Mobile Chat Groups for Whatsapp and Telegram▲41
I don't know how many of you remember SlackChats - a place to find Slack groups, which is now known as http://www.chitchats.co. I made this after being inspired by that site. A ton of people use Whatsapp and Telegram groups so you may find it useful to have a kind of Yellowpages for groups, to be able to find them online. The idea is to make it easy to find and connect with people that share your interests. Any and all feedback welcome. The link is: http://mobilechatgroups.com/

Mini Apps Builder▲17
Hi HN I’ve been building *Mini Apps Builder*, a small no-code tool to help people create Telegram mini apps and simple web apps without writing code. The idea came from experimenting with Telegram mini apps — they’re powerful, but the tooling can be difficult unless you’re already a developer. This project aims to simplify that with templates, basic payments, and quick deployment, so people can focus more on the idea than on setup. I’d really appreciate feedback from anyone who has built Telegram bots or mini apps, or thoughts on whether this solves a real problem. Happy to answer questions…
