Ever wondered what happens to all those brilliant feature ideas and tool concepts floating around in peoples minds and conversations? They often remain just that, ideas.
That's why I created Wishlist, a GitHub-based ecosystem to transform scattered ideas into structured proposals that can eventually become "Awesome" projects.
🧞 How it works
Wishlist is essentially the "Pre-Awesome" stage in the innovation pipeline:
Web → Scattered Wishes → Wishlist → Feature/Tool → Implementation → Awesome
The formal process is straightforward:
- Fork/clone the wish template from the repo
- Fill in the structured template with your idea
- Submit a pull request to the Wishlist
- Community members discuss, refine, and validate the proposal
- Developers can fund it, build it, or collaborate on implementation
Using an RFC-inspired structure with GitHub Repos for lists and Gists for individual wishes, every proposal is version-controlled, shareable, and ready for community input.

AI-Powered Proposal Builder
An AI tool that converts simple ideas into structured technical proposals (wishes) in milisecond🤖
This tool would help:
- Newcomers without technical experience share great idea's
- Busy devs needing quick boilerplate buildplans
- Anyone with a good idea but lacking technical writing skills
The process is beautifully simple:
- Input your raw idea
- AI structures it properly
- Get a complete wish proposal
- Submit or refine
No more staring at blank templates wondering where to start!
