following component Live
\- Accordion
\- Checkbox
\- Warp Dialog
\- Discussion
\- Expandable Button
\- Voice Input
and 10 more Ready to use components

We are a open source project under MIT license and looking for contributors. If you are interested take a fork of our repo and start creating amazing things. https://github.com/molecule-lab/molecule-ui/fork

Open Source Chatting App?

Is there any open source chatting app that allows full customization? For isntance it needs to fulfill some requirements, so here they go:

\- It needs to support at the very least android

\- It needs to have some sort of encryption to avoid leaking the contents of the messages

\- It needs to have the server and client open source, since I want to add new features on top of it

\- Having some kind of resource that helps modifying the code would be good but not mandatory.

Introducing Univer MCP – AI-Native Spreadsheets for Everyone

Hey r/opensource! 👋

I wanted to share Univer MCP, a tool that lets you drive Univer Spreadsheets using natural language. Basically, it brings AI directly into spreadsheets, so you can automate, analyze, and manipulate data more intuitively.

Who can use it?
Any app that uses Univer Spreadsheets can integrate with Univer MCP and leverage AI to enhance spreadsheet functionality.

Would love to hear your thoughts—how do you see AI transforming spreadsheet workflows in open-source projects?

Embedded device, Qt6 vs Qt5

Hi everyone,

I am working on an embedded product using Yocto that launches a Qt Application at startup.

I am trying to make sure we comply with open source licenses correctly, but I am a bit confused about the implications. Here is the situation:

* The application uses **Qt6**.
* It also uses **Qt Virtual Keyboard**, which I understand is **GPLv3 only**.
* The rest of the Qt6 components we use are under **LGPLv3**.

From what I understand:

1. Since Qt Virtual Keyboard is GPLv3, **the whole application must be GPLv3**, which means we would need to make the source code of the app publicly available.
2. Because Qt6 is LGPLv3, we must allow the end user to **replace the Qt libraries** with modified versions. But do we need to provide documentation or noscripts for rebuilding the Yocto image, or is it sufficient to just not prevent the replacement technically (firmware signing, hardware locks...) ?
3. If we used Qt5 instead, the LGPLv2.1 modules would **not require the ability to replace Qt**, so simply publishing the application source code would be sufficient, is that correct?

I’d really appreciate clarification from anyone with experience in embedded Qt products.

I want to make sure we comply without overcomplicating things for users.

Thanks in advance!

Finally my extension just got published on both chrome and firefox

Recently I worked on building extension for both chrome and firefox, inspired from my earlier project, react-scribble-pad, that was published as a complete npm package.

Scribble pad is a simple yet a sleek and powerful tool that lets you draw, sketch, make notes or use It as a whiteboard on top of any website.


Try it out:

I built an open-source P2P tool to solve my own privacy frustrations. Could I get your feedback?

Hey r/opensource,

I'm a long-time C++ dev and I just finished my first solo full-stack project, born out of my own frustration.

I was tired of the privacy risks of sending files and text snippets between my phone and PC. So, using my spare time, I taught myself full-stack development and built a solution called PrivyDrop.

It's a free, open-source tool that uses a direct P2P (WebRTC) connection to share files and text. It's fully end-to-end encrypted, and your data never touches a central server. Think of it as a secure, private clipboard.

I'm deliberately not including links here to avoid the spam filter. The project is still in a very early stage, and what I need most right now is honest feedback from fellow developers.

Does this sound like something you would use?
What are the first things that come to mind that I should improve or add?

I'd be happy to share the GitHub and live app links in the comments if anyone is interested in trying it out or reviewing the code. The repo is on GitHub under david-bai00/PrivyDrop if you want to search for it.

Thanks for your time!
