In plain words

Onion Packer is an open source tool for organizing textures and images that works alongside design software. It lets users quickly locate and preview textures with a built-in 3D viewer to see how they'll render in scenes. The application runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS using the Electron framework, making it accessible across platforms for designers and 3D artists who need fast texture management.

    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.
