Dockerized is like npx for unix tools: Run popular cli tools without installation. Example: dockerized npm init dockerized python2 somescript.py Run an older version of a tool: NODE_VERSION=15.0 dockerized node Use cases: - Maintaining multiple versions of an app - Installing without polluting host machine - Quickly run some commands you may not have installed Features: - intuitive use. Just the original command, but with 'dockerized' in front. - dockerized apps can access the current directory and read/modify files, just like native apps. - no need to know which docker image this…

Hi HN , I got tired of writing the same boilerplate over and over — DB setup, auth, routes, security — every time I built a backend. So I built Pipo360 — an AI-powered tool that generates production-ready backends in under 60 seconds, from just a plain-text description. How it works: Type what you need “Create a task management API with user auth and MongoDB” Hit Generate Get real, exportable code Auth (JWT) Database schema CRUD routes Deployable to Vercel, AWS, etc. No templates. No lock-in. Just code that works. Why it’s different: Built with Gemini AI + human supervision (to ensure real…

Hi HN! Tony & Ali here, we are super excited to introduce Venice - an open source financial data integrations platform. Our MVP is getting financial data from Plaid into your postgres database in under 5 mins. We met while building our own respective fintechs. We noticed how much developer time went into setting up and maintaining the infrastructure rather than actually building the fintech itself. In Tony’s last project Alka for instance, the engineering team spent 30%+ of time building and maintaining the data connectivity and pipeline rather than the core work of accounting. What we wish…

Hey HN, I posted Out Plane here last week. Wanted to share an update because I've been shipping a lot. I started this because deploying side projects was killing my motivation. Build something fun over a weekend, then waste two days on Dockerfiles, nginx, and SSL. So I built what I wanted — connect GitHub, push code, get a URL. Done. Since December I've added managed PostgreSQL, managed Redis with RedisInsight built in, Dockerfile auto-detection that pre-fills your config, real-time metrics, and scale to zero — no traffic means no bill. Per-second pricing, not hourly. Same Next.js + Postgres…

Hi HN, I'm Mohammed, a technical founder who loves shipping and giving back to the community. I'm open-sourcing the full-stack engine that powers my B2B product, apflow.co. What it is: A production B2B starter with a Go backend and Next.js frontend. Both are fully Dockerized with separate containers. No Vercel. No Supabase. Deploy the whole thing on a $6 VPS, or split frontend and backend across different providers. You own the infrastructure. The problem I was solving: Every SaaS starter I evaluated had the same issue: they locked me into someone else's platform. Vercel for hosting.…

Hey HN, I'm a big fan of the Postgres ecosystem and the reliability it brings to the TS stack. More often than not, the answer to "should I add another piece of infrastructure?" is "Postgres can already do that." I’ve been a long-time user of https://timgit.github.io/pg-boss, but I wanted to take the developer experience (DX) a step further for multi-step processes, especially for AI workflows. I built pg-workflows to provide a fluent API for defining durable background logic. Instead of manually stitching together disparate jobs, you can define your business logic as a clean,…

My name is Elliott. For the last three years, I’ve been building a DevOps platform on the best-in-class open source platforms (Kubernetes, Elixir, PostgreSQL, Grafana, etc.). The goal is to give engineering teams access to a modern DevOps infrastructure without needing to have a full SRE/DevOps team dedicated. It’s also open source /fair source - all the source code is here → https://github.com/batteries-included/batteries-included I shipped a public beta today and would love to hear initial reactions, thoughts, and feedback. Here are details of the platform: *…

Really, that's it: an open source and self-hostable alternative to Vercel, Render, Netlify, Laravel Cloud and the likes. Obviously simpler, but it should handle the basics pretty well: - Git-based deployments: Push to deploy from GitHub with zero-downtime rollouts and instant rollback. - Multi-language support: Python, Node.js (beta), PHP (soon)... basically anything that can run on Docker. - Environment management: Multiple environments with branch mapping and encrypted environment variables. - Real-time monitoring: Live and searchable build and runtime logs. - Team collaboration:…

We kept hitting the same wall: you clone some arbitrary repo and just want it to run without any configuration work. So we built Keystone, an open source tool that spins up a Modal sandbox, runs Claude Code inside it, and produces a working .devcontainer/ config (Dockerfile, devcontainer.json, test runner) for any git repo. We build on the dev container standard, so the output works with VS Code and GitHub Codespaces out of the box. Main use cases: reproducible dev/CI environments, self-describing repos, and safely sandboxed coding agents. Our goal is to encourage all repos to…

Hi, the main motivation of this small personal project is the ability to build Postgres-backed python apps that remain fully pip-installable despite the dependency, while saving your users any need to setup Postgres if they don't have it. It also helps me, as a developer, to not have to remember how to set up postgres, which I find is one main barrier to using it for small stuff. It's a little project of mine that may be helpful to more people. I'm curious to hear your feedback (ps. I know about SQLite, but sometimes you want/need to build against postgres)

I created Pylon to make it easier to move from hobby projects to full production apps. When I work on hobby projects, I usually use React or Next.js because they are quick to set up and easy to deploy on Vercel. For production apps, I separate the frontend and backend, then deploy the backend on AWS. But setting up a full backend on AWS can be complex and costly, especially for simple apps. Pylon is a full-stack, real-time framework that includes server-rendered React, TypeScript functions, entities, policies, real-time sync, built-in authentication, and support for background and scheduled…

I'd like to share a project I've been working on for the past few months. It's a distributed workflow engine written entirely in Go. Some highlights: * Tasks are executed in a Docker container * Can run stand-alone or distributed * Highly extensible * Able to enforce limits (CPU/RAM) per task * Web UI Would love the get your feedback on it, and find out if this could be useful.
