Sure, but you need the Mono framework which is not standardly part of other platforms than Windows. So it needs an extra sofware installation.

I think that in C/C++ and under linux you can easily create some little applet to run under terminal.
Also a good idea i think it's to build a localhost site, which you can (with php) dump data from site and modulate in your way

I'm looking for ideas for applications to make and not for programming languages to use , C# can run under every platform (OSX , Linux , windows , Android , iOS , Windows phone) . It just require some changing .

Where is my ring of blades...

I think out of all the suggestion the trading bot is an interesting one.

I think you should start a github page or any similar code sharing service and start posting your code so anybody can see and contribute to it.

I already got some ideas and I will start working now , However It may take sometime since I will start school soon but I will be releasing several tools one after the other and keep them updated as I can .
If you have more suggestions then please , post below I have no problem on getting more knowledge while developing , It helps

So if you have any ideas of some programs that should help users of Bitcoin , please shoot ! I'm open for ideas .

Remember when windows 7 has a Gadget feature?
Did you know that feature still exists in win 8 and 10 Grin

Would be cool if you can make a gadget specifically made for Bitcoin
Maybe you can put Bitcoin live price checker that updates every 10 minutes or so
Maybe another feature to check your BTC balance by using blockchain API (Don't know if this is possible)
But hey, it worth the try Grin

When you say live price checker , do you mean something like preev.com ? If it's the case then It shouldn't be that hard to do .
Same thing goes for your second request, however for what comes to the Trading bot it may take sometime since it require a lot of work. It still can be done though, I may work on it after couple of months when I'm really available (All summer).

Yep, just like preev does Wink

But you don't have to open browser to just check the price Tongue

Since Windows gadgets runs on the background you can still do your daily activities without checking the browser very 5 seconds Grin

And maybe an alert too when the price drops at a certain level or when the price goes up

What Program language are you using to develop this request ?
Cheers

I'm using C# for almost everything honestly (for web,phone,desktop applications) , I just like it .

if i remember correctly, the sidebar (windows gadget) in windows 7 was a security hole and was removed in the patches.

p.s. i finally saw someone else who uses C# like me

i would love to see your source codes

trading bot!

there are a couple of open source bots but they are not so great.
and the closed source bots are rather expensive, or i don't want to spend on them.
so it would be great to have an open source bot that works with major exchangers

agree it, sometimes i get booring with normal chart/ normal order at poloniex maybe bot with "bulk order it's good option" iam support it.

here's sth i'd really like to have; essentially a full suite for exchanging cryptos.

it can connect/sync to major exchanges;
gets realtime data for each market;
produces the chart, shows the order book and the market depth;
provides a whole set of analytical tools to add to the chart; (this is sth big that's missing from most of the exchanges.)
and places/executes orders right then and there.

all from the comfort of my desktop and all within one application. Roll Eyes

I think that a generator of paper wallet would be great.

A generator that contains the background image and you just need enter the bitcoin address, amount and the keys of the address and then generate you the paper or will even allow you to print it.

I would like to have a widget on my desktop (or in the navigation bar) where I can see the price of a couple of coins. The tool should allow to configure three, four or five coins out of list (perhaps you can use the coinmarketcap API).

I mainly use MacOSX but also Linux and Windows from time to time. Perhaps, there is a platform independent framework to build it.

Do you mean something preev.com by that watch several Crypto currencies ?

Exactly! Something like preev as a desktop or navigation bar widget would be great but with a little bit more options. Preev only allows to show 1 crypto currency at the same time. The widget should allow to show at least three.

Ya it is correct if their is a desktop tool where we can see the rates of all coins and in that if the menu is their of only showing the coins chosed or our favrite coins that will be a very good tool for the traders who dont want to go to the site and check the price.

Sometimes when i trade i need to check every minute or couple of minute if a block is mined, then if the transaction got 1 or 2 or 6 confirmation, a tool that will notify me would be nice to tell me if it exists or to be develop (if not exist) or to stay a good idea Tongue

my idea is altcoin price ticker, where you can update altcoin's price from the higher to lowest by the price or volume i mean not only bitcoin's price, we need to update altcoin's price to, and the difference of the price between one exchanger to another exchanger, it's really helpfull than check exchangers one by one

almost all of people here suggested dekstop widget with bitcoin or altcoin price real time,that's nice,but i have some program that should bitcoin user have in their dekstop,that is RSS (really simple syndycate) widget from some important site,bitcointalk forum or other source of bitcoin information like cryptocoinnews or coindesk,so we would stay update with bitcoin information without open a web browser.
