Dashboard: Tools. I used Django SQL Dashboard to spin up a dashboard that shows all of the URLs to my tools.simonwillison.net site that I've shared on my blog so far. It uses this (Claude assisted) regular expression in a PostgreSQL SQL query:
select distinct on (tool_url)
unnest(regexp_matches(
body,
'(https://tools\.simonwillison\.net/[^<"\s)]+)',
'g'
)) as tool_url,
'https://simonwillison.net/' || left(type, 1) || '/' || id as blog_url,
title,
date(created) as created
from content
I've been really enjoying having a static hosting platform (it's GitHub Pages serving my simonw/tools repo) that I can use to quickly deploy little HTML+JavaScript interactive tools and demos.
