AS Level Chemistry Lab Simulator

Vibe-coded a Chemistry Lab Simulator — open-sourcing it (alpha) Built a browser-based virtual chemistry lab using Claude Code, with the hope that it could help Cambridge AS Level (Class XI) students try experiments and attempt past paper questions without needing a real lab. Features were developed with continuous input and testing from an AS Level student. Students from other boards can also use the Free Lab section for individual chemical tests.

AS Level Chemistry Lab Simulator launched on February 23, 2026 with 10 votes, #1,046 of 16,627 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches.

In plain words

AS Level Chemistry Lab Simulator is a browser-based virtual chemistry laboratory designed to help Cambridge AS Level and Class XI students conduct experiments and work through past paper questions without access to a physical lab. Built using Claude Code and currently in alpha, it offers features developed with input from AS Level students. The platform includes a Free Lab section where students from other examination boards can perform individual chemical tests.

  • I built a refinery simulator game to explain job to my kidsMar 2026 · fuelingcuriosity.com · ▲127

    Hi HN, I’m a chemical engineer and I manage logistics at a refinery down in Texas. Whenever I try to explain downstream operations to people outside the industry (including my kids), I usually get blank stares. I wanted to build something that visualizes the concepts and chemistry of a plant without completely dumbing down the science, so I put together this 5-minute browser game. Here's a simple runthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=is-moBz6upU. I pushed to get through a full product pathway to show the V-804 replay. I am not a software developer by trade, so I relied…

    It was quite interesting to vibe code this artifact. I learned some basic ideas about commitment scheme and hash cryptography in the half and hour spent on this. One of the few times vibe coding left me feeling enriched rather than drained. What do you think?

    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…

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
