Maybe you've created your own AR program for wearables that shows the definition of a word when you highlight it IRL, or you've built a personal calendar app for your family to display on a monitor in the kitchen. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear it.

It didn’t really stay personal, but I built a very basic Raspberry Pi Pinout website hosted on a Raspberry Pi [1] back in 2013. The intent was to collect the pinouts for some boards I was tinkering with at the time. It got wildly out of hand since [2] [3], but I think the original site meets the spirit of this question.
