    Hi HN, I’d like to share RcloneView( https://rcloneview.com ), a cross-platform GUI for Rclone designed to simplify cloud storage management for developers and power users. Rclone is incredibly powerful but entirely CLI-based. RcloneView wraps that power in an intuitive graphical interface that makes it easy to: • Transfer, sync, copy, or move files across cloud providers. • Compare folders visually before syncing. • Manage jobs with scheduling, history, and dry-run. • Mount cloud storage as a local drive RcloneView supports 40+ backends, including Google Drive, Dropbox, S3,…

    Hi! I’m one of the founders of s2.dev, and recently have been hacking on opbox, which is an open-source daemon that turns directories of text files (code, markdown, etc) into collaborative, multi-player workspaces. This started as a bit of an intellectual curiosity, to see if it was possible to do real-time sync at the filesystem level (i.e., in an editor-agnostic way). The idea is pretty simple: - Opbox workspaces are roughly analogous to git repositories (and can be used alongside existing git repos, to share live changes between commits) - When the opbox daemon is running in a workspace…

    I became a full on data hoarder recently, but even before I was juggling multiple buckets for backups, stock assets, etc. I settled some long time ago, but always forgot some flag, and while I do love a CLI for some endeavors, for this one I felt like a UI would make me move faster (if done right). Some of my favorite features: - Remote Defaults (set default flags for a remote, they are applied as initial flags to every operation where that remote is selected, like a pre-fill) - Templates (a group of flags for an operation, eg. Move, that you can apply. they’re useful when you run the same…

    Welp, second time posting this project! Bourne shell's ALGOL-inspired syntax seems a bit verbose, and while `rc` is quite nice, it lacks some features I'd prefer in a shell (this is probably by design). Though don't let the name I chose fool you, this shell is probably more related to `tcl` or `csh` than `rc`, except in some small places. It's been a while since my last post. Notable new features include a stack trace (via `caller`), `try`/`catch` (but only with user-supplied strings), `fc`, `disown`, login shell detection, and a shorter argv alias (`${argv number}` becomes `$number`).…
