Mify – CLI that generates and maintains your backend infra code
Hello, for the past couple of months, we've been developing Mify and I wanted to share it with the people here. We've been writing backends for multiple different big and small companies and noticed that backend development progresses in way too similar cycles. At first people write a small set of services or in better case a single service to do what's needed. At some point the tech debt becomes too much of a hassle to handle as company grows, engineers are starting to scale the codebase, rewriting code, splitting monolith, introducing microservices and eventually after a bunch of…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hello, for the past couple of months, we've been developing Mify and I wanted to share it with the people here. We've been writing backends for multiple different big and small companies and noticed that backend development progresses in way too similar cycles. At first people write a small set of services or in better case a single service to do what's needed. At some point the tech debt becomes too much of a hassle to handle as company grows, engineers are starting to scale the codebase, rewriting code, splitting monolith, introducing microservices and eventually after a bunch of iterations like that, people write some sort of in-house internal developer platform to quickly spin up services. The amount of effort it takes to go through this is really unnecessary. Every team needs to get a bunch of libraries for storage, configuration, logging, metrics, etc and duct tape them all together until it works, then write boilerplate for all of that, and then there's also infrastructure code and configs to set up deployment. So, we think that it doesn't have to be that way and that's why we wrote Mify, which is an open-source tool that generated and maintains all boilerplate code for the necessary building blocks of a backend service and help with deployment. Even at this early stage Mify can save a lot of development time, so check it out, we would appreciate your feedback!

- IVI've built a CLI to create remote dev envs as a Go learning project2022 · github.com · ▲5
Hey HN, As most of you (I think?), I cannot learn something without having a project, on the side, to implement what I’ve just learned. Recode is the project that I've used to learn Go. It lets you create a development environment in your cloud provider account easily. You can think of it as a desktop version of Gitpod / Coder / GitHub Codespaces less polished and with less features but 100% free and open-source. At the time of writing, it only works with Visual Studio Code and AWS. In order to let you configure your development environments easily, I’ve chosen to use Docker with…
- NTNoodles – Turn any codebase into a diagram with Claude and Tree-sitterFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲6
I built a CLI tool that turns codebases and PRs into diagrams so you can quickly understand how things fit together. Originally made it because I couldn't follow my own AI-generated repos. Just shipped a big update: - Switched from D2 to Mermaid for rendering - Tree-sitter AST parsing + agentic flow instead of raw LLM calls. ~50x faster. - Works on any GitHub repo or PR, not just local - Dropped the web frontend, it's just a CLI now - Published as a pip package Still a ton to improve and I'm building fast. Feedback, issues, PRs all welcome.
- MPMicro – Platform APIs built for developers2023 · micro.dev · ▲7
Hey all, Just reposting after about a year since the last time I shared. Micro is a platform for API development. It combines a lot of the core primitives you'd expect from a cloud platform as a single logical server. The closest equivalent is Dapr.io. It bakes in the concept of environments, source to running builds and a framework for Go development. It's useful where you want to write backend services in Go and expose them through a single API (also included in Micro). We once wrote about "Netlify for the frontend, Micro for the backend"…
- ACAI Code Review CLIMar 2026 · github.com · ▲5
This week we released the Kodus CLI. It took a bit longer than we expected to ship. The reason was simple: there are already many ways to run reviews locally today. IDEs, extensions, terminal commands, agents inside the editor. So building “just another AI CLI” didn’t seem like a good idea. The question that guided the project was different: how can we bring the quality of PR reviews to the moment when the code is still being written? Today the CLI does two main things. The first is running local reviews using the same context we use in PRs. The goal was to avoid that shallow review that…
- CSCodeDrift – static analysis for AI-generated codeMar 2026 · npmjs.com · ▲5
Hi HN, I built *CodeDrift*, a CLI tool that detects bugs commonly introduced by AI coding assistants like Copilot, Cursor and ChatGPT. Over the last year I noticed that AI tools often generate code that compiles correctly, passes linting and looks reasonable in code review but still contains subtle issues. Some common examples I kept seeing: * async `forEach` loops that never await promises * missing authorization checks (IDOR) * hallucinated dependencies that don’t exist * stack traces leaking sensitive information * request data used without validation These bugs often slip past ESLint,…
