    Dear HN, I am Riwaj, the cofounder of dstack.ai (https://github.com/dstackai). A few months ago, we built an online service that allows users to publish data visualizations from Python or R. The idea was to build a tool that did not require additional programming or front-end development for publishing data visualizations. Such a code can be invoked from either Jupyter notebook, RMarkdown, Python, or R scripts. Once the data is pushed, it can be accessed via a browser. Open-sourcing dstack: During our customer discovery phase, we realized that dstack.ai should integrate a lot…

    It's very early days for the project, but I wanted to share it to see if there is interest. It is the final piece of the FastAPI server-side rendering stack I started building with FastHX and htmy (the two dependencies of this project besides FastAPI). Think of it as a more powerful and convenient alternative to tools like FastHTML, powered by FastAPI (without any modifications). I hope you'll like it.

    Hi HN, I'm the author of FastMCP, the most popular Python framework for building MCP servers. I've been really excited about MCP Apps for a while. I think letting a server ship a fully interactive UI directly into the conversation is one of the most compelling additions to the protocol. I wanted to make this a first-class experience in FastMCP, but I kept getting stuck on what it actually means for a Python framework to integrate with a frontend feature. The JavaScript ecosystem has extraordinary tooling for this. I didn't want to build a worse version of it just to stay in Python. What…

    I built FastAPI-MCP as an open-source library, and recently had to completely refactor it, abandoning FastMCP wrappers in favor of the low-level MCP SDK. The new version gives more control over which endpoints are exposed, supports complex request bodies, and allows flexible routing options. I wrote about the technical journey and lessons learned here: https://medium.com/@miki_45906/advanced-mcps-in-python-how-t... Looking for feedback and contributors who are interested in MCPs!

    Hi, my name is Nikita Sobolev, I am a CPython core dev, Django Software Foundation member, and maintainer of countless Python / Django opensource tools. Now I am happy to present to you my new project. Docs: https://django-modern-rest.rtfd.io/ Code: https://github.com/wemake-services/django-modern-rest/ Features: - No AI slop, but built for the LLM era. - Blazingly fast. - Supports Django >= 4.2 - Supports `pydantic2`, `msgspec`, `attrs`, `dataclasses`, `TypedDict` as model schemas, but not bound to any of these libraries. - Supports async Django…

    We were using django-easy-audit to track CRUD and API events in Django. The problem: every action meant an extra database write, which slowed transactions, increased infra costs, and left us with audit tables that weren’t great for analytics. I built django-activity-audit (PyPI) to fix this: - Extends Django’s logging system with custom AUDIT and API levels. - Captures CRUD + API request/response events as structured JSON logs. - Vector tails the logs and ships them into ClickHouse. - Grafana makes them queryable and visual. This removes the extra DB writes, gives structured data ready…

    I built this library because I kept rewriting the same fetch wrapper for every project. Each time, I needed the same core features: - Make fetch throw errors to integrate smoothly with libraries like TanStack Query - Add sensible defaults to the Fetch API, like a base URL and authentication headers - Validate responses for type safety when OpenAPI isn’t an option I also wanted the library to feel exactly like using fetch — no new API to learn, and no extra friction for my teammates. While there are other great options out there, I found many were either too rigid or too bulky. Doesn’t it…

    Hi HN - Marius (mbuleandra) and I built Restly as a side project. Restly generates a user-friendly tutorial against any OpenAPI spec. While building public-facing APIs, we found that writing these guides by hand took a lot of work. Many OpenAPI specs were too large to send to GPT-4 / Claude directly, and even when we could send them, we experienced lost-in-the-middle and hallucination issues. The project is very alpha but works against the Vocode API when we specify well-defined goals. Let us know your thoughts; we would love your contribution to the project! [1]…

    Hi HN! This is an early proof of concept of a branchable, versioned OLTP + OLAP database that runs on a single, open copy of your data in object storage. If you are familiar with Databricks' LTAP (https://www.databricks.com/company/newsroom/press-releases/d...) announcement from June, you can think of this as aspiring to be a fully open source, Apache 2.0 LTAP alternative with additional data versioning/auditability guarantees that enable audit, as_of queries, and (eventually) revert straight out of the box. How it works: 1. Writes land in vanilla postgres…

    Hi HN -- Since Anthropic announced the Model Context Protocol (MCP) last week [1], I've been excited about giving Claude new capabilities through my custom servers. But while MCP is powerful, implementing the protocol correctly requires a lot of low-level boilerplate code. I found myself wanting something like FastAPI - a high-level framework that would let me focus on building features, not servers. After some hacking, I'm sharing FastMCP: a Pythonic framework for building MCP servers. FastMCP uses decorators to transform normal functions into MCP tools, resources, templates, and prompts,…

    Scraping modern websites has become a massive headache. You basically have two choices: pay for an expensive API like Firecrawl/Browserbase, or run a fleet of headless Chrome instances that eat 1GB of RAM per page and still get blocked by Cloudflare. I built Draco to fix this. It’s a fast, single-binary web scraper written in Rust. You point it at a URL, and it spits out perfectly clean Markdown or structured JSON for LLMs. The secret sauce is that it doesn't just boot a browser for every request. It uses a tiered escalation engine: Tier 1 (Stealth Fetch): Draco uses a custom…

    Hi HN, I built ast-visualizer.com because I wanted a way to visualize the architecture/structure of a Python repo before dived into the code. Most tools tell you what the code does; I wanted to see how it's built. The Problem: Onboarding onto a large codebase is a nightmare. LLMs help with single functions, but they struggle to show you the "God Objects," circular dependencies, or high-complexity hotspots across 50+ files. What it does: Dependency Graph: Visualizes imports and file complexity to find architectural bottlenecks. Radial AST Heatmaps: Maps individual files and color-codes…
