Ask HN: are you stuck on your side project?
have a side project, but you are stuck on a problem? or have some spare time to help a fellow programmer?
give us the link to your Github repository and get help from HN I've been building a web based comic book reader on and off for some time now. I am integrating it into a chrome packaged app and am struggling with reading zip and rar files via javascript. Right now I am using bitjs (http://bitjs.googlecode.com/), but it is very slow and often results in corrupt images. I am thinking of using NaCL to use a native unzip / unrar in chrome application, but have no experience with NaCl or C++. Has anyone done anything similar? https://github.com/balaclark/chrome-comic-reader

Does it have to be a chrome packaged app? If not, take a look at appjs or node-webkit. I'm trying to build a kind of IRC-clone using socket.io. I know that I'll have to reduce the commands to be implemented, but there's still a lot of work to be done. I do not have a specific problem, but sometimes I just don't know how to start. For instance I'm going to implement an in-browser multi-room feature, but currently it's only possible to be in one room using a specific username. I would be really happy about new features or/and ideas. Feel free to contribute. https://github.com/blubbi2/Thor Really good app, nice work!
