The full story

A mother's son, who is autistic with HPI, has a direct way of communicating that is sometimes misunderstood at school. He talks freely with AI but not always with his teachers. After a difficult situation that summer, she asked Claude to help her build a solution.

Claude helped design a translator between autistic and neurotypical communication styles. The translator itself runs on the Gemini API because it was free. She has no coding background and describes Claude as a patient partner in turning her frustration into something useful.

An independent community project. Not affiliated with Anthropic.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.

Privacy. No accounts. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) only if you accept them; no ads or cross-site tracking. Searches are counted anonymously (just the words) to show what's popular, and so are clicks on Ask Claude (just the count).
