GraphQL Zero – AIs Mocking APIs

I made an API mocking tool that imports a schema, populates fake data, then runs a local server. This is helpful for testing APIs or advanced prototyping. A demo video is here: https://www.loom.com/share/abad2cdf325e4e0b9addea1e14406166?... There’s two fun things about this tool 1. the complete lack of configs and schema annotations. i.e. you don’t need to learn faker-js. You just need your existing GraphQL schema and to to swap out the server URL in your frontend code. 2. the depth. Your fake objects have relationships to other fake objects. And in proxy mode, real…

    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…

  • Heya HN, I've been working on a reddit-like platform as my primary side project for the last few years. Doing a (very) soft launch today, mainly because I want to use it to encourage discussion of alternatives. How non.io works: 1. Free to browse, paid to interact. 2. Minimum subscription is $2 (though you can choose more). I take $1 to run the servers, everything left gets split evenly between everything you upvote that month. It's a simple model, but I hope it's a better one than the freemium model we've been relying on for the last few years. Fundamentally I feel like any ad-supported…
