Products that do what An open source generator for complex SDKs does

Hi It's Logan (op) and David, we are launching our first open source Python SDK generator with other languages to come :) We built this because we believe that the OpenAPI Generator project is a mess and simply doesn't work for most users (us included). Additionally, proprietary generators miss the mark for complex use cases, and restrict developers from doing what they do best: writing code. On top of all that they force you into proprietary configuration layers for many desirable features which increases vendor lock in and pulls you further away from your API spec as the source of truth.…

    Hi everyone! I just released the Practical Python Projects book! (https://practicalpython.yasoob.me) I am happy to announce the first version as a release candidate. I have poured a lot of love into writing this book and would love to hear what you guys think. (A limited 100% off and discount coupons at the end) This is not a pure beginner book. The book does assume some background Python knowledge. You need to know the basics like methods, functions, classes, and such. If I use something that is not typically covered in beginner Python books, I will explain it before I use it.…

    This is a little project I've been working on for a while in order to better learn Python. Although IRC may not exactly be the most exciting medium, I still find it to be fun and useful, this interest lead me to writing a bot. In doing this I realized that what would actually be more interesting would be if I had a framework. There may already be such a thing, certainly there are IRC libraries, but I don't know if they're well-suited to deploying bots. At any rate if for no other reason than the fact that I am relatively new to programming and eager to learn I decided to build a framework.…

    I’ve been working on Code2Docs, an open-source CLI tool that helps developers automatically generate inline documentation (docstrings + comments) for Python code using AI. It’s built to solve a common problem I’ve faced (and seen often in teams): We code by "vibe" — fast iterations, minimal docs, and then forget what the logic was months later. Code2Docs helps bridge that gap by documenting as you go — without breaking your flow. Right now it supports function-level documentation. Planned features include: - README.md generation for projects - API endpoint docs - Database schema…

    Hey HN, I wanted to share with you what I've been working on for the past few months – the Splunk Developer Platform[1]. We released our Python SDK[2] back in August, but just last week we released our Java[3] and JavaScript[4] ones, and the JS SDK was the one I've been working on. It was a great learning experience for me – first real foray into JavaScript and Node (the SDK works in both the browser and Node), and was a lot of fun to try different things out releasing it. I ended up building on a couple of open source libraries (and contributing back). We are building out Splunk's developer…

    Hi, I'm working on a project that regroups all best AI (AIaaS) from different providers (GCP, AWS, Azure, DeepL, etc.) in one API (https://github.com/edenai/edenai-apis). I've got asked the question : why aren't you regrouping Open Source models (instead of proprietary APIs) into one repo? Well because it doesn't make sens to deploy and maintain large pytorch (or other framework) AI models (especially for document parsing, image and video moderation or speech recognition) in every solution that wants AI capabilities. So using APIs makes way more sens. Deployed OpenSource…

    Google Docs for Python basically. For the past 4 months, I’ve been working on a full-stack project I’m really proud of called PyTogether; a real-time collaborative Python IDE designed with beginners in mind (think Google Docs, but for Python). It’s meant for pair programming, tutoring, or just learning Python together. It’s completely free. No subscriptions, no ads, nothing. Just create an account, make a group, and start a project. Has proper code-linting, live drawings for note-taking or teaching, voice chat, an extremely intuitive UI, autosaving, and live cursors. There are no limitations…

    Hi HN - Marius (mbuleandra) and I built Restly as a side project. Restly generates a user-friendly tutorial against any OpenAPI spec. While building public-facing APIs, we found that writing these guides by hand took a lot of work. Many OpenAPI specs were too large to send to GPT-4 / Claude directly, and even when we could send them, we experienced lost-in-the-middle and hallucination issues. The project is very alpha but works against the Vocode API when we specify well-defined goals. Let us know your thoughts; we would love your contribution to the project! [1]…

    Hey everyone, we just released a new version of our Infrastructure as Code Python SDK that now runs entirely on your machine - no account required. LaunchFlow extends OpenTofu to provide features like multi-environment support [1], autoconfigured infrastructure clients [2], and API release management [3]. Our goal is to provide a Python-native infrastructure toolkit that handles everything from automating your infrastructure to using it in your application code. You can use our library of preconfigured OpenTofu modules to add GCP / AWS infrastructure to your app with just a few lines of…

    Library makes requests asynchronously across models, so you can spend a lot of $$ quickly if you want XD. But seriously I hope this enables folks to create and run evals (especially safety ones) a lot easier than before.

    Hi hn! I wanted to share a simple JS script I built that uses Anthropic's Claude AI to auto-generate OpenAPI specs from code. Keeping OpenAPI specs in sync is tedious and error-prone. I was wasting too much time manually updating YAMLs. To fix this, I created a script that leverages Claude to parse source code and produce OpenAPI specs, no annotations needed. It's a gist you can copy/paste into your project: https://gist.github.com/hotkartoffel/2d2ca5a5a4ace98ca7fe87f... Feed it your code and Claude handles inferring the OpenAPI objects. I've tested it on JavaScript…

    Hi HN! I am excited to share Hadmean with you all for feedback and early adoption. What: Hadmean is an open-source, no-code internal tool generator. Why: Most internal tool generators make you build from the ground up i.e you get a blank canvas, drag and drop and wire components to satisfy your business requirement. This I believe has many problems. - They require some technical know-how. - They require some learning curve. - They require time to build and maintain. - You duplicate a lot of business logic already in your database. How: Hadmean attempts internal tool generation with a new…

    Hello HN, Pietro here! I've been really excited to see the recent buzz around MCP and all the cool things people are building with it. Though, the fact that you can use it only through desktop apps really seemed wrong and prevented me for trying most examples, so I wrote a simple client, then I wrapped into some class, and I ended up creating a python package that abstracts some of the async uglyness. You need: * one of those MCPconfig JSONs * 6 lines of code and you can have an agent use the MCP tools from python. The structure is simple: an MCP client creates and manages the connection and…

    Hi HN, I built Weft over the last two weeks of Christmas break. I was teaching my kids Python and noticed the lack of interactivity in some of their learning experiences. The feedback loop was too long. I wanted to provide them with an experience similar to Bret Victor's concepts on Learnable Programming; i.e. an easier way to learn is to see immediately the reaction to your actions. Hence the reactivity ;) It is currently in early alpha and I’m planning to open-source the repo under AGPLv3 soon once I clean up the prototype code. I wrote up a short blog post with more details on the "Why"…

    Heya HN, after spending +1 year building an ML-driven analytics product (that didn't pan out unfortunately), I've pivoted to solving a problem my team and I found while building the previous product … why the hell is it so hard to move a model from a Jupyter notebook, to a development server, then to a production pipeline!? To solve this my team and I started the open source KitOps project under the Apache 2 license. KitOps includes the Kit CLI that uses a Kitfile manifest to create ModelKits: 1. The kit CLI packages your model, datasets, code, and configuration into an OCI compliant…

    Read an article about analyzing Garmin data with AI. Sounded great — except I didn't want to send my health data to any cloud service. So I asked Claude to write me 2-3 scripts and a dashboard. This escalated a bit. 30 days and 20$ later I have this: A local-first Garmin archive with interactive HTML dashboards, Excel exports, weather and pollen context, AES-256 encrypted token storage, and a self-healing data pipeline with 515 automated tests. Windows desktop app, no terminal needed. Nothing leaves your machine. I never wrote a line of Python. I understood the problems and made the…

    Hey HN, Over the past 10 months, my friends and I created an open source project called Rio to help Python developers build modern web apps without needing HTML, CSS, or JavaScript. Whether you're working on a simple internal tool or a complex multi-page app, Rio lets you stay in the Python ecosystem without needing to learn frontend frameworks. With Rio, the UI is defined using Python components, inspired by React and Flutter. Instead of writing HTML/CSS, you compose reusable UI elements in Python and let Rio handle rendering and state updates. The backend and frontend stay seamlessly…

    I must say I was encouraged to post my project here when I saw the positive response to this post: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3780731 Before you make any comments, please keep in mind that the project is written for fun. I'm not forcing anyone to use it. In fact, nobody should use the current unstable version in a serious project. Here is the link: http://github.com/bsg/libserv Please share your thoughts. All criticisms are welcome, even the harsh ones. p.s. The project is still a work-in-progress.
