MobDrop

Hey HN, After watching countless mobile side projects get buried after a single social media post, I built MobDrop - a platform where mobile devs can actually get discovered. The problem: Twitter/Instagram posts disappear, GitHub repos don't showcase UI/UX well, and general platforms like Dribbble miss the technical side of mobile development. Mobile developers need a dedicated space to build their reputation and get found. MobDrop is like Dribbble meets Product Hunt, but 100% focused on mobile development - apps, side projects, UI concepts, and prototypes. Finally, a place where…

What it does

MobDrop is a modern platform for mobile developers to showcase their apps, demos, educational content, build portfolios, and get discovered by potential collaborators, employers, and the dev community.

A showcase platform built specifically for mobile developers. Whether you’re working with Flutter, React Native, or native iOS/Android, MobDrop is your space to share projects, get feedback, and discover what others in the mobile dev community are building. Your MobDrop profile and each project you post is public, SEO-friendly, and designed to help you get discovered — not just by other devs, but also by recruiters, potential collaborators, and even future co-founders. Your MobDrop profile acts as a living portfolio that you can link to on LinkedIn, your resume, social media, or anywhere else you want to showcase your work. Showcase your work without revealing personal information. Focus on…from mobdrop.club

    My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source2018 · ▲229

    Hi guys, I've created an open source web builder framework (https://grapesjs.com) years ago, which I'm still maintaining, and now I'm excited to publish a side project based on it, Grapedrop (https://grapedrop.com). It's a simple web page builder which allows you to design and publish your web pages very quickly. The project is still in beta with a lot of stuff to improve but I'd really like to share it and hear what people think about it and maybe also get some constructive feedback.

    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…

  • Hey HN! Introducing Trickle Magic Canvas: the world’s first Agentic Canvas, where you can visually co-create apps and websites with AI, from idea to production. Why is a canvas better? Most AI tools today rely on linear chats or text prompts. We believe that limits creativity and clarity. Canvas changes the game. 1. Every version & page at a glance. Each page and sub-page lives on a timeline. You can quickly browse, edit, and preview progress like a living, visual document — no more digging through chat logs or scattered states. 2. The canvas is the context. Unlike linear chats, you can…

  • Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore. Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older. The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I…

  • Made this website as an exercise in vibe-coding and GCP. It was posted about a few times around the internet, on sites like Morning Brew (https://www.morningbrew.com/issues/business-buzzkill), MetaFilter (https://www.metafilter.com/209703/Draw-A-Fish), boingboing.net, etc. I think it's cute! I built a basic CNN trained against penises and swastikas, and then anything that doesn't hit the 63% confidence score gets sent to a mod queue, a vibe-coded fish-tinder…

  • Hi HN - I made a site that takes a UK postcode, grabs the local MP's information and generates an AI mockup of what their ID might look like. It's a small, silly protest at the stupidity of the Online Safety Act that just came into force. edit - My open AI credits got hugged to death, please use a known postcode (like one from Kier Starmer's constituency, WC2B6NH) in the meantime.
