    Meet bumpy - your new favourite open-source versioning, release, and changelog tool. Especially useful in monorepos with many related packages, but also great to use in simpler setups. This is a modern successor to the popular changesets tool, used by many open source projects. While changesets is great, and I love the file-based bump+changelog workflow, the project has hundreds of open issues, many of which have been open for multiple years. Bumpy fixes most of the important ones (over 120+ by my last count), and adds some new features as well. It also greatly simplifies things, so it…

    A lot of vendors and open-source projects shared guidance on protecting users from downloading malicious NPM packages after the Shai-Hulud campaign — but almost nothing focused on protecting maintainers from accidentally (or maliciously) publishing them. So we built a small tool that continuously monitors your NPM packages and automatically unpublishes any version not produced by your CI workflow.

    Hi HN, I built Hypermod to help developers automate large-scale code migrations. If you've ever had to upgrade dependencies, refactor thousands of files, or apply the same fix across multiple repos, you know how painful and time-consuming it can be. Hypermod makes this process faster and more reliable by combining static analysis, AI-powered codemods, and GitHub automation. Why I Built This I've spent years working with large codebases where upgrading dependencies or migrating frameworks was a nightmare—lots of manual work, brittle scripts, and coordination across teams. Existing tools like…

    I kept seeing people making macOS apps for their one-off use cases and automations. I thought surely the hassle of paying for an Apple dev account and fighting with code signing and notarization would be a deterrent for most people. Viberunner is a container environment that lets you build macOS apps with simple prompts. You can run the apps in a new tab, a new window, or even as a system menu bar app. You can create things like: - a clipboard manager - an image redactor - a note-taking tool that saves a daily note to a folder on your desktop - a desktop organizer that cleans up your…

    Late last year, I was digging into some dependency-related tech debt, and struggling with how long it takes to run pnpm's introspection commands like 'pnpm why' in a medium-size monorepo. So I started working on a simple static site generator that would let me view the output of these expensive commands all at once, to make problems clearly visible instead of requiring deep exploration one at a time. Once I had that working, I realized I had enough data to add ticket tracking. It uses the data it gathers from the package manager to keep Linear or GitHub issues updated. And by auto-assigning…

    Nixite generates a bash script to automatically install all your Linux software unattendedly. Nixite prevents prompts and picks the best installation method. Nixite supports Ubuntu-based systems and Arch-based systems. Nixite installs a nixite-updater script to update all package managers and software at once.

    Hi all! I've built a small tool to visualize how inefficient `docker pull` is, in preparation for standing up a new Docker registry + transport. It's bugged me for a while that updating one dependency with Docker drags along many other changes. It's a huge problem with Docker+robotics. With dozens or hundreds of dependencies, there's no "right" way to organize the layers that doesn't end up invalidating a bunch of layers on a single dependency update - and this is ignoring things like compiled code, embedded ML weights, etc. Even worse, many robotics deployments are on terrible internet,…

    Hi HN, We are Anil and Yilmaz from the team behind Notifier. Notifier is a macOS menu bar app that keeps track of your favorite packages and notifies you whenever a new version is available. You can currently track packages from npm, pub.dev, packagist, OpenUPM and the Unity asset store. We plan to add more package repositories very soon. Notifier can also watch your dependency manifest files to make it simple to keep track of the packages you use in your projects. We have many new features planned such as tracking software and SDK versions. We want to offer HN an early look at Notifier in…

    Hey all I've been working on a personal project I wanted to share with the community: CR - Mac Helper. It's a collection of shell scripts designed to help you manage, clean, and optimise our Macs :) https://github.com/caioricciuti/cr-mac-helper As a data engineer/developer, I've accumulated a ton of apps and tools on my Mac over the years, and I was tired of manual cleanup and maintenance. So, I built this to automate the process. Here's what CR - Mac Helper can do: App Cleanup: Thoroughly remove applications and their associated files. Path Management: Fix broken…

    We're two engineers that got fed up with context switching. Why do we need to do a git push, open a browser tab, wait for some task to actually start, bite nails (or read HackerNews) for 10 minutes or more while dependencies are being installed for the 100th time and finally end up with an invalid YAML error. And for some reason this usually happens in the final stage of the pipeline leading up to the inevitable git commits "Fixed", "Fixed again", "Test", "Really fixed this time". We can do better. We set out to build Zippy. A CI/CD system that works from your terminal. No context…

    Hi HN, I built a tool [1] that resolves breaking changes when you upgrade npm packages. I know keeping my dependencies updated is good hygiene but I really have no motivations to do them. The time to fix breaking changes then validate them makes the ROI lopsided. Automating these helps me reduce the barrier to a good habit. It works on typescript and tsx projects. BYOK (bring your own GPT-4 key) for the codegen. MIT license. How does it work? - Bumps the package version, builds your project, and then runs tsc over your project to understand what breaks - Uses ts-morph [2] to create an AST of…
