    Or more precisely, my little site maker... It is a personal tool that I thoroughly enjoyed making, and enjoy using to write my website . A caveat before any more; nobody was supposed to promote this insanity. Like, terrible things have been done involving inotify and xdotool. But. It showed up on HN some months ago. That too while it was still, shall we say, fermenting. It got "done" some time thence, and of course one could not let the half-past just be. So here we are, for better or worse. Thank you HN mods for helping me repost! _\\// The README explains all, animated GIFs and…

    Hey developers I think we're tired of copying and pasting our codes and sharing links using PasteBin, GithubGist, or Slack. What if you could share the codes without copying the link and share them right from your favorite editor? That was the motivation for creating TurboGist. Right now, it's still in the MVP stage, and I'm trying to gather feedback from developers like you. It's available as a beta in the VS Code Extension store. Can you guys check this out? It'd help me a lot. You don't need to pay any penny, 100% FREE. However, I'm working on introducing a self-hosted feature. Besides, a…

    Hi HN, I'm happy to finally ship my first development project: http://favsi.com. Favsi is a site to share lists of random stuff. Things you probably wouldn't post anywhere else. Like: • Favorite cheesy ninja movies • Favorite original NES games • Favorite songs to sing in the car There's been lots of list-type apps cropping up lately: Bagcheck, ListGeeks, Listry, and probably others. Mini-trend? Some Background: By trade, I've been mostly a business guy [shudders] at startups, but have been working to change that for awhile now. I started learning Ruby a few times last year but had trouble…

    This was submitted before but it didn't seem to get much attention because I don't think the title was very descriptive and the submitter was brand new. I almost didn't click it but once I did I thought the project was pretty awesome and had a lot of promise. Hope this doesn't violate the rules, I have no horse in the game, but the creator is here on the site so hopefully he'll be able to answer your questions.

    Hi HN, I built VaporVibe as a fun April Fools hack: https://vapor.influme.ai/ It auto-generates short video demos for your side projects. Just drop in a GitHub repo and a public URL where it’s hosted, and it creates a clean video walkthrough of the app. It’s designed for the kind of projects that are 90% vibe, 10% code, and not quite ready for launch… but still deserve a trailer. Example project: https://github.com/cndn/recipe-discovery-playbook — vibe-coded, demo in the README. Would love any feedback on UX, performance, or ideas on what else to support.…

    Hello everyone, I'm excited to share the project vx.dev with you all. Inspired by the technical insights and experiences from v0.dev, we've now managed to seamlessly integrate the experience of converting text and images into UI code with the familiar GitHub issue/PR/code-review process. Additionally, this project offers further customization of prompts and the choice of suitable AI models. This integration not only enhances productivity but also opens up new possibilities for developers looking for flexible, budget-friendly, and customizable solutions.

    For Labor Day I decided to play with OpenAI APIs and try to ship something (a prototype, a blog post, anything really). Whenever I launched a side project (e.g: https://www.probarsearch.com/, https://ff.bitlet.org/) I realized how bad I am at marketing or even at mentioning my the project to friends/social. I noticed that most of the traffic we got was coming from reddit/HN comments we made where it was reasonable to mention the sideproject/business. Given that, I tried to use OpenAI APIs to do exactly that, given a business/project…

    Hey HN - I'm Mason, and I'm excited to share a fun side project I've been working on recently: Repo Roast. For me, Github often feels like a serious (and sometimes soulless) place. I built this website to showcase the human, silly side of developers. Repo Roast is built on top of LLM-powered GitHub analytics tooling we’re developing internally at Merit Systems [0]. One of the historically cited weak points for LLMs has been their sense of humor. I found that with the right prompt, at scale, they mostly can _identify_ humor pretty well. We experimented with a couple of different models to…

    I’ve spent the last 2.5 months building a product that runs LLM-powered code reviews on my pull requests — and I just launched it. The tool is built specifically for solo developers. You install it on your repo, trigger a scan by creating a pull request, and it leaves structured review comments using OpenAI under the hood. Funnily enough, I used the dev version of this app to review its own pull requests while building it. It helped me spot bugs, simplify structure, and keep quality high — all with minimal need for another human in the loop. Things I want to try out in the next months : -…

    Hi Hacker News! My friend and I [1] would like to share with you something we did this week-end. We really like the idea of game jams like the Ludum Dare, and we’d like to participate, but it’s often complicated for us, as we are often limited by the rules inherent to this kind of competition: we have to be available at specific dates, and the rules doesn’t always work for us. For example: if you want to participate as a team in a Ludum Dare compo, you have 72h instead of 48h, and you are not required to publish your code. We realized that what we really like is: - To work together. - The…

    http://www.fullstack360.com I am working on this site. The idea behind the FullStack360 is to be a sort of Dribbble for software developers where coders and programmers can post projects that they are working on. Other products like LinkedIn don't offer an adequate place for devs to post their projects and get attention from recruiters and other non-tech people. Also, I am having a meetup with my friend at the Hive55 coworking space on April 2nd from 7:00pm to 9:00pm. We will showcase two or three projects selected from this site. If you are in the NYC area and would like to…
