One among many. Learner, builder, walker and creator of Open Librarian.
@MyLibrarian @MichZ @35hara would be particularly interested in your feedback on this early version as I believe you’re keen book readers View quoted note →
Built a nostr client (Open Librarian) that is a book tracking/reading app. If you’d like to try it out visit www.OpenLibrarian.com 📚
Currently it is just MVP with these features:
- Find books and add to shelves
- Manage shelves (inc. hidden books)
- Manage profile
- View Friends/Foes (import from another npub)
- User profile for sharing (Library Card)
- Add interests
- Manage relays
- Login with NPUB/NSEC/Seed
For now I highly recommend spinning up a new NSEC. I’ve added the ability to import your existing friends/foes, will add cloning profiles asap.
Everything is stored client side in cache. Built using django framework, rust-nostr and on the amazing work of Open Library. Feedback and issues on the GitHub very welcome.
Very aware that I have a lot to do and the current nostr implementation I have is sub optimal. Work in progress…

Yo @allen, you recently went on MrObnoxious and made a statement that blew my mind (paraphrasing) “If you exclude London from the statistics, the UK is poorer than every state”. I repeated that I had heard this to someone else and they were asking for receipts. Can I just ask you how you got to that information as I’d be interested at understanding it more.
Cheers!
Thoroughly enjoyed this book, now 40 years old, so much of the early world of computers is echoed in what we see around us here…in this space.
Continue to defy convention!!

GM, after a week downtime why does the first full day back at work make it seem like you never had any time off?
Anyway, onwards! 🫡
GM nostriches!
Other than Damus and Primal what relays would you recommend to noobs who have no concept of nostr or sats.

Yes! Glad to have a new episode drop, been too long @Wavlake, though I imagine that is just because you’ve been so busy. Keep it going!

It was fun while it lasted, now we’re onto the old scammy bot whack-a-mole replies and messages phase.
Are we winning? 

Hahah, well that was brutally honest!!
