Products that do what I vibe coded an open-source Go app to back up DBs using Docker labels does
Hey HN, I'm excited to share Label Backup, an open-source project I developed. This tool, written in Go, automates backups for databases running in your Docker containers using simple container labels. I built this with vibe coding. How it Works: - You add a few descriptive labels to your containers that run databases you want to back up (e.g., backup.enabled=true, backup.type=postgres, backup.cron="0 2 * * *", backup.conn=..., or backup.type=volume, backup.path=/my/data). - Label Backup, running as a separate container, automatically discovers these, then schedules and performs…

Hi! I took a cheap $25 walmart phone and put a static server on it? Why? Just for a fun weekend project. I used Claude Code for most of the setup. I had a blast. It's running termux, andronix, nginx, cloudflared and even a prometheus node exporter. Here's the site: https://walmartphone.stetsonblake.com/

Hi all, I'm currently validating an idea for a new BaaS solution which will allow you to build and host a web app backend without writing a single line of code. The app is called BackendLab and the landing page is here: https://www.backendlab.app/ The idea is that it allows you to define your database models by specifying what fields to include and BackendLab automatically creates a CRUD API which you can start using straight away. We've just launched the public beta and are looking for early adopters (free of charge, just looking for some feedback on the tool) Looking forward…

Hi HN - I’m Peter, here with Max (hmaxdml), and we’re building DBOS Go, an open-source Go library for durable workflows, backed by Postgres. https://github.com/dbos-inc/dbos-transact-golang DBOS workflows make your programs durable by automatically checkpointing their state to Postgres. If your program crashes or fails, all workflows seamlessly resume from their last completed step when your program restarts. This durability makes workflows useful for solving many different problems, including: - Operating an AI agent, or anything that connects to an unreliable or…

I built Vibe Remote because I wanted to code from my bed or the park without lugging a laptop around. With tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini-cli, we don't need a full IDE for every task anymore. Vibe Remote turns your phone into a powerful remote console. Why it’s more than just a chat: * AI Agent Hub: Zero-config support for Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode. * Built-in Web Preview: View your localhost services directly inside the app. Essential for UI debugging. * Full Session Management: Start a task on your Mac, grab your phone, and monitor progress from a cafe. * Dev Ops: Manage…

Hey HN, I posted Out Plane here last week. Wanted to share an update because I've been shipping a lot. I started this because deploying side projects was killing my motivation. Build something fun over a weekend, then waste two days on Dockerfiles, nginx, and SSL. So I built what I wanted — connect GitHub, push code, get a URL. Done. Since December I've added managed PostgreSQL, managed Redis with RedisInsight built in, Dockerfile auto-detection that pre-fills your config, real-time metrics, and scale to zero — no traffic means no bill. Per-second pricing, not hourly. Same Next.js + Postgres…
