  DataSheetGrid, an Airtable-like React component2023 · react-datasheet-grid.netlify.app · ▲342

  I've built and have been maintaining a React component that renders an Airtable / Notion-like component for a few years. This can be seen as an where the value is an array of objects. You can then specify any number of columns that are each responsible for rendering an input for a specific key. The component handles all accessibility features like keyboard navigation, adding / removing rows, context menu, virtualization... If you ever need your users to input long lists of data, this might be a good way to render the form!

  Talanoa▲340

  Hi 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…

  Warp, a Rust-based terminal▲946

  Hi HN community, I’m Zach, founder and CEO of Warp, and am excited to show you Warp, a fast Rust-based terminal that’s easy to use and built for teams. As of today, Warp is in public beta and any Mac user can download it. It works with bash, zsh, and fish. The terminal’s teletype-like interface has made it hard for the CLI to thrive. After 20 years of programming, I still find it hard to copy a command’s output; I always forget how to use `tar`; and I always have to relearn how to move my cursor. To fix fundamental accessibility issues, I believe we need to start innovating on the terminal,…
