   SVG Weave▲14

   Hey HN, I'm a solo dev and I kept wasting hours hand-writing CSS @keyframes to animate SVGs. Write a keyframe, preview, tweak the timing, preview again, repeat. For anything beyond a simple fade it turns into dozens of rules across multiple elements. I wanted something where I could just describe the motion and get working animations back. SVG Weave is a visual node graph editor for this. You place nodes on a canvas (SVG input, prompt, render) and connect them with wires. Type what you want the animation to do, hit render, and the AI streams CSS @keyframes back in real time. You see the SVG…

    Make SVGs interactive in React with 1 line▲54

    Hey HN I built svggles (npm: interactive-illustrations), a React utility that makes it easy to add playful, interactive SVGs to your frontend. It supports mouse-tracking, scroll, hover, and other common interactions, and it's designed to be lightweight and intuitive for React devs. The inspiration came from my time playing with p5.js — I loved how expressive and fun it was to create interactive visuals. But I also wanted to bring that kind of creative freedom to everyday frontend work, in a way that fits naturally into the React ecosystem. My goal is to help frontend developers make their…
