N.A.N.Y. 2019: The Decision Sieve
« on: July 29, 2018, 11:49 PM »
Just throwing together my other 2019 applications before writing new ones...

NANY 2019 Entry Information

Application Name The Decision Sieve
Short Description A web service that will help you filter your bucket list.
Supported OSes Any.
Web Page https://tuxproject.de/projects/decision-sieve/
Download Link https://code.rosaelefanten.org/decision-sieve/
System Requirements
  • It's a HTML site, entirely written in JavaScript/CSS. There are not many systems which don't support that.
Author uhm, yes

Description
Generally spoken, this is a web service that will help you filter your bucket list. If you have a limited budget or you need to limit your shopping to a certain number of things, the Decision Sieve can help you clean up your list to a reasonable amount. I actually wrote it to decide about which whisky to buy - and it helped me a lot.

Features
- Can filter your bucket list.

Usage

Priority Sieve:

- Enter a list of things in your list.
- Optionally, mark a couple of things as "less important" or "more important" using the slider on the right side.
- Enter the maximum number of things that should be left after sieving.
- Press the button and watch the magic happen.

Price Sieve:

- Enter a list of things in your list.
- Specify the particular price for each thing in the list.
- Enter the maximum budget.
- Press the button and watch the magic happen.

Known Issues
I am bad at web design.
I bet when Cheetahs race and one of them cheats, the other one goes "Man, you're such a Cheetah!" and they laugh & eat a zebra or whatever.

The one thing that I would suggest is to make the sieve non-destructive.. so that users can switch back to the full view.  The idea that the items are permanently deleted after sieving is unpleasant..

Hmm, the general idea of a sieve is that some things will be removed from what is fed into it. Is there a use case for restoring everything?

The only reason I could imagine is that you are unhappy with the results, but then, why did you use it anyway?

:huh:

I have just noticed that the "supported OS" field said that you'll need a C++ compiler. Oh man...  ;D
Fixed.

There's also the scenario where an item is filtered out, and it's only then that you realise how important it is to you...
So yes, undo button good :-)

That should probably read "this browser is unsupported", with the side note "use a modern and up to date browser", IMHO
