I made this because the online "make my PDF look scanned" tools want you to upload your file to their servers, which feels sketchy at best. Also, I wasn't happy with the output they produce, I wanted something that looks realistic.

Hi HN! I wanted to share Yakari, a tool I built to make command-line interfaces more approachable through interactive TUIs. If you've ever forgotten CLI flags or needed to look up command syntax, this might help. Yakari turns complex commands into interactive menus. Users can navigate through options with simple key presses instead of memorizing complex command structures. If you've used Emacs and Magit (or any other Transient) before, the interface will feel familiar. Features: - Transform CLIs into guided menus - Create custom menus for any CLI - Support for flags, named parameters,…

Hey HN! Victor here from SignatureAPI (https://signatureapi.com) SignatureAPI is an electronic signature platform via API. Our customers use SignatureAPI to add electronic signatures to their apps and workflows. SignatureAPI was born out of the frustration of a friend of mine who needed to integrate electronic signatures into his app, but found Docusign API, at $1+ per envelope, too expensive for his use case. We quickly realized that many others shared this same frustration. We are different from other platforms such as Docusign, Dropbox Sign, Adobe Sign, etc in two key ways: 1.…

I built this simple free signature generator to quickly create a nice-looking digital signature. No design skills or fancy software needed—just hand-draw it or type your name, pick a style, and download it. It’s a super basic tool, but useful if you need a signature for invoices, documents, or anything else where a little extra polish helps. You can download it in PNG format as a transparent file, so it’s easy to drop into any project. If you’re also into templates for things like invoices or letterheads, there are a many other resources on the site that might come in handy. Thanks for…

Hi HN, I wanted to share my very first (insignificant) project written in Go: a little CLI tool that displays messages with an animated bunny holding a sign. I wanted to learn Go and needed a small, fun project to get my hands dirty with the language and the process of building and distributing a CLI. I've built a similar tool in JavaScript before so I thought porting it would be a great learning exercise. This was a dive into Go's basics for me, from package structure and CLI flag parsing to building binaries for different platforms (never did that on my JS projects). I'm starting to…

Hi HN! I'm proud to share that we've launched a free PDF-to-Markdown CLI built on our proprietary (you might know it from PSPDFKit) engine. Most extractors are either fast but lose structure (markitdown, pymupdf4llm) or accurate but slow (docling). Ours ties with docling on accuracy but is orders of magnitude faster. https://github.com/pspdfkit/pdf-to-markdown We'd love feedback on it, and ofc send us files that break it.
