Permit Elements- UIs to let your customers manage their own damn RBAC
Hi HN! Co-Founder of Permit.io here, I’ve built access-control to my products, thousands of times throughout my career - and at no point did I want to. We adopted OPA, created OPAL.ac (open-source), and Permit.io on top - so no developer would have to build permissions again. To truly solve this problem end-to-end we’re releasing Permit-Elements (https://permit.io/elements) - embeddable UIs providing the interfaces you need so your end-customers can control access-control (e.g. user-management, audit-logs, approval flows, permission requests, api-key management, …) Check out…
In plain words
Permit Elements provides embeddable user interfaces that allow customers to manage their own access control and permissions. The product includes features for user management, audit logs, approval flows, permission requests, and API key management. Built on top of Permit.io's access control infrastructure, which uses OPA and OPAL, it eliminates the need for developers to build permission systems from scratch. The solution emphasizes authorization auditing, real-time decision-making, and straightforward JavaScript integration for implementation.

This works suprisingly well. Just give it instructions like "make it winter" or "remove the cars" and the photo is altered. Here are some examples of transformations it can make: Golden gate bridge: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/brycedrennan/imaginAIry/ma...

I integrated this new InstructPix2Pix model into imaginAIry (python library) so it's easy to use for python developers.

The project is called QueryStorm. It uses Roslyn to offer C# (and VB.NET) support in Excel, as an alternative to VBA. I've posted about it before, but a lot has changed since then so figured I'd share an update. The current version includes a host of new features, namely a C# debugger, support for NuGet packages, and the ability to publish Excel extensions to an "AppStore" (which is essentially a NuGet repository). The AppStore can be used by anyone with the (free) runtime component. Another great addition is the community license, which is a free license for individuals and small companies…

Hey HN! Some more info: I’m an NHS doctor and the founder of Pi-A (https://www.pi-a.io) which developed Lungy (https://www.lungy.app). Lungy is an app (iOS only for now) that responds to breathing in real-time and was designed to make breathing exercises more engaging and beneficial to do. It hopefully has many aspects of interest to the HN community – real-time fluid, cloth and soft body sims running on the phone’s GPU. My background is as a junior surgical trainee and I started building Lungy in 2020 during the first COVID lockdown in London. During COVID, there were…
