  • Prism.Tools – Free and privacy-focused developer utilitiesJan 2026 · blgardner.github.io · ▲380

    Hi HN, I'm Barry and I've built Prism.Tools (https://blgardner.github.io/prism.tools/) – a collection of client-side developer utilities that respect your privacy. Many of these tools were used way back in the days when I ran a BBS and started my communities first ISP, serving three local communities with Dial-Up Internet, Web Hosting etc. The tools have been refined to reflect the changes in tech since then and designed for the Novice and Pro alike. As I locate more tools others may find useful I will refine and add them to the collection. Use them, Share them, or not.…

    Garnet – Distributed Python on Kubernetes2021 · ▲5

    Garnet (https://garnet.ai) is a framework to run distributed and parallel Python on Kubernetes. We make it easy to scale from laptop to cluster, without requiring any devops work. Garnet plugs into any existing Python environment (notebook, IDE, CI/CD pipelines, custom apps) using a lightweight client library, and enables users to scale popular data/ml libraries (including pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, XGBoost, etc.) and custom code to a remote cluster for execution. Under the hood, we natively wire up Dask with Kubernetes for scheduling, which brings advantages such as…

  • Rot - Offline secrets management2023 · github.com · ▲116

    Finally open sourced an internal tool we've been using for managing secrets. It's similar to SOPS, but more opinionated, easier to configure/use correctly, and produces nicer git diffs. It also supports one-way encryption, so you don't have to know the private key to add secrets.

  • Infisical – open-source secrets manager2022 · github.com · ▲232

    Last month, we open-sourced Infisical (https://github.com/Infisical/infisical) - a simple, end-to-end encrypted tool to sync environment variables across your team and infrastructure. You can use it to store environment variables and inject them into your applications locally or into CI/CD and production infrastructure. It can be used with any language/framework and is platform independent with a super easy setup. We know secret managers exist but, in our experience, they’re too complicated, not comprehensive, not user-friendly, or a mix of all three — other…

  • Talanoa▲346

    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…
