Ask HN: What open-source side projects are you working on in 2025?

Curious to hear what open-source projects people here are building, why you started them, and if/how you’re sustaining them (donations, hosting, support, etc.).

Here is Mine

1. https://github.com/Buho-Ecosystem/Buho_go 2. https://github.com/pratik227/zap_dashboard

Links welcome.

    Mostly still just working on my KaithemAutomation project, that I maintain for creating interactive props and puzzles, plus a few trivial not yet released projects.

    Right now, I'm experimenting with adding the ability to create DMX lighting effects plugins in WebAssembly, which I'm excited about.

    https://teskooano.space - mostly it's just a learning exercise in building a 3D engine and simulation, but also has a lot of work around custom UI - the source is available on GitHub.

    I have an ntsync wrapper for rust i made for fun. Everything else are toys that don't work half right.
