Hi HN, I'm thrilled to share with you think, a command-line tool that I developed while diving back into the programming scene. For the past few years, my focus had shifted from hands-on programming to managerial roles, my last one being at Affirm (I started Affirm's Polish office). However, I recently left my job to revisit my passion for coding and see if I could still write code that works. Not to mention that with what is currently going on in AI if you are a developer this probably the best possible time for a sabbatical in human history :) My first attempt was with LangChain, but I…

Hello everyone! We just launched our project for the 48H non-stop Codebits Programming Contest which took place this last days in Lisbon, Portugal. When a new project starts, you get all motivated to get it done. Weeks pass and now you are all confused and wondering why the hell you are doing what you are doing. We hope to help you get those thoughts out of your mind and focus on what's important: getting it done. http://www.whyamidoingit.com "Why Am I Doing It?" (WAIDI) is a personal reminder of why you are doing whatever you are doing disguised as a web app. WAIDI will help people like us…

I strongly believe that every developer is a teacher and likewise. Every time you are asked to help someone else understand your code, you’ll always be grateful to be able to share your own knowledge with others. Explain Code App is the place you can make this happen! I am eager to hear your thoughts on what I have put together so far. Would love to hear your feedback! Let me know if there are any other features you would like for this site, I’m open for ideas and would love the community feedback. Here is the link: https://www.explaincode.app/

Hello guys! I need some help reviewing, and refining the landing page for an app that I'm building: http://taskr.punchdev.com/ (and here's a screenshot in case my DNS hasn't updated yet: http://cl.ly/0M1w340S1M2T1m0W3G2I ) It's a to-do list app that differentiates itself from others by making sure you add new tasks daily. Plus, it makes it easy for the user (you) to see the status of a task thanks to colors (blue for week-long tasks, red for overdue, orange for nearly due, and green for not due yet. Bonus points: The screenshot on the right is actually made with Keynotopia! Thanks a lot…

Most projects I've worked on included a bunch of scripts for common tasks (installing dependencies, starting/stopping dev servers, testing and deploying changes, and so on). There are a few tools designed for this, such as Just (https://just.systems/) and Task (https://taskfile.dev/), and I know some people use Make as a task runner (e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40333481), but I've always preferred the simplicity and universality of shell scripts. Bin CLI is a tool I wrote to add some of the niceties of these tools to shell…

Hi everyone! I built this because I wanted a little bit more organization around my Claude sessions, worktrees and plans while staying in the terminal and not relying on another SaaS tool. Since it's a command line tool, the added bonus is that Claude can use `td` directly. The td calendar was just a fun add-on but the Claude session stats have been pretty interesting! Let me know what you think!

Hi HN, We replaced accounting workflows with a CLI. Scan a receipt → it’s parsed, categorized (VAT, etc.), and ready to book: scan → parse → confirm → BOOKED What used to be: PDFs + emails + manual entry + dashboards is now: one command. No UI. No forms. No backoffice. Try it: npx norman-ai-cli@latest If you’ve ever tried to automate accounting or taxes, curious if this feels like a better abstraction.
