What it does

AI agents can write your app — shipping it is still the hard part: build toolchains, tests, signing, releases, publishing. AppRelay is one native Mac & Windows console that does all of it. Point it at a folder and it auto-detects 25 toolchains. Build ≠ Distribute — one build fans out to 27 destinations (App Store, Play, Vercel & more). Runs 100% on your machine: no account, no cloud, no subscription. iOS & Android companion included.

One console on Mac & Windows for developers and teams to build, run, test, and ship every project — no more juggling Xcode schemes, Gradle flags, and deploy scripts.

Stop juggling Xcode schemes, gradlew flags, and half-remembered deploy scripts. AppRelay puts every project's build, run, test, and release in one native console on Mac and Windows — with nothing compiled in. …and 27 distribution channels — App Store & TestFlight, Play & Firebase, Vercel · Netlify · Cloudflare · S3, your own servers over SFTP/rsync, plus npm, Homebrew, Docker, PyPI, crates.io and more. A lane says how a project builds. Distributions say where each build goes. One build, many destinations — adding one is an entry, never a code change. Point AppRelay at a folder and every project gets the same command center — no schemes to remember, no scripts to hunt down. Current version…from apprelay.io

    Appaca is my third pivot. A couple of years ago, I started working on an idea on no-code platform that generates code. The goal is to help devs and agencies ship products faster for their clients. I went through Antler startup accelerator and got initial funding. I was working on the right problem, but wrong solution. Instead of no-code, I should have jumped into LLM a lot earlier. I felt defeated when Lovable, Base44, and Bolt came out strong, showing the world what LLMs can do in software development. No one cared about my product anymore. I pivoted my startup second time after that, to an…

    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…

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  • A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

    Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
