Quickly sharing this overview. To get an OS nervous system rather than a typical AI web stack, we made the architectural choice to have voice, interface, and system state as independent services coordinating through a shared mesh - giving us the "bones" of PearlOS.

Hey HN, we're a YC startup building an open-source, privacy-first alternative to Perplexity Comet. No invite system unlike bunch of others – you can download it today from our website or GitHub: https://github.com/browseros-ai/BrowserOS --- Why bother building an alternative? We believe browsers will become the new operating systems, where we offload much bunch of our work to AI agents. But these agents will have access to all your sensitive data – emails, docs, on top of your browser history. Open-source, privacy-first alternatives need to exist. We're not a search or ad…

Hello HN! I want to show you MyNixOS.com - a website I've been working on this year to make it easy to create and share Nix and NixOS configurations. Nix is a powerful tool to deploy software in a reproducible way, and with NixOS you can control your whole operating system through a declarative configuration. Starting out with Nix was exciting, but it definitely had a challenging learning curve. This made me start building a website focused on making it easier to create and share Nix flakes, which are the core unit of software deployment in Nix. Using the website, you can create flakes…

ChunkHound’s goal is simple: local-first codebase intelligence that helps you pull deep, core-dev-level insights on demand, generate always-up-to-date docs, and scale from small repos to enterprise monorepos — while staying free + open source and provider-agnostic (VoyageAI / OpenAI / Qwen3, Anthropic / OpenAI / Gemini / Grok, and more).

Would love your feedback or questions! Thank you - https://todo2.pro

Hi HN! We’re Akilan and Miguel, the creators of MarbleOS. The inspiration for Marble comes from the GUI work at Xerox PARC, the 1984 Macintosh, and later NeXTSTEP, which became the foundation for Mac OS X. Before GUIs, interacting with a computer was limited to strange terminal commands: C:\> DIR C:\> COPY FILE.TXT A: You had to remember the command, syntax, paths, and parameters. The GUI made those capabilities visible. Instead of remembering commands, you could point at files, drag them, click buttons, and select actions from menus. It didn't necessarily make entirely new things possible;…
