Just curious what sort of current projects everyone here is working on. I've got a few 'learning projects' in development, relatively simple things but fun and useful at the same time.
Currently have a little bash-script that's pretty straight forward for creating backups every 2 hours on vpsBoard and ryscing them remotely. I've got a laundry list of features I'm planning to implement, but it's a pretty fun little learning project. Hopefully one day I'll post it up here publicly and people will get some use out of it for quickly/easily getting their VPSes backed up, regardless if their provider does it for them or not. Always good to make your own backups, offiste.
I've got a dated LEMP installer I wrote that I used to use on my own servers to get them setup quickly. I've also got a few basic features I want to add to it that does some basic optimizing and securing once installed, but it'll no way be as feature rich and elaborate as some of the great alternatives out there. But still fun and educational
And finally, an even more dated 'CMS' I wrote in PHP that basically just made updating an old website of mine easier. That way if I made changes to the links on the sidebar, header, footer, wherever I didn't have to go through and do it one-by-one on every html page. Eventually updated it a year or so ago for another side-project to password protect the demo of a site that's yet to see the light of day.
I wish I had more time. Progression on these 'projects' have been painstakingly slow as I'll work on them for a couple days then not touch them again for months.
What about you guys, what all are you working on? Even if it's been a while since you've worked on it.
