An opinionated and statically-typed TypeScript SDK generator

Hi Hacker News! My name is Sagar, I’m working on a startup called Speakeasy - we’re making all APIs self-service. The platform is currently in beta, but we’re independently launching this tool which you can use to generate language-idiomatic, statically-typed TS SDKs from any public OpenAPI schemas. We hope to continue iterating on this to give devs a way to easily generate high fidelity client SDKs for all the major languages. Inspiration for this product is from past experiences struggling with OpenAPI. I was originally optimistic about using the OpenAPI tools to build out our offering,…

In plain words

Speakeasy's TypeScript SDK generator automatically creates language-idiomatic, statically-typed SDKs from OpenAPI schemas. Built for developers who need high-quality client libraries, it addresses gaps in existing OpenAPI tooling by prioritizing low dependencies and a better developer experience. The tool works with any public OpenAPI schema and is designed as a foundation for generating SDKs across multiple programming languages.

The AI control plane for discovering, securing, and governing AI agents, MCP servers, and AI applications across your enterprise.

The AI control plane to understand how AI is used, define what it can access, and enforce security policy across every agent, MCP server, and Skill in your enterprise. AI spreads team by team. Nobody can list every agent, MCP server, and Skill in use Policies live in wiki pages and vary by team. There's no way to enforce them or prove they were followed We built our access controls on IAM. When we rolled out agents, the controls broke down. Speakeasy let us extend our identity management to all our AI usage. Every AI agent, MCP server, and Skill in your enterprise runs through one governed path. Understand how each is used, define what it can access, and enforce those rules on every action.…from easysdk.xyz

    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…

    Hi Hacker News! Patrick and Elias here. We built an SDK / Documentation generator for REST APIs. The link included shows the shiny output of our system: the docs! We generated 5 SDKs and docs from the Hacker News OpenAPI we found on GitHub. If you write code in Python, Typescript, Go, Ruby, or Rust, we’d love for you to try an SDK out! If you want to generate SDKs for your own API try our tool here: https://github.com/Sideko-Inc/sideko We are both software engineers, and we built this tool because we were spending too much time writing API integrations, supporting…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results.
