LRS: Projects Needed WIP See also [1]exercises. { If you want to maybe start some project here I'll be glad if you let me know before you start, it can be good to talk about it first as I already have some ideas about how to make some of these projects, I just don't have time to work on them, I will just give you the ideas I have if you want, we can discuss how to best write the code etc. Of course it's all up to you, I'm just offering advice and discussion :) ~drummyfish } Here is a list of some projects and project ideas which we, [2]LRS, need to make in order to pursue our goals. The projects here are mostly basic things and tools that already exist in some form, but that have to be made from scratch according to [3]LRS philosophy, i.e. in a KISS/suckless way, under public domain, in a good language (C, comun, ...) etc. This is kind of a dirty list serving some rough organization. If you have the skills and will (or know someone who does), you may take inspiration here, pick one up and make it, or contribute to some of the projects listed here. Also note that it's still possible to make multiple projects of the same type, e.g. you may still create another chess engine even though we already have one, just watch out that this is justified (it should offer something worth the extra effort). what difficulty implementation by status comment similar/for now use KISS GIMP clone 2D image editor mid? needed!
