Hi folks, My friend and I wanted to show a macOS app we wrote. The app allows users to search their Chrome history and insert a link from the search results in any text box. Think the macOS emoji box (Ctrl + Command + Space), but for your Chrome history. For the frontend, we use a combination of React and Electron, mainly for developer velocity. We used Figma to iterate on the visual design. One the challenges was getting the pane to appear next to the user’s caret as they are typing. Currently, we place the pane at the user’s last cursor location. You might notice some quirks in Linkly that…

Hey HN, As a Software Engineer, I frequently copy and paste content. The fact that macOS clipboard buffer can keep only one item is very frustrating. It’s very annoying to copy → switch app → paste → switch app → copy → switch app → paste, and so on. Losing items I copied hours ago and having to find and copy them again is a waste of time.

My partner and I are avid users of Delicious/Pinboard and wanted a quick way to add to and access our stored bookmarks. We created a Chrome extension to scratch that itch. It shows your ten most-recent bookmarks by default, with a fast search interface to find older bookmarks, and keyboard shortcuts for navigation. We plan to add pagination in an upcoming release, and have considered adding support for Safari as well as alternate bookmarking backends. The (mostly CoffeeScript) source is up on GitHub, and may be interesting as an example of caching Backbone Collections in localStorage or…
