A few features: - Includes a convex.dev backed server-side game engine that handles global state - Multiplayer ready. Deployment ready - 100% Typescript - Easily customizable.

    Hello HN, I’ve always loved building frontend-only apps—those you can prototype over a weekend, host for free on GitHub Pages, and scale to millions of users. Unfortunately, AI-enabled apps complicate things, as exposing your OpenAI key to the world is obviously a no-go. This also means mobile developers often have to run their own servers. That’s why I built ServerlessAI, an API gateway that lets you securely call multiple AI providers directly from client side using OpenAI-compatible APIs. You can authenticate users through any identity provider, like Google or Apple, and set per-user…

    I built a dedicated roleplay chat UI for abliteration.ai: https://abliteration.ai/roleplay The backend is OpenAI-compatible (/v1/chat/completions), with usage-based pricing and no prompt/output retention by default (details on the site). The UI is meant for long-form character chats and interactive fiction, without needing a local frontend. Docs (including a roleplay backend guide and a SillyTavern integration guide): https://abliteration.ai/docs Would love feedback on missing RP features, UX rough edges, and what you would expect from a…

    Hello everyone! I'm excited to announce the launch of Astrocyte, a web app that allows you to create and interact with 3D AI characters. Whether it's video game heroes, anime characters, political figures, or even that obscure NPC from your favorite RPG, you can bring them to life and have a chat with them on Astrocyte! Many users have already begun crafting their own characters on Astrocyte, and the conversations have been incredibly entertaining. I would be thrilled if you could give it a try and share your honest feedback. Thank you!

    I've developed a Tamagotchi-like virtual characters drawn in JavaScript. These characters can be manually controlled or interact dynamically with AI assistants, adding a visual identity and fun to AI. Imagine having an AI character that responds to user requests with different states, making interactions playful and engaging.

    Howdy y'all, I'm Jesse and I'm pleased to share Rift (https://www.github.com/morph-labs/rift), an open-source AI-native language server for the IDEs of the future. Software will soon be written mostly by AI SWEs working alongside humans. Codebases and the development environments around them will soon become living artifacts that can anticipate, maintain context on, and execute your every intention. Software development is rapidly evolving and key infrastructure like language servers must evolve with it to support a new generation of developer tools. As part of Rift,…

    Greetings! My name is Jeff, and I’m “early-access” launching my SaaS “serverless” infrastructure for Jamstack, games (particularly board games), and traditional real-time scenarios (presence, pub/sub, etc…). This work is rooted in the frustration of building complicated board games using existing infrastructure. It just so happens that making board games easier has wide reaching implications. Landing page: https://www.adama-platform.com/ This is a radically different kind of “serverless” infrastructure where I want the benefits of both a serverless architecture with a…
