In plain words

Twisty Polyhedra is a web-based implementation of Rubik's cube variants rendered using the Canvas 2D API. It generates and displays different polyhedral puzzle shapes and sizes that users can interact with and manipulate. The project is designed for developers and puzzle enthusiasts interested in understanding how 3D twisty puzzles work through code, with accompanying documentation and a live demo available.

    I made a puzzle game with Three.js2023 · thomasfriday.com · ▲82

    A while ago I discovered three.js, a JavaScript library to manipulate 3D objects. It looked really interesting, but I had no real need for it... To change that I recently challenged myself to make one 3D web game per month with three.js. And I just release game #2, a puzzle game called Cuboid, and you can try it here: https://www.thomasfriday.com/cuboid/ Please let me know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks!

    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…
