In plain words
A hobbyist project where someone built a cyberdeck from scratch as a personal passion project. The cyberdeck is a portable computing device combining single-board computers, displays, and input devices into a custom enclosure. This project was shared on Hackaday.io, a platform for hardware enthusiasts and makers to document their builds. It's aimed at people interested in retro computing aesthetics, DIY electronics, and portable computing solutions.

Complete BOM on github: https://github.com/CyZooNiC/cyberdeck At this time I am not quite sure yet what functionality I will be adding to the ESP32 located in the top part of the case. The basic idea is to be able to control the SDR from the knobs and buttons in the keypad. I was thinking of having some sort of menu that I can scroll through with one of the rotatory encoders and then select a function like ADS-B.

Snapdeck2025 · snapdeck.app · ▲747Hey HN, I'm Minkyu Lee, co-founder of Snapdeck — https://www.snapdeck.app I’m a founder from Seoul, South Korea We built Snapdeck because we got tired of spending hours in Keynote or Google Slides tweaking layouts that AI could fix in seconds. Now you can just describe your idea, and Snapdeck generates an entire presentation — designed, formatted, and ready to present. How it works: - You type a short prompt like “Pitch deck for a coffee startup that focuses on sustainability” - Snapdeck builds a clean, minimal slide deck (titles, visuals, charts, and theme included) - You can edit…
OpenDeck – Platform for building MIDI controllers2021 · github.com · ▲47This is OpenDeck, my own platform for building custom MIDI controllers. I've been working on it for more than 10 years, and now I've made the biggest change so far - rewritten the entire codebase to make use of Zephyr - RTOS with which I've been working professionally for few years now. This now allows me to support many newer boards, complex features and also to modernize the codebase in general. I've been limited on all fronts before. The platform itself allows for simple building and configuring of custom MIDI controllers - main reason for that is because it requires no coding. Load the…
Pressdeck2025 · pressdeck.io · ▲311As a long time indie developer, I always needed a way to promote our products, talk to influencers, journalists, and share our story. Press kits are essentials to make these communications smoother and more pleasant. However, sharing information via public Google Drive folders and Dropbox folders is outdated and does not leave a lasting impression... So, I've built Pressdeck - an online press kit builder your products! I'd love for your to try it out and let me know how to make it better for your niche!
