Hey all, wanted to share my recent weekend hack project. I wanted to improve upon the existing space for looking up information about IP addresses and ASNs. The backend is written in Rust and pulls BGP data every 8 hours from the RIPE RIS project to build up a routing table and also adds geolocation information. The frontend is using React and Tailwind. Would love any feedback or suggestions on what to improve.

I'm working at Sauce Labs on a fast MITM proxy. If you are using mitmproxy, Fiddler or Charles proxy in your job I believe you'll find it invaluable. Forwarder 1.1 is now available, complete with a Grafana Dashboard for effortless monitoring. We are committed to making it great. I welcome your feedback. Cheers Michał

CRProxy is a new reverse web proxy service. We have a generous free plan that includes the ability to use custom domains and semi-custom sub-domains. We have reasonably priced plans with good bandwidth and no additional usage charges. Please give it a try and let me know what you think. Thank you, David

Hi HN — solo developer here. I built this tool ~4 years ago purely to solve my own frustration with CORS and repeated proxy setup. The idea was intentionally boring: just prefix a URL and get control over the request and response. Somehow it grew to serving billions of requests per day, including usage by companies and universities. I’m sharing it here mainly to: - get technical feedback - learn what people would actually use a proxy like this for - understand what I should simplify or remove

Hello HN, for the past couple of months I've been working on Routify and wanted to share the progress made so far and hopefully get your opinion/feedback on it. Routify is a global serverless API gateway which handles routing, authentication, rate limiting, load balancing, monitoring, transformation etc (with more coming soon). Routify makes it easier to manage and secure public APIs. It's distributed across many regions globally and acts as a proxy between your clients and your services. You can configure it through the interface in a matter of minutes (no code required). There are…

wsgrok▲7I built it for myself because ngrok didn't let me add one more domain unless I paid $12 more. I probably should've looked for alternatives before building my own, but my grudge got in the way . Once I started, I wanted to make it better than the other options. Silly, I know. No one probably cares. I plan to open source it sometime next year because I’ve got other projects to finish first. It's free until I deplete my cloud credits, then it will switch to a tier-based model with a free option.

I’d been watching River (Pingora-based) and hoping it would mature, because I think Rust + Pingora (from Cloudflare) is a really solid foundation for a future-proof reverse proxy. Progress stayed quiet, so I started building the “practical reverse proxy layer” on top of Pingora myself: config/routing + operational defaults + a way to plug in extra request/response logic without patching the core. Sentinel: https://github.com/raskell-io/sentinel River: https://github.com/memorysafety/river Quick try: curl -fsSL…

Razix▲5Hey HN! I'm Aditya, and today I'm excited to share Razix. Razix lets you configure custom domains for multi-tenant platforms. It also provides an API so you can integrate it and let your B2B users add their custom domains. It's special to me because this is my first SaaS whose core feature is written in Rust. While building Razix, I: - Created my first reverse proxy server - Learned to issue Let's Encrypt certificates using instant-acme - Learned how TLS and SSL work - And much more All with minimal use of AI.
