Products that do what Permit Elements- UIs to let your customers manage their own damn RBAC does
Hi HN! Co-Founder of Permit.io here, I’ve built access-control to my products, thousands of times throughout my career - and at no point did I want to. We adopted OPA, created OPAL.ac (open-source), and Permit.io on top - so no developer would have to build permissions again. To truly solve this problem end-to-end we’re releasing Permit-Elements (https://permit.io/elements) - embeddable UIs providing the interfaces you need so your end-customers can control access-control (e.g. user-management, audit-logs, approval flows, permission requests, api-key management, …) Check out…

We're open-sourcing 14 components & examples today for PDF, DOCX, and XLSX viewers, plus bounding box citations, file upload, e-signature, and more. It's MIT licensed and fully customizable. Demo video here: https://share.extend.ai/kRmSGKRF When we started, we tried every file viewer and document component library we could find. Unfortunately, none of them had all the functionality (and polish) that we wanted, so we ended up building our own for https://extend.ai/. It was only ever meant to be internal, but enough customers kept asking for it that we decided to…

I like to use org files a lot, but I wanted some way to browse and edit them on my phone when I'm out. Yesterday I used Codex to make this simple one-file web server that just displays all my org files with backlinks. It doesn't have any authentication because I only run it on my wireguard VPN. I've been having fun with it, hopefully it's useful to someone else!

Permify was born out of our repeated struggles with authorization. Like any other piece of software, authorization starts small but as things grow scaling it becomes a real pain and begins to hinder product development processes. Ad-hoc authorization systems scattered throughout your app’s codebase are hard to manage, reason about, and iterate on as the company grows. Also you will need to have more specific access controls as things grow. Traditional approaches like RBAC is inefficient for defining granular permissions such as resource-specific, hierarchical, or context-aware permissions.…

Hey HN, I’m Brad, one of the creators of Superblocks and a YC alum, excited to share our internal tooling IDE. As developers ourselves, we faced the problem of building tons of internal admin UIs, backends to connect siloed data, reporting jobs, and data pipelines. For UIs we would build one-off React components. For integrations, we would have to decipher vendor docs and implement auth. Finally, for reporting jobs we had to handle failures and observability – many hours of repetitive engineering effort. So we built Superblocks, an internal tooling IDE to connect to any datasource…

I built a web-based app for building websites. The main unique features are: 1. The ability to copy and paste any HTML and CSS into the editor with no limits. I was never able to find another app that could do this without some form of limitation. 2. CSS filtering, which means you can click on an element to view and edit the CSS selectors and rules that apply to that element alone. In many cases I've found CSS naming conventions like BEM to become irritating at certain scales, so this is an alternative solution. This part of the app needs some more development work but the concept is there.…

Hi HN! We are thrilled to share a sneak peek of https://openexus.com after months of work. You can try out the cool demos on the front page! The idea is to build a platform and community for composable building blocks where anyone can easily create, find and connect different modules to create dynamic and interactive apps, sites, dashboards, and docs. This can be done without using a single line of code. Key principles of what we are building: 1) True composability that enables infinite possibilities — Modules today are either too complex to be used only by developers (e.g. NPM…

Hey devs :) With 15+ years of UI kit building & design systems, my team is launching a platform that allows developers to build consistent & fully functional UI kits / web projects in days, instead of months. Giving you best practices with the most advanced system design/system design for reusing UI components, combined with access to 500+ open-source components that you can build anything with. Yes it’s open source tech with no vendor lock. Which means you can export any part of your UI kit / project at anytime. Our goal isn’t to enhance your tech stack, not to lock you in.…
