This is one place I store all my great ideas for software tools. It's basically my wish list!

👋 Hi! I'm DNin01.

I like:

• 🎮 Playing games
• 🎨 Being creative
• 🤝 Helping out

How did you get into coding?

My first serious programming began in Scratch. Despite being simplified, it's a pretty powerful tool and I enjoyed creating programs in it, and still use it today.

Now, I write HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

What are you great at?

• ✨ I think a lot about user experience. Whenever I make software or collaborate, I try to find ways to make things as easy to use as possible and look for small things that make a big difference.

What do you want to do in the future?

I dream of starting a company that makes software and tech products, and I'm already imagining what it could be like!

my-notebook's Issues

Notification total browser extension

Shows you if you have notifications on websites you specify so you don't have to check each site separately. If you have a notification on a site you added, it would be cool if it could display a badge with either how many total notifications you received or how many sites you received notifications from (that would be an option).

Folder backup desktop program

A desktop program that allows you to choose particular folders to regularly copy to a second hard drive to back them up.

(I know similar programs exist, but I want something simple and that backs up to a local hard drive. And Windows File History only lets me choose top-level folders from my user account (like Documents), while I want it to be more specific to start. Something like that or MacOS's Time Machine might be cool, as long as it lets me choose exactly what I want to back up.)

Autocorrect browser extension

A lightweight browser extension to autocorrect what you type without touching anything. There could also be additional features like using a Find feature to replace certain letters or words with something different, creating automatic text replacements (like expanding "omw" to "on my way"), or saving phrases for quick reuse later.

Ask before redirecting browser extension

When a website tries to redirect you to a different website, this browser extension would stop it and check with you if you wanted to go to that website.

Image hider browser extension

A browser extension that makes images you choose invisible. Maybe you want to hide a distracting GIF or background picture. Maybe you could also choose to neutralize (pause) GIFs by default.

^{Note for contributors: there are some browser extensions that allow you to block images, but they're still relying on something from manifest version 2, which will be deprecated in Chrome in 2023 (learn more here). Ideally, the software I'm looking for should be using manifest version 3 and just make the images invisible, not actually block the images.}
