Gitwallet is a set tools to make it easier for people to setup a business around an open source project. Here's what you get out of the box: 1. Easy to setup commercial offerings tied to a GitHub project, like paid support, consulting or training (we provide the default legal contracts for some of these and will add more). 2. Tools to promote your services like Landing pages and Embeds for your Github. 3. Research tools to find customers that are using your open source projects. This is a actionable view of your dependents graph, and works best for projects that are distributed through a package manager. 4. Light CRM, reporting and contract management. These will eventually integrate with the best in class CRM, reporting and analytics tools. Some more notes on our thinking: https://blog.gitwallet.co/. We think that there should be a better way for more commerce to happen around open source projects and ecosystems. We're looking for feedback from folks within and around open source - this could be existing maintainers, contributors, and indie developers that are considering building a business around their project or expertise. Thank you for your time & feedback!

Many years ago, I made VJ softwares (to mix live visuals in clubs) for unexpected platforms like the Game Boy Advance, the Playstation 2 and the Raspberry Pi. This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training.
