Rhei

What it does

Rhei is a gallery of clock faces where time is encoded purely through shape and motion — no numerals, no hands, no labels. 30+ designs across four categories: 6-hour, 12-hour, 24-hour, and calendar. Each uses a different visual language — rings, arcs, grids, bars, falling shapes. All clocks run live in the browser. A time scrubber lets you drag through a full day to see how each design reads at any moment. Built with vanilla JS/Canvas. One lifetime price, no subscription.

  Talanoa▲346

  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…

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
