    Understanding any GitHub repository is tough, especially a big one - this project aims to make it a tad bit easier by giving the listener a primer + some details on the specific repository. For some people (like me) - audio/visual medium is more easily understandable. So, I hope this project is helpful to some of them. This project was inspired by https://gitdiagram.com - so check it out as well, and maybe use them together for better understanding. Future plans: 1. To add more voices and let users choose most natural one (decide between OpenAI/Microsoft Speech) 2. Custom…

    Hey HN, We (a small team of engineers and a designer) have been building Gistr to solve a personal pain point: we consume a lot of content daily—articles, videos, podcasts—and often struggle to retain or revisit the most meaningful parts. Most bookmarking tools felt too passive or generic. So we made Gistr a tool that lets you save links and capture "gists" (notes, insights, highlights, AI summaries) on top of them. It supports YouTube, articles, PDFs, and more. You can keep things private or share your gists publicly, almost like AI-enhanced social bookmarks. We’re bootstrapped and still in…

    00's called, they want their RSS feeds back. I was looking at my growing Github gist collection when a sudden urge to blog and make a name for myself "by not programming" struck. Part way into implementing my oh so special static website generator it occurred to me that, quite frankly, Github gists is a pretty decent publishing platform. I mean, it gives you reasonably extended markdown with previews, heck I could even write in org-mode, has comments, follower - followee relationship, extended search with filters, check out locally and push your edits. Did someone say "edit button"? Thus the…

    Hey, we're Phil and Ian, the founders of Scribbler. We're huge podcast fans, but found we never had enough time to soak it all in. So, we built Scribbler - a tool that leverages GPT to condense podcast episodes into bite-sized summaries for when life's too busy. Now, we can catch the best bits from any episode, discover new shows, and best of all, stop wasting valuable time figuring out what's worth listening to and what's not. We hope you'll find it useful!
