[Showcase] PromptVault - A Python App for Managing your AI Prompts

Hey r/opensource!

I'm super excited to share a project I've been passionately working on over the past weeks: **PromptVault**! This is my first significant open-source application, and I'm really proud to share it with you all.

**What is PromptVault?**

PromptVault is a desktop application designed to help you easily organize, store, and retrieve your prompts for various AI applications, software development, content marketing, and much more. Think of it as a personal library for all your AI prompts, allowing you to centralize them and boost your productivity.

**Key features**

* **Fully local:** the app stores and manages data from .JSON stored on your computer.
* **Intuitive interface**: Built with PyQt6 for a smooth user experience. It is quite simple for now and not 100% polished, but it's in an MVP state.
* **Robust version control:** Every prompt has a Git-like version history with unique SHA-256 hashes, detailed metadata (timestamp, author, commit message), diff visualization, and the ability to revert to previous versions.
* **Tagging & categorization:** Easily organize your prompts with custom tags and categories for quick retrieval.
* **Export functionality:** Export your prompts for backup or sharing.
* **100% free and open source, forever:** MIT License over here! The goal is to share, collaborate and learn with other developers. I'm deeply committed to the open-source ethos. I hope it will help people manage their prompts, as it has helped me so far.

**Where to find it:** You can find PromptVault on **Codeberg**, not GitHub. I chose Codeberg because I believe in supporting federated and ethical open-source platforms.

* **Project link:** [https://codeberg.org/medenor/promptvault](https://codeberg.org/medenor/promptvault)

**How you can help:** This is a community project, and I'm eager for feedback and contributions!

* **Pull requests and suggestions are warmly welcomed!** Whether it's a bug fix, a new feature idea, or even just a suggestion on how to improve the code (especially given my novice status!), please don't hesitate to open an issue or a pull request.
* Check out the [`CONTRIBUTING.md`](https://codeberg.org/medenor/promptvault/src/branch/main/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md) for more details on how to get involved.

**A little about my journey**

I'm relatively new to programming, having only grasped the fundamentals of Python in my early years. This entire project has been a massive learning curve, and I've poured a lot of "vibe-coded" energy into it, learning as I went along. I like this way of working, it's more creativity-centered, it allows me to create things even though I'm not a pro. And I have to say that it's been an adventure so far! See for yourself with my other repositories 😀

I'm really looking forward to hearing your thoughts and seeing how PromptVault can grow with the community's help.

Thanks for checking it out!

Tired of Note taking app BS. Meet WebNotes

Note-taking is simple. The apps are not.

So I built WebNotes: a fast, open-source notes app inspired by Apple Notes' sleekness & Excalidraw's speed.

No bloat. No complex setup. Just open a tab and write.

P.s. first project which I started work on about two weeks ago

🚀 We’re building func(Kode): A community for open-source side projects

Hey folks 👋

I’m a developer who spends most of my free time building side projects and experimenting with open-source ideas. One thing I noticed is that while GitHub is amazing for collaboration and hosting, there isn’t really a dedicated community where projects get visibility, feedback, and recognition beyond stars.

So I started func(kode) — a developer-first community where:

You can submit your side projects and get them discovered
Other developers can contribute, fork, and collaborate
We maintain docs & contribution guides for first-time contributors
We host a Discord space for discussions, project showcases, and badges for early builders

It’s still early (we just launched a canary release 🔥), but the goal is simple: help developers grow by sharing and improving each other’s projects, not just code-dumping.

👉 Repo link: https://github.com/func-Kode/site.git

Would love to hear from you:

What would you want in a dev community like this?
How do you usually discover cool projects besides GitHub trending?

This is early-stage, so all feedback, criticism, and ideas are super welcome 🙌

I love opensource I wish I could support all the creators and I have an idea!

Open source has honestly saved me countless hours headaches and money too. Recently I’ve been relying on so much open source stuff and I keep thinking about how these devs ask for the smallest thing in return like a coffee donation or a star on GitHub or even just a repost. And I feel guilty because I want to give back to all of them but if I start donating to every single project that’s helped me it adds up really quick and then I don’t even know who deserves more or less.

So what if we make an open source creator fund. And in true open source spirit it’s managed by the people. Everyone can donate into one big pot either one time or monthly and then the community votes on which creators or projects should get the support that month. We could have something like a leaderboard for creator of the week or month and they get a payout from the pool. That way active developers and even smaller projects can rise up get some recognition and at least a bit of financial motivation to keep going. It’s a way of collectively paying back the people who keep giving us tools fixes apps libraries and more for free.

I just really like the idea of helping devs who have helped me especially the smaller projects that don’t get much attention. Something like this could keep them alive and motivated instead of fading away. I’d honestly love to be part of it even just helping run it or modding or whatever it takes.

Of course this sort of thing could be misused but that’s why it should be run by trusted people in the community. If someone bigger in the open source scene picked this up I think a lot of us would feel more confident donating into it. If anyone has the resources to make this happen please go for it and count me in.

PS. if something like this already exists my bad drop it in the comments and I’ll support it straight away.

Edit - if this idea ever actually turns into something and goes wrong don’t blame me that’s open source terms baby.

Edit 2 - I have seen the open source initiatives but they are more for bigger companies and bigger budgets and bigger funds I'm talking more small vote driven so different creators and more creators have access to the fund every day and fund their projects and propose ideas which require money and get funded by the people for it. For the people by the people typa initiative. Very community driven.

TLDR - An open source project/fund that would help developers do developing!

First OpenSource attempt : *** Open-ADR *** [NO AI PROJECT]

***DISCLAIMER: NO AI PROJECT***

I’m an SRE and built (let be honest, I fully vibe code...) [Open-ADR](https://openadr.dev) — a minimal tool to browse Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) across your GitHub repos.

Right now it’s super simple:

* Detects ADRs (docs/adr/, docs/decisions/, /adr)
* Shows status + renders markdown (works with [MADR](https://github.com/adr/madr))
* Read-only via GitHub OAuth (no DB, no token leaks)

The idea is to go further with ongoing ADRs: create them from the UI, collaborate via UI using PRs comment as database, supersede, and eventually have org-wide dashboards.

⚠️ This is very experimental — I want to validate if it even makes sense to move forward. Would your team actually use this? What features would make it valuable?

💡 Curious:

* Do you actually keep ADRs alive in your org?
* Would a multi-repo dashboard help you?

When does it make sense to use a source available license?

I am making a front end package. It’s designed to be easily self hosted. It’s pretty complex I would say it’s taken me anywhere from 1-2000 hours to build. The main business modal I am going for is to charge companies to use it while leaving it free for non-commercial use. As such open source is not really an option.

So I have two choices, keep the code close source or make it source available. I am thinking to make it source available on github as it would help with getting the word out far easier than closed source. Making adoption faster. But the con would be my code is now out in the wild, which is tough for me to swallow at this stage considering the time it took to develop it.

I would appreciate some more advice on this topic.

I want to start my own organisation and need help with names

I'll first just brief my idea and then I'll put the names. Please suggest which of the names sounds the best.

I want to build an organisation that builds workflow automation tools. Two expansion ideas I have are adding teaching courses and expanding to other forms of software solutions.

I had originally thought of the name Bare Metal. However, I don't want to add any english terms. I believe it would be better to just go with hindi termed naming (for the brand and the products).

To begin, currently, I am purely thinking about working in the open source environment to gain some attraction towards myself (& no monetization) and hence I don't want any intense naming.

These are my name ideas as of now

- Kalpniyat -> Kalpana + niyatam. Imagination + deterministic.
- Netrana -> Netra + prana. Vision + source of life.
- Dhatu -> Element.
- Vigyaan -> Science.

The first two are fused names, which is my primary instinct, combining words. The next two are just direct hindi terms.

Views.

Droplr equivalent

I've used Droplr for well over a decade at this point .

Not sure when but it was bought at some point and the quality definitely went down hill. I bought a multi year license at some point that expired a while ago but still had access to the product so I put up with the numerous bugs.

It seems they've found it's been a while since I last paid and they're looking to charge me.

There must be an OSS equivalent or at least the screen recorder portion I could then hook up to my own API to produce shareable links.
