Pagy 1.0

Hi, today I launched Pagy, a website builder that works like Notion. It’s currently limited to one-page websites but I’m planning to add support for multiple pages soon. I’ve been working on this for over a year and half on the side, and recently quit my job to go full-time on it. The front-end is built on React and Next.js, running on Vercel, and I’m using Slate.js for the editor. The back-end is a Ruby on Rails API, running on Render. Would love to hear your thoughts and happy to answer any questions.

Pagy 1.0 launched on May 23, 2023 with 375 votes, #62 of 4,910 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.

In plain words

Pagy is a website builder that combines Notion-like editing with Carrd-style simplicity to create websites quickly without coding. Users can build landing pages, portfolios, personal profiles, company websites, and coming soon pages. The tool emphasizes design quality and performance, allowing creation of various website types in minutes through its no-code interface.

    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…
