In plain words

Photosaic is a tool for creating mosaic images from a small collection of photos. Users provide their library of photos, and the software arranges them to form a larger composite image. It's designed for people interested in creating artistic photo mosaics without requiring an extensive image collection. The project is available on GitHub for those looking to build or customize the tool themselves.

    Hi HN! I wanted to make some photomosaics for an anniversary gift, but I ended up building this tool and turning it into a website that anyone can use. For those who don’t know, a photomosaic is an image made up of many smaller tile images, arranged in a way that forms a larger, recognisable picture. The best part? Everything runs directly in your browser. No files are uploaded, and there’s no sign-up required.

    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…
