I've published V0.1.0 of my open source project (QNote) on PyPI and tested on Linux & Windows. I quickly learnt how easily those "I'll sort it later" bits get lost in the process and make into production!

QNote is a terminal-based, local-first, note-taking app powered by Textual.
It provides a fast, intuitive, and visually appealing way to manage your notes directly in the terminal. You can find it on github - github.com/piotr-daniel/qnote

I think my win this week is that last week's weekly wins post really took off. People kept posting through this week and it was a delight to read everyone's comments!

My win was that I finally shipped my game! It's a maze game for iOS, and I've been working on it for the past 6 months. It's finally ready! I also wrote a brief article for it here: dev.to/dchakarov/from-algorithms-t.... Now I can relax and enjoy the holidays :D

What started as a rant turned into a full experimental, highly extendable, OS playground. It’s a throwback to simpler dev days, but also a serious attempt to making tech the easy part. Less than 100 files totaling ~2mb, 0 Frameworks, 0 Build steps, just static deployed chaos.

If you’re curious about the philosophy (and the mischief), check it out: The Anti‑Framework Idea that turned into FUBARos – Clippy’s Revenge

My biggest win this week was actually finally sitting down and organizing all my digital files. You know, the ones that have been piling up in a giant "Misc" folder for ages? It was totally boring, but now everything is neat, tidy, and easy to find. Seriously satisfying.

How about you?

Prismio QR

This week's win: Launched PrismioQR - a free, privacy-first QR code generator!

Built it because I was frustrated with tools that require signups or show ads. Everything runs in your browser - your data never leaves your device.

15+ QR code types, full customization, multiple formats. No signup, no ads, no tracking.

Currently upgrading with new features, but the basic generator is live.

What's your win this week? πŸŽ‰
