Products that do what Vibebox: Your Inbox and Vibes does
Hi HN! I'm here to share Vibebox (vibebox.app), a little toy app I built to sprinkle joy across your inbox with friendly animal avatars and messages that transform mundane emails into warm, joyful reads. About Vibebox - Transforms your emails with playful visuals and warm messages. - Aims to reduce stress associated with email management. - Promotes positivity within your daily routine. I'd love your feedback! Is this something you'd actually use if it were built out? I'm convinced it's a fun toy app, but a few early beta testers have said it's turning into their favorite way to read email…

Hey folks at HN, I didn’t want to pay $10–$30/month for AI email tools, so my friend and I built a free Chrome extension that works directly inside Gmail. It has the core features you'd expect: - When you open a reply, it drafts a response based on the thread — just hit Tab and send. - As you type, it suggests completions based on context (like autocomplete, but smarter). - Press Shift+Tab to force a suggestion anytime. - You can also give it context with // comments — e.g. // suggest a time on Thursday afternoon — and press Tab to drop in the response. Then hit…

My kids are surprisingly keen to learn to type, and I couldn't find any thing out there which was A) Free without adverts B) Worked well on mobile/tablets C) Was clutter free and easy to use I wondered how easily I could vibe code a solution. Here's the result. Everything here was "vibe coded" to an extent, the graphics, sounds, art-work, even the github pipelines ( and I used chatgpt to instruct me how to configure everything in AWS ) I'm particularly pleased with the phoneme game, https://free-kids-typing-games.com/games/phoneme-sound-lab/ which was crafted…

Hey HN, I'm a longtime reader and this is my first Show HN (exciting!) It's a collaboration between me and two friends, and we're building this upon another app we made called EmailYak, an API to receive email. We're trying something new and releasing the documentation to an app while we're still building it. We'd love feedback. Do you belong to any of these categories? 1) You've built an app with two distinct groups of users (say, people with cars and those looking for a ride) and they were able to communicate with each other. Did you expose personal email addresses? Did you send…

Show HN: Voice AI is wild now. I vibe coded this email agent in 24 hours — MorningCommute.app Hi HN, I used to be part of the 10,000+ unread emails club. Eventually I got it down to inbox zero and it felt amazing. But as life got busier, staying on top of email became harder. Commuting felt like the perfect dead time to reclaim — so I built [Morning Commute](https://www.morningcommute.app/. A voice agent that reads your emails out loud and lets you reply using just your voice. What it does: - Connects to Gmail and fetches your unread emails - Reads them to you via voice AI -…

The feedback I've had for it so far is mind blowing "I love it" "Oddly satisfying" "Satisfying" "Can't stop playing with this" "Nice" "You're crazy, well shipped" "Highly therapising process 10/10 would recommend!" "10/10 Internet" "Popped a few.. I feel happy now" "Gosh darn it. I feel better now." "Good app to end the day" "My work progress is wrecked from now on" "I will make it my routine to pop these at the end of each work day" ... and more! I submitted a form somewhere once and they showed me a confetti. Made me feel good. But to see it again I'd have to keep resubmitting…

I was going through my app subscriptions and realized I was paying $15 for a pretty good workout app, which seemed a bit high to me. As a software engineer who is also well versed in claude code, I realized that I could likely vibecode a very similar app, or even build something more to my liking. I challenged my self to build something roughly equivalent this afternoon. Workflow was: start with a detailed spec from Claude code describing many of the features common in workout apps. Then paste this into lovable to have it build out the initial mvp. Once that was built, I used claude code…

I’ve started working on a new startup called Thoughtful Post (https://thoughtfulpost.com) It’s a useful and fun-to-use app that will help you organize and remember all of your friend’s birthdays/weddings/anniversaries and help you find interesting and new gifts to get them based on their likes and dislikes! There are collaboration features and surveys you can use to farm your friends likes/dislikes and work together with friends to pick out gifts for people. All of the functionality is in the mobile app:…

Hi everyone, I just saw a vibe coded game on HN, and thought maybe I should post about this here. I'm organizing a vibe coding game dev competition called Vibe Jam. Last year we did it too and there was 1000+ games submitted. This year the deadline is May 1 and you can submit your games until then. There's $35,000 in prizes with the Gold prize being $20,000. Let me know what you think! -Pieter

>>>>> TimeForZen.com <<<<< This took months to put together. Learning javascript, using the sound manager 2 api. Finding the perfect creative commons photos on flickr. It's such a ridiculously simple site (just a curated list of music) but I went through hell debugging and getting it to work. I learned an extreme amount. My advice to designers who can't code, keep it simple, just get it done don't worry about optimization, don't worry about a backend. Code everything manually if you have to. I've kept it simple out of necessity. I'm a designer, not a…

I missed what social media used to feel like, so I made an app to share real moments without algorithms deciding what matters. On the Apple App Store only, sorry Android.

I know vibe coding is controversial. I wanted to give it a try so over the last ~4 weeks I tried vibe coding a blender/houdini inspired node based 3d geneartion app in my spare time. The original goal was to try to generate great looking 3d environments from relatively small data. Most games download megs or gigs of data and that's no good for web based things. If you're an AI skeptic still, maybe seeing more concretely what's possible today might convince you otherwise? I'm not making any claim the code is good, though I'm also not claiming is bad. I had fun giving it a try. I was…

Moodlogger is an iPhone app that lets you log your mood at any given time. The idea is to be able to share it with others and to generate statistics for users, showing how often they are [happy,angry,sad,etc.]. It was a fun exercise for me to build so I thought I'd share my (dev) experiences with you. Link to project: http://www.moodlogger.net Dev blog entry: http://www.colorfulwolf.com/blog/2011/05/29/introducing-moodlogger/ Appreciate the feedback!
