    An open source framework for voice assistants2024 · github.com · ▲346

    I've been obsessed for the past ~year with the possibilities of talking to LLMs. I built a bunch of one-off prototypes, shared code on X, started a Meetup group in SF, and co-hosted a big hackathon. It turns out that there are a few low-level problems that everybody building conversational/real-time AI needs to solve on the way to building/shipping something that works well: low-latency media transport, echo cancellation, voice activity detection, phrase endpointing, pipelining data between models/services, handling voice interruptions, swapping out different…

    Druids – Build your own software factoryApr 2026 · github.com · ▲64

    Hi HN! Druids (https://github.com/fulcrumresearch/druids) is an open-source library for structuring and running multi-agent coding workflows. Druids makes it easy to do this by abstracting away all the VM infrastructure, agent provisioning, and communication. You can watch our demo video here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVJqW-tvSy4) to see what it looks like. At a high level: - Users can write Python programs that define what roles the agents take on and how they interact with each other. - A program is made of events - clear state transitions that the…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
