Sklad – Secure, offline-first snippet manager (Rust, Tauri v2)
Hi HN, I’m Pavel. I built Sklad because, as a DevOps engineer, I was frustrated with how I handled operational data. I constantly need access to SSH passwords (where keys aren't an option), specific IP addresses, and complex CLI one-liners. I realized I was storing them in insecure text files or sticky notes because standard clipboard managers felt too bloated and password managers were too slow for my workflow. I wanted a "warehouse" for this data—something that lives quietly in the system tray, supports deep hierarchy, works completely offline, and looks industrial. The app is built with…
Sklad – Secure, offline-first snippet manager (Rust, Tauri v2) launched on February 2, 2026 with 22 votes, #730 of 16,627 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches.
In plain words
Sklad is an offline-first snippet manager designed for DevOps engineers and technical professionals who need quick access to sensitive operational data like SSH passwords, IP addresses, and CLI commands. Built with Rust and Tauri, it runs from the system tray with a hierarchical menu system that works entirely without internet. The tool encrypts stored data using AES-256-GCM encryption and Argon2 key derivation, prioritizing security and speed over the bloat of traditional password managers or clipboard tools.

Rot - Offline secrets management2023 · github.com · ▲116Finally open sourced an internal tool we've been using for managing secrets. It's similar to SOPS, but more opinionated, easier to configure/use correctly, and produces nicer git diffs. It also supports one-way encryption, so you don't have to know the private key to add secrets.

Talanoa▲346Hi 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…

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
