Ditto is a decentralized, self-hosted social media server that emphasizes user control and community building across platforms. Key features include a built-in Nostr relay, self-service NIP-05 management, and customizable themes.

Shakespeare is for everyone to be able to build anything. nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 explained recently during a presentation at Nostr Valley in State College!

Our Monday night vibe coding sessions with nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 are a great opportunity to ask all your vibe coding questions while seeing what the Shakespeare community has been building.

๐Ÿ’ก When you choose Claude Opus 4.5 as your AI provider in Shakespeare, you can simply do one-word prompts. RIP "prompt engineering." In Shakespeare, just type "portfolio" and it does this automatically. It has all the info on your npub from your Nostr profile, which is how you log into Shakespeare. Here's the one nostr:npub1nl8r463jkdtr0qu0k3dht03jt9t59cttk0j8gtxg9wea2russlnq2zf9d0 made in the pic. Get started: https://shakespeare.diy/

Make an Instagram alt with a one-word prompt. Log into Shakespeare, choose Claude Opus 4.5, then type "Instagram." (Cost: $8.70 with Claude Opus 4.5 via OpenRouter).

To kick off the opening of ๐ŸŽญ Shakespeare: Act II, we invite you to participate in our first monthly Challenge event! This monthโ€™s theme: Halloween ๐ŸŽƒ

Weโ€™ll be giving away 87k sats of prizes for the best submissions in 3 categories: Design Excellence, Functional Innovation, and Judgeโ€™s Choice.

Submit your app by Oct 31 to join the challenge!

Today we are thrilled to officially announce the opening of ๐ŸŽญ Shakespeare: Act II.

Act II is a dramatic improvement over the first version of Shakespeare. We have completely rewritten the codebase from the ground up to make it the most freedom-respecting AI web builder available.

Read more: https://soapbox.pub/blog/announcing-shakespeare-act-2

Try it here: https://shakespeare.diy/

What makes Act II different:

1. Runs entirely in the browser: Unlike Act 1, where your project files were stored remotely on our NSP servers, now all of your projects are stored locally in your browser โ€” so you retain all control and full privacy.

2. Full AI provider and model choice: Before, you were locked into only the providers and models available from NSPs. With Act II, you can configure ANY AI provider you want. Bring your own credentials from your favorite provider like PerPerQ, Routstr, OpenAI, Z.ai, and Anthropic; use our pre-configured Shakespeare AI provider (with both free + paid tiers), or even run your own local model! This is the most choice of ANY AI web builder weโ€™re aware of.

3. Complete development environment in the browser: Weโ€™ve built a text editor, terminal, and git version control integration directly into Shakespeare.

The new changes weโ€™ve made to the architecture of Shakespeare unlock new possibilities. One feature weโ€™re most excited about is the ability to โ€œEdit With Shakespeare.โ€

Find any compatible open source project and start improving it in Shakespeare with one click! This is the power of open source, and with AI itโ€™s finally accessible to everyone โ€” no matter your technical level.

Want to try it? Pick any app or template from our showcase and click โ€œEdit with Shakespeareโ€!

Showcase: https://soapbox.pub/showcase

Need help?

We know debugging is always the worst part of building. Weโ€™ve built multiple new tools into Shakespeare to make it easier, including an in-web console to show errors, and a friendly assistant called Quilly who may make an appearance to alert you to key errors. Keep an eye out for him!

Weโ€™ve also built out a detailed Shakespeare resource center with an FAQ and guides on how to get the most out of Shakespeare.

Resource center: https://soapbox.pub/shakespeare-resources/

Shoutout to our team and community who have been working tirelessly for the past 3 months on this release! nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqq3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnwswgs456 nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqjvnpg4c6ljadf5t6ry0w9q0rnm4mksde87kglkrc993z46c39axsus667r nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqscvyzz02ayma34hesz62pdrd5nhsmxp74hjq8msmfs9khh3r3drs878cru nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqnl8r463jkdtr0qu0k3dht03jt9t59cttk0j8gtxg9wea2russlnq7j56r5 nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpq8ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqvmu2yw nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqhee433872q2gen90cqh2ypwcq9z7y5ugn23etrd2l2rrwpruss8q6t70zp nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqyzfm42rzr3dj2h50flpvdl0uzrv22kv2y4ghve804w5xqu6lzqcqz55ej0 @danidfra@danidfra.com nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqgujeqakgt7fyp6zjggxhyy7ft623qtcaay5lkc8n8gkry4cvnrzqep59se nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqq469xmf77nt9ltu4ks3excgts36ayt6v99ryn4rv2r2axmm4ye7q9uwfw6

Truth Social chose to use open source software, and ultimately motivated our CEO, nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p , to switch from working on the Fediverse to Nostr. Alex shares the story of how it all went down. ๐Ÿ‘‡

In July, we launched #ShakespeareDIY, a conversational AI builder. Just tell it what you want to build and it does it. It sounds easy, and it is. Since this is still a new idea, DevRel nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 is here to answer questions! Here's his full demo: https://youtu.be/pK9gHjQr7nc

Our CEO, nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p , thinks the role of a software developer is akin to an artist, creatively combining tools to craft something unique.

"Create a website that tracks mentions of this hashtag..." or "Create a single-player game with a leaderboard..." or "Create an eCommerce site where I can sell my..." ๐Ÿ’ก With Shakespeare, your conversational prompts put you just minutes away from seeing your next great idea come to life. https://shakespeare.diy/

It's also a play on the terminal command "mkdir" which stands for "make a new directory" (folder).
