My friend built this and I'm blown away with how much fun it is and the high level of polish. It renders 9 different strange attractors (Lorenz, Rössler, Aizawa, Chen, etc.) as particle systems — thousands of particles tracing chaotic paths in real time. You can rotate and zoom with touch/trackpad in 3D. The sound is the part that surprised me. It's not a soundtrack — the audio is generated from the motion itself using spatial audio, so tones shift as the attractor's behavior changes and the sound moves around you as you rotate the form. Put on headphones. The Playdate version uses the…

I built FnScribe because I'm pretty privacy concious and wanted a wispr flow-like app that kept everything local and on device. Currently works for Mac (sillicon and intel). It's dead simple. Hold the fn key, speak and release. I use a quantized Wisper small.en model for transcription. It inserts the text into the active application. There's also a hands-free model for longer dictation. Audio transcription is kept in memory. There's no account or transcription history. Clipboard contents are restored after it inserts it. GPLv3, Mac-only, English only..still in alpha. Hope you enjoy it! Would…

Hey everyone, I'm excited to share a small project I hacked together last night: a local tool to transcribe and summarize voice memos from the iOS and MacOS Voice Memos app. What does it do? It's a lifesaver for anyone who, like me, records loads of voice memos and needs an efficient way to integrate these recordings into their note-keeping system (like Obsidian). Why is this useful? - No Cloud Processing: Your voice memos are processed entirely on your device, ensuring privacy and security. - Integration with Note-taking Apps: Directly pull transcribed and summarized content into your…

Summit is a local-first macOS app for meeting recording and transcription. All audio processing, transcription, and summarization happens on your Mac - nothing is sent to the cloud (unless you chose to).

Features: - Works with any call app: zoom, meet, teams, etc. - Automatic call detection - On-device speaker identification - Custom summary templates (decisions, action items, notes) - Supports online and in-person meetings Would love feedback from people who care about local-first software and privacy.
