Hello 👋🏼

I hope you're having a great day! ☀️ Below you can see the (small) things I put together — I like to code Quality of Life (QOL) scripts.

You can read more about me by visiting my website.

Newest thing(s) I'm experimenting with

Active projects

  • ☔ My biggest project (using 6+ different APIs) → Umbrella:

    A simple weather page that tells you if you need to take an umbrella when going outside ☔ + it shows sunrise/sunset times, and air quality information for supported regions. Currently only in Polish.

  • 💸 Script to be notified about currency rates & when to buy/sell them → notifier-forex

  • ⬇️ Playing around with auto-downloading videos from YouTube when a new video is published on a channel I like (using RSS) → youtube-downloader-rss

  • 📺 Downloading YouTube videos (or extracting music from them) — on demand or automatically by taking URL from clipboard or Pushbullet or Raindropyoutube-downloader

Inactive projects

  • 🏠 Perhaps my second biggest project (using ML and AI before AI became so popular 😱) → flat-finder:

    Looking for a modern, nicely looking apartment but tired with all these old flats from the '90s? Let's automate that :)

    Scrape apartment offers from OLX․pl, analyse them using artificial intelligence (AI) model to get only good looking flats and (optionally) run IFTTT automation (eg. send email; add a to-do task) when new offers matching search criteria (eg. ≥ 2 rooms, ≤ 2k PLN, ≥ 30m²) are found.

  • 🚗 My Python project (to find a car) → otomoto_olx-scraper:

    Scrape car offers from OTOMOTO․pl & OLX․pl and run IFTTT automation (eg. send email; add a to-do task) when new car(s) matching search criteria is found. With support for native macOS & Windows 10 notifications.

  • 🗺️ Script to visualize my car trips on an interactive map → fuelio-trip-visualizer

  • ⚡ Control Tuya-compatible light bulbs & sockets in your smart home from Windows / macOS computer → control-tuya_smarthome

  • 📦 And a script to look for updates for my Kindle → kindle-updater

  • 💬 Another Python project I've managed to build (to improve my vocabulary) → kindle-words:

    Do something useful with your Kindle notes :) This script extracts individual words from My Clippings file hidden on your Kindle e-reader, translates them using Google Translate and exports the pair "original word" → "translation" into a .txt file from which you can learn these words or import them into an application such as Quizlet.

  • 🚚 My first Python module available on PyPI → win10toast-click:

    An easy-to-use Python library for displaying Windows 10 Toast Notifications. Improved version of win10toast and win10toast-persist to include callback_on_click to run a function on notification click, for example to open a URL.

  • 🐍 And yet another Python one (to save time) → eSkarbonka-update:

    Periodically check & get a native system notification if value was changed on a website. In this case, get value from my WOŚP's eSkarbonka.

  • 🤖 And an idea I had... → emails-from-pdfs:

    Extract email addresses from PDFs stored in multiple folders. For example: you can download candidates' CVs from your HR platform and this script will extract all email addresses found in the files.
