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…

Daffodil – Open-Source Ecommerce Framework to connect to any platform2025 · github.com · ▲66Hello everyone! I’ve been building an Open Source Ecommerce framework for Angular called Daffodil. I think Daffodil is really cool because it allows you to connect to any arbitrary ecommerce platform. I’ve been hacking away at it slowly (for 7 years now) as I’ve had time and it's finally feeling “ready”. I would love feedback from anyone who’s spent any time in ecommerce (especially as a frontend developer). For those who are not javascript ecosystem devs, here’s a demo of the concept: https://demo.daff.io/ For those who are familiar with Angular, you can just run the…
YourNextStore – an open-source Shopify with Stripe as the back end2024 · github.com · ▲285We’re building Your Next Store, a modern, ultra-fast, open-source commerce in Next.js with Stripe as the backend - no DB required. Selling online is often more complex than it needs to be. Setting up a storefront with great performance can feel daunting and time-consuming. There are many plugins, libraries, etc - the choice can be overwhelming. Plus, in e-commerce, the backend and frontend are often written in different languages (e.g., PHP, Python, or Ruby for the backend). This increases the complexity and makes code management more challenging, especially for teams. After working in…


OverleadFeb 2026 · overlead.co · ▲146Here's the problem: I launched two products. I wrote blog posts. I posted on X, built in public. I tried running ads. And you know what actually got me customers? Replying to someone on Reddit who asked, "What's the best tool for this?" One reply. Three signups. I felt like an idiot for not doing it sooner. But here's the issue: I don't have time to refresh Reddit all day looking for these posts. I have products to build. Bugs to fix. Emails to answer. Life to live. So I built Overlead to do the searching for me. Overlead scans Reddit, Quora, and Hacker News (and many more to come) for…

Talanoa▲346Hi 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…

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…

Autism Simulator▲779Hey 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…
