With a one-time payment of $9, you can manage your projects easily and access them from anywhere, even on mobile devices.
A macOS menubar app that names every dev server — dashboard.localhost on this Mac, dashboard.local on your Wi-Fi, or a public HTTPS link. $9 one-time.
A macOS menubar app that gives every dev server a named localhost address — reachable on your Wi-Fi or through a public HTTPS link, whatever port it landed on. Names come from your project folders — rename any of them in a click. Forgot one? Open localhost and they're all listed. This is the floor: it works with no switch thrown, and the other two rungs build on the same name. How far each dev server reaches — localhost on this Mac, your Wi-Fi, or a public link anyone can open. Bookmark it. Put it in your OAuth callback. Paste it in the README. It keeps working across restarts, port changes and whatever your agent decided to grab today — and when your framework auto-increments the port, the…from localdock.dev

- LDLocal development with .local domains and HTTPS2023 · localcan.com · ▲84
Hi HN! I'm Jarek, and I've built this tool that allows publishing .local domains on the local network using mDNS. It also has a reverse proxy that handles HTTPS termination and port forwarding. I'm working on adding more features, like an index page with all available domains or allowing proxy redirects, so you could redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback!

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

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.
