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

I just published an open-source protein and ligand viewer. Goal: fast and easy-to-use. Long-term: It's a platform for docking and molecular dynamics. The basic functionality for viewing and inspecting work. I'm currently working on Coot-like electron-density viewing. I'm gradually splitting it into standalone libs, published to crates.io. Some are up already, others are integrated, and will be split off when sufficiently mature and decoupled. Uses parallel execution when able, through thread pools (Rayon), CPU SIMD and Cuda. The default control scheme is non-standard, unless you play video…

Hey everyone! I'm excited to share a small web app I built that allows you to view and extract the contents of Windows MSI installers directly in your browser. It's essentially a web-based "lessmsi" powered by Pyodide. You can try it out at: https://pymsi.readthedocs.io/en/latest/msi_viewer.html My motivation for building this was from part of my day job -- I often get Windows MSI installers and need to extract files while preserving the relative directory structure and filenames, as they would appear after a full installation. The existing tools I found were good…

Hey HN! This has been my project for a few years now. I recently brought it back to life after taking a pause to focus on my studies. My goal with this project is to separate fluff from science when shopping for supplements. I am doing this in 3 steps: 1.) I index every supplement on the market (extract each ingredient, normalize by quantity) 2.) I index every research paper on supplementation (rank every claim by effect type and effect size) 3.) I link data between supplements and research papers Earlier last year, I took pause on a project because I've ran into a few issues: Legal: Shady…

I was frustrated with how bad a signal of progress through a big PR "Files viewed" was, so I made a "Lines viewed" indicator to complement it. Designed to look like a stock Github UI element - even respects light/dark theme. Runs fully locally, no API calls. Splits insertions and deletions by default, but you can also merge them into a single "lines" figure in the settings.

This program provides a simple way of visualizing the different regions of a binary file. Written in C, depends only on libpng. Currently (commit 1dd42e3) it is able to generate PNG images that represent various aspects of the binary: - Grayscale: Byte values, 00..FF. - Ascii: Printability of each byte. - Entropy: Of a "block", changed with --block-size. - Histogram: Bar graph of the byte frequencies. - Bigrams: Each point is determined by a pair of bytes. - Dotplot: Measure self-similarity. Image width/height is N^2. In the future, I plan on adding an SDL version that allows the user…

My partner reviews a lot of P&IDs (piping and instrumentation diagrams) and the adjacent files involved (excel, docx, pdfs, acd/l5x, etc). In his company, these are usually done in Bluebeam. It's really hard to see the diff + keep track of all the revisions resulted by these iterations. They end up storing files like "rev3_final_redlined.pdf". We've been looking for something close to Github to do these reviews, but haven't found one easy enough for folks with no CLI experience to understand and use (happy to check out more tools if you know any). So I built withkord.com to help with…

I built a tool that stores your full Claude Code history to let you easily find and resume sessions. It has TUI, CLI and MCP interfaces. It's a single Go binary, and the session history is synced to SQLite each time you use it. Default mode is the TUI with a session browser and full-text search. Once a session is selected you can browse and search within it, resume it or export to markdown. The MCP server provides tools to let Claude search back through the session for pre-compact context or pull from prior sessions. I use this constantly. I've seen elaborate continuity systems to give…

i always loved looking up the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS) when researching a sequence of numbers. so I decided to make a TUI and CLI for it so that I can browse sequences in the terminal. it supports almost all the features on the site (including the OEIS Webcam) and supports graphs, a preview pane, exporting and bookmarks. more features here: https://github.com/hako/oeis-tui?tab=readme-ov-file#features repo: https://github.com/hako/oeis-tui gitHub releases: https://github.com/hako/oeis-tui/releases cargo:…

2 weeks ago, I posted chroma-exploter here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46624731 and it received a lot of positive feedback. So I decided to build a similar tool for Pinecone. While both being vector databases, Pinecone is more enterprise grade and a lot more functionally rich than Chroma, hence a separate app. This Mac native app makes it easier to work with Pinecone data, with all types of indexes (dense, sparse and hybird) and supports reranking.
