I built an app to manage animal adoption easily (Brazil-only)
Hello HN, I’ve always been passionate about animal welfare, and after noticing the challenges faced by both adopters and shelters, I decided to create PetsRescue. It’s a web app that simplifies the animal adoption process, making it easier for people to find and adopt pets in need. The goal was to create a platform that’s user-friendly, secure, and accessible to everyone who wants to make a difference in the lives of animals. I’d love to hear your feedback on it. Cheers,
I built an app to manage animal adoption easily (Brazil-only) launched on August 29, 2024 with 5 votes, #2,614 of 5,471 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 2 years on.

I have a rescue dog - a 6 year old German Shepherd mix. When we rescued him I couldn't believe how many animals there were at all the shelters and animal control centers, and how hard it was to find out about them. I built a simple site (https://rescueapet.benswork.space) which connects you with available dogs and cats in your area :-) It uses data from local shelters and pulls it all into one place, so you can make a shortlist of animals, then reach out to the shelter to adopt. I was honestly surprised that something like this didn't already exist. Let me know what you think!

Hey there HN! We’re Joe and Stopa, and today we’re open sourcing InstantDB, a client-side database that makes it easy to build real-time and collaborative apps like Notion and Figma. Building modern apps these days involves a lot of schleps. For a basic CRUD app you need to spin up servers, wire up endpoints, integrate auth, add permissions, and then marshal data from the backend to the frontend and back again. If you want to deliver a buttery smooth user experience, you’ll need to add optimistic updates and rollbacks. We do these steps over and over for every feature we build, which can…
