@cytronicoder1hiii 1 more launch! this one's the kicker, and I don't see any reason I can't share it with you guys!
this summer, I built BioRSP (Biological Radar Scanning Plots)—an open-source tool that took a huge amount of time, effort, and dedication LOL I barely got sleep working
BioRSP is designed to enhance the analysis of single-cell gene expression patterns by simulating radar-like scanning across cell clusters. It’s a major step forward in bioinformatics, particularly for those of us focused on spatial transcriptomics and understanding cellular heterogeneity.
What does that mean? Imagine trying to figure out what’s going on at a massive concert. You can hear some people singing loudly, others talking quietly, and some areas where it’s just silent. But if you were up in the sky with a radar, you could scan the crowd from different angles and figure out exactly where the loudest singers are, where groups of people are talking, and where it’s completely quiet.
In a similar way, BioRSP helps scientists "scan" groups of cells to find out which ones are "singing" (expressing genes) the loudest, which ones are "whispering," and which ones are silent. This tool is super important for discovering new insights about how cells work together in tissues, like in our hearts or brains.
Basically, I wanted it to be a completely new way to visualize and analyze spatial gene expression patterns. Currently, prelim results show that it outperforms traditional methods, like Polar Gini Curves, in detecting subtle and significant spatial patterns. I've also successfully used in a case study involving neonatal mouse heart tissue :blahaj-heart:
I'm incredibly proud of this project, and I’m excited to share it with y'all FINALLY see how it can help researchers - I also published this as an actual preprint (doi.org/10.1101/2024.06.25.599250) (yes yes actually im legit researcher now much wow)

(if u get my project, I rly hope you can vote for it LAWL I submitted 2 projects that I felt were the most meaningful and technically me-representing instead of 20 coughs)
@Vuk0Created custom wall mount for my skis, since all of the ones I could find didn't display the art on the top sheet.
Available on thingiverse: www.thingiverse.com/thing:6811562
@sharajarajsarahs0After an <https://apocalypse.hackclub.com/|apocalypse> comes a revolution.:revolution-logo:Revolution is a hackathon in the UK taking place in summer 2025. Not a Hack Club event.
I created the branding and the website!
@magicfrog0possibly the strangest art project i've made! i have an weird obsession with the orange trident gum flavour and i was just goofing around one day with the packaging when i got the most random idea ever.
✨ the gum room ✨ (:heavysob:), a goofy mini room with a bed, table, closet and other stuff made with a very interesting materials... gum boxes, gum wrappers, and gum ofc (most of it soft-ifyed in a bowl of water with chopsticks ok).
i hope you enjoy, i guess?
(also since the slack image limit is 10, im adding one more in the thread of the very beginning)
@Amber0Maybe you don’t use Spotify but you want a way to share what you’re listening to? Or what if you want to share the Steam game you’re playing?
Look no further than @SlickStats ! You visit the app home to connect it to your account and then input your last.fm and Steam API keys for your status to magically update with what you’re listening to or playing!
I spent a looong time working on OAuth for this, but I’m really happy that it’s finally done.
I’m open for suggestions of other services to add!
One caveat: your automatic huddle status will get overwritten because it’s not technically a status - I’ll fix this eventually
It’s all open source at github.com/DillonB07/SlickStats if you want to check it out!
@AnthonyPagone0Hello everyone!
Over the summer, I created a mod for Minecraft Java that lets you toggle auto jump on and off for accessibility, and efficient stair climbing.

@mihir0ship time 🗣️
For times when they need blood urgently, they have one person painstakingly go through the sheet, filter out donors who haven’t donated in over three months, check if they meet certain other criteria, find out their distance from the center by putting in their address on google maps or something and individually call them on the phone and ask if they can donate. idk about you but no one deserves to go through that 💀
I asked the manager of the blood bank if I could maybe build something to help solve this as a summer project, and he, being the awesome person he is, agreed and even offered to take me around the blood bank!
Here's an outline of the app and how it works. i've also posted a huge writeup + pictures from the tour of the blood bank in #C07JBQW5W3X|! (shameless plug 😋)
@Neon0i have made an extension for crunchyroll to bring back the comments like they had never disappeared! i did this by copying the old comment UI and with a chrome extension i achieved this. if you like it please leave a review and if you find any bugs open a github issue.

@hex40my :minecraft: minecraft modpack is out! For a while I've been trying to create my perfect version of Minecraft - and I think Super is pretty close to that. it's based on Fabulously Optimized, but adds a ton more mods for immersion + quality of life. it's also client side!
get it on :modrinth://modrinth.com/modpack/super>
@GregorDavies-U04FX4ZMBJ90I shipped a opensource motor controller and datalogging system for Greenpower race cars, designed in order to maximise the speed and reduce the cost of these vechiles designed by young engineers and university teams. The motor controller is based around the RPI pico w and is a simple THT based pcb easy for teenagers to assemble and fix when at races, it's currently being made by jlcpcb thanks to onboard and I should be able to fit it to the car next week. Picture of me and my friends car jaws included which has been 13 years of work in the making. github.com/Gregor-Davies/Zevallos
@tsvrn90I'm working on creating a social media app for musicians: here's a first mini-ship to get across the arcade finish line! The current iteration includes a basic login and media picker screens... React Native is still hard asf... This is an expo app connected to supabase

@LarryLe0IG (Instagram Visualizer), is a site designed to make looking at instagram’s data about you easier. Instagram has a feature where users can request their data, and they actually return a json file. Even as a developer, going through all those json files can be daunting.
IG Visualizer will display the data in a digestable format and allow you to sort through your data, so you can decide what you want to see.
No data collection is done on our end. Our repository is public (not just because of hackclub) and was purposely developed to not need a server, meaning our process is local to the client.

@iach5260Codec Wiki is a resource designed to provide practical, higher-level information about the usage and application of various codec (coder/decoder) implementations. Codec Wiki focuses on helping users understand when and how to use codecs effectively, along with their accompanying tools. This makes it particularly useful for those who are more interested in the practical aspects of working with codecs rather than the underlying theoretical concepts.
I internationalized their Docusaurus documentation, which now supports the addition of languages from around the world.
I have also added a Traditional Chinese page. This project haven't ship, I will continue commit in feature

@TheScientist1010My friend and I just finished what I would call the first usable version of my app, StudyBits.
TLDR; it’s a Studying Tool, and you should download the app by using the link below!
I wanted to create this because of my freshman year of high school; AP HuG had taught me the error in my studying habits, so I decided to try and design a solution. Unfortunately, once sophomore year started, I didn’t have time to finish the app, which I was developing in Ionic at the time. Luckily, #C073DTGENJ2| reminded me of this idea, it also convinced me to switch to React Native, which was much better than Ionic for my purposes.
Now the app: StudyBits helps you avoid cramming for your exams by allowing you to study on your phone. You can simply subscribe to a course, which will add a set of questions to your question pool. Then, you can answer questions from your question pool by going to the “Answer” tab in the app which will randomly select a question for you to answer. In the future, we plan to implement an algorithm which selectively chooses questions which will maximize your learning in combination with spacial repetition. You might be wondering who creates the questions, well you do! To create questions, you simply create a channel and a course with whatever units you would like. Then, you create questions in the create tab to your heart’s content. WE NEED YOU TO CREATE USEFUL COURSES! Right now, all we have is a filler brainrot course, so we encourage you to make usable courses (or courses on how to mew). In the future, we plan to use artificial intelligence to inflate our question sets. Finally, you can use our app to motivate you by competing for a spot on the leaderboard. By answering questions correctly, you gain points which rank you higher on our leaderboard, we plan to make this algorithm more complex in the future. Try to beat “The Sigma Rizzler” who is at 10,000,003 points 😉.

Demo video attached below!
I know right now the UX is a little inconsistent, and has room for improvement. This app is still a work in progress :loading:…

@magicfrog0i finally finished it! :ultrafastparrot:
i made a book from scratch containing all the amazing tales from #C06RQ9TTEG3|!
introducing ✨tales from the trail ✨, a hand-made book that i binded with leather and some old-looking paper. i wrote about the AWESOME experiences that we had out there in the woods and all the amazing cool friends i made! btw tail is by far the best group! and the best part i think was the fun little 3d paper gadget things (tent that you can open and there are two sleeping bags inside), tiny lake dioramas (blue hot glue basically), pop-ups (a very wonky looking bear and FIRE!!) and other trinket stuff (like a magnifying glass to inspect people's faces if thats something you like to do)!
hope you enjoy! :)
fun fact: the book spine has pink himalayan salt hot-glued on for some reason
the entire book: docs.google.com/document/d/16lMUuA6GF8RqRvB3axDwEq4kIcqhxX17YrtS4XYHUTI/edit?usp=sharing
repo (including video): github.com/themagicfrog/talesfromthetrail
btw... another google-doc style recount about EVERYTHING that happened (that i know of) on #C06RQ9TTEG3| is coming soon:eyes_shaking:. it's very extensive, and SEVENTY pages :heavysob: long . i just gotta organize it and shorten it...
@Zaco0Finished my Enigma machine javaScript project! There's a basic framework for the Enigma process, and also a fully working Sprig game (which will hopefully be accepted soon).
github.com/ZacoTheDuck/Enigma
@BrandonKirbyson0Weeble is built!!! He self-balances using a LQR controller and has a movable head, eyes, eyebrows, and arms with lots of personality! He also has an array of distance sensors and a camera embedded in the eye! Github here: github.com/BrandonKirbyson/Weeble
@LuxKaiwalker0Whitemind v0.3 just dropped! with this ship, most of the frontend work is done. Main added functionalities were an massively improved design by restructuring to tailwind css, enabling markdown writing for the tutorial page and quto dark mode for every page. also, every planned page has been set up so we only need to write some text and add a bunch of images to get it done. unfortunately, the markdown cannott be properly styled by now so we have to see how it goes in detail, but i am confident to find a proper way to do so in the future! the repo link is here github.com/Neurologism/whitemind and we set up a domain for the project too so you can visit the website: whitemind.net
@magicfrog0this is the first PCB i've ever made! introducing... ✨ magic frog's lightsaber ✨!! i designed it originally for #C06RQ9TTEG3|... but it took a lot longer than expected lol. it has a mpu6050 gyroscope & accelerometer and ardunio nano. when you move it faster, more of the neopixel LEDs light up and each axis (x, y, z) is assigned to red, blue or green.
i first designed the entire board not planning on using the ardunio nano or mpu6050, instead components built into the board but there were a tonnn of problems (one of which was burning the bootloader but then again got to use oscilloscope to see the data lines which was sooo cool) so i decided to change plans. the board has some fun lighthouse-themed silkscreens bc i was first planning on 3d-printing a case and making a lighthouse desk lamp.
also big big thanks to @ThomasStubblefield and @ky200617 for helping me out and encouraging me along the way! :)
schematic & kicad design -> github.com/themagicfrog/lightsaber
finally, here are some fun long-exposure light photos i took and pictures of the board!
@sapmix0blutils
So, this is probably my last scrapbook about blutils! Let me recap what I have managed to do in 65 hours of coding time:
I have managed to create 10.5 coreutils in rust, which are usable.
The coreutils are still lacking a few features and some commands but they are mostly done and functional.
Blutils is not quite finished (but can be marked as a ship) and will be an ongoing project for some time, or probably for a long long time. In a few days I will add some Contribution guidelines to make contributions easier for everyone.
I would like to thank everyone here for checking out and giving great feedback on my projects, and I would like to wish y’all a great life. Thanks, thanks and thanks again.
And so, with those words, this was my last scrapbook post, unless I end up needing another hour or two!
Here’s the project: github.com/SpamixOfficial/blutils
