Please don’t discourage people from sharing personal projects they clearly put a lot of thought and effort into. I found this very interesting, potentially useful, and I never would have discovered it without this post. Just because the person who posted it created it doesn’t make it any less meaningful. I’m sure the average reader of HN can recognize honesty in self-promotion when they see it and vote accordingly.

I would vastly prefer content like this on HN rather than lazy posts of popular news articles that I could have found through any other tech news aggregator.
