Curious MintsThings I'm making
Some are finished and used by real people. Some are half-working experiments I have not gone back to. Both are listed the same way.
EventMate
A simple SMS tool for conferences. Attendees text a number instead of installing anything, which turns out to be the whole point.
In use at real eventsgeteventmate.com

Music Cards
NFC cards my four-year-old taps to play a song. No screen, no phone, no asking me to do it for her.
Prototype

A Spotify Wrapped style look at your Amazon order history. Everything is processed in the browser, so the data never leaves your machine.
SnapNotes
A screenshot app for macOS.
