Products that do what Sort Any Awesome List by GitHub Stars does
As a CS undergrad, I self-taught many topics not covered by the school. Typically awesome list is where I started with. I spent my second half in college researching computer vision and machine learning. CVPR accepts over 2000 papers every year, not to mention arXiv. The awesome lists curated by the community usually serve as checklists when I was doing literature surveys. But since the number of the list items was overwhelming, I had to prioritize which papers to read first. Many of them had been uploaded to arXiv in the last few months, so I had no clue how many citations they would get.…

Hi HN, The discussion pops up regularly about which MOOCs and courses to take so I figured I'd start a curated list of recommendations. It's by no means exhaustive (and it's just the ones I know) and is quite broad. If you had any suggestions, feel free to create a PR or Issue, or even respond to this post and I will add it. I'd love to be able to capture quality somehow, but not sure of the way to go about that just yet. https://github.com/tombasche/professional-development

The project aims to organize computer science research in a logical, simple, and easy-to-follow way. It is designed to help us find papers worth reading first. I started building Trending Papers because following computer science research has become increasingly hard as the pace of innovation accelerates. The number of new articles on Arxiv has grown at 27% CAGR for the past 20 years. 240 new papers have been filed daily on average over the past 12 months. And the number is growing: last month, there were well over 300 new papers on average every single day. The system is based on some…

I’ve been frustrated with PDFs and found arXiv HTML lacking, so I built a fully interactive paper reader. Features: • Hover references, citations, equations • Light/dark mode • Auto-generated dependency graphs for definitions/lemmas/theorems • Table of contents that syncs with scroll • Highlighting + annotations • “Copy raw LaTeX” anywhere Featured paper: Video models are zero-shot learners and reasoners (Veo 3) https://www.sciencestack.ai/arxiv/2509.20328v2

I created this tool over the weekend because, as someone interested in AI and technology, I find many research papers on arXiv fascinating but often incredibly dense and difficult to understand due to the heavy jargon and technical language. I wanted to make these complex topics more accessible to laypeople like myself by converting the topics described in these papers into full-length books that break down key concepts, making cutting-edge research easier to grasp. You can think of it as generating prerequisite reading materials before being able to read the actual paper. Here are some…

Cut to the chase: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nyzl3pVXp4 I really am a big supporter of quality education being available for everyone, and because of that I've opted to open source my CS education on YouTube. I'm starting with Rails, and I will eventually work around to more core CS topics like circuits -> logic gates -> binary -> assembly -> c -> Data Structures -> Algorithms etc. If you like it subscribe and I'm looking for all the feedback I can get on how to make it better :)

Hey HN! I built arXiv News (https://arxiv-news.com) – a discussion space for research papers. The problem: I browse arXiv constantly for new papers, but there's nowhere good to discuss them. Twitter is chaotic, Reddit is fragmented, and arXiv itself has no comments. So I cloned HN's design (using https://github.com/clintonwoo/hackernews-react-graphql) and applied it to arXiv. Upvote papers, comment, sort by hot/new/discussed, filter by category, post ideas/papers you've found. A daily scraper pulls all new papers automatically. I'd love to hear…

As a researcher, I created SmartXiv to solve a problem I faced every day: keeping up with the overwhelming number of research papers uploaded to arXiv. With over 1000 new papers each day, finding the most relevant research was time-consuming and exhausting. I needed a smarter way to stay updated. What SmartXiv Does • Personalized Recommendations: Using advanced AI, SmartXiv analyzes your interests and sends you daily emails with research papers that align with your preferences. •Efficient Research: By curating the latest papers for you, SmartXiv saves you hours of research. • Fully…

I built this because I started reading a lot of arXiv papers and wanted a quick way to store and download them. Features: - Add a bunch of arXiv papers to Notion with auto-populated title/URL/date/authors in one command - Download PDFs of any papers you haven't saved yet in one command

Hi HN, For 4 years I've worked on the psychology of learning following a CompSci degree with an AI minor from back in 2019. I love the future of effective learning that is coming. This is a way for you to study for specific exams, lectures and videos. You upload your content, and get specific, citing flashcard exercises delivered in a fun way. Not only can you view the timestamp in the video that a question was generated from, for example, but your answers are used to inform a "Compilation stage". The Compilation stage uses your choices of answers (and wrong answers), as well as data on when…

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a project that I've been working on the last few days that I finally finished last night: https://50books.org This is a simple site designed to track your reading list into 2015. My personal goal is to read 50 books this year, and I wanted to hold myself accountable. Major sites like Goodreads are great, but were too much of a social network for my personal taste; on the other hand, using a text file (which was my 2014 solution) was too difficult to track and share. I built https://50books.org using Sinatra, sqlite3 (via datamapper), and…

This is an AI generated TED talk from a system we built at the TED AI hackathon this weekend. It's built on top of ElevenLabs, SDXL and Wordware (https://wordware.ai/). We also have a custom index of over 2 million arXiv papers and 6 million Wikipedia articles. All open source: https://github.com/ashvardanian/extrapolaTED
