    I made this because building UIs in a lexical medium like code is super annoying. I have to pre-render what I’m making in my head, and then jump between the browser and IDE to test. I was inspired by the developer console in chrome and safari since I end up editing css there because it’s ironically more convenient. Hope it’s useful!

    Hey HN! Christian here, cofounder and CTO of Frigade (https://www.frigade.com). Our tool helps product and engineering teams quickly build in-app experiences like getting started checklists, product tours, account upsells, and nps surveys. Basically all the little things that can help boost your product's activation and retention rates, but that you don't really want to spend the time building from scratch. We built React UI components such as , , and and combined them with a web app that you can use to control user targeting, content management, sequencing, and more. These…

    Many JS libraries exist to build graphs on the web (Vega, chartJS, Plotly...). They allow to make charts quickly. But you lose flexibility: you're limited by the options they offer. I just created a gallery with hundreds of graphs made with d3.js and React. - Examples are split by graph types - They all come with explanation and code sandboxes - Gradual complexity to ease the learning curve It took me ages to create this project! Feedback welcome!

    Development of real applications can and should be simpler. Existing solutions focus on the problems that are the most fun to work and that give the appearance of creating a working app quickly but don't deal with the real issues that arise when building a business quality application. Worse, many of these problems have known solutions which are never applied. Sapling propels you, the developer, forward by generously applying known solutions and innovative ideas, allowing you to tackle problems that should be simple with unprecedented facility and tackle hard problems rapidly and without…

    Hey HN! I've built a way to launch simple, stateful React components like promotions, banners, and announcements in your web app through reusable in-app UI channels. Here's a demo of how it works: https://youtu.be/qrPip41Ecyg. The docs are here: https://docs.frigade.com/v2/platform/collections. This enables non-technical teammates to launch native, prebuilt components directly in the product UI without involving engineering. We also provide the ability to update content (i.e. CMS), track user progress/state and target components to specific users…
