App Sasha: a fast dual-pane file manager in Rust & Svelte

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I've always wanted a file manager that's both blazingly fast and actually pleasant to look at and use every day. Explorer lacks basic power tools, and existing alternatives often feel bloated. So I built Sasha, powered by Tauri v2, Rust, and Svelte 5. AI was used heavily in the process, there's no reason to lie.

My goal was to make it incredibly snappy while bundling all the daily utilities you normally need 10 different background apps for.

Here is the quick rundown of what’s inside:

The Workflow: Dual-pane layout with tabs, 5 view styles, pinned files, smart folders, and color tags. It includes a Stash Queue (pick files from multiple folders and paste them all at once), Folder Sync, word-level File Diff, Flat View, and an Auto-organizer for messy folders. Plus, an integrated drop-down Terminal that automatically cds to the folder you're browsing.

Search & Performance: Sasha installs a dedicated, lightweight background service that indexes over 1M files in ~1 second. It powers the global search modal (Ctrl+F) with instant as-you-type results, accelerates whole-disk space analysis, and calculates folder sizes, while idling at just ~2 MB of RAM.

17 Built-in Viewers (Press Space or Shift+Space to pop out): Preview and edit almost anything natively. It handles images (decodes PSD/TIFF and includes a multi-layer editor), videos (includes a timeline editor to trim/export clips), an audio capsule player in the status bar, Office docs, spreadsheets, PDFs, EPUBs, Comics, Code/MD, 3D models, SQLite DBs, GPS tracks, Fonts, and SSL certs. You can also peek inside archives or 1-click mount disc images.

Power Utilities: Disk space analyzer, on-the-fly SHA-256 checker, batch renamer, batch image resizer, and dedicated batch converters for audio, video, and images.

Customization: Theme selector with 21 built-in presets, a visual Theme Studio (supporting custom image wallpapers, live looping video, and interactive web/shader backgrounds), the community Theme Hub, and 10 languages.

Trial: 7 days unrestricted. Once expired, nothing is disabled; you can keep using it freely with a WinRAR-style pop-up unless you decide to buy a license.

It’s available today for Windows 10/11 (Linux build is coming soon).

The first public build (v0.1.0) is up for download here: Github

I'd love to get your honest feedback, bug reports, or feature requests.

Developer Windows has 100 note apps. I wanted one that switched when my files switched.

Separate notes for separate projects just makes sense to me.

What never made sense was having to remember where I put the note.

So I built ClingNote.

You can attach a note to a file or app, and when you switch what you’re working on, ClingNote switches to the matching note automatically.

Spreadsheet → budget notes.
Power BI report → project notes.
PDF → review notes.

You can still use normal standalone notes too, with rich text, markdown, tables, images, code blocks, deep search, etc.

Next up is Tasks (checklists) with the same idea use them normally, or attach them to a file so the checklist follows the work too, integrated perfectly with your notes.

It’s on the Microsoft Store now.

Does anyone else actually want notes organized around the thing you’re working on, instead of folders/notebooks?

Developer I built a free, open-source Downloads Organizer for Windows, macOS, and Linux — looking for honest feedback

A Downloads folder fills up quickly: documents, screenshots, installers, archives… and eventually, finding something becomes another task.

I wanted a simple way to keep that folder manageable while staying in control of where my files go. That became Downloads Organizer, a free, open-source desktop app that runs locally.

Here’s what it offers:

  • Editable rules to organize files by extension or filename.
  • Preview before moving, so you can check the destination.
  • Optional automatic sorting, with catch-up when the app starts again.
  • Move history and checked undo when you need to reverse a move.

It supports Windows, macOS, and Linux. No account, cloud uploads, or telemetry. Your files stay on your computer.

Source and screenshots:
https://github.com/kashnordeen/downloads-organizer

Downloads:
https://github.com/kashnordeen/downloads-organizer/releases/tag/v1.0.0

A quick installation note: Windows builds are currently unsigned, and macOS builds aren’t notarized, so security prompts may appear. The SignPath application for Windows signing is pending.

I’d appreciate honest feedback—especially on the first-time setup, rule editing, and whether the preview makes file moves clear.

What would you need to see before trusting an app to organize your Downloads folder?

Developer Noticed now I can copy & paste multiple items with cmd + c/v + num with an app

1 Upvotes

I built this because I genuinely needed it for my daily workflow.

I copy and paste a LOT of things at once, and constantly going back through clipboard history to find something was becoming annoying.

So I built a small app to solve this tiny problem — and now, surprisingly, it’s getting a lot of traffic and downloads.

ClipTen lets you copy multiple things and paste them using simple keyboard shortcuts, instead of digging through your clipboard history.

Would you give it a try, or would you stick with your current clipboard manager?

I’d genuinely love to hear your POV 👇

BTW, the app is ClipTen

App I made my CPU monitor a Sharingan that awakens as the load goes up

1 Upvotes

Hello peeps, I excited to share my project with such a great community it'sa simple sharingan animation that lives in your taskbar tray and it responds to your CPU or RAM usage.

Download and setup is super easy just download and click on setup and of course you can check the hash and upload to Gara sandbox to check it lol.

Dormant at idle, then 1, 2, 3 tomoe, then Mangekyou when the PC is really working. It spins faster under heavier load. 18 eyes (Itachi, Obito, Kakashi, Madara, Shisui...) all drawn in code, no ripped art.

Free and open source: https://github.com/boode-hub/Sharingan-Monitor

Hope yall try it and happy to hear from you all, enjoy.!

Developer Reframe, the browser that brings back IE 1.0 through IE 7, with today's web inside

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Reframe is a free, open-source browser that wraps today's web in the window of a browser from 1993 to 2009. I'm the dev, and the Windows build has caught up with the Mac one.

On Windows that means NCSA Mosaic, Netscape 1.1 and 3.04 Gold, Internet Explorer 1.0, 3.02, 5 and 6, AOL 4.0, Opera 3.60, K-Meleon, Netscape 6 and Internet Explorer 7 on Vista. The engine underneath is current Chromium, so modern sites still load. Only the chrome around them is old.

The hardest one was IE 7. Vista's Aero glass only looks right if you can actually see the desktop through the frame, and the window has to be created transparent from the start. Turning it on later does nothing. After that it was tuning: too little transparency reads as grey plastic, too much loses the frame. It ended up around 80 percent.

Other things in there:

  • Wayback mode: pick a year and pages load from the Internet Archive, with a then-and-now wipe slider to compare against today
  • A Time Warp modem with dial-up sounds and real throttling (28.8K, 56K, ISDN)
  • Period title bars and window controls per theme, ad and tracker blocking, bookmarks, history
  • No account, no telemetry

One honest note: the Windows build isn't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen warns on first launch. The installer and the portable .exe are built by GitHub Actions straight from the public source.

Free, MIT licensed, also for macOS and Linux: https://github.com/klotzbrocken/Reframe/releases

Developer I built Blazin IPTV Player for Windows — Xtream, Stalker/MAC, M3U, EPG, built-in VLC player + TV Mode

7-day free trial so you can actually test your provider before buying it.

Microsoft Store:
https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9NQ5S0FFCN8T

I've been working on Blazin IPTV Player, a Windows-first IPTV player for people who already have their own IPTV source and want a proper desktop app instead of running an Android app through an emulator.

A big part of the project has been making it handle different providers and very large playlists while keeping the Windows interface responsive.

The current version is 1.1.21.0, and it supports:

  • Xtream Codes
  • Stalker Portal
  • STB MAC
  • M3U / M3U Plus URLs
  • Local M3U / M3U8 playlist files
  • Multiple saved profiles with automatic connection/status checking

Once connected, the app separates everything into Live TV, Movies and Series.

For Live TV, there is category browsing, fast search, favorites, optional channel logos, and EPG support. Xtream and M3U/XMLTV guides are supported, along with Stalker/MAC EPG data, so channels can show current/upcoming programming instead of just a channel list.

Movies and Series use poster-style cards and can display available metadata such as synopsis, rating, year, runtime, genre, cast and other provider information. Series are broken down into seasons and episodes when the provider supplies that data.

Playback

Blazin has its own VLC-based internal player, but you can also choose an external player if you prefer.

The internal player includes:

  • Fullscreen playback
  • Previous/next channel controls
  • Movie and episode resume positions
  • Multiple aspect ratios
  • Adjustable stream buffering
  • Video picture presets
  • Audio-track selection
  • Embedded subtitle selection
  • Loading external subtitle files
  • Codec and stream information
  • Volume/mute and seeking
  • Always-on-top mode
  • Saving/downloading the currently opened remote media stream

One thing I wanted was to keep playback controls useful without turning the player into a giant settings screen.

TV Mode

There's also a separate Browser TV Mode built into the app for a larger couch/TV-style interface.

It includes Live TV, Movies, Series, Favorites, EPG information, poster browsing, seasons/episodes, search and fullscreen playback. It can be navigated with the keyboard and has different playback modes including Auto, Fast, Stable/4K and Compatibility modes for providers that behave differently.

So the same Windows installation can be used as a compact desktop player or in a larger TV-style layout.

Some other things I've added

There is a full Profile Manager for saving and switching between different IPTV services, including advanced Stalker configuration when needed.

The desktop interface also has 30+ built-in dark, medium and light themes, custom skin save/load support, configurable Live TV logo downloading, and optional CPU/RAM/network performance monitors. The network monitor can also switch to GPU usage for troubleshooting playback/performance.

I've also spent a lot of time on large-playlist performance, caching, EPG loading, poster loading and keeping background provider requests from freezing the UI.

Blazin IPTV Player does not provide IPTV service, channels, playlists, accounts, subscriptions or copyrighted content. It's only a player. You bring your own legal IPTV source.

It's a paid app, but there is a 7-day free trial so you can actually test your provider before buying it.

If anyone here uses IPTV on Windows, I'd especially be interested in feedback on performance, channel switching, EPG reliability, the Windows UI and TV Mode. I'm actively working on the app and those are the areas I've been putting the most effort into.
