Luego - a minimal read-it-later iOS app

Hey folks! I've been building this read-it-later app for myself and wanted to share it here as it's open-source. https://github.com/esoxjem/Luego

You can also grab it via TestFlight and receive updates as I release them - esoxjem.github.io/Luego/

Previously, I was a big Pocket user but Mozilla decided to shut it down. I switched to Omnivore but that seems to be shutting down as well. I don't feel like paying monthly, so I decided to "home-cook" it, inspired by Robin Sloan.

As everything is happening on device, the best things to read are blog posts and websites that have clean and simple HTMLs - not news sites and others that do a lot of crap.

I'm using it regularly to read and hope you will find it useful too.

Cheers!

We got tired of rogue AI agents, so we built Idun, an open source platform for agents governance ⭐️

Hey everyone!

We are four friends, all working in the industry, we kept hitting the same wall:
cool AI agents but zero real governance.

So we built **Idun** **Agent** **Platform**, an open-source control plane to govern all your AI agents in one place, on your infra:

* Self-hosted (VMs / k8s / whatever cloud you trust)
* One place for **agents, environments, keys, configs**
* **Governance**: RBAC, separation of envs, audit trail
* **Observability**: see what each agent did, which tools it called, where it failed
* Model-agnostic (plug different LLM providers, including “sovereign” ones)

Check out our GitHub: [Idun Agent Platform](https://github.com/Idun-Group/idun-agent-platform)

It’s early, but already running in a few real setups, we're looking for feedbacks and just devs' testing our solution, and a few ⭐️ if we do deserve it!

Thank you so much for looking at it everyone!

Looking for tools like Base44 or Lovable that are open source.?

Hello all.

Is there an open source app builder that is using AI, something like Base44 or Lovable?

But with the same level of features?

Chrome extension to create and download gifs and clips out of youtube videos

This is an open source chrome extension that can be used to create and download GIFs and clips from Youtube videos.

Huge thanks to the creator of YoutubeExplode as it is what enables this application to exist.

Known issues:
Currently in the backend the entire video is downloaded first and then the clip is extracted as per inputs. I'm working on this problem, so that only the specific segment required will be downloaded instead of the entire video.

Repo Link: https://github.com/sagv7824/yt-gif-clip

Suggestions and feedback are welcome and appreciated! Thanks!!

TrailBase 0.22: Open, single-executable, SQLite-based Firebase alternative now with multi-DB

TrailBase is an easy to self-host, sub-millisecond, single-executable FireBase alternative. It provides type-safe REST and real-time APIs, WASM runtime, auth & admin UI. Comes with type-safe client libraries for JS/TS, Dart/Flutter, Go, Rust, .Net, Kotlin, Swift and Python. Its WASM runtime allows authoring custom endpoints and SQLite extensions in JS/TS or Rust (with .NET on the way).

Just released v0.22. Some of the highlights since last time posting here include:

Multi-DB support 🎉: record APIs can be backed by \`TABLE\`/\`VIEW\`s of independent DBs.
This can help with physical isolation and offer a path when encountering locking bottlenecks.
Filtered change subnoscriptions.
Mobile-friendly and more polished admin UI.
Kotlin client
Many more improvements, e.g.: WASM execution model & custom SQLite functions, ...

Check out the live demo, our GitHub or our website. TrailBase is only about a year young and rapidly evolving, we'd really appreciate your feedback 🙏

Is there a project that can proudly say we are good at naming things?

Most programmers say they are bad at naming things. And since naming things is hard I think they are right, but is there an open source project that can proudly say they are good at naming things? I would like to take a look at some code that has really good names in code, config, project name, etc.

Bitwave: Is This the Future-Proof Audio Format Developers Need?

# The New Audio Standard: High Fidelity and Dynamic

Bitwave is an ambitious, open-source project aiming to redefine the modern audio file format. The format is built with a robust hybrid architecture utilizing Python for the SDK/CLI and Rust for high-performance core processing. This foundation targets high-fidelity sound, multi-track support, and, crucially, developer ease-of-use, directly addressing the limitations of legacy containers in the immersive audio landscape. Bitwave positions itself as a solution for dynamic content that needs to adapt in real-time.

# Architectural Deep Dive: Spatial and Adaptive

The core .bwx format’s file structure is its true innovation. It mandates distinct blocks for metadata, including a crucial SPATIAL_BLOCK for x, y, z positional data and a META_BLOCK that stores essential information like BPM. This intrinsic inclusion of dynamic and spatial data is key to its "future-proof" claim. This design enables applications like dynamic tempo adjustment and 3D spatial audio playback without relying on external sidecar files, making the content intrinsically self-describing and ready for modern playback engines.

# CLI and SDK: A Complete Tooling Ecosystem

The project delivers a comprehensive toolkit for creators and coders. The Python SDK offers seamless data manipulation via NumPy integration for programmatic workflows. Concurrently, the powerful Command Line Interface (CLI) simplifies complex tasks for power users, supporting operations like analysis (BPM, spectral, fingerprinting), batch processing, format conversion (WAV, FLAC, OGG), and advanced audio effects (reverb, pitch shift). Bitwave is not just a container; it's a complete, modern audio processing pipeline, licensed under MIT and ready for community adoption and contribution.

Simple Web CSVx Editor

For simple spreadsheet operations, I've always considered a simple Excel-style application. Last night, I created a simple web-based CSVX editor-viewer using "vibe coding."

It's possible to prevent libraries like Pandas from reading comments, so using them in these situations wouldn't be harmful, but unfortunately, MS Office or LibreOffice don't have native support for this, making it difficult to add.

Defending against runtime attacks what works?

Runtime threats app-layer, supply chain, and identity often evade standard security measures.

Here’s a blog that explains these attack vectors in a simple way: link

What strategies do you use to detect or prevent runtime attacks?

Open-sourced a production-ready Reddit scraping suite with analytics and dashboard

I’ve released an open-source Reddit scraping suite designed as a full data collection and analysis pipeline.

The project scrapes Reddit content without API keys by using open JSON endpoints exposed by `old.reddit.com` and several Redlib/Libreddit mirrors. It includes rate limiting, failover handling, and pagination for stability.

Features include structured SQLite storage, CSV/Excel export, media downloads, recursive comment parsing, lightweight sentiment analysis, a Streamlit analytics dashboard, and a built-in scheduler. The entire system is Docker-ready and avoids heavy dependencies.

The goal is to provide a practical, self-hostable tool for research, monitoring, and analytics.

Idea: OSS Health Score

hey yall

just had an idea bubbling in mind: what if there was a tool that can gives OSS projects health scores as a percentage-grade, based on a variety of key, OSS metrics.


for example:

Neovim - 93% - very healthy

ahmed33033’s repo - 63% - Slow, needs support



The scores are calculated from metrics like the usual # of commits, pull requests, issues reported, but also other interesting metrics like average time between releases, security scores (from OpenSSF), percentage of new contributors, pull request creation to merge time, etc…

all of these metrics can be compiled to one score, which would tell you how vibrant the OSS project is.

this would help direct folks towards great projects they should contribute to, as well as projects that need a bit of help.


thoughts?
