MicroFocus

What it does

Got tired of productivity apps with 47 features you never use? MicroFocus goes the opposite direction - we REMOVE features instead of adding them. Just: Open app → Press start → Focus 25min. No accounts, no setup, no bloat.

  I Built Tinyfocus – A Minimal Tool to Help Solo Founders FocusNov 2025 · tinyfoc.us · ▲20

  Hi HN, I just launched Tinyfocus, a small productivity tool designed specifically for solo founders and builders. The goal is simple: help you focus on what matters and get more done in less time. Here’s what Tinyfocus does: Lets you track your top tasks and prioritize efficiently. Provides micro dashboards to keep your daily focus in check. Lightweight, no distractions, no fluff. I built it entirely by myself, iterating in public, and I wanted to share it with the community to get feedback. It’s been crazy seeing how a simple tool can make such a difference in daily focus, especially when…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi 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…

  I spent 6 years building a ridiculous wooden pixel display▲1,145

  I built the world's most impractical 1000-pixel display and anyone in the world can draw on it. It draws a single pixel at a time and takes 30-60 minutes to complete a single image. Anyone can participate in the project by voting for the next image to be drawn, and submitting images. https://kilopx.com/

  I was curious about spherical helix, ended up making this visualization▲865

  I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it. I ended up learning about parametric equations again, and make this visualization to document what I learned: https://visualrambling.space/moving-objects-in-3d/ feel free to visit and let me know what you think!

  The current sky at your approximate location, as a CSS gradient▲788

  For HTML Day 2025 [1], I made a web service that displays the current sky at your approximate location as a CSS gradient. Colours are simulated on-demand using atmospheric absorption and scattering coefficients. Updates every minute, without the use of client-side JavaScript. Source code and additional information is available on GitHub: https://github.com/dnlzro/horizon [1] https://html.energy/html-day/2025/index.html
