    I've switched browsers a few times (generally between Firefox and Chrom[e/ium]) and have never been satisfied with the experience of transferring bookmarks. I've also really gotten into the terminal a lot more over the last year or two. These feelings pushed me to look for an alternative, at which point I discovered Buku. It's, you guessed it, a command-line bookmark manager!

    After using it for a bit I started to miss having easy point-and-click access to my bookmarks in the browser. I went over to the repo's issues, asked for it, and the author got back to me letting me know that it was on the todo list for someone from the community to implement. Well, I thought, I'm a web developer and I've made a web extension before... why not!?

    So I made Bukubrow! It allows you to view, create, edit, and delete bookmarks in the Buku database from the browser. It primarily uses TypeScript and Rust under the hood.

    I'd urge you all to check Buku and Bukubrow out! :-)

    I make a suite of web apps that work offline, have no ads, are fully open source, and work entirely inside your browser. And there are more coming soon! https://apps.nektro.net/

      It requires to run script from rawgit, otherwise the app icons don't even show in the list.

    I have been working with Pony a lot lately, and I got the basis for a Win32 wrapper built about a month back. Since then I took a break from it and have been trying, unsuccessfully, to create some Pony bindings for CEF. I have initialization working, but the browser keeps crashing on startup, and I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.

    Anyway, I have been spending a lot of time thinking about GUIs lately and would really like to implement a cross-platform library of some kind. If anyone has similar interests, or a related project, then I'd love to hear about it!

    I'm trying to write a web-based IRC client in Java to learn more about the language (like 60% of jobs in my area are Java or .Net) and low level networking with sockets. The IRC client protocol is relatively simple and the hiccups I had I could resolve by just using Wireshark with an existing client. Still on the fence whether I should go with multithreading or non-blocking I/O (NIO).

    I'm working on some performance tests for Firefox that use Windows' built-in sampling profiler. The resulting data may be exported to a CSV file for the purpose of doing custom analyses.

    I'm working on replacing our previous analysis code, which was kind of a purpose-built one-off, with something a bit more generic. It's an abstraction layer that allows me to specify the information that I want to query in terms of attributes that are parameterized by either an event or an expression of multiple events. It is much more powerful.
