Side Fun Project - Forward2 A URL ShortenerRepo: https://github.com/loujr/forward2 Forward2 is a url shortener that takes long links and makes them shorter similar to any service you would find online. Everyone aspires to have living, useful code. I wanted to make my barrier of entry very low. This started out as a simple print to file minimal viable project and has ballooned to increasingly complex functionality. This project now utilizes two separate python services one to generate short links and the other to redirect you to the correct page. I have split the components to an API with the option of adding UI elements later. This is further integrated with another project you can find on my profile called MikeTysonBot. I am a GitHub Staff member who works in our Ecosystems Teams. My speciality is API and integration hence why this program has API components. My goal is to work more on our platform development and continue to contribute code to our monolith. |

I've a little project that showcases the GitHub API's. It's called The Power it's useful for teaching, learning and demonstrating how GitHub's API's work. The idea is to keep things simple by demonstrating an API endpoint in a single script such as create-repo.sh |

chessapi4jHi! I started this project last year and have been improving it, fixing errors and bugs along the way. This year, I picked it up again and made several improvements. It is a Java library that allows you to work with chess-related operations. The library includes features like verifying legal positions and legal moves, working with PGN files, generating legal moves from a given position, and handling FEN strings. Since chess is a game, many natural abstractions arise. Developing a relatively fast move generator was particularly challenging (I believe Java can't offer much more speed), while also ensuring it passed the standard unit tests for a move generator. The library includes many features, and perhaps I'm not doing a good job of describing them all. I am just an amateur programmer, and I wrote this library because I wanted to create a server for an online chess website. As I started, I realized it was better to develop it as a separate project from the server, and then I realized it didn't have to be proprietary software, so I decided to share it, which led me to GitHub in the first place. |

Wow, it looks awesome! that’s a serious flex. Just a few minor observations: maybe the background could be a bit smoother (something like this) and you could prevent the skills from covering the navigation bar by using a different z-index for the navbar class.

fan_control (https://github.com/TarikTornes/fan_control)Hey everyone I am an undergrad student from Luxembourg and I am new to the OpenSource world and to C and therefore decided to create a small project which is a daemon called fan_control. It started when I wanted to build my own little DIY homeserver with a Raspberry Pi 4B, and decided to cool it with a small cooling system which uses a fan. It bothered me that the only option was to run it permanently on full speed, so I decided to build my own little project in order to fix my issue and improve my C knowledge by coding a small daemon which checks the temperature of the Raspi and adjusts the fan speed according to the temperature. I am sharing it with you to hopefully get feedback and suggestion according to my style of coding, efficiency and everything about creating a OpenSource project, since I am quite new to this. Feel free to give me feedback of any kind, wether it is a comment below or as an issue on my repo. PS: You can also give feedback to my other repos. |

@幽灵在壳中 我是一名传统文化爱好者,刚刚起步而已,搞了一个关于传统五行的网络建模分析的跨学科开源项目,望大家多多关注! 项目介绍这是一个用网络科学和python对中国传统五行以及传统罗盘进行网络建模分析的跨学科开源项目,其中,五行万物类象节点表,第一列为节点名称/类型/维度编号,第一行为标题,第二行为核心节点,部分复杂关系节点的多层属性已经用标点符号和空格分隔,是我基于邵雍的系统思维启发,已经按维度(天S、地D、人R)对关系节点进行编号和横向分布,除五个核心外,其余大部分关系节点均可能存在属性爆炸,鉴于此,咱们就先做一番基础网络验证,而后用pandas库创多层嵌套字典,接着咱们尝试用邵雍的八卦万物类象做完本地预演,最后,各位还可接入AI模型API进行训练。 核心目标是通过Python量化建模,解构传统五行万物类象、罗盘方位体系的复杂关系网络,验证其系统关联性,并提供从基础网络分析到AI模型接入的全流程实操方案。 核心特色1.跨学科融合:网络科学方法论 + 传统五行/罗盘体系 + Python数据工程; 数据目录(在仓库里):五行万物类象节点表 核心数据说明 核心流程实操:快速开始: 后续计划: 项目依赖:
数据处理: pandas、numpy |

🌤️ Madrid Weather Map - From Forest Engineer to Web DeveloperRepository: https://github.com/TrueRomanZe/madrid-weather-map 👋 Quick IntroI'm Sergio, a Forest Engineer from Madrid with 12+ years in GIS. I've spent over a decade creating maps and automating workflows for government agencies... but always internal tools nobody saw. This is my first public project combining GIS expertise with web development (which I'm learning as I build). 🎯 The ProblemLiving in Madrid, I was tired of checking multiple weather apps just to answer: "Should I go outside today?" The data was there, but I had to mentally process temperature, wind, humidity... As someone who works with data daily, I thought: there has to be a better way. 💡 The SolutionA web app that shows real-time weather for all 179 Madrid municipalities with a simple color system:
It analyzes multiple factors (temp, wind, precipitation, thermal sensation) and gives one clear answer + personalized recommendations. Auto-updates every 3 hours via GitHub Actions. No manual intervention needed. Tech: Python · Leaflet.js · GitHub Actions · GeoJSON · OpenWeatherMap API 🚧 Biggest Challenges
🎓 What I Learned

WeekWise – A Weekly Schedule Manager for WebsitesRepo: https://github.com/hndrkdrs/weekwise 📋 What It IsWeekWise is a lightweight, self-hosted weekly schedule tool. No continuous calendar, no recurring appointments to maintain – just a clean, interactive view of your week that you can embed on any website via iframe. Built with vanilla JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and minimal PHP – runs on any basic webspace.
(It's all in German, but you'll get the hang of it quickly.) 💡 What Inspired MeI volunteer at my local sports club in Germany and took over the website. Whenever a training time changed, someone had to update an Excel file, export it as PDF, upload it to the website – sometimes multiple times a week. It was painful. I looked for a simple weekly schedule tool I could embed, but everything I found was either a full-blown calendar (with recurring events, holiday conflicts, and all that overhead) or didn't fit at all. So I built my own. ✨ How It Works & ChallengesThe tool in a nutshell: The idea is: set it up once, maintain it with minimal effort. You manage everything through the UI – colors, categories, which days to show, time range. Then you embed it on your website via iframe and visitors see a clean, read-only schedule. Admins can log in directly on the embedded page to make changes. It runs on any basic webspace that supports PHP – shared hosting, Plesk, cPanel. No frameworks, no dependencies, no build step. Just HTML, CSS, vanilla JS, and two small PHP files. Use cases beyond sports clubs: family weekly planners, room booking displays, community event schedules, or info screens – basically anywhere you need a simple "what happens when" overview for a fixed week. Challenges: 👋 About MeI'm Hendrik from Germany, and I'm not a programmer. I'm a curious person who loves good software – software that does exactly what it needs to do. I'm a fan of open source and systems I can put together however I want. I was tired of always finding solutions that only fit 80% of my use case and having to settle for the rest. Last year, I started using AI to build the tools I actually needed. I learned more about coding in one week than in three years of computer science classes at school. My goal on GitHub is to share what I build, learn from others, and hopefully make tools that are useful beyond my own use case. 🙏 Feedback Welcome
Feel free to comment here or in the repo discussions. I'd love to hear what you think about WeekWise! |

Happy to share Moveet — a real-time vehicle fleet simulator I built. It loads real road networks from OpenStreetMap/GeoJSON, runs A* pathfinding to generate realistic routes, then drives a configurable fleet of synthetic vehicles along those roads — streaming live positions over WebSocket. The main use case is giving developers a realistic GPS data source to build and test fleet management software against, without needing actual vehicles. It includes a D3.js dashboard to visualize the simulation in real time. Built with TypeScript/Express/WebSocket and includes an adapter layer for Kafka, Redis, REST, etc. |

🔥 Have you already shared your project here in the Spotlight? That’s awesome but why stop there?
👉 Right now, GitHub is running the Zero to Merged contest. It’s your chance to showcase how you’re using GitHub tools (Copilot, Actions, Projects, and more) to build faster and smarter.
✨ Imagine this: your project featured on GitHub channels, and if you win the grand prize… you’ll be presenting LIVE on the GitHub Universe keynote stage (yes, travel included!).
But here’s the catch: the contest closes at the end of this week. If you’ve already put your project in the Spotlight, you’re exactly the kind of builder Zero to Merge is looking for.
🚀 Don’t just Spotlight your work! Put it on the Univ…
