What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hello HN community! We’re excited to announce that today, we are coming out of Beta with the launch of neverinstall 2.0. Over the past year we’ve been testing and developing the platform, adding new features and functionalities and listening to what you said. What is neverinstall? neverinstall is a cloud platform that allows you to run any application from the browser without installing it on your device. It is an alternative to traditional desktop application usage and enables people to stream applications over the web. Here’s what’s new at neverinstall: No time restrictions We’ve updated our platform and removed time restrictions on usage. We now offer subscription plans with a flat monthly fee based on the desired resource requirement of the user. Subscriptions We’re delighted to announce that we’ve now launched our subscription plans. Users can subscribe to a Standard or a Premium plan to access higher compute, memory and faster build times. However, the free tier remains unchanged with unlimited usage and unrestricted access to all apps. A brand new UI We’ve optimised the platform and changed the UI for improved access, better visibility of the workspaces and higher performance. Data Saver Mode The platform now offers a data saver mode to allow users with lower internet speeds or limited usage quotas to reduce their data consumption by up to 50%. Mobile Portrait Mode We now support both landscape as well as portrait mode for mobile usage of neverinstall, adding more flexibility to the platform. Support for new apps We’ve added more apps on our platform, including new design tools such as Figma, as well as leading communication applications including Slack and Telegram with more to follow. New servers in Europe Earlier this year, our new servers in the United Kingdom went live. These would enable European users to get improved performance and smoother access to the platform. So far we’ve been able to go from roughly 100 registered users to more than 3000 daily active users today, with a total registered user base of 200,000 in less than a year. At neverinstall, we are developing a next-generation cloud platform to bring any GUI (Graphical User Interface) application regardless of the operating system, device, and system requirements to the browser. Our goal is to bring a fundamental shift in the way we use applications eliminating the limitations of hardware and making them truly accessible from anywhere.

Hi HN! I made many small web games in the past with Unity or Phaser. But this time I wanted to make something completely on my own. So I coded a basic game framework in plain JavaScript, and used it to make Almost Pong. This was a really fun project that taught me a lot about JavaScript, and I plan to make more minimalist games with this framework. Interesting fact: Almost Pong doesn't load any assets, all sprites and sounds are generated with code. Happy to answer questions, and please let me know if you have any feedback on the game. Thanks!
