    Hey HN! We’re open-sourcing highlight.io (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;highlight&#x2F;highlight), a session replay and error monitoring tool. Highlight.io gives you a high-precision video-like replay of what users are doing when an error or exception occurs in your web app, along with a full-fledged error monitoring experience (similar to bugsnag, rollbar, etc..). The main value prop of highlight.io is that we help you understand the full context surrounding an error and allow you to drill down to the code path that a user invoked (i.e user clicked button X, sent network request Y, and…

    Hi HN, I'm one of the founders of s2.dev. RePlaya (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;s2-streamstore&#x2F;replaya) is a self-hosted browser session replay tool using rrweb (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rrweb-io&#x2F;rrweb). It occurred to me that a durable stream per session would be a much neater architectural foundation for much of what you'd want from such a tool. As a unique feature, it also made live tailing straightforward because the player can read from the same stream the recorder is appending to. The alternative architecture is likely an ingest firehose which is then indexed,…

    Hey HN! We're Ben and Izak, founders of Repaint (YC S23). Repaint is like Figma, but for creating real websites. It has panning, zooming, and dragging elements around. The settings closely follow html&#x2F;css. We think an open canvas is a big improvement over other website builders. Everything is easier: styling, consistency, responsiveness… But making it work was hard! We thought HN would appreciate the tech behind it: - A custom WebGL rendering engine (w&#x2F;text, shadows, blurs, gradients, & opacity groups) - A partial implementation of the css spec - A custom text editor & text shaper…
