Hotcore – Reverse proxy configured with command, not config files

What it does

HoTCo:RE is an HTTP(S) reverse proxy that routes requests based on the domain name. You can spend time to learn how to setup & configure a tool like nginx, HAProxy, Traefik, or maybe Caddy? You can ask ChatGPT or Claude to guide you through the process. $ curl -fsSL https://judi.systems/hotcore/install.sh | bash In about 5 seconds, hotcore will be up and running! $ hotcore add a-app.com 8080 $ hotcore add b-app.com 9000 That's it! You can now access your apps at https://a-app.com and https://b-app.com . You're basically done. There's really not much else to learn or configure. HoTCo:RE is part of our effort to make self-hosting easy and painless. That's why it is designed to be low touch &…from judi.systems

  I'm rewriting a web server written in Rust for speed and ease of use2025 · ferron.sh · ▲68

  Hello! I got quite some feedback on a web server I'm building, so I'm rewriting the server to be faster and easier to use. I (and maybe some other contributors?) have optimized the web server performance, especially for static file serving and reverse proxying (the last use case I optimized for very recently). I also picked a different configuration format and specification, what I believe is easier to write. Automatic TLS is also enabled by default out of the box, you don't need to even enable it manually, like it was in the original server I was building. Yesterday, I released the first…

  Local development with .local domains and HTTPS2023 · localcan.com · ▲84

  Hi HN! I'm Jarek, and I've built this tool that allows publishing .local domains on the local network using mDNS. It also has a reverse proxy that handles HTTPS termination and port forwarding. I'm working on adding more features, like an index page with all available domains or allowing proxy redirects, so you could redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback!

  I'm an airline pilot – I built interactive graphs/globes of my flights▲1,539

  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://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

  Workout.cool – Open-source fitness coaching platform▲827

  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/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…
