After building several Tauri desktop apps, I kept hitting the same wall: there's no reliable way to access cameras across Windows, macOS, and Linux. Every project meant reinventing camera integration, dealing with platform-specific APIs, and debugging permission issues. So I built CrabCamera – a Tauri plugin that handles all the camera complexity for you. What it does: - One API, three platforms: Same Rust code works on Windows (DirectShow), macOS (AVFoundation), and Linux (V4L2) - Permission handling: Automatically requests camera permissions on each platform - Format conversion: Takes care…

Hey HN! My friends and I built a new platform for generating images. The app is easy to use for people who find ComfyUI hard to use, or just simply don’t have a GPU to use it on.

It’s primarily great because it’s a node-based tool, which means you can chain together models, upscalers, prompting nodes, etc… which let you create images in the exact aesthetic you want.

It's a privacy-preserving home security camera that uses OpenMLS for end-to-end encryption between the camera and the mobile app. The post received a good amount of attention and there were many good comments. Since then, my project cofounder and I have made major improvements to the project. The project previously would act as a hub for an IP camera, which was otherwise closed source. But now, our camera software can…

Hello HN, I've used a lot of image converter websites to run for my daily jobs, but they required uploading my assets on their servers which I didn't like. I decided to build it myself and publish as a website for everyone to use at no cost (since the conversion happened on your browsers) I'd live to hear your thoughts about it. Cheers,
