a 1MB iOS App: Background HTTP/WebDAV Servers, CrossPlatform File Share
I wrote a minimal iOS app called PocketServer (~1MB in download size) that creates persistent local HTTP/WebDAV servers which can actually run in the background. Functionalities: - Serve a folder via WebDAV — browse/add/delete files from others devices on the same network. - Host a static website or directory listing, accessible locally. - Share files cross-platform on the same network, no app needed on the receiving side. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pocketserver-local-server/id67...

Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
