Worth shipping, not practice

Free forever to host

290 are static builds — nothing to lapse, expire or be paused.

A brief, not a title

Why this exists

Idea lists put the work back on you — read fifty titles, guess which are worth it, talk yourself into one. This does the choosing and hands you the requirements with it.

Step 1

Spin the index

One button, 325 projects

Every project in the catalog is on screen at once. A scan races the list, slows, and stops on one — no fake drum and no result card, because the row you landed on opens exactly where it sits.

Step 2

Read the brief

Features, stack, hours, hosting

Core features, the genuinely interesting problem, a suggested stack, an honest hour estimate and where it hosts free. Enough to open an editor and start, rather than a title you still have to think about.

The brief

Cards you keep getting wrong come back tomorrow; the easy ones wait months.

Step 3

Ship it and mark it

The pool learns what you like

Track it as building, then built. Anything you decide on leaves the pool, so the catalog quietly tunes itself to your taste and never offers you the same thing twice.

What you'll build

Pick a lane, or let it pick

Tools

45 projects

Converters, generators and calculators. The kind of thing you build once and reach for every week after.

Games

36 projects

Wordle mechanics, Minesweeper cascades, a chess board that knows the rules. Small scope, deep logic.

Creative

33 projects

Canvas, generative art and physics. Flow fields, cloth simulation, fractals you can zoom into.

Dev tools

40 projects

Diff viewers, regex playgrounds, contrast auditors. Things you'll actually keep open in a tab.

Productivity

38 projects

Trackers, outliners and timers that remember you. Persistence is what turns a demo into a habit.

Data viz

18 projects

Sankey flows, cohort grids and treemaps. Where the layout algorithm is the entire project.

No native mobile apps and nothing you couldn't finish — the catalog filters those out at build time, and every rejection is logged with its reason.
