Hey HN, I'm so happy to finally show you all this release after years of hard work. I posted the first version of EnvKey to HN back in 2017 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15330757), then went through YC in W18 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16569534). EnvKey is an end-to-end encrypted configuration and secrets manager. It protects your organization's API keys, encryption keys, credentials, and other secrets, and makes it easy to run servers, scripts, tests, and everything else with the latest config. It also helps you avoid duplication in your…

Hey HN, A few months ago I realized licensing my app wasn't as straightforward as I expected. There was too much setup just to create a license, and the customer experience was not great. All I wanted was for licenses to be generated automatically when I got paid, and for customers to manage their own licenses. So I built Keyforge, a simple software licensing platform for developers. It integrates with Stripe so that licenses are created automatically when someone purchases or subscribes to your product. There's also a self-serve customer portal where users can manage their licenses,…

Hey! I'm Miles, I built this tool to be a fast and reliable solution for generating licenses on the CLI. Licensing has always been a point of stress for me, with how much is at stake. If I copy one from the wrong website, the version I download is the wrong one, or any number of mishaps, my whole code is at risk. We see this fiasco play out all the time. We shake our saddened heads and go on. No longer! Lichen is designed to generate licenses sensibly with three words on the CLI. `lic gen MIT`. Or in a `.lichen.toml` in your project root. Add authors/maintainers with --authors, date it…

Over the last couple of months I have designed and written Keys, a Mac application the helps learning typing and that is supposed to meet Mac users standards for a well-designed application. My goal is to become a micro-ISV or indie developer. The app is only in the Mac app store for now (no trial yet), since end of May, and I have been busy putting together a website and a personal blog since. I would be very interested what the HN community thinks about the application, how you like it, and how it is presented, from a business angle. Prior to this project, I have done much more work on…

I'm an infrastructure architect who started using AI assistants to write code 3 months ago. After building several systems with Claude, I noticed a pattern: the code always had security issues I could spot from my ops background, but I couldn't fix them myself since I can't actually write code. Why I built this: I needed a way to verify AI-generated code was production-safe. Existing tools either required cloud uploads (privacy concern) or produced output too large for AI context windows. TheAuditor solves both problems - it runs completely offline and chunks findings into 65KB segments that…
