rolandpeelen··on I tried every todo app and ended up with a .txt file
I had the same problem and then built https://crom.ai/

—> htts://app.crom.ai/register

Side project - so don’t really actively market it, but it’s been my daily driver for over a year now

rolandpeelen··on Ditching Obsidian and building my own
I started doing some stuff myself as well. Still very much in-progress, but I felt that obsidian was a way bigger hammer than I needed, yet still I found edges that didn't cover my workflow

Ended up building: https://crom.ai/

Here is a little write-up / more details on how it's built: https://notes.rolandpeelen.com/notes-on-building-crom

rolandpeelen··on Ask HN: Those making $500/month on side projects in 2024 – Show and tell
Ballpark is around 2k for the boat ones - give we have some cad models to work with. Depending on the complexity of the scene and options we usually have something online within a month after signing off

We so have pricing https://konfig.xyz/pricing (perhaps I need to make it more visible). There is some upfront cost in the modeling, but we don’t really make / want to make money there. So everything essentially goes to the 3d party. We’ve partnered with a great company in the Ukraine but you can always also do it yourself

We have some basic docs at docs.konfig.xyz - which need some love, but happy to help anyone get up and running :)

I made https://konfig.xyz/ after making about 6500 images for a product configurator. Instead of using images, we use 3d models. Initially quite simple and for use with relatively flat scenes (ie - no tree like structure for options / scenes) but grown over time to sort of support those too.

The main use case are fixed-in-size products that can be customize-able. So colours and materials, but also swapping one object for another, or turning one on or off (imagine rims on a car, or a bow thruster on a boat).

We tried saas’in it completely, but the onboarding is proving to be quite hands-on. So we’ve partnered with a 3d firm that does the 3d work so we can focus ok building software

Checking! TY
rolandpeelen··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (October 2024)
I've been working on a note-taking tool / daily todo-app: https://crom.ai/ - Currently in closed beta. It uses basic markdown and some additional custom elements to annotate data.

The idea is that you get a daily for every day, with the items ticked off on the last day removed. So a new daily every day. At the same time, there is some integration with AI to get feedback on things to break down. You can give it some instructions, focus, and also tune the amount of feedback.

I've had this in so many incarnations before, but never made it 'properly'. It's a pet project, but do want to release it at some point.

I'm adding people to the beta bit-by-bit.

rolandpeelen··on Understanding Monads. A Guide for the Perplexed (2017)
I’m afraid they aren’t as both ‘map’ and ‘flatmap’ are defined as a single function; ‘then’ (so it won’t hold true to the monad laws).
