  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App

  • qr-designer

    QR designer web app with a novel method of designing qr codes that does not take advantage of error correction

  • I went ahead and got most of your requests in - except for the image uploading, but you can now edit the url and it can be 25 characters or less [0]. The rest will be padded with spaces but browsers seem to handle that fine based on my 3 minutes of testing

  • markwhen

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

  • https://markwhen.com - very cool. however, If I could share with you, I would see the value in following case: if I could connect my calendar(s) to it and see what is going on and overlay it with the data here in comment. Use case is both - for retrospective and for planning (for example if you're preparing the meeting and don't want to share content just yet, or jotting something for time in-between meeting what to do, etc)

  • qr-kit

    QR Codes on the edge! A straightforward solution for generating QR codes to be used in websites, emails, and more.

  • This is really good, I wish I saw it before I built something similar. Mine is server-side rendered at the edge. It allows any value but still has no where near the functionality as yours. https://github.com/jmcmullen/qr-kit

  • YOURLS

    🔗 The de facto standard self hosted URL shortener in PHP

  • Monaco Editor

    A browser based code editor

  • Codemirror & vue. Chances are if you're using a code editor in a web app it's either Microsoft's Monaco [0] or CodeMirror [1], which is maintained by Marijn Haverbeke
