I got tired of frantically googling "is this plant safe for cats" so I built a free database of pet-toxic plants.

Basically, what's in the title.

I built this site over 3.5 years ago and have only recently given it a fresh coat of paint. I haven't really done anything to spread awareness, but thought I might give it a go on this sub to gauge interest.

The idea started with the classic houseplant-owner problem: you see a nice plant, you have pets and suddenly you're deep in ten tabs of conflicting, ad-stuffed info trying to work out if it'll hurt them.

So I built Plant Smart as a general guide. You can search by plant name (common or scientific) and see severity, which animals it affects and what symptoms to look for. There's also a reverse-lookup: if your pet is already showing symptoms, you can search by those and narrow down the culprit.

It's completely free, ad-free, slop-free, no account needed and has an open API you're more than welcome to use if you want to build off it. All collated data is open and sources are all mentioned in the attributions page.

EDIT: I just wanted to thank everyone for their support and kind words. This is a fairly old project by my personal standards and the recent facelift has breathed some new life into it. I've already started working on some of your recommendations / feature requests and am giving the dataset a much-needed scrub for accuracy while also pulling in some new open reputable sources to further enrich the data. Have a great week!

Made a super comprehensive resource listicle for navigating Endometriosis and Adenomyosis.

Here's the Github resource list related to 1in7: https://github.com/bloo-berries/Awesome-Endo-Adeno-Resources

Made specifically because these conditions are under-represented, under-researched, and scientific research is getting pulled from databases!

I made a website about prime numbers

Thumbnail primenumbercheck.org

I made https://primenumbercheck.org/ - It is a website that allows you to check whether a large number up to 20k digits is a prime number, plus a lot of information about prime numbers.

Full disclosure: I'm just an engineer with some odd interest about prime numbers, I'm not a mathematician so I cannot guarantee everything there is correct. But I did my best.

It's 100% free. No ads, no accounts, no tracking. Just a little side quest project. I hope someone finds it interesting.

Celestial — Interactive Gravity Well Simulator

Thumbnail
celestial.logicaleap.com
100 Upvotes

Celestial lets you explore star systems as a deformable gravity sheet instead of flat orbital diagrams.

The star moves. Planets sit on and ride the surface it bends. You can change the gravitational constant, push a planet, or drop a new body in and watch the whole system respond in real time.

Systems included:

  • Our solar system (with a drifting barycentre)
  • Alpha Centauri (two moving funnels)
  • Kepler-16 (circumbinary planet)
  • TRAPPIST-1 (seven worlds inside Mercury’s orbit)
  • The classic three-body figure-eight

It’s a proper Newtonian n-body integrator running in the browser, not pre-scripted ellipses. The sheet itself is an exaggerated visual analogy, and the site is unusually honest about what is real and what is drawn that way on purpose.

https://celestial.logicaleap.com

Free, no account, runs in the browser.

A search tool for finding which hatchery has a specific poultry breed in stock

Thumbnail
hatchindex.com
58 Upvotes

If you've ever tried to buy a specific chicken, duck, or turkey breed, you know the drill. Check Cackle. Check McMurray. Check Meyer. Check Ideal. Stock turns over fast enough that whatever you find is often already wrong by the time you act on it.

Built a tool that checks 10 US hatcheries at once so you don't have to do that. It pulls breed, stock status, price, minimum order, and hatch date into one place, updated a few times a day. Doesn't take money from any hatchery to be listed, it's just reading public availability info.

Built it for myself first, sharing it here since I figured I wasn't the only one dealing with this. If there's a hatchery or filter you wish it had, let me know.

I built a free site that shows any restaurant's official health-inspection grade across 10 US cities

I kept wanting to check a restaurant's health inspection before ordering, but every city buries it in a different clunky government portal. So, I pulled 10 cities' official health-department data into one place with a normalized A–F grade you can actually compare. It's free, no signup, no ads-wall, data shown unmodified straight from each city. Would love feedback how functional this might be for other people, Thank you!

Built a site that indexes every legal cube state as one big number, scroll and the cube updates live.

Not a game, there's no objective, no score, no win condition. It's an index/visualization of every one of the 4.3×10¹⁹ legal Rubik's Cube states has a number, and scrolling moves through them. Think everyuuid.com, but for the cube permutation group.

Stowaway – take the window seat on any plane or satellite overhead

Thumbnail
stowaway.live

When I was a kid — back when travelling still felt new and exciting — I would see a plane crossing the early evening sky and try to put myself in it. Not to go anywhere in particular. I just wanted to know what the world looked like from up there, right then, to whoever was sitting by that window.

The feeling was strongest at sunset. I'd be watching a good one from the ground and think about how much better it had to be from up there, above the haze, with the light coming in level. The same sunset from a perspective I couldn't reach.

Travel has lost most of that. Airports, queues, delays: everything wrapped around flying has got steadily worse. But the flying itself hasn't changed. An hour into a clear evening flight, forehead against the glass, looking down at a world you almost never see from that angle, and it is still one of the quietly moving experiences I know.

Stowaway is that part, without the rest of it. Pick any aircraft or satellite actually passing over your house right now and go sit in its window seat.

A map with the location of every major artwork in the world

Thumbnail artatlas.it
33 Upvotes

An art lover who travels has no normal way of knowing how many artworks are around him. Walking through Florence, or Rome, or Paris, you might pass within a few metres of that Giotto, or that Monet, you had always wanted to see, without knowing it was there. Guidebooks flag only the things everyone already knows, the Mona Lisa and its equivalents. There is no tool built specifically for people who care about art, one that lets you plan a complete and accurate art itinerary covering the works that are essential to an enthusiast and relatively obscure to everyone else.

The same problem in reverse: someone who loves Caravaggio can probably find all of his works on Wikipedia, but placing them on a map in a way that is actually useful for planning a trip takes time. And if the artist is a less obvious name, Pontormo say, or Koloman Moser, it gets considerably harder.

ArtAtlas solves this. You are on your sofa and you want to know where all the Van Goghs are? One click. You are in Florence and you want to know which works are within 100 metres of where you are standing? One click. You are travelling around the Netherlands and you want to know where everything worth your attention is? That is the problem this solves.

Currently 23,000+ works, 400+ artists, 1,700 venues, 800 cities.
