Made a free online reader that disguises your book as code — because reading at work shouldn't get you side-eyed

Like a lot of us, my reading time got squeezed to nothing once work started — but I still wanted to sneak in a few pages during the day without it looking like I'd abandoned my laptop for a novel.

So over a few weekends I built **ReadYourWay** — a free, no-signup web app that turns any PDF into your choice of:

- A VS Code window — file explorer, tabs, line numbers, the whole thing

- A terminal streaming "server logs"

- An actual command-line shell — you type `cd bookname`, `next`, `bm` (bookmark) and the book comes back as command output

- An Excel spreadsheet

- Or, if you don't need the disguise, a genuinely clean e-reader — scroll or page-flip, highlights, bookmarks, day/night themes

Everything happens in your browser — no account, nothing uploaded anywhere, the PDF just stays on your device. Switch between any of these anytime with Ctrl+M.

It's live at readyourway if anyone wants to try it. Built it mostly for myself, so genuinely curious what this sub thinks — bugs, feature requests, roasts, all welcome.

(Mods — flag me if this counts as spam under rule 5, happy to adjust, just figured fellow readers might get some use out of it.)

Built a tool at work to stop comparing freight/logistics quotes manually across vendors — would love India business folks' feedback

Hey all — I lead tech/R&D at a company and built this, so full disclosure it's my employer's product, not a personal side project. Posting because I'm genuinely curious what business owners think of it.

We built FreightCompare, a B2B platform to compare logistics/freight vendor quotes side by side instead of jumping between spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, and vendor portals. Built it because we kept seeing how much time gets burned figuring out who's actually cheapest/fastest for a given route, especially with ODA (out-of-delivery-area) charges being wildly inconsistent between vendors.

A few things it handles right now:

Side-by-side vendor quote comparison

ODA charge matrix by pincode (this was surprisingly painful to get right)

Batch testing across multiple vendors at once

It's live at freightcompare.ai if anyone wants to poke around.

Genuinely here for feedback though — if you deal with freight/logistics vendors for your business, I'd love to know:

What's the most annoying part of vendor comparison for you today?

Is pricing transparency actually the pain point, or is it something else (SLAs, reliability, etc.)?

Happy to answer questions, and equally happy to hear "this isn't useful because X."

👾 PlayStation-inspired minimalist wallets, built for EDC enthusiasts! 👾

We're a tiny Indian everyday carry brand that designs minimalist wallets, and we recently launched a PlayStation-inspired collection that I thought this community might appreciate.

The wallet securely holds your cards so they won't fall out during daily use, while staying slim enough for comfortable everyday carry. We also have a retro memory card-inspired version, and both can be personalized with names, gamer tags, numbers, symbols, or custom text.

As a small launch offer, use LAUNCH10 for 10% off on our website: tidybits.in

https://tidybits.in

To thank this community, I'll also be giving a few commenters exclusive coupons of up to 20% off.

I'd genuinely love your feedback:

Would you carry something like this?

Which gaming console or retro design should we make next? What other everyday carry items can we make for you next ?

To the mods: If this post needs any changes to better follow the subreddit rules, please let us know. We're happy to edit it or adjust the format—we want to contribute to the community while respecting its guidelines.

I made toe grips for my dear dog buddy

Say Hi to buddy! And he is my everything, so I made him these toe grips after very bad failures with dog boots and shoes and grips since he hated them , but the problem our house has wooden flooring which is better than tiles , but still the poor guy ends up slipping while trying to get up and I saw this first hand he fell once or twice and he was limping that broke my heart took him to vet , told him everything

The vet told me dogs when they start getting more aged develop bigger nails cause less activity and often tend to fall which may result in torn ligaments and tendons

I couldn't leave him struggling silently daily , so I went online and found dr buzbys toe grips but they were for a shopping 5.7k inr ! For 20 pieces of rubber?! I made my own mold for my dog and after lots of research and testing we have locked 6.5mm tpu inner dia as the size for a 24mm nail circumference, confirmed from dr buzbys scale , now I am so excited to share this my dog has stopped struggling in the house all together and I couldn't be happier man ! . This was all from our side

Peace !

Made this retro style memory card wallet for myself 😁

I love PS2, it was my first ps bought it back in 2009, I was a kid. And man I loved everything about it am still trying emulators like aether sx2 but they struggle with heavy titles , sadly my discs are working out and ps 2 is dead so as a tribute I made my own wallet based on the PS2 style memory cards , it's a bit based on the ps1 as well I used to play that from a neighbour nri guy , then eventually found PS2 and man that was something back then.
