Hupreter – Create apps by describing them in English
Hi HN! Fernando here. A few months ago [1], I shared Hupreter (https://hupreter.com) with you all and now I am finally opening it up so that everyone can try it for free. The goal is to let users create apps and process data effortlessly, by just describing what the computer should do, in spoken English. We have made a lot of progress since the first post, and even though it is far from perfect, I really want to see how people use it and get feedback. In terms of creating apps, it supports persisting data (you can store/retrieve values), if statements, while loops, etc. For…

In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi HN! Fernando here. A few months ago [1], I shared Hupreter (https://hupreter.com) with you all and now I am finally opening it up so that everyone can try it for free. The goal is to let users create apps and process data effortlessly, by just describing what the computer should do, in spoken English. We have made a lot of progress since the first post, and even though it is far from perfect, I really want to see how people use it and get feedback. In terms of creating apps, it supports persisting data (you can store/retrieve values), if statements, while loops, etc. For data processing, we currently support uploading tables, calculating the median/variance/etc., plotting, and more. And we will be improving all of those in the coming days. For example, you can tell Hupreter: Given the table nba_players, calculate the average value in the column "points". More examples are available here: https://hupreter.blog/ Thanks for your time!

- AFApp for learning how to write Japanese2012 · ▲55
I'm a long time lurker that recently quit my job to work on my own projects, a lot due to the inspiration from Hacker News. Now I have published my first serious project, an app for learning how to write Japanese characters. It's the app I always wanted but couldn't find when I was studying. It tries to be simple to use, you just start the quiz and go with the flow. There's no need to plan and manage your studies, and it uses spaced repetition for better retention. There's a promo page with more details up at http://www.kanjibyhand.com. It's only for Android so far. The free version includes…

- PAPhrasing.app – learn and maintain multiple languagesNov 2025 · phrasing.app · ▲7
Happy Friday HN - For the past two years, I’ve been working on http://phrasing.app, a language learning application that makes it simple to learn and maintain multiple languages. I built Phrasing for four main reasons: 1. *I wanted an app to learn multiple languages in parallel.* I don’t want to have to choose between improving a language I speak or learning a new language. I just want to open an app and ‘do languages’, and let technology decide what’s most effective for my goals 2. *I wanted an app that was as pleasant to use as it was effective.* was I was tired of choosing…
