Ask HN: Anyone making a living building desktop applications?
I tried to make 2 different desktop apps in 2021 and failed at both.
Atomic Edits[0] is a desktop app that helps YouTubers (like me) automatically remove silence in videos. It went viral on Reddit[1] but I realized later that building a video editing app with Electron (and not C++) was a bad choice. Library support video/audio editing was lacking.
Recut[2] is an app that basically does what Atomic Edits aimed to do, but actually succeeded. I think it's because it was a native Mac app which meant it had access to better libraries for editing videos. (That or I gave up too early on Atomic Edits.)
Orbital[3] is desktop app that allows you to search, filter, preview video files on your computer like YouTube. I posted on some subreddits and it had potential but I realized it wouldn't be enough to sustain me. It could've worked as a side-project but being as my main source of income was from YouTube ad-revenue, it wasn't worth it.
VideoHubApp[4] is a desktop app that does what Orbital aimed to do and actually earned a couple thousand dollars. It was started a few years earlier and was built with a similar tech stack.
All that is to say, I made desktop apps that had potential, but I did not have the time to spend making them feature complete.

After quitting my job and going full-time on YouTube, I started accumulating a ton of media files. So I made an app to search, filter, and preview them.
As for the project, it’s open source - meaning the code is available for all to see, update, and report issues on GitHub (https://github.com/SuboptimalEng/Orbital).

Ask HN: What is the most pleasant, uncomplicated full stack to start with?
I have built Web front-ends (React or Svelte) with Go-backend. Embed in a web-view to make it a native desktop app, or get funky and give it native chrome/menus etc. [Wails](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails) is a good candidate to start if you want to cut on boiler plate.

Task runner like go-task/task, but in pure Go, no external DSLs
Is that what wails is doing here? (On mobile)

Game Server Development: How do you structure game state for easy, efficient, and configurable access?
In a "local" environment, where an executable can be provided to someone with the entire game contents. In this case, the game won't use WebSockets, and will instead use a Go/JS bridge (something like Wails) to connect.
