24 alternatives to ISONQ™
ISONQ reads PDF, DXF, DWG, and STEP files on the shop's own workstation and produces a priced quote. Nothing leaves the machine. Three modules, one job: 2D Workspace reads the drawing. PDF and DXF/DWG in. Title block, dimensions, tolerances, threads, GD&T out. 3D Workspace enriches the geometry. STEP-native. Smart Measure, section view, feature detection. Shop Management turns both into a quote. Auto-populated, priced, sent. The only system that reads the PDF and the STEP side by side — title block, dimensions, tolerances, and the 3D model in one review. Stack: Tauri, Rust end-to-end,…

Paste in my prompt to Claude Code with an embedded API key for accessing my public readonly SQL+vector database, and you have a state-of-the-art research tool over Hacker News, arXiv, LessWrong, and dozens of other high-quality public commons sites. Claude whips up the monster SQL queries that safely run on my machine, to answer your most nuanced questions. There's also an Alerts functionality, where you can just ask Claude to submit a SQL query as an alert, and you'll be emailed when the ultra nuanced criteria is met (and the output changes). Like I want to know when somebody posts about…

A year ago, my co-founder launched Desktop Docs here on HN. It's a Mac app we built with Electron that uses CLIP embeddings to search photos and videos locally with natural language. We got positive feedback from HN and our first paying customers, but the app was almost 1GB and clunky to use. TLDR; rebuilding in Rust was the right move. So we rewrote the app with Rust and Tauri and here are the results: - App size is 83% smaller: 1GB → 172MB - DMG Installer is 70% smaller: 232MB → 69.5MB - Indexing files is faster: A 38-minute video now indexes in ~3 minutes instead of 10-14 minutes -…

I built a Rust-based CLI/terminal UI for inspecting Parquet files—data, metadata, and row-group-level structure—right from the terminal. If someone sent me a Parquet file, I used to open DuckDB or Polars just to see what was inside. Now I can do it with one command. Repo: https://github.com/kaushiksrini/parqeye

Hey HN! I'm excited to share a tool I've been working on - a native Hacker News reader built with Rust and egui. Here's a screenshot: https://github.com/haojiang99/hacker_news_reader/blob/main/s.... As a daily HN reader, I've always struggled with keeping track of interesting posts I want to read later. Browser tabs pile up, bookmarks get forgotten, and I lose track of what I've already read. I needed a way to: 1. Browse HN efficiently (across all sections - hot, new, show, ask, jobs, best) 2. Quickly mark posts as "todo" for later reading 3. Mark posts as…

We just released an MCP server that lets Claude (or any MCP client) pull real-time and historical financial data: equities, options chains, crypto, FX, commodities, fundamentals, economic indicators, and 50+ technical signals. You can ask things like: “Plot NVDA’s RSI vs AMD’s over the past year.” “Show the yield curve shift since 2020.” “What are Apple’s recent earnings surprise trends? “Make a 3-statement model for ORCL.” Claude runs the requests, does the math, and returns the data or generates charts/models all inside the chat. Setup takes about a minute. You’ll need Claude Pro…

Hey HN, My friend Sam and I were bored one weekend, and wanted to make something self-contained but still useful. We ended up with Victor [0], a vector database designed to run in the browser. It’s written in Rust, which gives us access to things like super-fast and compact serialization and deserialization, but it’s compiled to WASM and uses web-sys to interact with the browser’s JS APIs to write the database contents to disk. We worked hard on designing it in a way that makes sense for the browser. It uses the private origin file system [1] and stores the vectors in a compact format (one…

Monghoul▲8Last year I decided to start a fun side project - a love child of VS Code and NoSQLBooster. I wanted a GUI that looks modern and snappy, minimal, not like 2003 MS Excel with dozens of buttons and dropdowns everywhere. I also wanted it to have a smart autocomplete that actually knows a schema, not just keys of the current collection, but their types and enum values. I wanted to type find({status: "}) and see "pending", "active", "cancelled" in the autocomplete suggestions. As a tech stack, I chose Tauri for the shell, Bun for the sidecar running the MongoDB driver and a tRPC server, and…

Wrote this to learn more about the `chumsky` parser combinator library, rustyline, and the `ariadne` error reporting crate. Such a nice DX combo for writing new languages. Still a work in progress, but I thought I'd share :)
