/g/ makes useful software on occasion for example. after 4chan pioneered webm as looping gif replacement (long before imgur doing the gifv thing) they made webmcam and webm4retards for example. The latter by its mere existence also highlighted github's overzealous application of community policies.

A bunch of indie games started their life there too.

And then there are derivative and mashup works like fanart, translations.

I only visit a few boards, so i'm probably missing a lot.
