From scripts to quite complex webapps
Ian Henry:
Personally, making games using Jaylib, and compiling to WebAssembly to make websites with embedded scripting. Otherwise, yeah, mostly as a replacement for bash/perl/Python -- https://github.com/andrewchambers/janet-sh makes it strictly better than bash I think.
https://bauble.studio/ and https://toodle.studio/ -- little art playgrounds. I've also written some about my experience making a game in Jaylib here: https://ianthehenry.com/posts/janet-game/

I also make games with janet :) here's how it can look: https://youtu.be/k1FMk7Js2Rw
Caleb Figgers:
I'm working on a TUI text editor that will one day replace vim once and for all in the hearts and minds of millions of programmers the world over. :)
Or, failing that, just be a way for me to learn (and be slightly more ergonomic than vim on my Android phone)
It's implemented entirely in Janet (+ Jermbox, a Janet wrapper around Termbox Next). Check it out, if you like: https://www.github.com/CFiggers/joule-editor
andrewchambers:
I've implemented a package manager in janet, a website and done a bunch of scripting
so it is fairly versatile imo
sogaiu:
one particularly nice part of janet is the built-in peg support.
i used that piece recently to turn .edn into .jdn (as line comments differ between the two) as part of a project for providing an alternative dsl for expressing tree-sitter grammars.
