Context.dev▲814Hello, My name is Yahia, I've been working on scraping products for a long time and maintain a couple of free sites in my spare time (E.g. knifegeek.io) What prompted this is i've rebuilt scraping infra at every company I've started and finally just made it a product. Pass a URL, get clean markdown, html, images, sitemap or pass a domain, get logos, colors, socials, industry data. Goal is to offer a better service than VC funded competitors at a fraction of the cost. Stealth is included and automatic at no additional cost (normally an upcharge by alternatives). Would love your honest thoughts.

Hello HN! I'm the creator and solo developer of Extension.js, a development tool for browser extensions with built-in support for TypeScript, WebAssembly, React, and modern JavaScript. Developers use it to spend less time configuring the compilation config or learning new frameworks and more time actually writing code. Most projects similar to Extension.js rely on some sort of abstraction or configuration to get started, making the initial development process slow given the extra learning curve and setup guidelines. By using Extension.js, adding the package to your npm scripts is all it…

This past quarter has been awash with sophisticated npm supply chain attacks like [Shai-Hulud](https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2025/09/23/widesprea...() and the [Chalk/debug Compromise](https://www.wiz.io/blog/widespread-npm-supply-chain-attack-b...). This CLI helps protect users from recently compromised packages by only downloading packages that have been public for a while (default is 90 days or older). Install: npm install -g @dendronhq/safe-npm Usage: safe-npm install react@^18 lodash How it works: - Queries…

I'm working on a CLI that helps you create the boilerplate of your project in multiple languages and frameworks. In case of front-end frameworks/libraries, with cli you'll be able to create the project, set up git on your local, add the UI-framework, testing framework, and linting, and in the future releases you'll be able to even add pre-designed components. The CLI currently supports React, Angular, Vue, Svelte and Node.js will be released today. Also soon, you'll be able to deploy your applications to AWS with a single command. Appreciate your feedbacks and all the contributions are…

Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep Here. We were tired of creating alerts for our applications, so we've built an open-source GitHub Bot that lets you write application alerts using plain English. The code is open-sourced: https://github.com/keephq/keep so you can review it yourself. Every developer and DevOps professional is familiar with the fact that in order to ensure your application works in production, you need to access your observability tool's user interface (such as Grafana, Datadog, New Relic, etc.) and carefully determine how to create alerts that…

Hi HN! We’re excited to share our new code generator that lets you ship high-quality TypeScript SDKs, that your users will love, from your OpenAPI documents. Our ongoing goal is to help you build one SDK that runs anywhere modern JavaScript runs. This includes new runtimes like Deno and Bun in addition to the ever-popular Node.js. Additionally, the popularity of AI has meant server-sent events and file streaming are also commonplace - we wanted to cover these use cases too. This explosion in new runtimes and ways of interacting with APIs shifts cognitive burden on API developers often having…

Hey HN, I wanted to share a UI toolkit project I’ve been working on recently, born out of how difficult I found it to build a great UX on top of LLMs, and keep application state in sync. I’ve built: - A React/JS front-end library for conversational interfaces, which makes it super easy to bootstrap AI assistants and ChatGPT style UX: https://github.com/nlkitai/nlux - A set of adapters that simplify integration with AI backends such as LangServe and HuggingFace The library is highly configurable, easy to theme, supports markdown streaming (that was tough to get…

Hi HN, Yesterday I live streamed myself for 6 hours building this from scratch. It’s an AI agent that uses Llama 2 (so far the 13b chat model) to generate a full react codebase from a single prompt. It had a “dev loop” that iterates on your feedback and resolves dependencies. In the end it kinda worked and I got excited so wanted to post here haha. Long story short a viewer on my discord suggested I build in of these and I just had to look into how these work (inspired by GPT Engineer and AutoGPT) I wanted to work on a more specific downstream task so I focused on web dev. Llama 2 isn’t the…
