GlitchWard
Hey HN, I’m Lubos, a solo founder based in Slovakia. I’m building GlitchWard because I got tired of seeing SMBs and agencies running "naked" servers. Most small teams ignore server security not because they don't care, but because enterprise tools (Wiz, Datadog Security) are too expensive, and manual hardening (fail2ban, OS updates) eventually gets forgotten. I wanted a tool that creates a "self-defending" server, capable of stopping attacks even when I'm asleep. CURRENT STATUS: We officially launched yesterday. During our beta, we onboarded 20+ clients and the beacon is currently protecting…
GlitchWard launched on January 27, 2026 with 5 votes, #3,400 of 14,584 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.
What it does
Glitchward brings enterprise-grade server security to teams without enterprise budgets. Install one lightweight agent and get real-time vulnerability scanning, automated CIS compliance checks (50+ rules), and AI-powered security recommendations — all in under 10 minutes. Unlike Splunk or Datadog that cost $100K+ and take months to configure, Glitchward is simple: 149€/server/month, all features included, no consultants required. Server security that teams actually use.
In the maker’s words, at launch
LLM shield with deteministic, semantic and behavioral detection.

UniDeck2025 · unideck.app · ▲359Hi everyone! For the past few months we have improved upon our product called UniDeck, an app that allows you to connect different services and monitor their data.

- DADriftDB – an open source WebSocket backend for real-time apps2023 · driftdb.com · ▲367
Hey HN! I’ve written a bunch of WebSocket servers over the years to do simple things like state synchronization, WebRTC signaling, and notifying a client when a backend job was run. I realized that if I had a simple way to create a private, temporary, mini-redis that the client could talk to directly, it would save a lot of time. So we created DriftDB. In addition to the open source server that you can run yourself, we also provide https://jamsocket.live where you can use an instance we host on Cloudflare’s edge (~13ms round trip latency from my home in NY). You may have seen my…
wsgrokJan 2026 · wsgrok.com · ▲7I built it for myself because ngrok didn't let me add one more domain unless I paid $12 more. I probably should've looked for alternatives before building my own, but my grudge got in the way . Once I started, I wanted to make it better than the other options. Silly, I know. No one probably cares. I plan to open source it sometime next year because I’ve got other projects to finish first. It's free until I deplete my cloud credits, then it will switch to a tier-based model with a free option.

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
