  • 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
  • manyverse

    A social network off the grid (real repo at https://gitlab.com/staltz/manyverse)

  • I really look forward to interfaces that let me use my own index of data from my network.

    Manyverse[1] and Iris[2] are good examples of apps that will enable this more in the future.

    I just want to search “harry potter” and see everything my friends have written about it. If I follow some institutions or encyclopedias, I should also see what they write about it. And I should be able to choose which sources I want to rank higher in search results.

  • SurveyJS

    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.

  • chrome-private

    Isolated, optionally ephemeral profiles for Google Chrome

  • I wrote this [1] to create disposable profiles for browsing, cleanly instantiated from pre-configured (with optional extensions) "root" profiles.

    It's also convenient when researching a particular topic, as I can keep a dedicated browser instance self-contained in its own directory for each topic, for as long as I need it.
