 9Most of my projects are hosted on [Sourcehut,][sourcehut] but some of my older
10projects can also be found on [NixNet's Forgejo instance.][forgejo] I do have a
11[Github account,][github] but I don't actually host any projects on it as I
12prefer more open platforms.

29    I take a lot of hand-written notes and wanted a quick way to write down web
30    references. I was unsatisfied with all of the current URL shortener
31    implementations so I decided to write my own.

35## Finished projects
36
37These are projects that I consider ["finished".][finished] I might fix the
38occasional bug, but they meet my needs as they are and I will not be adding
39major swaths of code to introduce new features.

59    The official app is just an unusable pile of trash. I want to
60    reverse-engineer the bracelet's Bluetooth protocol and implement my own
61    client/server. Client functionality will be strictly limited to
62    sending/receiving touches and matching touch patterns with user-defined
63    messages. Server functionality will be strictly limited to transferring
64    touches between devices.

75    A todo TUI that operates on basic text files. Unfinished items are denoted
76    with a - and finished items are denoted with a +. I wanted to try
77    <a href="https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea">Bubble Tea</a> but
78    decided it was more complicated than I was ready for at the time.
