A year ago, my co-founder launched Desktop Docs here on HN. It's a Mac app we built with Electron that uses CLIP embeddings to search photos and videos locally with natural language. We got positive feedback from HN and our first paying customers, but the app was almost 1GB and clunky to use. TLDR; rebuilding in Rust was the right move. So we rewrote the app with Rust and Tauri and here are the results: - App size is 83% smaller: 1GB → 172MB - DMG Installer is 70% smaller: 232MB → 69.5MB - Indexing files is faster: A 38-minute video now indexes in ~3 minutes instead of 10-14 minutes -…

Hi HN, Last time I showed free-music-demixer, which people seemed to enjoy. It was a static website with a Javascript + WASM module to perform music demixing (or music source separation) using an AI model UMX-L (Open-Unmix) running client-side in the browser. Since then, I have overhauled the project and made several improvements: - The demixing/separation quality is higher now, since I implemented the missing post-processing step - Memory usage is lower now by performing a custom segmented inference with a streaming LSTM, which should allow larger tracks (or, dare I say,…

Hello HN, not many will know what this tool is about, but it's launch day and I always dreamed of posting on HN. Let's start! This is a tool for people using eurorack gear. For synth people. What is cool about my tool is that I show the signal flow with a graph. Here's the official press text: After a decade of stagnation in this space we are excited to present patcher.xyz: the modern way to manage everything modular. It’s a tool for professionals, enthusiasts, and casual wigglers. Novadays artists must develop their own means of taking notes, often on paper, since there is no common format…

I recently launched my side project I've been building with Meteor js over the past few months. It uses the Soundcloud, Hypemachine, and exfm public APIs to pull in your 'favorite' tracks from each of your usernames provided. It's gives you a unified playlist of all your favorite tracks across the different sites. Audio is being played using the HTML5 Audio API, so it currently only works in Chrome and Safari. Built with: * Meteor JS – http://Meteor.com * Bourbon Sass Mixin Library – http://bourbon.io * Spin.js – http://fgnass.github.io/spin.js/ *…

Hey HN i’m a platform engineer and my day job I mainly focus on kubernetes clusters and terraform with the occasional C#, Typescript when building services, so this could well be completely out of my depth. Jolt started as an experiment to see whether I could build my own network at all. I’ll also be honest that most of this code was agentically written. However the high level decisions and architecture were mine based on research, experimentation, trial and error. Canary testing was one of the consequences of that when you build this way you need something slapping your AI-driven confidence…

I'm a 23yo solo dev from Spain with a passion for UI/UX and I built Gramola, a music dock for macOS that is there when you need it. No more opening a music app to change what you're listening to; just move your mouse to the edge of the screen, and all your music is there in a gorgeous CoverFlow style, or ready to be instantly searched. Fully usable with a mouse, but also fully usable with keyboard, accessibility built in, and both Spotify and Apple Music support as well as local tracks via the Music app. Free to try for 7 days! I would love to know what you think :) Please feel free to…

Hello HN, I’m a hobby music producer with a changing studio setup and got tired of losing track of what’s patched where (especially after gear swaps). I built PatchMyGear, a website to map audio setups / routing and generate a cable list + wiring checklist, save / load locally. (no signup) Let me know what you think. Happy holidays!

https://shelf-bookmarks.stupidlabs.lol I have been using raindrop.io for years now, and it has worked perfectly for me. Seriously, no issues. But, bookmarks are something that are a bit too personal... they allow profiling you. And I don't want anyone doing that to me, Hence, this app. It's 100% offline and free. It's built in Rust using Tauri, is roughly 6MB only, is beautiful to look at, and packs more features than commercial ones. Make sure to checkout the "All features" page as well from the homepage. Also, it has an inbuilt api server (configurable) so you can automate as…

I love music and I'm always trying to discover new music that I can enjoy. In the past years I was using a fairly tedious process of organizing the music albums (or DJ sets, radio shows) in a few lists: - Want to Listen - Listened - Listened (and liked) I wanted to keep track of these lists, what I discovered each month/year and share all this activity and lists with my friends. For that, I was using a combination of tools that weren't made exactly for this job (Discogs+Spotify+IM apps), resulting in a cumbersome experience. So a few months ago I started this hobby project, with the…
