I'm a software developer looking for an idea for a open source project. What do you think it could be helpful?
tl;dr: title. \- BEGIN soliloquy about how I learned about Austrian Economics. \- As the title implies, my knowledge on austrian school is very limited. Besides the audiobook of The Ethics Of Liberty(which sounded more like political than economical), the first chapters of Human Action and The Machinery Of Freedom, what I know about it mostly comes from articles from mises.org, Peter Schiff, and some presentations here and there. But the small glimpse was enough to make things much more clearer. I've been curious about economics since my early adult age (I'm 36 now), but it was only five years ago, when I watched the presentation of Peter Schiff about the economic meltdown, that everything started to make sense. Unfortunately I didn't have time to dedicate as much as I wanted, and audiobooks while in the subway didn't work quite well for me. \- END soliloquy \- Things changed in my life and now I have much more time available, I'm eager to start a FOSS project, and if I could do something that would help on specific calculations based on austrian principles it would be great. I see there are lots of calculators and spreadsheets, but most of them seems to address only a specific thing. I don't see anything fully integrated like there is for traders, for example. Considering how limited my knowledge on this is, I think I good begining would be to ask for suggestions for _technical_ books from austrian school. Most of what I read so far are mostly philosophical or speculative about how certain arrangements would work. Any inputs, suggestions, constructive criticisms will be greatly appreciated.
