What it does
Reimagine genealogy with a dynamic family web. Dear Ancestors allows you to instantly shift your tree's perspective to view history through the eyes of any relative. Go beyond basic dates with advanced event tagging (witnesses, godparents) and rich document archiving. Designed for privacy and depth: 100% user-owned data, no ads, and no clutter. A modern, calm experience for discovering and preserving your family connections.
Dear Ancestors is taking a pause while we build something better.
We've closed the doors for now while we work on the next chapter of Dear Ancestors — a quieter, simpler way to build your familyfrom dearancestors.com

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
