Daffodil – Open-Source Ecommerce Front End, Now with Shopify
Hello again everyone! I’m posting again to say thanks for the feedback, comments and insights on my last post. It was great feedback and I really appreciate it. The support I have received from the open source community the past few weeks has been astounding. I’ve taken all of the feedback to heart and we’ve done a lot of work to improve the documentation the past few weeks (it's still work in progress) on top of adding more features to the demo! I wanted to post an update for the most recent release - v0.90.0 - which brings support for Angular 20 and improved support for Shopify! For devs…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hello again everyone! I’m posting again to say thanks for the feedback, comments and insights on my last post. It was great feedback and I really appreciate it. The support I have received from the open source community the past few weeks has been astounding. I’ve taken all of the feedback to heart and we’ve done a lot of work to improve the documentation the past few weeks (it's still work in progress) on top of adding more features to the demo! I wanted to post an update for the most recent release - v0.90.0 - which brings support for Angular 20 and improved support for Shopify! For devs that want to generate storefronts that can swap back and forth between ecommerce platforms, you can now add Shopify to the list! We added new and improved drivers for Shopify for @daffodil/navigation and @daffodil/product. On top of that, we added further support to the @daffodil/commerce schematic to make scaffolding out storefronts with these new features easier as well. Finally, you can also now choose (when generating your own storefronts with the schematic) which platform you’re targeting so that you don’t have to eliminate the superfluous demo code yourself when getting started. Repo is here: https://github.com/graycoreio/daffodil You can see a demo of what you get from the schematic (and the concept of what Daffodil is): here: https://demo.daff.io/ For those with node installed, you can just run the following to get exactly the demo above: ```ts npx @angular/cli@20 new my-project --style=scss --routing=true ng add @daffodil/commerce ``` For those who didn’t see my last post, we’re trying to solve for the following problem: I absolutely hate having to learn a new ecommerce platform. We have drivers for printers, mice, keyboards, microphones, and many other physical widgets in the operating system, why not have them for ecommerce software? It’s not that I hate the existing platforms, their UIs or APIs, it's that every platform repeats the same concepts and I always have to learn some new fangled way of doing the same thing. I’ve long desired for these platforms to act more like operating systems on the Web than like custom built software. Ideally, I would like to call them through a standard interface and forget about their existence beyond that. Any suggestions for drivers and platforms are welcome, though I can’t promise I will implement them. :)

Hi guys, I've created an open source web builder framework (https://grapesjs.com) years ago, which I'm still maintaining, and now I'm excited to publish a side project based on it, Grapedrop (https://grapedrop.com). It's a simple web page builder which allows you to design and publish your web pages very quickly. The project is still in beta with a lot of stuff to improve but I'd really like to share it and hear what people think about it and maybe also get some constructive feedback.

Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

I've been working on an app in my spare time for about the past 6 months in between my day job and taking care of my 10 month old daughter. I'm launching a beta today and would love to get the communities feedback. It's called Pagify and it's an app that allows you to build custom Facebook tabs using their new iframe method. I'm quite proud of the fact that I actually got this out the door. This past year my life has been quite hectic. Let me know your thoughts and give me a "Like" if so inclined :). Thanks View the app at http://pagifyapp.com Skip the Marketing stuff and go straight to the…

I went down the rabbit hole on a side project and ended up building this: Strange Attractors(https://blog.shashanktomar.com/posts/strange-attractors). It’s built with three.js. Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
