Hey HN, we want to share HelixDB (https://github.com/HelixDB/helix-db/), a project a college friend and I are working on. It’s a new database that natively intertwines graph and vector types, without sacrificing performance. It’s written in Rust and our initial focus is on supporting RAG. Here’s a video runthrough: https://screen.studio/share/szgQu3yq. Why a hybrid? Vector databases are useful for similarity queries, while graph databases are useful for relationship queries. Each stores data in a way that’s best for its main type of query (e.g.…

Hi HN ! Alex here. I'm excited to show you Jinbase (https://github.com/pyrustic/jinbase), my multi-model transactional embedded database. Almost a year ago, I introduced Paradict [1], my take on multi-format streaming serialization. Given its readability, the Paradict text format appears de facto as an interesting data format for config files. But using Paradict to manage config files would end up cluttering its programming interface and making it confusing for users who still have choices of alternative libraries (TOML, INI File, etc.) dedicated to config files. So I…
- HNHelixDB – Native graph and vector types for RAG and retrieval2025 · github.com · ▲25
Hey HN! We're college friends building HelixDB. It's a database that natively supports both graph and vector types. It’s designed for AI-driven apps like RAG, vector search, code indexing, and agent frameworks where you need both explicit relationships and similarity. We came up with the idea for Helix at university, while building a graph database as a side project in Rust. Reading some research papers on RAG setups, I realised there was a lot of infrastructure setup to get started. You need your own server, a graph database, a vector database and then some bespoke middleman software to…

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
