Matrices – Explore, visualize, and share large datasets
Hey HN, I'm excited to share a new side project I've been working on. The product is called Matrices. You can check it out here: https://matrices.com/. With Matrices, you can explore, visualize, and share large (100k rows) datasets–all without code. Filter data down to just what you want, visualize it with built-in charts, and share your results with one click. You can use it today (no login or waitlist or anything). Just copy and paste your data from a google sheet or CSV file. It's hard to describe the feeling of "gliding over data" you get with Matrices, so I'd rather…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hey HN, I'm excited to share a new side project I've been working on. The product is called Matrices. You can check it out here: https://matrices.com/. With Matrices, you can explore, visualize, and share large (100k rows) datasets–all without code. Filter data down to just what you want, visualize it with built-in charts, and share your results with one click. You can use it today (no login or waitlist or anything). Just copy and paste your data from a google sheet or CSV file. It's hard to describe the feeling of "gliding over data" you get with Matrices, so I'd rather _show_ you how it works instead. This 75s video will give you a sense of how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rrh9_I3Ux8E. Data is stored locally in your browser until you publish it, though small sample does go to the OpenAI APIs for AI-assisted features. I started building Matrices because I wanted a tool that made it easy to explore new datasets. When I'm first trying to dig into data, I'll have one question... that leads to another... that will invariably lead to five more questions. It's sort of a fractal process, and I couldn't find many good options that were fast, responsive, and visual. I figured this crowd would be interested in tech stack as well, it's using arquero [1] bindings over apache arrow for in-memory analytics, and visx [2] for visualizations. I'd like to add duckdb-wasm support at some point to open up a wider set of databases. Data is serialized as parquet to save a bit on bandwidth + storage. Give it a spin, and let me know what you think. This is my first 'serious frontend project' so I appreciate any and all feedback and bug reports. Feel free to comment here (I'll be around most of the day), or shoot me a note: [email protected] [1]: https://uwdata.github.io/arquero/ [2]: https://airbnb.io/visx/

- MCMatrix-CRDT – real-time collaborative apps using Matrix as backend2022 · github.com · ▲320
Hi HN! Matrix-CRDT connects the worlds of Yjs [1] (a proven, high performance CRDT) with that of Matrix.org [2]. It started as an experiment, asking myself; can we store "state updates of a datastore" in Matrix instead of chat messages? Now, I'm convinced it's actually a really powerful combination to develop real-time, collaborative software. I'm using it for a new project and so far didn't have to write a backend yet. Matrix takes care of a lot of stuff: Authentication, E2EE, federation, hosting, etc. - so I can focus on the client. I love the ideas of Local First [3] software. Personally,…

Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works. Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

Hey! I made Heynote entirely for my own use case. For many years, I always had an Emacs instance running with the scratch buffer open, even long after I had abandoned Emacs as my programming editor in favor of more recent IDE:s. The simplicity of having just one big scratch buffer appeals to me, but I still want to separate the different things I jot down somehow (without using tabs or similar). Previously, my solution was to insert a bunch of blank lines between the notes, but hitting C-A would still select the entire buffer. That's why I came up with the concept of "blocks", which turned…
