Hey HN, I’m Kiet, and I’m one of the co-founders of Onlook – an open-sourced desktop app that lets you visually edit your locally running React app, then write your changes back to code in real time. I posted the repo a few months ago [1] when it was just 2 weeks old. Since then, we’ve made some big changes/improvements. I wanted to share some of the updates we’ve made and add more technical details. Here are the three big ones: • Inserting new elements - Draw elements in the live page like a design tool and write them back to code. • Component detection - Detect when an element is a…

Hi HN, I'm the creator of FFlags. I built this because I wanted a feature flagging system that gave me the performance and reliability of an enterprise-scale solution without the months of dev time or the vendor lock-in. The core ideas are: 1. Feature Flags as Code: You define your flag logic in TypeScript. This lets you write complex rules, which felt more natural as a developer myself than using a complex UI for logic. 2. Open Standard: The platform is built on the OpenFeature standard (specifically the Remote Evaluation Protocol). The goal is to avoid vendor lock-in and the usual…

Hey HN! I’ve written a bunch of WebSocket servers over the years to do simple things like state synchronization, WebRTC signaling, and notifying a client when a backend job was run. I realized that if I had a simple way to create a private, temporary, mini-redis that the client could talk to directly, it would save a lot of time. So we created DriftDB. In addition to the open source server that you can run yourself, we also provide https://jamsocket.live where you can use an instance we host on Cloudflare’s edge (~13ms round trip latency from my home in NY). You may have seen my…

Hi HN, I’m Kiet, one of the creators of Onlook studio. I made this app that allows you to visually edit your locally running React app and write the code back to it in real-time. The purpose is to allow you to develop UI while fully owning your code the whole time. There are other visual builders out there but they either require you to upload your code to the cloud or some lengthy setup process. Onlook runs locally, deterministically, and only requires adding a plugin for the compile step (2 lines of config change). Technical details: This is technically a web browser that can point to your…

Hey guys! I’ve been working on a web app called CodeCafé—a collaborative, browser-based code editor inspired by VS Code and Replit, but with no downloads, no sign-up, and zero setup. You just open the link and start coding—together. The frontend is built with React and TypeScript, and the backend runs on Java with Spring Boot, which handles real-time editing via WebSockets. For syncing changes, I’m using Redis along with a custom Operational Transformation system (no third-party libraries!!!). The idea came after I found out a local summer school was teaching coding using Google Docs (yes,…
