  1. COOKBOOK.EXE (Cookbook) (opens in a new tab)

    Size 206 ONLINENEW!*SYSOP PICK*

    Cookbook

    A web app for keeping and browsing recipes, hosted right here on Kongomax.

    The Cookbook is the first real, live project on the site: a recipe app running at cookbook.kongomax.com. More about it soon.

  2. PIXELPAN.EXE (Pixel Pantry)

    Size 285 ONLINE*SYSOP PICK*

    Pixel Pantry

    A recipe box that only accepts recipes you can fit on an index card.

    I kept losing recipes in forty browser tabs, so I built a tiny recipe box. Every recipe has to fit on a virtual index card. If it doesn’t fit, the recipe is too complicated and you should make toast instead.

  3. BUSORACL.DLL (Bus Oracle)

    Size 292 BETA*SYSOP PICK*

    Bus Oracle

    Tells you when the next bus is coming, with the confidence of a fortune teller.

    Pulls the city’s live transit feed and predicts arrivals. It is right most of the time. When it is wrong, it is wrong with total conviction, which is honestly the most authentic bus experience available.

  4. DICEGOBL.COM (Dice Goblin)

    Size 279 ONLINE*SYSOP PICK*

    Dice Goblin

    A dice roller for tabletop nights that remembers every bad roll you've made.

    Rolls any dice you can type (3d6+2, 1d20 with advantage, 100d100 if you are a monster). Keeps a history so everyone at the table can see who has been cursed. Recently Dice Goblin learned to sulk.

  5. TIDETIME.TMP (Tide Timer)

    Size 222 WIP

    Tide Timer

    High tide, low tide, and a countdown to the best time for rock pooling.

    A tide chart for one specific beach I like. Currently it knows the tides for exactly one week of the year, which I am told is not enough weeks.

  6. PLANTNAN.EXE (Plant Nanny)

    Size 214 BETA

    Plant Nanny

    Nags you to water your plants before they file a complaint.

    Each plant gets a schedule and a little mood meter. Miss a watering and the mood drops. My ficus is currently rated “disappointed but hopeful”.

KEYBOARD COMMANDS

Hotkeys on this screen:

Moving around:

[] [] or [K] [J]
move the highlight through a menu or file list(J/K from anywhere start at the main menu)
[] []
move along a menu, or between the links of one file
[Enter]
open the highlighted entry
[Tab] [Shift+Tab]
next / previous link, anywhere on the page
[M]
back to the main menu
[?]
this help screen
[Esc]
close this help screen

Hotkeys rest while you type in a text box or hold Ctrl, Alt, Cmd or Shift.

The "hotkeys" switch under the main menu turns every single-key hotkey off and on, in case they get in the way of speech input or stray keypresses. [X] also turns them off, but once they are off only the switch turns them back on. Arrows, Enter, Tab and Esc work either way. This browser remembers the choice.
