What it does

Most tools today focus on one part of a developer’s workflow — Notion for notes, Excalidraw for diagrams, Apple Notes for quick thoughts, Todoist for tasks, and various sticky-note or planning apps. Because of this, developers constantly switch between 5–7 different apps while working. DevBench is different because it brings all these pieces into one unified workspace built specifically for developers.

DevBench — an open-source desktop workbench for API testing, data utilities, Kubernetes, Docker, terminals, notes, and planning.

API testing, JSON utilities, Kubernetes and Docker tools, integrated terminals, notes, and planning — one native app. No accounts. Your data stays local. Not a hosted platform — a desktop app you install once. These are the areas people open most often. Send REST requests, save collections, import cURL and Postman exports. Preview JSON responses, copy headers, keep history on disk. Browse pods across clusters, tail logs in the panel, inspect env vars, and open shells in DevShell — local, Kubernetes, or Docker — with real terminal sessions. Format and minify JSON, diff two payloads, generate schemas, convert CSV and YAML, encode Base64 — Monaco editors throughout, built for quick copy-paste…from devbench.in

    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…

    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
