I built a festival tracker that matches lineups to your music library
Hi HN, I built this app because I was tired of manually checking festival lineups against my music library every summer. I wanted a way to instantly see which festivals had the highest 'match' density for my specific taste. Why I built this: I missed one of my favorite artists at a festival last year simply because I didn't recognize their name on a crowded poster. I realized that with Apple Music/Spotify APIs, this discovery process should be automated. Key Features: Library Matching: It scans your library and ranks upcoming festivals by how many artists you actually follow. Apple…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi HN, I built this app because I was tired of manually checking festival lineups against my music library every summer. I wanted a way to instantly see which festivals had the highest 'match' density for my specific taste. Why I built this: I missed one of my favorite artists at a festival last year simply because I didn't recognize their name on a crowded poster. I realized that with Apple Music/Spotify APIs, this discovery process should be automated. Key Features: Library Matching: It scans your library and ranks upcoming festivals by how many artists you actually follow. Apple Sync: Seamlessly imports your top artists and creates custom schedules. Offline-First: Since festival cell service is notoriously terrible, I focused on a robust local caching system so your schedule and maps work without a signal. Technical Details: Stack: React Native, MongoDB, AWS. Data: I built a custom aggregator that scrapes and normalizes lineup data from various sources to handle the 'entity resolution' problem (e.g., ensuring 'Artist A' is the same person across different posters). Privacy: All music library analysis is performed locally on-device where possible. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the UI or any technical questions about the matching logic. I’m also looking for feedback on how to improve the schedule-sharing feature for groups! How do you find concerts/music festivals that match your taste? How many festivals you join per year? Cheers!

- IMI made an app to create Spotify playlists from music festival posters2022 · apps.apple.com · ▲37
Hey HN, I'm Brett and I'm an iOS developer. LineupSupply uses Apple's Vision framework to read text from an image and then the Spotify API to create a playlist using that text. So if you provide a music festival poster, it will grab the artist names from the lineup and make a playlist for that music festival. Often when going to a music festival I want a playlist to listen to the artists that will be performing. I couldn't find any other service that automates this, so I made one myself. The app is free to create as many playlists as you want, but does have a one time in-app purchase of…

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
