Ask HN: Side project of less than $2k MRR, what's your project?

• markwhen

  35 3,329 5.4 HTML

  Make a cascading timeline from markdown-like text. Supports simple American/European date styles, ISO8601, images, links, locations, and more.

  

https://markwhen.com

Timelines in markdown (gantt, calendar, map, other views)

It's open source (https://github.com/mark-when/markwhen) and there are some paid options for storing markwhen documents in the cloud.

Straddling paid SAAS and open source is a bit tricky and I still haven't figured it out completely yet. I have some sponsors as well as some paid saas clients but it's not quite paying the bills yet... I like working on it though, hopefully I can find the right balance or a different revenue model that works better.

• OnlineOrNot

  5 24 5.5 TypeScript

  The CLI for OnlineOrNot

  

Personally, I built OnlineOrNot (https://onlineornot.com/) - it's a set of uptime monitoring tools, with a hosted status page.

There's an open source CLI (https://github.com/onlineornot/onlineornot), and a public API under active development.

• SurveyJS

  surveyjs.io sponsored

  Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  

• -glish

  3 8 4.6 JavaScript

  Translate random common words within your webpages to a language of your choice. Learn foreign vocab in the context of an English sentence. Choose the language and the quantity of turned words, as you get more familiar with the vocab lists.

• foldie

  3 23 5.1 Dart

  Transfer files between Android and MacOS

Foldie to transfer files between Android and MacOS: https://github.com/FLopriore/foldie

It's a small project in Flutter I showed on HN few days ago. It's basically an alternative to Android File Transfer, but with a better UI and without the limitation of 1.5 GB files because it uses adb under the hood. MRR: €0 and it will always be this amount of money :)

• firestarter

  5 28 6.2 TypeScript

  A starter kit for quickly building your next app. Side project or startup! (by mcapodici)

Building a SaaS and web app starter kit https://github.com/mcapodici/firestarter using NextJS, Firebase and Tailwind

Working on a ChatGPT tutorial now for it:

• chart-study

  10 12 2.8 Svelte

  The Chart Study tool, by base.report, is a web-based application for analyzing stock charts.

  

I'm working on https://base.report, a web app to help retail investors and (primarily swing) traders to research the stock market effectively.

As someone who got interested in the stock market a few years ago, I didn't find anything that suited my needs in terms of features and design. So I developed a solution tailored to my requirements and eventually opened it up for others as well.

The key features include a stock screener with technical indicators like 50-day range, and a report view for each stock including charts and key financials.

I still use the app almost daily to aid my own stock market research. We currently have a few dozen active users.
