  I made a website that converts YT videos into step-by-step guides2024 · stepify.tech · ▲271

  Hey HN, I've been working on this side project for the past month. It generates a step-by-step tutorial guide for YouTube videos that you can follow along without watching long videos. Best suited for tutorial videos but can work for other videos aswell. No BS. Just straight to the point. The guides are generated from pure transcript so you don't have to worry about it being AI. It's my first project as a total beginner. Something I had to do inorder to get out of tutorial hell. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or if you face any problems or bugs.

  Hey HN! I'm Sahil, founder of DeepReel (https://deepreel.com). The Problem We're Solving We all know video is critical for growth and engagement, but creating it is a huge bottleneck.

  Hey HN, TLDR: The tool automates the entire process. No scripting, no voice model training, no production headaches. Just paste an article and get a video with Peter and Stewie explaining it. I'm a self-taught dev (admittedly mediocre), currently between jobs and lately, I've been doom-scrolling news and way too many dense articles. The constant information overload was giving me serious anxiety!! I built it to: - make complex topics more digestible through humor - create a buffer between me and the constant news cycle - turn learning into something I actually looked forward to I normally…

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
