   Flox 1.0 – Open-source dev env as code with Nix▲382

It's a simple REST API that lets you create and update progress bars from anywhere. The same progress bar can be viewed as terminal output (with ANSI colors), in a browser, or consumed as JSON. I'm actually tracking this HN discussion with pbar. The progress bar increases with each comment - watch it live as we discuss! Web: https://pbar.io/Y8yg3BG Terminal: curl…
