  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • todo.txt-cli

    ☑️ A simple and extensible shell script for managing your todo.txt file.

  • So basically look at the current option landscape and try to figure out what's like The Art of Computer Programming (effortlessly human-readable plaintext, todo.txt, Markdown files) and what's like Macromedia Flash (most anything where the workflow depends on proprietary programs or paid websites, closed formats, things where you can sort of export the data but it's a messy, rat's nest of JSON and you're expected to use the proprietary app to view it), and don't get invested in the Macromedia Flashes even when it's 1999 and they're really big right now.
