Kōra for Android

Hi HN, I built Kora - a mobile app where you can have conversations with historical philosophers like Socrates and Marcus Aurelius. The idea is to make philosophy more interactive and accessible. Instead of only reading quotes, you can ask questions and explore ideas in dialogue. Current features include: • Text and lifelike voice chats with philosophers • Daily wisdom notifications + discussion with Marcus Aurelius • Essay critique (get feedback on your writing from different philosophers) Stack • Frontend: Bravo Studio (no-code mobile builder) • Backend: Xano (APIs, user data) • AI: OpenAI…

Kōra for Android launched on October 21, 2025 with 8 votes, #1,955 of 8,178 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

  • I went down the rabbit hole on a side project and ended up building this: Strange Attractors(https://blog.shashanktomar.com/posts/strange-attractors). It’s built with three.js. Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
