Hologram, photo management and culling built with Tauri

What it does

Pro-grade photo gallery. Contribute to ThatXliner/Hologram development by creating an account on GitHub.

A local-first photo culling and management workspace for photographers who want control of their files. Hologram reads the folders you already own and gives you a fast, dense workspace for turning a shoot into a set of keepers. It does not require a cloud library, proprietary photo vault, or heavyweight editing catalog. Point it at a folder. Hologram streams previews, pairs RAWs with their camera JPEGs, exposes the metadata behind every frame, and keeps the next decision one key away. Hologram is under active development. Nightly builds are usable, but expect rough edges and evolving workflows. AutoCull groups bursts and visually similar frames, produces SELECT / MAYBE / REJECT /…from github.com

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hello Hacker News photographers! Yes, this is essentially my take on photo colling and management, similar to the features that Lightroom and Darktable already have. Because I shoot in JPEG+RAW, my workflow looks like me going through my JPEG images and then eliminating the JPEGs I don't like afterwards in addition…

  I completed shipping my desktop app2025 · pimosa.app · ▲526

  Hi, I'm a developer and first time i shipped the real product after observing the startups and indie hackers community for years. I had made so many useless apps [you should check my website https://ansh.life], but this time I built a very useful product that has a number of super easy-to-use tools in one app for video, music, and photo files. Users can compress, convert, resize, and do so much more with easy-to-use tools. Background: I developed a frame-by-frame video cropper to upload cropped landscape videos to Instagram Reels. However, it required FFmpeg, and as a noob video…

  I made presets for Darktable which mimic Fujifilm's Film SimulationsJan 2026 · jssfr.de · ▲6

  Fujifilm cameras make really beautiful JPEGs thanks to their Film Simulation feature (where they mimic the look of certain analogue film types), but sometimes I want to do things for which you need the RAW files (like sharpening or local contrast effects or white balance fixes or whatever else would suffer under 8-bit/channel and/or JPEG artifacts). darktable is my RAW editor of choice, but it doesn't make your edits look like the out-of-camera JPEGs by default. Quite the contrary, the defaults generally need some love to bring out a nice edit of an image. To solve (pun intended)…

  I replaced a $120k bowling center system with $1,600 in ESP32s▲2,935

  I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

  Bento - An entire PowerPoint in one HTML file (edit+view+data+collab)▲1,033

  Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  Getting GLM 5.2 running on my slow computer▲937

  A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

  OpenSEO▲928

  Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
