Directo

Hi HN! I built Directo to solve a problem we had at work: scattered service links across Confluence, Slack, wikis, and everyone's bookmarks. What it does: - Single YAML config for all service links (Git-based, version-controlled) - Real-time HTTP health checks (no more clicking 404s) - Multi-environment support (prod/staging/dev) - Smart filtering and search - Self-hosted, Docker-ready Key differentiator: It's NOT a service catalog or monitoring tool. It's just a clean dashboard for links you already have, with health checks to catch stale URLs. Built with React + TypeScript, works…

Directo launched on March 6, 2026 with 8 votes, #1,340 of 23,380 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches.

    Hello, My name is Yahia, I've been working on scraping products for a long time and maintain a couple of free sites in my spare time (E.g. knifegeek.io) What prompted this is i've rebuilt scraping infra at every company I've started and finally just made it a product. Pass a URL, get clean markdown, html, images, sitemap or pass a domain, get logos, colors, socials, industry data. Goal is to offer a better service than VC funded competitors at a fraction of the cost. Stealth is included and automatic at no additional cost (normally an upcharge by alternatives). Would love your honest thoughts.

    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…
