What it does
PandaTalk is a voice-first Chinese language learning app that lets you practice real conversations with AI tutors. Built with natural speech, instant feedback, and engaging dialogue, it helps learners build fluency faster—anytime, anywhere.
Calm, deliberate practice for real conversations in Mandarin. Voice role-play with an AI tutor, organized by the scenarios travelers actually face.
PandaTalk is a calm, deliberate trainer for the conversations you'll really have in China: ordering dumplings, asking where the metro exit is, splitting the bill, checking in to a hotel. Twenty minutes a day, with an AI tutor who is patient and never condescending. Every lesson follows the same three steps. The sequence is the thing. See each word one at a time. Click once, hear it pronounced by a native speaker. Pinyin for reference, English so you're never lost. Move on when you're ready, not when a countdown says you are. Watch a conversation unfold between two speakers in a real scenario. Every line is clickable, every line is replayable. No cartoons, no personalities to befriend, just…from pandatalk.ai

I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
