Kalendis – Scheduling API (keep your UI, we handle timezones/DST)
Kalendis is an API-first scheduling backend. You keep your UI; we handle the gnarly parts (recurrence, time zones, DST, conflict-safe bookings). What it does: • MCP tool: generates typed clients and API route handlers (Next.js/Express/Fastify/Nest) so you can scaffold calls straight from your IDE/agent tooling. • Availability engine: recurring rules + one-off exceptions/blackouts, returned in a clean, queryable shape. • Bookings: conflict-safe endpoints for creating/updating/canceling slots. Why we built it: We kept rebuilding the same "hard parts" of…
In plain words
Kalendis is an API-first scheduling backend that handles timezone conversions, daylight saving time, recurrence rules, and conflict-safe bookings. Developers keep their own user interface while delegating the complex scheduling logic to Kalendis. It includes tools to generate typed clients and API route handlers for Next.js, Express, Fastify, and Nest, plus an availability engine that manages recurring rules and exceptions. It is designed for developers building scheduling features who want to avoid rebuilding common scheduling infrastructure.

In the maker’s words, at launch
Kalendis is an API-first scheduling backend. You keep your UI; we handle the gnarly parts (recurrence, time zones, DST, conflict-safe bookings). What it does: • MCP tool: generates typed clients and API route handlers (Next.js/Express/Fastify/Nest) so you can scaffold calls straight from your IDE/agent tooling. • Availability engine: recurring rules + one-off exceptions/blackouts, returned in a clean, queryable shape. • Bookings: conflict-safe endpoints for creating/updating/canceling slots. Why we built it: We kept rebuilding the same "hard parts" of scheduling: time zones/DST edge cases, recurring availability, conflict-aware booking, etc. We wanted a boring, reliable backend so we could ship product features without adopting a hosted scheduling UI. How it's helped: We stopped re-implementing DST/recurrence math and shipped booking flows faster. One small team (just 2 developers) built a robust booking platform for their business using Kalendis—they kept full control of their UX without spending lots of cycles on scheduling infrastructure. The MCP generator cut the glue code: drop in a typed client or route, call the API, move on. Some tech details: • REST API with ISO-8601 timestamps and IANA time zones • Recurring availability + one-off exceptions (designed to compose cleanly) • Focused scope: users, availability, exceptions, bookings (not a monolithic suite) The MCP server exposes tools like generate-frontend-client, generate-backend-client, generate-api-routes, and list-endpoints. Add to your MCP settings: { "mcpServers": { "kalendis": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@kalendis/mcp"] } } } How to try it: Create a free account → get an API key. (https://kalendis.dev). Then hit an endpoint: curl -H "x-api-key: $KALENDIS_API_KEY" \ "https://api.kalendis.dev/v1/availability/getAvailability?userId=<user-id>&start=2025-10-07T00:00:00Z&end=2025-10-14T00:00:00Z&includeExceptions=true" Happy to answer questions and post example snippets in the thread. Thanks for taking a look!

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
