Seeking feedback on my experimental js lib oem

I've been building and rebuilding a framework off and on for a couple years. I recently had an ah-hah moment and reworked things to a 2.0 version. I just posted the new version here: https://oem.js.org/. I'm curious what people think. The core idea is that it's a framework to design your own framework. It's only 300 LOC and it facilitates a particular syntax for your own framework that results in code you can understand from top to bottom.

Writingway 2: Scrivener meets AI-integration

I wrote a freeware version of sites like NovelCrafter or Sudowrite. Runs on your machine, costs zero, nothing gets saved on some obscure server, and you could even run it with a local model completely without internet access.

Of course FOSS.

Here's my blog post about it:

I built a free scanner to check if your website is i18n-ready

I realized most websites have broken or missing internationalization setups, no lang attribute, wrong hreflang, untranslated strings, etc.
So I built a free scanner that analyzes any website and gives an i18n readiness score with a few SEO insights.
It’s a small tool I made to help devs see if their site is ready for global users.

Feedback welcome especially on the checks or UI!

Need honest feedback on my AI workflow library (2 months of work, feeling stuck)

Hey everyone,

I've spent the past 2 months building a TypeScript library for creating AI workflows that process data in steps. The core idea:

Each step can process a section of data or work globally (waiting for all sections of data to be done on the global step)
Steps can depend on other steps
You define prompts, dependencies, and data transformations, steps ai model configurations
16 Hooks let you inject async integrations at any point in the workflow

My problem: I finished it, but I'm not happy with the result. It still requires too much boilerplate and infrastructure code. My original vision was something where you just configure prompts and dependencies - minimal code, maximum clarity.

I'm too close to this project now and don't have a realistic view anymore.

What I'm looking for:

Honest critique of the concept itself
Is this even solving a real problem?
If you check out the repo, what would you change?
Interested in collaborating to make this actually useful for the TS/AI community?

GitHub https://github.com/dagengine/dagengine
Homepage: https://www.dagengine.ai/ (You can check examples and documentation)

I'm genuinely open to pivoting the whole approach or scrapping it if it's not the right direction. Just want to build something people will actually use.

Open source roku alternative

This question has been asked a couple times but it's been a few years and there were never any good answers from what I've seen. I'd like to replace my roku with something with better privacy and no ads. I don't have a media library that I'm trying to host and I'm not looking to pirate, I just want something I can connect my streaming services to. It seems like it shouldn't be that difficult but I haven't found a good solution. My thought is that android can install and run apps like youtube, netflix, etc, so shouldn't there be a way to install an android distro on a raspberry pi or something and download apps onto it? Not sure if there's a project like this or if someone has looked into it. Thanks.

Building an open source AI powered DB monitoring tool

Hi folks,

I am building an open source platform to monitor all your SQL, NoSQL and KeyVal DB at a single place and it gives you insights on how you can optimize your DB.

Do you think any other OSS tool does that?

I build GitViews: a simple view counter for your GitHub profile and repos

Hello everyone!

I recently came across the GitHub Profile Views Counter project on GitHub and decided to try it, only to find out that it doesn't support separate counters for individual repositories, something I needed. As the name suggests, it's intended only for the profile README.

So, I decided to build one for myself that supports both a profile counter and per-repo counters, as well as a badge showing the sum of all repository views. It's called GitViews. It's open-source and free to use.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and any suggestions on how I can improve it!

I made a one-click macOS batch video compressor

Hey folks,



I’ve been wrestling with messy video folders for a while, so last weekend I finally sat down and built a small tool to make that a bit less painful.



It turned into this:



HandBrake Batch Compressor (HBC)

👉 https://github.com/kemalsanli/HBC



It’s a tiny macOS app (SwiftUI) that tries to make batch compression as simple as:



>pick a folder → click once → let it chew through everything



What it does:



Recursively scans a source folder (and all subfolders) for video files
Uses a command-line encoder to compress them in batch
Has a safe mode:
Writes all compressed files into a separate compressed folder that mirrors the original structure
Leaves your originals exactly as they are
Has an optional YOLO mode for people who prefer more automation:
For each file, if the new one is smaller, it replaces the original
If it’s not smaller or encoding fails, it keeps the original
So it still has some built-in safety, it’s not a blind “delete everything” switch
Includes an “Optimize Original Folder” pass for the more cautious / control-freak workflow:
You first run in safe mode and let it build a compressed folder
You can review the results there
When you’re happy, HBC can walk through that compressed folder and only replace originals when the compressed version is actually smaller
So it becomes a two-step process: first generate results, then selectively apply them back into your archive
Can write a run log into the source folder so you can see exactly what happened (size comparisons, replacements, errors…)





A few notes:



It’s fully open source and completely free – no Pro version, no paywall, no tracking
It’s not tied to any commercial product; it just leans on a CLI encoder for all the heavy lifting under the hood





I mostly built this for my own archive, but since it’s open source:



If you want to review the code,
suggest cleaner patterns / better defaults,
or add translations / improvements,





I’d really appreciate any feedback, nitpicks, or PRs.

Is there an "A-version" of MPL?

As AGPL is a version of GPL protecting from proprietary server-side modifications in the realm of project-wide copyleft, is there an equivalent in the realm of file-level copyleft licenses?
