I made a fetch client builder to make API calls simpler and safer
I built this library because I kept rewriting the same fetch wrapper for every project. Each time, I needed the same core features: - Make fetch throw errors to integrate smoothly with libraries like TanStack Query - Add sensible defaults to the Fetch API, like a base URL and authentication headers - Validate responses for type safety when OpenAPI isn’t an option I also wanted the library to feel exactly like using fetch — no new API to learn, and no extra friction for my teammates. While there are other great options out there, I found many were either too rigid or too bulky. Doesn’t it…

Instant API – Build type-safe web APIs with JavaScript2023 · github.com · ▲102Hey there HN! I just wrapped up an all-day documentation spree for Instant API, a JavaScript framework for easily building web APIs that implements type safety at the HTTP interface. It uses a function-as-a-service approach combined with a slightly modified JSDoc spec to automatically enforce parameter and schema validation before HTTP requests make it through to your code. You just write comments above your endpoint functions and voila, enforced type safety contracts between your API endpoints and your developers. OpenAPI specifications are generated automatically as a byproduct of simply…

Talanoa▲346Hi 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…
