Heap – save full-page local archives of webpages with just one click

Heap is a macOS app for creating full-page local offline archives of webpages in various formats with a single click. It's a menubar only app and a single right-click creates full-sized image screenshot, PDF, Markdown, HTML, and WebArchive. It can also be configured to archive videos, zip files etc using AppleScript. You can archive multiple links too by dragging and dropping a text string or text file containing the links. It can do things like run JavaScript on the website before archiving, signing in with user accounts before archiving, and running an Apple Shortcut post archiving. You…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Heap is a macOS app for creating full-page local offline archives of webpages in various formats with a single click. It's a menubar only app and a single right-click creates full-sized image screenshot, PDF, Markdown, HTML, and WebArchive. It can also be configured to archive videos, zip files etc using AppleScript. You can archive multiple links too by dragging and dropping a text string or text file containing the links. It can do things like run JavaScript on the website before archiving, signing in with user accounts before archiving, and running an Apple Shortcut post archiving. You can configure the directory where the archives are stored locally. So, this way, it can sync the archive directory with your other devices automatically via iCloud/Google Drive/Dropbox etc. It also provides single-click way to access archives of the front most browser link on the Wayback Machine (archive.org) or Archive.today. I feel like people who are into data hoarding and self host would find this very helpful. Heap's free version has all the features available except it puts a watermark in the archive which can be removed with a one-time-only in app purchase. I am also the developer of HACK (hacker news app for iOS, macOS and Android) and have a reputation for not using ads, tracking, analytics, or subscriptions.

    It's a macOS menu bar app that reads the text of your focused window every few seconds through the Accessibility API. No screenshots, no video, or OCR. It writes plain markdown, one file per day, into a folder you choose. Point Claude Code (or anything with file access) at the folder and ask "what did I work on Tuesday?" or have it build memory about your projects. The folder contains an AGENTS.md explaining the format to the model. Thought it might be useful for someone so chucked it up on GitHub

  • Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

    Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jameshard.ing&#x2F;pilot&#x2F;globes&#x2F;all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

    I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits&#x2F;month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
