Hi HN! I've been working lately on unifying firefox configuration. Many people work on creating custom `userChrome.css` files and modules, browser user scripts, etc, but it's hard to actually use these a lot of the time. It usually involves cloning a repo, finding a folder and lots of copy paste. My tool (firebuilder) has an interactive CLI to select what to apply, (e.g. firefox hardening, custom CSS, etc) then creates a brand new profile folder for you. You can also seamlessly port from an existing profile folder to preserve all of your history, bookmarks, extensions, etc. For those more…

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 HN, I’m Kiet – one half of the two-person team building Onlook (https://beta.onlook.com/), an open-source [https://github.com/onlook-dev/onlook/] visual editor that lets you edit and create React apps live on an infinite canvas. We launched Onlook [1][2] as a local-first Electron app almost a year ago. Since then, “prompt-to-build” tools have blown up, but none let you design and iterate visually. We fixed that by taking a visual-first, AI-powered approach where you can prompt, style, and directly manipulate elements in your app like in a design…

Mokkit▲305Hey HN, I built Mokkit as an alternative to shots.so. The goal is to provide a better animation UX, deeper template library, and more affordable features. The highlight of the app is the WebM backgroundless video feature; it works well to present a product demo inside an iPhone or browser mockup and fits naturally on any web page.

sleek.design▲212we built sleek.design: you describe your app idea and it generates mobile mockups designs. it is possible to export them into html, react or figma. it is also possible to get a prompt that can be pasted into bolt and will generate the actual app starting from the design created. this is our third huge pivot and honestly the last shot we're giving ourselves. quick backstory: we're 3 bootstrapped builders. launched about a year ago with what's now on v1.reweb.so, basically a visual builder for nextjs/tailwind/shadcn. it went pretty viral and started growing, but we couldn't get past…
