What programming/technical projects have you been working on?
This is a recurring post to discuss programming or other technical projects that we've been working on. Tell us about one of your recent projects, either at work or personal projects. What's interesting about it? Are you having trouble with anything?
I've moved on from developing my self hostable personal library catalog (for now) and started a react portfolio website, I tried it once before but got stuck somewhere, and after working on the catalog application I figured I should circle back and try to learn react again, and it's going well!
Although I just deployed to my Linux web server and it's live on the web, it didn't go 100% and right now I'm troubleshooting the blogs backend component. I'll figure it out though.
My diskprices-on-eBay site was fairly successful (made $80 over the last 30 days!)--there's still a bit of maintenance work to be done to continue to improve it but I'm also thinking of what to do next. Some things that passed through my mind were iPad covers / charging cables (actually, these were the wife's ideas--a site that makes it easy to find compatible things), LEGO sets, luxury bags, and real estate.
There are already quite a number of websites to compare LEGO sets to insanely detailed levels (rebrickable, yottabrick, but also quite a few more!) and my wife pointed out that luxury bags have more complicated methods of appraisal and valuation.
So I'm leaning more towards the real estate idea because I'm also interested in that and I need an excuse to help me finish up a relative poverty index idea that I've been sitting on for a while--more on that next week!
