24 alternatives to AWS Builder Center
Hi HN, I built Build4Me to address a trust problem in diaspora-funded construction projects. Many families send money home to build houses but have no reliable way to verify that work is actually being done. Photos can be reused, progress exaggerated, or projects abandoned after funds are sent. Build4Me introduces milestone-based funding where each construction milestone must be verified before funds are released. The system verifies progress using: - geotagged photo capture - GPS location verification - AI image analysis - duplicate image detection It runs on serverless AWS architecture…

FoundersWall▲35I used to be just a blogger. Now I build internet products, still without code, using AI, design, and taste. I was building in public on X for last 2 months. And honestly, I got tired of how it became performative and started to feel fake. I shipped 2 products. Both failed to get any real traction. I kept sneaking into popular builders’ profiles, hoping to learn how they do it. One thing I kept seeing everywhere, product launch directories. I thought here is the scope. So I started building one. Same UI like the rest. Nothing special. Suddenly one day when it was half built, I realized…

Buildstash▲168Hey HN! We just launched open sign up on Buildstash. It's a platform for managing and sharing software binaries. I'd worked across game dev, mobile apps, and agencies - and found every team had no real system for managing their built binaries. Often just dumped in a shared folder (if someone remembered!). No system for versioning, keeping track of who'd signed off what when, or what exact build had gone to a client, etc. Existing tools out there for managing build artifacts are really focused on package repository management. But miss all the other types of software not being deployed that…

To my knowledge, this is the first formally verified implementation of a 3D constructive solid geometry (CSG) operation: mesh intersection, implemented in Lean 4 and verified against a concise specification that pins down the surface of the resulting mesh exactly and guarantees practical well-formedness conditions on the triangulation. This project is also an experiment in avoiding having to trust AI-generated code. A human reviewer only needs to read 93 lines of formal specification and run the Lean checker to certify the correctness of the kernel, skipping the intricate 1000+ lines of…

Two years ago, I started building this site that allows people to document their learning and progress in real time. The idea is: as you learn new things, you document your progress piece by piece, creating a collection of failures, breakthroughs, and knowledge. Along the way, your friends can cheer you on, and the community can give you tips and feedback. Over time, we'll create a public collection on how different problems were solved. With each progress, the site prompts you to reflect on questions like, "If you could go back in time, what do you wish you had known?" This was my first web…

Hi HN! I'm KV - my friends and I have been working on Construct. A simple way to build tools without writing a single line of code. We started working on this because we'd always hear friends talking about "I wish this app would exist" or pitching us their startup ideas. Today, Construct can build simple tools that are powerful. Most of our beta users build various kinds of trackers or analysis applications for things they care about (CRMs for startup founders, macro tracking for gym bros). We've also recently added file and image uploads. Unfortunately, Construct is not yet connected to the…
