A New Small New Open Source Gift for 2026

Intro
Hi everyone,
I just noticed that I'm not sharing anything new for a long time.I'm happy that I'm still remember the admin password of this blog 😀 .
Let me explain the story of this small tool first. I was just curious about my ancestry. When I downloaded the raw data file, I started digging in and thought, "There’s so much more here than just where my family came from."
Most companies lock deeper insights behind paywalls—things like
- health predispositions
- how your body handles caffeine
- sleep tendencies
- even some personality traits
and they usually charge an extra $20–30 for those reports.
That didn’t sit right with me. I care a lot about privacy, especially with DNA data, which feels like the most personal information we have. So I built a simple tool that lets you explore all of this yourself, for free, without ever sending your data anywhere.
It runs completely in your browser.
What it does
- Instant insights: See easy-to-read results for dozens of traits: diabetes risk, caffeine metabolism, sleep patterns, emotional tendencies, and many more.
- Local processing: Nothing leaves your device—everything processes locally.
Why I made it
I wanted something I could trust completely. No servers, no tracking, no hidden fees. It's fully open-source so anyone can check the code, improve it, or run it offline.
How to use it
- Download your raw DNA file from your testing provider.
- Visit https://erenkucuker.github.io/easy-dna-extractor/ (or clone it from GitHub and run locally).
- Upload the file and take a look around.
