# Ideation 2023-03-10 -> present
## Doc rules
- Add a meaningful title
- Outline what the features would be
- add an idea of the tech stack
- If you can figure out a name put it down
- put the problem the app solves
- If you submit an idea to a hackathon cross out the idea using `~~` and put the hackathon name and date above the idea
:)
## These probably need AT LEAST 3 productive members on a team.
* An app kinda like X2VOL but for anyone to get volunteer hours easily signed (J'aime cette idee) [x3vol]
- Be able to join a group, and the group leader can set a target
- You then add hours and the person. They can either sign it on your phone or they can scan a qr code then quickly press "authorize"
- Use replit-hosted api to use XeTeX to generate signed documents for printing. (probably actually a python api on our server)
- Push notifs also
- app clip? idk about targeting apple but that would be pretty neat
- problem solved: `awkward to get volunteer hours from large orgs, makes it simple`
* A duolingo kind of app but generalized
- You can add activites that you need to do
- To keep a "streak" you have to add a photo of what you did to further that
- Probably just a global leaderboard to compete.
- If the photo isn't accurate, you can "flag" it, when number of flags exceeds 75% of users who viewed it it's removed and streak reset.
- problem solved: `motivates you to learn / work on stuff`
* Discord status as an app
- You put what you're doing on and then it tells your friends.
- It says the time doing the activity and you can add a little note
- Need to learn push notifs on android
- FRONTEND SUPER IMPORTANT
- problem solved: `lets you be social and have topics to talk to relations about`
* An app designed around getting homework help
- Like tinder for hw help? idk
- ethicially would need to consider cheating
- Maybe like a wiki for homework???
- problem solved: `Getting help on homework without having to have friends`
* A recommendation aggreator for media
- Users put what they media they enjoy into catagories
- Probably movies?
- You put the MPAA rating and how you'd rate it on probably 5 axae, scale 1-10 ranked most important:
- [ plot, effects, language, violence, sex ]
- You then set what your limits are for each axis
- A button to press to be recommended something from your friends that fit your limits
- kinda like recme from TAMU 2022
- mastodon-like algorithm to generate a rec
- problem solved: `finding family friendly movies without having to do research`
* An app that uses a picture to determine how much energy was used to make the food
- Uses image classification to find out how much energy was used to get the food to your plate
- Gives you a recipt based on each item
- (Refrigeration, Cows etc)
- Uses AI probably
- Problem solved: `Helps make people more aware of what agricultural pratices use the most energy`
* QRZ.com but for the 21st century
- Would be a self-service website for callsign lookups et cetera
- Probably import data from HamDB into supabase
- I would guess a react frontend but idk
- Could have a mobile app too (download to device??)
- Maybe make a backend for it to make it a bit easier to transfer
- How would auth work with that... probably should just use supabase on website and app...
- Probably do the sign-in to view street address thing
- fun Features:
* Distance from maidenhead grid (EL29cr)
* Logbook with adif imports and LoTW integration
* Anti phising thing
* Forward an email to an address, it will check things like DMARC/DKIM, known header spoofing tactics, email addresses
* Could possibly use GPT
* Alternative input: Upload a screenshot, and OCR it
* Could be made into a game to choose the phishing vs real
* Daily like wordle
* Leaderboard?
* Opsec info
- Takes a social profile, tries to traverse links / usernames
- makes a web
* Tax Simulator Game
* A game where you receive scenarios and you slowly build a tax return
* i.e. Different locations, different documens that you need to find in order to fill out a tax return
* Different levels based on difficulty, like information you need to gather, how things are calculated, etc.
* Custom level scripting API? Like a specific tax return format or something
* Problem it solves: `Helps people understand taxes and how to do them better so they stop giving money to the ̶b̶r̶i̶b̶e̶r̶y̶ lobying tax companies that pay the government millions in ̶b̶r̶i̶b̶e̶s̶ lobbying money to keep taxes complicated af`
# Two people

~~* Craigslist for hyper-local trades.
- facebook marketplace but less sketch
- doesn't provide anon messaging, maybe? idk that would be hard with supabase
- has a working search unlike FB marketplace
- Would let users list an item, include probably 3-7 photos.
- You can search by approx. distance, price, or keyword
- This should probably use firebase
- problem solved: `creates a local alternative to either giving meta all your info or putting it on sussy sites like craigslist`~~
## Avant garde ideas
* Gravatar for pronouns
- Uses some sort of id. probably email
- provides a service for websites to get the pronouns of a users
- Probably a json payload like this. See (a)
- pronouns: reflexive, nominitave, objective, possesive and that one other type
- Different pronouns for languages
- because some languages have grammatical geneder, would need a gender enum for each language
- maybe a client lib to help format it like i18n stuff?
- `$name has muted $possessiveplural notifiations`
- tech stack: `supabase, website, json`
- problem: `Helps to normalize declration of pronouns by making it easy, remvoes load on other websites to track it`
- Issue: machine grammar is really hard to do right. Would probably be easier to construt an esperanto parser
