Mockaton. A mock server for developing and testing frontends.

The mock files follow a specific file name convention similar to the URL paths.

For example, the following file will be served for:

/api/user/1234

my-mocks-dir/api/user/[user-id].GET.200.json

Not exactly built but I wrote a post about Diablo II item generation^0.

I did add some features to the blog for the interactive part though.

This was my most invested post yet by far and I'm very glad I managed to finish and release it.

Turn to do lists into quests. It was for a hackathon so it's not quite polished, but I've been using it as my to do list. Also I loved making the demo video as much as the app itself.

We're a french company who designed a repairable and fireproof e-bike battery, which is more sustainable (up to 60% CO2 emission reductions compared to a buy-and-throw-away battery)

We've gone from design to production and crowdfunding and the journey so far has been a blast!

Here if some of you are interested and want to get it for their e-bike (compatible with 90% of bikes on the market): https://www.gouach.com

Not just me, but our team is building: https://github.com/swirlai/swirl-search

We are trying to build an AI metasearch engine that does RAG and Chat based on your office documents. Without any ETL or a vector database.

I spent the last 18 months working on BoltAI.com. It’s a native AI chat client for Mac.

I didn’t have experience with Swift and Swift UI before building it. I spent most of the time asking ChatGPT to teach me SwiftUI.

It generates enough revenue for me to work on it full time.

Nothing. I'm not proud of anything from this year. A lot of the stuff is still half built due to time constraints.
