Products that do what Miniflux-CLI – offline-first Miniflux client does
Hey Hacker News, miniflux-cli developer here. I use miniflux as primary source of things to read (including hacker news, of course), but in my case I don't have stable internet connection most of the time, so I did offline-first console client for miniflux, check it out: https://sr.ht/~xn/miniflux-cli/ It syncs all feeds and entries on start and after that you can read all the content offline (including "mark as read"/"mark as unread"). The project built on go, using bbolt db, tview and official miniflux api client. Some neat features - you can set text and…

I wrote this small client to read hackernews from my favorite editor. It's currently using an external HTTP API [0] but I'm working on my own proxy [1]. I'd love to actually scrape and cache all the info I need using lisp. However, my time constraints are keeping me away of that goal. I could definitely use some help here! :) I'm also planning to add support for comments and posting new things. Any feedback is highly appreciated! Thank you!

There are plenty of good tools for load testing such as JMeter, Minigun, and plenty more - but they all have their own set of options to learn. I built this one to support a simpler workflow where you just paste your curl request (or other cli command) after your `spam` config (literally just `spam -r 2 -- curl www.google.com). It's pretty barebones but I'm 100% going to use it in my day to day - figured I'd share it here if it helped anyone else!

Hi there HN! I'm Matthias and I've been into video streaming for quite a while now. Over the years I've built plenty of small setups, often CLI tools to test and debug streaming video. About a month ago, during my annual holiday, I started working on a simple API on top of my CLI tools. It's time consuming to craft and run multiple ffmpeg jobs, get GOP / keyframes right, merge playlists, package to HLS, ... One thing led to another and I eventually started exploring HLS interstitials, VMAP / VAST and dynamic ad insertion, MSE / EME (HLS.js in general), React (perf) as a player…

Hello HN! I am Ashley, author of the book Serverless Apps on Cloudflare, and I'm excited to share it with you and hopefully spread the awareness of the powerful and developer-focussed platform that Cloudflare has built, that I believe is currently flying under the radar! For years, I've been building applications on Cloudflare - from websites, to APIs, to Discord bots and everything in-between. The platform has grown hugely in the past few years, to the point it has all the essential building blocks for modern applications. It's also built with engineers in mind, the developer experience…

I had been looking to try <500M parameter language models but you wouldn't find an API to try them anywhere, so I built this cloudflare hosted static website that hosts weights and built an inference runtime for these models that uses WebGPU and runs inference from your browser. These are only so useful in a multi-turn conversation but it's still interesting to see what you can pack in a <250mb model. I tried using ONNX versions earlier, but there were too many quirks of using them with language models and the TPS wasn't too impressive. Inspired by svenflow/webgpu-gemma, I put my codex…

Hi hackers, long time reader, first time "real" submitter. This is by no means a revolutionary idea, or even execution, but rather something I've always wanted to do, just to see if I could write a good implementation of it. So without further adieu: http://ca.pitali.st/ Yes, it's just an URL shortener. Please check out the API and if there anything you like about it, please share, so I can take this feedback with me to my future projects. If there's something you REALLY hate, that's feedback too. Don't be afraid to hurt my feelings; this was put together in less than 4 hours to see if I…

Hi HN, I've been building CH-UI, an open-source ClickHouse workspace. Today I'm releasing v2, which is a complete rewrite from scratch. v1 was a React SPA served via Docker. v2 is a single Go binary with an embedded Svelte frontend — download, run, open browser. No Docker, no Node, no runtime dependencies. What it does: - Multi-tab SQL editor with autocomplete - Database/table explorer with data preview - Saved queries - Tunnel architecture: run `ch-ui server` on one machine and `ch-ui connect` next to your ClickHouse — secure WebSocket tunnel, no VPN needed - Self-update (`ch-ui…

Tired of bloated installers and complex DevOps pipelines? I built PPORT — a terminal-based messenger — to demo a crazy simple idea: 1. Instant CLI delivery over HTTP 2. Just curl or irm, nothing else 3. TypeScript on the fly via Deno 4. Live deployment without Docker or builds How it works: Visit https://pport.top Run one command (curl -fsSL pport.top | sh) PPORT streams scripts and source files dynamically based on your client (curl, browser, Deno) No packaging. No compiling. No friction. Source on GitHub: https://github.com/vseplet/pport Curious what else…

After fine-tuning GPT for a personal project, I realized how tedious it is to write plain text in a massive JSON file. That's why I built this app for my own use, and I want to see if others could benefit from a tool like this as well ;)

Hey HN! Over the past few weeks, I’ve been working on DataBridge, an open-source solution for data ingestion and querying across text, PDFs, images, and videos. In our latest update, we’ve added a fully local deployment option: - No internet required – Runs entirely offline. - Customizable Models – Supports any LLM and embedding model via Ollama (with options for any other private providers) - Extensibility – You can plug in your own models or tools easily. This local-first approach ensures better privacy, security, and flexibility, especially for teams dealing with sensitive data. You can…

Hi HN, I just wanted to share what I have been working on for the past few months: A firmware analyzer for embedded Linux systems that helps uncovering security issues running entirely in the browser. This is a very early Alpha. It is going to be rough around the edges. But I think it provides quite a lot of value already. So please go ahead and drop a firmware (only .tar rootfs archives for now) and try to break it :)

Hello everyone, While working on other projects, I found myself always having to connect and use SELECT * to see dummy entries or new users. I favored the CLI for monitoring my database entries, especially because I was testing and just adding dummy users + our first normal users in projects. So it became a bit tiring always having to connect to postgres, mysql and give select * queries from the CLI.

A tiny (yocto) git client for MicroPython microcontrollers / other memory-constrained environments (<100k) like the $6 ESP32. It speaks to git HTTP/HTTPS servers using the ubiquitous git "smart client" protocol. It supports branches/tags, shallow clones and sparse checkouts (ie: only checking out a sub-directory of a larger project). I wrote it to remotely deploy/update code over low-bandwidth connections.

I'm Dustin Kirkland, author of Byobu[1]. I built Trustmux[2] to solve a personal problem: secure, encrypted access to my tmux[3] and Byobu sessions from my phone, without the pain of other mobile shell approaches. I run long-lived shells, Claude, and other sessions in the background on my workstation, and I needed to check in from mobile — securely, with real TLS certificates and Tailscale-backed privacy, not some insecure workaround. Why not SSH / Mosh / Claude Mobile? - SSH/Mosh: Synchronous connection state is brutal on mobile. Latency, network handoffs between WiFi and…

Hi, We’ve built Pantheon-CLI, an fully open-source project that aims to be the “Python Claude Code + Notebook” — but designed for data analysis instead of just coding. Unlike most AI coding assistants, Pantheon-CLI runs entirely on your machine (or server). No data upload required. It blends natural language and code in a single workflow, keeping variables in memory and letting you switch seamlessly between typing code and asking in plain English. What it does: 1. Chat with your data: Directly process CSV, Excel, AnnData, Pickle, Torch tensors, or any format supported by…

Hi HN I’ve been building *Mini Apps Builder*, a small no-code tool to help people create Telegram mini apps and simple web apps without writing code. The idea came from experimenting with Telegram mini apps — they’re powerful, but the tooling can be difficult unless you’re already a developer. This project aims to simplify that with templates, basic payments, and quick deployment, so people can focus more on the idea than on setup. I’d really appreciate feedback from anyone who has built Telegram bots or mini apps, or thoughts on whether this solves a real problem. Happy to answer questions…

CloudCLI is an open source web and mobile UI/mini IDE for Claude Code, Gemini, Codex and Cursor CLI. It sits on top of your existing agent install and gives you a browser interface you can open from any device. You can start sessions, resume existing ones, browse and edit files, manage git and the same control as sitting at your desktop. Try it: npx @siteboon/claude-code-ui (works with your existing setup) When you open it you'll already see all the sessions from your terminal. Some backstory:I've wanted to develop from my phone for a long time. When Claude Code arrived, the…

Hey HN, I built ShadowGit a while back to automatically commit code every minute to a hidden git repo (.shadowgit.git). Original goal was to easily rollback when AI tools break things. But I discovered something interesting: this minute-by-minute history is perfect context for AI assistants. So I built an MCP server that lets Claude/Cursor query this history using native git commands. The results surprised me: Before: Claude would read my entire codebase repeatedly, burning 15,000+ tokens to debug issues. After: Claude runs `git log --grep="drag"` finds when drag-and-drop worked,…
