Fill and sign PDF from any website with a single line of code
In plain words
SimplePDF is a developer tool that automates PDF form filling and signing across any website using a single line of code. Launched in late 2023, it simplifies the process of programmatically populating and signing PDF documents, making it useful for developers who need to integrate form completion workflows into their applications. The tool eliminates manual PDF handling by enabling code-based automation for these common document tasks.

Hi HN! I've been working on SimplePDF to solve a problem I encounter weekly: filling out non-editable PDFs [1] --- # About SimplePDF - The documents you load, edit, fill never see the light of my server, everything is processed locally – no remote uploading anything. This includes the PDF generation. - There are no analytics / third party tracking your every move (I do collect usage data, but it's fully anonymous and processed and stored on my server): therefore no annoying cookie banner. You can read more on the Privacy Policy [2] - If someone before you has filled the same document,…


- PMPrivatePDF – minimal PDF editor that runs in the browser2023 · github.com · ▲14
I created this tool to make it quick and easy to sign PDF contracts, without having to deal with installing additional software and without worrying that my PDFs will get uploaded to a third party. It supports the bare minimum for my most common usecases. It is not intended to be a full-featured PDF editor. Features include filling PDF forms, inserting images and text, and rotating PDFs. Check it out by either picking a PDF of your own - https://photown.github.io/private-pdf/, or with a preloaded sample PDF -…
- ICI curated 130 US PDF forms and made them fillable in browserFeb 2026 · simplepdf.com · ▲13
Hi HN! I built SimplePDF 7 years ago, with the vision from day one to help get rid of bureaucracy (I'm from France, I know what I'm talking about) Fast forward to this week where I finally released something I had on my mind for a long time: a repository of the main US forms that are ready to be filled, straight from the browser, as opposed to having to find a PDF tool online (or local). I focused on healthcare, ED, HR, Legal and IRS/Tax for now. On the tech-side, it's SimplePDF all the way down: client-side processing (the data / documents stay in your browser). I hope you find…

Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works. Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

Hey! I made Heynote entirely for my own use case. For many years, I always had an Emacs instance running with the scratch buffer open, even long after I had abandoned Emacs as my programming editor in favor of more recent IDE:s. The simplicity of having just one big scratch buffer appeals to me, but I still want to separate the different things I jot down somehow (without using tabs or similar). Previously, my solution was to insert a bunch of blank lines between the notes, but hitting C-A would still select the entire buffer. That's why I came up with the concept of "blocks", which turned…
