In plain words

Playbooks for your Terminal is a developer tool that replaces traditional shell history with a structured playbook system. It helps developers organize, manage, and reuse command sequences and workflows within their terminal environment. The tool is designed for developers who want better command organization than standard shell history provides, offering a way to save and retrieve frequently used command patterns and terminal workflows efficiently.

  • A terminal spreadsheet editor with Vim keybindingsApr 2026 · github.com · ▲126

    While speccing out this spreadsheet tool, I realized that I never had to think about the keybindings. It all just came naturally from Vim. Normal/insert/visual modes, hjkl navigation, dd/yy/p, :w, :q. The usual muscle memory works. It supports CSV/TSV import and export, and a native .cell format that preserves formulas. The formula engine handles SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, MIN, MAX, and IF with range references. The codebase is a Cargo workspace: a pure cell-sheet-core library (no TUI dependency) and a cell-sheet-tui crate on top of ratatui. Early days, but it's usable. To…

    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.

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…
