Coherence, the developer platform to end yak-shaving
Hey HN! I’m Zach, from Coherence (https://www.withcoherence.com/). We’re building software that provides an integrated way to write, preview, and deploy code from one simple configuration. Check out our explainer video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2YHVx8QsLg and a high level demo here: https://www.loom.com/share/072c2afd1099496298f69ab21fdf2820 We started Coherence because we found technology teams spent 30-40% of their time yak shaving and writing glue code, instead of building products our customers love. We don’t think every team…
In plain words
Coherence is a developer platform that integrates code writing, previewing, and deployment through a single configuration. Built for technology teams, it aims to reduce time spent on infrastructure setup and glue code by providing an all-in-one toolkit for the full application lifecycle from development to production. The platform streamlines workflows that typically consume significant developer time.

Hey HN! I’m Zach, from Coherence (https://www.withcoherence.com/). We’re building software that provides an integrated way to write, preview, and deploy code from one simple configuration. Check out our explainer video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2YHVx8QsLg and a high level demo here: https://www.loom.com/share/072c2afd1099496298f69ab21fdf2820 We started Coherence because we found technology teams spent 30-40% of their time yak shaving and writing glue code, instead of building products our customers love. We don’t think every team should have to build their own internal development platform, so we’re building the software we’d want to buy. Following the example of other great products like Replit, our toolkit is based on integration across the stages of an app’s lifecycle - from dev to production. Coherence provides one integrated dashboard with cloud development environments, automatic CI/CD, and full-stack environments for each branch (as well as production), all with one simple configuration. A developer can write, test, review, and deploy code from one interface with best practices built in. Devs are intuitively navigated to their own cloud resources when needed, eliminating time spent searching consoles for every log, metric, or configuration setting you might need. We currently support containerized full-stack web apps on AWS and Google Cloud. Unlike the PaaS category defined by Heroku, our goal is to help teams leverage the platforms provided by the best cloud providers, keeping the benefits of running in your own cloud account: unlimited extensibility, cost savings, compliance with audit requirements, and freedom to easily exit our platform without an impact to your systems. You can play around with a Coherence sandbox and get a taste of the developer experience at app.withcoherence.com/sandbox. If you like what you can see, you can also deploy an app into your AWS or GCP with one of our starter templates for a new project: app.withcoherence.com. We’re happy to support onboarding on a call or via Slack and we’d love to discuss what it would look like to migrate one of your existing apps to Coherence. We’re excited to get your feedback, so please feel free to drop us a note at [email protected]

Hey HN, I 3d scanned the interior of the Great Pyramid / Khufu's pyramid for the Giza Project this summer and just finished the guided version to share. Would love feedback and/or problems you encounter. I used both a Leica BLK 360 and Matterport Pro 2 to do the scanning and the Matterport SDK for the web viewer. Matterport's web display with Three.js has been the most accessible to a wide audience in the past (previous iterations are in Unity and Unreal, but difficult to download over slower connections). I've been interviewing social studies teachers around the 6th grade level to…

APIs are a little like the open road—always waiting, full of opportunity, but hardly utilized. So here’s America, composed of several APIs that paint a vivid, real-time picture of a good old-fashioned road trip. Get local classifieds and photos. Tune into local radio stations. Talk wit other drivers. And more. Exploring the country by car was an invaluable experience for me during my time in the states. I’ve since moved to Barcelona, and find myself missing the territory. This is my attempt at recreating the magic.
