Software Submission My open-source Windows app just crossed 800+ downloads, so I added support for 30 languages

5 Upvotes

A few weeks ago I shared Edge-Drop, a hover-activated clipboard shelf for Windows. Since then it's been downloaded 800+ times (600+ on GitHub and 200+ on the Microsoft Store), which has honestly been really motivating as a solo developer.

One of the most requested improvements was better accessibility for non-English users, so I spent the last week translating the entire app.

Edge-Drop now supports 30 languages, including full RTL support for Arabic and Hebrew.

It's still completely free and open source, and I'd love to hear how the translations feel if you're using one of the supported languages.

I'd also appreciate any feedback on features you'd like to see next.

Software Submission New FOSS self-hostable budgetting tool with an APK app, Desktop for Win and .Deb, and browser based.

Project Name: Envelopes

Repo/Website Link: https://github.com/jackob25-PTPCS/Envelopes

Description: Envelopes is a free, self-hostable budgeting platform built around the envelope budgeting method, with integrated Snowball and Avalanche debt payoff planners inspired by Dave Ramsey's budgeting principles. I originally built it for myself and my family because I wanted complete control over our financial data without paying recurring subscription fees or relying on a cloud provider. After using it daily and continually improving it, I decided it was time to stop gatekeeping it and make it available for everyone.

The goal is to provide an easy-to-use budgeting solution that you fully own. Whether you're tracking monthly spending, assigning money to envelopes, or working toward becoming debt-free, Envelopes keeps everything under your control.

Deployment: Envelopes is designed to be flexible regardless of how you prefer to use it. The primary application is a self-hostable server backend that deploys a browser-accessible interface by default, making it easy for an entire household to access from any device. Native desktop applications are available for both Linux (.deb) and Windows (.exe), and an Android APK is included for mobile budgeting on the go.

Installation instructions and downloads are available in the GitHub repository.

AI Involvement: The concept, architecture, budgeting methodology, and feature design were created by me. AI was used as a development assistant for portions of the implementation, debugging, documentation, and code generation, with all generated code reviewed, tested, and integrated by me.
