AutoDocument – Multi-Source Document Generation
Hi there, this post is introducing AutoDocument, a free and open-source document generating web app that connects spreadsheets, databases and user forms into documents such as Microsoft Word and PDFs. It's based on fantastic open sources libraries like https://github.com/elapouya/python-docx-template and headless LibreOffice. Mail Merge is a pain because it: - Only converts from Excel to Word - Uses special field objects in the Word document - Requires a Microsoft Office License - Has limited templating options AutoDocument is a free and easily installable web app that…
AutoDocument – Multi-Source Document Generation launched on August 9, 2024 with 7 votes, #2,085 of 5,471 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 2 years on.
What it does
Effortlessly Automate, Template and Scale your document processes with AutoDocument. S3, SharePoint, Filesystems or just upload and download on the fly. More than just inserting values into fields: use if, for, while controls and form inputs. Convert each record of a SQL Query into a PDF... or maybe just as a table inside 1 PDF? orfrom autodocument.app

Talanoa▲341Hi 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 there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…
