You guys are a diverse group. You might be able to share
some interesting ideas that I haven't even imagined.
I need help figuring out what to do at this point.
In 2016, I started an experiment. Its purpose was to
sharpen my development skills. I didn't set out to
build anything or accomplish any goal. I just started
experimenting aimlessly. It's 8 years later, and I'm
still working on it. I've put at least 10,000 hours
into this thing.
I'm still not sure what it is, or what purpose it could
serve, but I've inadvertently created a web application.
So, what do I turn this thing into? That's where I need
ideas from you guys.
As of right now, I'm building it into a GUI platform
that allows developers to build and run custom web
applications. Unlimited users can create an unlimited
number of web apps, with unlimited 'desktops', and unlimited
'windows'.
Maybe I can turn it into a development tool for
building online video games. Maybe I could build an online
image editing app. I don't know.
Should I place it on GitHub with an open-source public
license so that everyone can build it into something?
That could be interesting.
What do you think?
I haven't yet created a user accounts system for it, so
right now it's open to everyone. I invite you to mess with
it and see what you can break. You can do what you'd like,
as long as it's not malicious, illegal, or causes harm to
anyone. You can create new 'windows', and add scripts/HTML/CSS
to them if you'd like. If any ideas come to mind, please share
them.
The main link is: https://chromosphere.com
I created a 'main menu editor tool' feature that allows you to create and edit
the main menu for the page. You can mess with it here: Main Menu Editor.
Please keep the profanity to a minimum.
Thanks, guys.

I expected Main Menu | Cascade All to cascade the windows but it seems to restore them from a minimized state. I think you may want to rename that action Restore All and implement a true Cascade (and Tile Horizontally and Tile Vertically) command at some point.
None of the other menu items (other than those under Main Menu) appear to do anything (yet).

I'm not entirely sure about which windows to restore to cascade. For example, if a window is in a maximized state, then it's exempt from the "cascade all" command. Do you think I should include maximized windows in the "restore all"/"cascade all" feature? The windows that are displayed in "tabbed view" are also exempt from the "restore all"/"cascade all" feature as well. It's sort of an ambiguous decision that I had made. I'm making this stuff up as I go.
The other main menu items are set to call "void(0);" upon a click event. You can modify that using the "Main Menu Editor" link. I should point out that this whole thing is in perpetual test mode. I wasn't clear on that in my original post.
Do you have any ideas on what I should do with this massive project? Having put so much work into it, I would like to give it a purpose. What do you think?

Iβve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

So Sunday I got the Insider for Tuesday last week. This morning I received Friday's.
It is very hit or miss if I receive them at all and they are almost always at least 2 days late.
Thoughts?

I'm struggling with one of my hobby projects at the moment - I keep going down rabbit holes. I'm not exactly sure what features I want in it yet, I first need to come up with a rough prototype, some sort of 'minimum viable product' and let it evolve from there. Suck it and see.
At the same time, in the back of my head I know there are requirements for it to be low latency, hugely scalable and fault tolerant, and this affects how it should be written. So I'll look at it and go, hmm 64bit references - too large, too much garbage collection overhead etc. So I'll remodel it all as unsafe structs in unmanaged memory. Then I'll think about memory mapped files - that could be a way of avoiding long loading and saving periods and good for fault tolerance etc. etc. Turning my C# into some mad C parody.
Such efforts are kind of irrelevant in a sense as I don't actually have anything to scale out yet and hugely time and thought-consuming and generally stalls the whole thing. In the end I'll probably just get disillusioned and abandon it, like so many other projects. I've written down on a piece of paper on my desk 'No Rabbit Holes!' but I really struggle writing stuff that I know isn't taking into account nasty things down the road. Rabbit holes - they're like magnets.
Trying to think too far ahead is perhaps a tendency that kills things dead. Does this ring bells with anyone?
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

I can't even count the number or projects I've contemplated. Few if ever started. Its like winning the lottery for me, thinking about them is as far as I've ever gotten
