What it does
Automate the generation of documents from a universal templating engine. Create templates with your favourite text editor, and add dynamic content with Carbone tags (text, colours, images, graphs). Anybody can design beautiful documents, not only developers.
Easily integrate the generation of PDF, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, ODT, PPTX, ODS, CSV and XML reports and documents into your applications, using data from your existing JSON APIs. The easy-to-implement template concept frees you from design constraints, with a No/Low code approach.
We turn your existing JSON data into PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODS, HTML, ... Use virtually any document as a template docx, odt, html, docx, xlsx, pptx, ... Preserve your existing data structure regardless of the template design. Our customers spend from a few weeks to less than 5 minutes updating their reports. Seamlessly switch between Cloud, On-Premise, AWS, and Docker without altering your codebase. ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot and Gemini draft beautifully. Carbone is the engine that turns their output into the real file: it renders industry-grade PDF, DOCX, XLSX and PPTX, deterministic and byte-identical every time , from templates anyone can design and edit. No code required. Plug Carbone…from carbone.io

Talanoa▲340Hi 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…
