Hedit

What it does

Hedit is a fast, modern hosts file editor for macOS and Linux. Hedit focuses on a clean UI, (almost) native performance, and automatic syncing from remote hosts sources. It's also open source.

Fast and intuitive hosts file editor with syntax highlighting, multiple files, and validation. The modern tool for who care about their workflow.

Fast and intuitive hosts file management. Edit, manage, and organize your hosts entries with a beautiful and modern interface. Manage multiple hosts files and activate them with a single click. Import hosts files from remote URLs and keep them updated automatically. Modern, clean design that doesn't get in your way. Dark & light themes. I created Hedit after using an outdated hosts file editor that didn't support Apple Silicon. I wanted a modern, user-friendly alternative that works seamlessly on today'sfrom hedit.app

  Fresh – A new terminal editor built in RustDec 2025 · sinelaw.github.io · ▲187

  I built Fresh to challenge the status quo that terminal editing must require a steep learning curve or endless configuration. My goal was to create a fast, resource-efficient TUI editor with the usability and features of a modern GUI editor (like a command palette, mouse support, and LSP integration). Core Philosophy: - Ease-of-Use: Fundamentally non-modal. Prioritizes standard keybindings and a minimal learning curve. - Efficiency: Uses a lazy-loading piece tree to avoid loading huge files into RAM - reads only what's needed for user interactions. Coded in Rust. - Extensibility: Uses…

  Hexi – Modern header-only network binary serialisation for C++2025 · github.com · ▲118

  Over the last few years, I've needed an easy way to quickly serialise and deserialise various network protocols safely and efficiently. Most of the libraries that existed at the time were either quite heavy, had less than stellar performance, or were an abstraction level above what I was looking for. I decided to put together my own class to do the job, starting with an easy, low-overhead way to move bytes in and out of arbitrary buffers. Along the way, it picked up useful bits and pieces, such as buffer structures and allocators that made the byte shuffling faster, often being able to do it…

  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…

  I spent 3 years reverse-engineering a 40 yo stock market sim from 1986▲721

  Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
