I made a command line music playing frontend. It has a list of all my music as a flat text file, then if I run "music" it shuffles randomly, or I can add a regex as an argument to pick the files from the list. It works surprisingly well - given my folder structure I can just type in "music <artist>" or "music <genre>" or "music <specific song>" and it just does it. It also has a flag for turning shuffle mode on or off.

Very simple, but very comfortable for me.

I also created my own TODO / dashboard app, where all tasks are on a schedule (do this every x days) and I can enter a value each time I complete a task. These then show up as graphs on my dashboard - helpful for tracking weight etc. I also graph a bunch of random things automatically in the same system (how many unread emails I have).

It also tracks how many tasks are overdue so I can measure my general ability to get stuff done, and if it gets overwhelming I can tweak the settings so it just shows me a few things (or more realistically I tweak the task to either not need doing/tracking, or I slow down it's cadence).
