  • Pfuzz, a web fuzzer following the Unix philosophy2024 · github.com · ▲93

    I recently dipped my toes into bug bounty hunting and finding security flaws in web applications. As a friend of UNIX shells I was building a repertoire of command line tools to make and analyze HTTP requests. Fortunately there are already many suitable tools like curl, jq, different fuzzers and some really nice tools for specific tasks by Tom Hudson [1]. However, I disliked that the existing fuzzers were monoliths where I had no easy way of creating custom behavior or analyses. They commonly do a multitude of things: Create multiple requests using one or more wordlist, sending the request,…

  • Generate styled web pages with just Python2023 · pyvibe.com · ▲229

    There are a lot of Python to web app frameworks going around these days but I wanted something that was a little more lightweight that just generates HTML pages and can be embedded in Flask or other Python web servers incrementally. PyVibe uses Python components to construct a page with styling that you can use in Flask, in a static site, or even in Pyodide.

  • A modular Python TUI framework with a fast and pretty markup language2022 · github.com · ▲114

    PyTermGUI is a highly modular framework offering most of the features one would expect from a GUI library, such as a mature and open Widget API, animations, mouse support and other goodies, right inside the terminal! The markup language is another great feature of the library, and is used by practically all elements of it. It is based on Rich's implementation, but uses a more concise and easier to humanly parse syntax, while being over 10 times faster at parsing due to a long list of optimizations. There is a full Window Manager API included as well, allowing the user to move, resize and…

  • Talanoa▲340

    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…
