What are some libraries, software, etc... that you'd like to see be built in open-source? (beehaw.org)

I’m trying to get accustomed to writing asynchronous/concurrent Rust or any language!

I just want to build software that helps people, and hopefully makes friends along the way.

A book/movie/object collection shelf app that has barcode scan, ISBN search, and custom database entries like money spent. They were really popular in the early 2010s but mostly subscription based and Mac only. I could probably repurpose something like Calibre to do similar things but that's a bit overkill and a lot of non-book entries would take too long to setup.
