Hey HN! I’ve written a bunch of WebSocket servers over the years to do simple things like state synchronization, WebRTC signaling, and notifying a client when a backend job was run. I realized that if I had a simple way to create a private, temporary, mini-redis that the client could talk to directly, it would save a lot of time. So we created DriftDB. In addition to the open source server that you can run yourself, we also provide https://jamsocket.live where you can use an instance we host on Cloudflare’s edge (~13ms round trip latency from my home in NY). You may have seen my…

Hey HN, I'm so happy to finally show you all this release after years of hard work. I posted the first version of EnvKey to HN back in 2017 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15330757), then went through YC in W18 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16569534). EnvKey is an end-to-end encrypted configuration and secrets manager. It protects your organization's API keys, encryption keys, credentials, and other secrets, and makes it easy to run servers, scripts, tests, and everything else with the latest config. It also helps you avoid duplication in your…

Sync-in▲79Hi HN, I’m happy to announce the public launch of Sync-in (https://sync-in.com) — a secure, open-source platform to store, sync, organize, and collaborate on files, without compromising privacy. Sync-in wasn’t born from a business plan, but from a personal need: being able to access my files remotely, share them easily with family or colleagues, and protect my data — through a clean, responsive, and user-friendly interface. Over the past 10 years, it has evolved and matured to support individual, team, and organizational workflows. You can host your own workspace to organize,…

Hi, I’m Mikkel and I’m building Async, an open-sourced developer tool that combines AI coding with task management and code review.

I’ve tried all sorts of AI tools out there including…

My weekend project sendenv is a CLI tool that lets you share environment variables securely with someone else. It is built on top of magic-wormhole which allows for safe, account-free data transfer. When you send variables using sendenv, it creates a one-time code. You give this code to the person who needs the variables. They use the code in their shell to load the variables. This is handy for quickly setting up new team members or copying local environment variables to another system. Its currently in alpha obviously, but the core functionality works (I have tested sending vaults from a…

Hey HN! I've built this cli tool to manage env variables of a project, but mostly for fun and to try out Rust and the clap crate. I had this idea when I made a big mistake and broke some production stuff because I had a very messy .env file laying around in my project. I was implementing new features for one of my projects and in my .env file I had the test database url commented out and the production one was not. Long story short, I applied migrations to the production database instead of my local test one and broke a lot of production APIs :') I wanted a tool that could easily help me…
