SnapAPI
Hi HN, I'm a solo developer based in Tbilisi, Georgia, and I've been building SnapAPI for the past few months. It's a REST API that does four things: screenshots, PDFs, video recording, and structured data extraction from web pages. *Why I built it:* I was working on a project that needed link previews. I tried self-hosting Playwright — it works, but managing browser contexts, memory leaks, cookie banners, and crash recovery is a surprising amount of operational work for what should be a simple task. The existing APIs (ScreenshotOne, Urlbox) are solid but expensive and fragmented — you need…

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.

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.
