   Local development with .local domains and HTTPSfree tier, from $8/mo▲84

   Hi HN! I'm Jarek, and I've built this tool that allows publishing .local domains on the local network using mDNS. It also has a reverse proxy that handles HTTPS termination and port forwarding. I'm working on adding more features, like an index page with all available domains or allowing proxy redirects, so you could redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback!

    JavaScript as a Database – Serverless Platform▲20

    Hi HN! I’d like to share with you my project: JSDB. Two months ago I had this thought while reviewing a PR on a web application. What if I didn’t have to write code to communicate with my backend or database? It would be fun to just use arrays and objects like you normally do in javascript and have things magically save. That weekend I hacked together something that used proxies and classes to ‘magically’ send data to your backend when you assign or access properties in an object or array. Using the same API you already know. This means you can save data like this: items[x] = {a:2,b:false}…
