In plain words

Condor is an Erlang library for building scalable TCP servers. It provides developers with tools to construct server applications that can handle multiple concurrent connections efficiently. The library leverages Erlang's actor-based concurrency model to enable horizontal scaling. It is designed for software engineers who need to build robust, high-performance network services in Erlang.

  • Visual flow-based programming for Erlang, inspired by Node-RED2025 · github.com · ▲243

    Hi There, Erlang-RED has been my project for the last couple of months and I would love to get some feedback from the HN community. The idea is to take advantage of Erlangs message passing and low overhead processes to have true concurrency in Node-RED flows. Plus also to bring low-code visual flow-based programming to Erlang.

  • Smart model routing directly in Claude, Codex and CursorJun 2026 · github.com · ▲216

    We built a model router that plugs into coding agents (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, etc.) and intelligently sends requests to the best model to serve them. Here's a quick demo of running it locally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isKhAyivtfM. At Weave, we write most of our code with AI, and it's been getting more expensive. This came to a head when Opus 4.7 was released and, thanks to its tokenizer changes, our costs shot up. We knew we didn't need Opus for everything but we didn't want to lose out on the intelligence for the cases where you really need it. So we decided…
