Products that do what Rosace – explore digital lace patterns does
I have been working on a digital lace pattern exploration tool and sought to gather some feedback. I’m planning on submitting it to the Sveltehack competition ending later this month. Feedback welcome and you can share your own creations as the state is fully encapsulated in the URL hash. If you’d like to know how the sausage gets made, it’s over at https://github.com/mxdvl/mxdvl/pull/237 The state is saved in the URL hash, so you can share creations like so: https://www.mxdvl.com/works/rosace#shape/NoIgpgdgTgXgngcwKwG...

Hi HN I built a fun little tool: It uses Groq’s LLaMA 3.3 + Puppeteer to analyze a website Then it roasts the design/content/UX with humor And finishes with 3–5 genuinely helpful improvement tips You can try it here: https://ai-roast-vert.vercel.app I wanted to: Practice fast idea-to-launch cycle (built in 2 days) Experiment with a viral-friendly product Monetize with a $0.55 pro version that gives a detailed roast + download Would love your feedback — on the idea, the tone, the usefulness — anything! Thanks in advance

Hello HN! I've been working on http://underthesite.com for the last month and now think it is ready for some full strength HN feedback. What do you guys think? It crawls up to 10 pages of a given site while you wait, looking for community-provided CSS / XPath selectors and regular expressions. Additionally, I'd like to appeal to you to submit matchers for technologies that you care about. Technologies are easy to add, so add your favorite jQuery plugins, analytics tools, client-side node.js wrappers, what have you. I'm going to be running a large crawl in the next few days and want to make…

I make fractal art with GLSL and got tired of fighting Shadertoy's limits when I wanted to actually finish and export pieces. So I built the tool I wanted: ShaderKit runs in the browser, fully ShaderToy-compatible, but adds the export pipeline that was missing for me. - Loop examination mode: visualizes the transition point of a looping shader in slow motion so you can see exactly where it breaks. X-time remapping helps debug discontinuities by mapping time to the x coordinate, this way you can see literally if the loop is seamless or not, if you see any seams, its not seamless. This is what…

process demo - https://i.redd.it/fbhlwsq1gcmg1.gif render demo - https://i.redd.it/smddwtryhcmg1.gif I love making creative software. I spent a few years making pixel art software but recently have gotten into 3d animation and 2d animation and really wanted a way to realize crazy ideas. Blockbench didn't feel quite right, spline is super well made but felt catered too much to just idle website animations, and I really didn't want to fall down a master class in Blender just to make some silly stuff. While I'm definitely not discounting Blender's literal…

I am sorry to submit this again, but I feel it didn't get its share yesterday on HN. So I am giving it one last try. stk8.co allows you to stack several Links or Text and share them under one shortened url. It embeds a preview of the link for common services like youtube, vimeo, amazon, cnn, scribd, etc... It also has a bookmarklet to easily stack links. Feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

So, after many years of kicking about little apps and not putting the full effort in, I decided to bite the bullet and get on with it. Very much inspired by patio11 and Bingo Card Creator, I present Griddol (http://www.griddol.com) a tool to create and play word searches. Intended mainly for teachers, but encouraging those who like a word search too. This been churning around in my head for over a year in various forms, and I used the concept to help learn CoffeeScript, CouchDB and node.js, so even if the product itself is a failure, the learning process has been valuable. I'll be the first…

Hey, I'm Nenad. I built Grafly (https://grafly.io) because I kept reaching for different tools just to sketch out a quick architecture diagram and hating either the UI, color schemes, usage patterns or that I had to log in, or have my doodles stored on someone's server. It's a React/React Flow app that runs entirely in the browser meaning that everything saves to localStorage, nothing leaves your machine. You get basic shapes, AWS/GCP icons, edges with waypoints and shareable URLs that encode the whole diagram in the query string (no backend, just LZ compression). There…

I built a tool to roast landing pages with AI agents. I was gathering feedback from watching landing page roast videos, and figured out I could prompt LLMs to analyse a screenshot and roast based on the same criteria. It's not 100% accurate yet, but it has been really insightful when I've tested it on my own websites. Let me know what you think!

I made this as a pair programming exercise with o1-preview. o1 did most of the heavy lifting, through high level prompts, but eventually I needed to diverge from it to get to completion. My initial prompt was: --- I'm making a web app: It's like 4chan, but each thread starts with a gps coordinate. People can only post text and images. I want to build it with flask and sqlalchemy. I want just the backend and data model that supports these threads, anonymous users, and users that can register a permanent username. Write as much of it as you can for me. --- This produced a fully scaffolded…

Hi there! I'm building Diagrammatic, a simple and free online tool with the ambition to become a community for diagrams-as-code enthusiasts. Currently, it supports Mermaid, PlantUML, Dot (Graphviz), Vega-Lite, and Typogram, but I'm looking to add more languages. Please let me know if there's a particular one you use. I'd appreciate any kind of constructive feedback as well. Thanks in advance!

I love Svelte and GraphQL. I do not like React. So, when I'm building APIs, I cringe when using the official GraphiQL interface. I have free will and a Claude subscription so I made it happen. You can find it on npm as "@eeeooolll/graphiql" (@eol was taken). https://www.npmjs.com/package/@eeeooolll/graphiql I also upgraded my batteries-included GraphQL server to use it. You can find it on JSR. https://jsr.io/@eol/gq

Hey HN, I've been wanting to start this project for a long time, ever since I read an article about collaborative transformation of blob images[1], and I'm hoping it will take off here as I'm curious to see how it can grow. Here's how it works: - My website is available at https://chaospixels.com. You can find its code in the `src` directory of the linked repository. - Every day, I'll review all the open PRs (Pull Requests) and calculate a PR score based on the number of thumbs-up on the PR's opening comment. - The PR with the highest score will be merged and deployed. - Afterward,…

Hey everyone! I am excited to share updates on four of my & my teams' open-source projects that take large-scale search systems to the next level: USearch, UForm, UCall, and StringZilla. These projects are designed to work seamlessly together, end-to-end—covering everything from indexing and AI to storage and networking. And yeah, they're optimized for x86 AVX2/512 and Arm NEON/SVE hardware. USearch [1]: Think of it as Meta FAISS on steroids. It's now quicker, supports clustering of any granularity, and offers multi-index lookups. Plus, it's got more native bindings than probably…

Hi HN, I hacked together Yurl.ai last week—a bare-bones URL shortener in F# / .NET 9 using a simple CQRS + event-sourcing setup. The gimmick: for each new link, it grabs the page text and asks a small language model to suggest a short, readable slug (4–8 chars). I’m curious whether these model-made names beat the usual random hashes. Tech bits: Actors as aggregates SQLite for both event store and read model Source (MIT): https://github.com/OnurGumus/YURL Live demo: https://yurl.ai (free tier—please be gentle) Happy to hear what you think.

Author here. Got tired of checking Upwork, NoFluffJobs, eFinancialCareers, LinkedIn and HN threads separately, so I built a CLI that scrapes them into a local SQLite DB and lets me browse everything in one web UI with filters and semantic search. Details: - Scraping via real browser over CDP (your own logged-in session, no API keys) - Embeddings run locally (nomic-embed-text via fastembed), stored in Lance - Rust backend, SolidJS frontend embedded in binary, single static executable Works for my use case (Europe-based contractor). It's my first rust project, decided to do local CLI, it's…
