Shufflz is an implementation of the 15 puzzle game using Svelte and Tailwind CSS in under 100 lines of code.

I used to play 15 back when I was a kid and I thought it would be a cool little project to write the game from scratch using a modern web stack and play it with my daughter.

I have two at the moment working on a third. The first one I’ve made around 2k last year the other one is in stealth mode as it depends on a functionally from the third one.

I gotta say it’s pretty hard to work on side projects and have a life if you hold a regular job and family but it’s doable.

My utopia is to build side projects that are fully automated and self sufficient so I don’t need to spend times on things I don’t enjoy like support etc.

What got my foot on the door was to have a side project, not any MVP but a finished product with nice UI, well written README page etc. That would be a good start to go along with leet code etc.

It faces my backyard so nobody can really see anything. I've also change the locker in sliding door to lock from the outside if I want extra security.

Yeah, I’ve considered that, but if you end up doing many Home Depot runs the sacrifice can save you a few bucks. I could also have planned better. :-)

It doesn’t get super hot in here but I have one of those portable fans that you put water or ice in and it cools down real nice.

That was exactly the main reason I’ve moved away from Spotify. I didn’t care about podcasts and there was no way to turn it off. Eventually my Home Screen was mostly podcasts recommendations like you said. I’m happy with Apple Music.

Nice work! I really like the clean interface. I've been using TablePlus for the past year and it works nice but I feel the UI could be a little better, like yours for example.

Any plans to support MySQL or Postgres?

I see Neologin as more of a middle layer since it won't actually manage any user data, it will just facilitate user login and authorization based on Stripe.

Neologin is agnostic about how you map the users on your end, you can just match directly via email against the Stripe API or have a user table for more flexibility.

I think the biggest gain in my opinion is that you don't need to worry about how the users will login and how to authorize features or pages that's what I'm trying to address with Neologin.

Thanks for your feedback.

Like others were saying just try to organize your project into atomic independent tasks that you can finish in a day or two, keep doing that consistently day after day and results will compound. Talking from personal experience.
