I design parts for 3D printing and work, and I didn't like the options: Onshape is cloud-only and makes free-plan designs public, Fusion's free licence keeps shrinking, SolidWorks doesn't run on Mac or Linux at all, and FreeCAD never clicked for me. So I built FreeShape, a parametric CAD that works like Onshape but runs entirely on your own computer, with your designs as plain files on your own disk.

What it does:

- Constraint-based sketches, then extrude, revolve, fillet, holes, patterns and so on. Change a number and the part rebuilds

- Assemblies with mates (hinges, sliders and so on)

- 2D drawings with dimensions, exported to PDF or AutoCAD DXF

- Sheet metal with flat patterns for laser cutting

- STEP and STL import/export

It runs natively on all three platforms: a Windows installer, a Mac app (Apple Silicon) and a Linux AppImage. The Mac version is new and built and tested automatically on GitHub's Macs, but it hasn't had many real-world users yet, so Mac feedback would be especially welcome.

Why open source matters here: the files are plain JSON with STEP/DXF export, so your designs are never locked in, and if I ever stop working on it anyone can pick it up. It's GPL v3, built on OpenCascade (the same geometry kernel FreeCAD uses) with Python and Qt.

It's early, so expect bugs, and I built it with a lot of help from Claude (AI). Issues and pull requests are very welcome.

Clipto https://github.com/clipto-pro is the best clipboard manager I’ve ever used. I really hope this project can be revived and further developed.

Clipto had many useful features, including converting notes to Markdown, merging notes, cross-device synchronization, and many other features that made it a very powerful and convenient application.

The Clipto GitHub repositories appear to have been inactive for quite some time, and the project as a whole seems to have been abandoned.

I think the project still has significant potential and would be useful to bring back to active development.

I hope some developers might be interested in reviving this project and continuing its development.

Hi everyone,

Ever since upgrading from a physical songbook to a digital one, I've been frustrated by not finding the right software to organize my song collection: the ones that worked good had outdated UX/UI, while the more modern ones didn't support all my devices, or had limits while charging subscriptions to get past them. So I've created Campfire, a completely free, open-source setlist and songbook manager built around the ChordPro standard.

My goal was to design a tool specifically for stage reliability with fast navigation, and full user ownership of their song libraries.

Not to waste your time, let me highlight the features that I think are the most useful / unique:

• Automatic ChordPro conversion of pasted text, Word documents, PDF files, etc. If you copy a chord sheet with chords over the lyrics, Campfire will transform it to ChordPro.
• Scale recommendations per section: a lot of work went into this, and this feature actually helped me move out of the mindset where I just play the pentatonic scale over everything.
• Tab transposition and custom tuning support - of course, with the technical limitations of the format, but if you have a tab section in your ChordPro file, Campfire will try to transpose it together with the  chords in the rest of the song, while also taking into consideration the tuning of your instrument.
• A smart layout that always tries to arrange the song the best way on the screen, based on the font size. It's also dynamic: sections can be folded on the go.

Besides these, I've spent a lot of time creating the stable foundation that you might expect from such an app (an editor with live preview, custom tags for organizing, search / sort / filter, setlist support, paging pedal support, real-time sync across your devices using your own Dropbox account, sharing songs / setlists as links, PDF export), while also adding some useful tools such as a tuner and a metronome (both are integrated into the song viewer: the metronome automatically picks up the song's tempo based on the ChordPro metadata).

Campfire is cross-platform with versions available for Android, iOS / iPadOS, macOS, Windows, Linux as well as a web app, all usable offline. It's 100% free: no ads, no tracking, no paywalled features.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

I know there's not a day without another music player app built on Navidrome or a direct competitor. One thing I still see as mostly ignored is the jukebox mode.

I always loved the concept of a separate box that plays the music without any other app hijacking the Bluetooth or AirDrop audio. I used to have Sonos speakers (the app experience turned terrible) and the Audioengine B-Fi (discontinued and abandoned). Add to that the growing frustration with streaming providers, and self-hosting became my main focus.

I tried the UPnP protocol with different iOS apps, but half didn't work properly and the other half was incredibly annoying UX-wise. So I decided to build my own remote control for Navidrome's jukebox mode.

This is how juuku was born. It's a small container running next to my Navidrome, providing a web app that works on mobile and desktop, either as a PWA or in the browser.

I thought maybe a few other people in the same situation could use it, so the whole thing is open source under the MIT licence.

I'm actively developing it and pushing updates as I use it daily.

Any feedback is welcome. And if you enjoy it, please let me know. If not… well… let me know.

AI disclaimer: vibe-coded but not hype-coded. I made it with AI assistance (DeepSeek v4.1) to make development faster and smoother, but all decisions are mine. I spent countless hours on QA and building it, and no regrets. Also, I'm a design engineer with 20+ years of experience.

I watch most of my stuff through Real-Debrid, and the part that always wore me down was the clicking. Find the show, pick a stream, play one episode, then go back and do it again for the next one. So I built a small IINA plugin to cut that out.

It's called ContentPlay. You search a movie or series, it grabs instant cached streams from Torrentio using your own Real-Debrid account, and opens the whole season as a playlist in IINA. The next episode just plays. It also sets a sensible audio and subtitle track, and it skips the 3D and 4K-HDR rips that tend to look wrong on a normal screen. If it does pick a bad file, you can switch to a different stream from a menu without losing your place.

It's really for people who already pay for Real-Debrid and would rather watch in IINA than in a browser or some heavier media-server setup. macOS only, since that's where IINA runs.

This is honestly my first plugin and the first thing I've ever put on GitHub, and I built a lot of it with Claude, which made the whole thing far less scary. So go easy on me. You'll need IINA 1.4+ and your own Real-Debrid token.

It's open source and I'd genuinely love the help, so contributions, improvements, or just your first impressions are all welcome. And if you try it and something breaks, please tell me.

Hey everyone, I've been working on FrameFX, a free and open-source tool designed to boost FPS in games.

I've had trouble with 6GB of VRAM in the past, especially since I play some insanely GPU-heavy games, so I wanted to make something that could help with performance.

It's called Universal FrameFX, and it's completely free and open-source. If you want to check it out, here's the website:

https://chopstickshq.com/universal-framefx

The source code is here too:

Gostman is an API client (REST, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, MCP) with no sign-in, no cloud sync and no telemetry that I've added. I got tired of clients that want an account before you can send a GET request.

The request engine is plain Go and the same one runs in the desktop app, the browser version, and the CLI. Collections can be stored as YAML in a folder, so they live in git next to your code.

Repo: https://github.com/kunalgoesbyken/gostman

Browser version: https://gostman.com/web

I'd like to hear what a contributor would want to see in the repo before sending a PR.

Hey! So I’ve been working on a Windows dictation app called x-talk. It’s been useful for me, so I figured I’d share it.

The basic idea is to press a shortcut, talk through a thought, and paste the transcript. You can optionally run a cleanup step with prompts you control. The original transcript and audio stay available, so you can go back and check what you actually said.

It also has recording history, audio import, and a few choices of transcription and cleanup providers.

The app is Apache-2.0 licensed. It uses external services with your own API keys, so those providers charge for usage and receive the audio or text needed to process it. There’s no offline transcription.

Windows installer: https://github.com/alexander-north/x-talk/releases/latest

One heads-up: the installer isn’t publisher-signed yet.

Happy to answer questions or hear suggestions if you try it.

OBS: Toda a aparência e novo visual, foi vibecodado e testado. Ainda tô trabalhando nisso, o repositório é privado, fiz como projeto pessoal. :D

Prior, I used VOX to listen to audio on MacOS. I wanted the ability to listen to all my locally-stored music but store it into playlists that can be played sequentially, randomly, looped (entire playlist), or looped singular audio. I would prefer the interface be simple and allow me to jump straight to music.

I've recently started using Linux, and with that I want to move to using another application that has these functions if at all possible. I don't mind more, but the above are my basic requirements. I care less about online streaming, more about local good quality playing.

Also, if there's a good thing that can edit metadata of audio (adding albums, artists, etc.) like Apple Music does, I'd like that as well (whether separate or as part of the aforementioned music app)

CapScroll is an open-source Linux desktop app for capturing scrolling content.

I've released CapScroll v1.3.0, with a refactor of its Wayland capture pipeline. the change is replacing desktop-specific screenshot utilities with XDG Desktop Portal integration through D-Bus.

what's new:

• migration to XDG Desktop Portals
• no need of manual scrolling on wayland
• RemoteDesktop portal support for automated scrolling input

i know neocities is one option , but its kinda code intensive..them drag and drops good tho , so a free website builder with both drag and drop and code-able features would be lit asf !

is there any good free alternatives though ?

Hi ,

I'd like to share Aqueli, a personal organiser for Windows 11, released under the GPL-3.0-or-later.

It covers tasks, calendar, notes, a journal, habits, projects, contacts, documents, goals and a budget, all in one app. It was designed from the start to respect the people using it:

- No account, no server and no telemetry. The app never connects to the internet.
- Your data stays on your PC, encrypted with your password (SQLCipher, AES-256).
- Everything can be exported to open formats (CSV, iCalendar, vCard, Markdown) and imported back, so you're never locked in.
- No ads, no paid version and no feature held back.

It's available in 17 languages. Many translations would benefit from a native speaker's eye, so corrections are very welcome, as are bug reports and ideas.

Hi everyone, I’m the developer of Deskset. It’s a native macOS app that lets you put customizable widgets on your desktop and run Rainmeter skins.

You can load .ini skins and install .rmskin packages. It also comes with its own collection of widgets, including clocks, calendars, weather, system monitors, music controls, and audio visualizers. There’s a built-in editor with a live preview if you want to tweak a skin or make your own.

Deskset is completely free to use and open source under GPLv3. It runs on macOS 13 or later, with downloads for both Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

It’s an independent project, not an official Rainmeter release. Compatibility still has limits: skins that depend on Windows-only DLL plugins or Windows programs can have missing features, and fonts may look a little different on a Mac.

If you try it with a favorite Rainmeter skin, I’d like to hear how it goes, especially if something doesn’t work as expected. Bug reports and contributions are welcome.

I needed to send one page of a personal PDF to my local administration. The quick options were either uploading it to some random "split PDF" site or writing a throwaway PyPDF script. I went with the script, but it bugged me that there wasn't a faster local way to do this kind of thing.

Mac has Tangerine, where you hold Shift while dragging a file and a radial menu of formats appears under the cursor. I couldn't find anything like it on Linux, so I built it.

What it does: drag a file from anywhere (file manager, browser, Electron apps), hold a key, drop it on a slice of the wheel.

Shift: convert (297 conversions across images, audio, video, PDF, docs, ebooks, slides, spreadsheets, subtitles, archives)

Alt: tools (compress, crop, trim, split, merge, extract PDF pages, etc.)

Ctrl: actions (copy, move, copy path, open terminal, etc.)

Everything runs locally using ffmpeg, pandoc, PyMuPDF, Pillow and LibreOffice (optional). There's also a CLI if you'd rather script it, e.g. metamorph to webp photo.heic.

How the drag detection works, since that was the interesting part: the dragging app holds the pointer grab, so you can't just listen for mouse events. But every X11 app that drags files uses XDND and takes ownership of XdndSelection when the drag starts. Metamorph watches that ownership change through XFixes, checks the held modifiers, and opens the wheel. The wheel is itself an XDND drop target, so it reads the file list as the pointer moves over it and only shows options that make sense for that file type.

Limitations:

The drag wheel needs X11. On Wayland you can use a drop zone, the Files script (F4), or the CLI.

PDF to DOCX/XLSX is heuristic like any PDF converter, and there's no OCR.

It's Python + GTK3, tested mostly on Ubuntu 24.04.

It's MIT licensed. Feedback is very welcome, especially bug reports from other distros and desktop environments, and ideas on how to approach Wayland properly.

i'm a college student (naman) and i built kimo - a free, open-source (mit) video editor with no gui that's meant to be driven by an agent. the agent edits by calling tools (cut, trim, keyframes, titles/captions, colour, audio, export, etc.) and can render a single frame to visually check its own work before going further.

it's one ~15 mb cpu-only rust binary, no gpu, runs on a 2 gb box. the whole thing is free and i'm publishing it under the mit licence.

honestly it's still pretty rough in places and i'm only one person putting it together, so i'd really appreciate people trying it and telling me what breaks or what's missing. if you run an editor or an agent workflow and want something you can drop onto a small server and drive over mcp, i'd love your feedback.

A PC can sit in the same nearby Bluetooth chat as the phones. Unzip it and run it. No account and no installer.

The Windows build is unsigned, so SmartScreen will warn you. Check the hash on the release, then open it.

Tasket++ lets you define your own clicks, keystrokes, cursor positions and system operations, then replay them exactly when you want. It’s a simple Windows tool that handles repetitive workflows for you: auto‑send messages, paste text anywhere, take silent screenshots, launch or close apps, adjust volume or run your end‑of‑day shutdown sequence.

Everything runs locally, with no telemetry, no cloud, and no complexity.

What it can do:
- Replay user‑defined cursor positions and keystrokes
- Paste predefined text anywhere
- Perform system actions: open files/programs, change volume, take silent screenshots, shut down, files/folders operations
- Schedule tasks at a specific time, at startup, or run via desktop shortcut
- Run tasks once, in loops, or indefinitely
- Discreet mode: runs quietly from the tray
- Use command line to autorun a task : Tasket++.exe "TaskName" <delayInSeconds (>0)> <NumberOfLoop (-1 for infinite)>
- Easily share tasks between different PC : export/import task files and program data, use feature to rescale cursor positions

Local, portable, free, open source. Privacy intact.

Nothing is vibe coded, I never used AI (except for the choice of UI colors suggested by Copilot).
Conception is genuine, I didn't know about similar tools when I began developing it.

I'm looking for testers or quick feedback (beyond its visual aspect), please give a try and comment here :)

solo dev, this is my first post here. it's a sandbox where small tribes start in the stone age and drift apart over time. each one ends up with its own words, customs and beliefs, and if nobody interferes it can go all the way through 45 eras up to computers. you mostly watch and nudge things.

the sim is rust compiled to webassembly and runs locally in your browser, no install and no account. ui is react, and there's an electron build too. whole repo is MIT, and issues and prs are open.
