Orbit Deploy
Zero-downtime Magento deploys, without Adobe Cloud
What it does
Orbit gives Magento zero-downtime deployments without the Adobe Commerce Cloud contract: atomic symlink releases, a traffic-holding cutover, a pre-deploy DB-migration block-window forecast, and automatic health-checked rollback. One-command Rust agent, CI/CD-ready, self-hostable.
Orbit delivers zero-downtime Magento deployments — atomic symlink releases, a traffic-holding cutover, Magento-aware smart build-skip (~75s typical deploys), and automatic health-checked rollback — without the Adobe Commerce Cloud contract. A Rust agent you install in one command: self-hostable, CI/CD-ready. A modern alternative to PHP Deployer and Capistrano for Magento 2 and Adobe Commerce.
Orbit gives you zero-downtime Magento deployments without the $100k Adobe Commerce Cloud contract. Atomic symlink swaps, smart skip detection, cutover hold, and auto-rollback — built in Rust. Zero-downtime Magento deployment means shipping new code to a live Magento 2 or Adobe Commerce store without ever showing a 503 maintenance page. Instead of building in place, each release is prepared in its own directory and made live with an instantaneous atomic symlink swap — so customers keep shopping straight through the deploy. Orbit does this with a single Rust agent you install in one command. It prepares the release, holds the 1–3 second cutover instant with an nginx 503 + Retry-After contract…from byte8.io

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
