Solidis – Tiny TS Redis client, no deps, for serverless
Hey everyone! Over the past two years I threw myself back into full-time engineering with a simple goal: write code that gives back to the community. After a lot of late-night FOMO (“AI will do it all for us, right?”) and some painful production incidents, I finally turned my weekend project into an open-source library. [ What is Solidis? ] - Super-light (< 30 KB) RESP2/RESP3 client with zero runtime deps and first-class ESM/CJS support. - Fully tree-shakable – import only the commands you need. - Written with SOLID principles & full TypeScript typings for every command. - Designed…
Solidis – Tiny TS Redis client, no deps, for serverless launched on May 16, 2025 with 71 votes, #577 of 7,905 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.
In plain words
Solidis is a lightweight TypeScript Redis client under 30 KB with no runtime dependencies, supporting both RESP2 and RESP3 protocols. It offers full ESM and CommonJS support with tree-shakable imports so developers only include the commands they need. Built with complete TypeScript typings and SOLID principles, it targets serverless environments where bundle size and memory footprint matter, addressing pain points in existing Redis clients around cold-start performance and unnecessary bundling.

Typebase – A single-folder back end you write in TypeScriptAug 2026 · typebase.io · ▲119Hey HN! I built Typebase, a library that gives you Convex's DX with Supabase's openness. After trying Supabase I liked how fast it is to spin up a DB and auth, but really didn't like using RLS and SQL for authorization. With Convex I loved how your server "lives" in your code, but disliked the DB model and the realtime-first defaults. With Typebase you just write TS files inside a typebase/ folder in your existing repo. You can define your DB tables inside a schema.ts file and export server functions that your frontend calls like local functions, fully typed. Auth is built in. Then one…

Deco.cx – realtime TypeScript web editor2024 · deco.cx · ▲98Hi, HN. Gui, Lucis, and the deco.cx team here — we're a bunch of Brazilians building an open-source, all-in-one web editor for the modern TypeScript dev. Check out our GitHub at https://github.com/deco-cx/deco and discover more at our site https://deco.cx/. We built frontend tools at a hyper-growth e-commerce platform for 9 years. Deco.cx is the thing that we wish existed when we were managing hundreds of enterprise-grade React-based websites. The gist is: JSX, HTMX, TypeScript, Tailwind and Deno. All visually editable in a beautiful, collaborative,…
DBOS TypeScript – Lightweight Durable Execution Built on Postgres2025 · github.com · ▲77Hi HN - Peter from DBOS here with my co-founder Qian (qianl_cs) Today we want to share our TypeScript library for lightweight durable execution. We’ve been working on it since last year and recently released v2.0 with a ton of new features and major API overhaul. https://github.com/dbos-inc/dbos-transact-ts Durable execution means persisting the execution state of your program while it runs, so if it is ever interrupted or crashes, it automatically resumes from where it left off. Durable execution is useful for a lot of things: - Orchestrating long-running or…

Crust – A CLI framework for TypeScript and BunMar 2026 · github.com · ▲95We've been building Crust (https://crustjs.com/), a TypeScript-first, Bun-native CLI framework with zero dependencies. It's been powering our core product internally for a while, and we're now open-sourcing it. The problem we kept running into: existing CLI frameworks in the JS ecosystem are either minimal arg parsers where you wire everything yourself, or heavyweight frameworks with large dependency trees and Node-era assumptions. We wanted something in between. What Crust does differently: - Full type inference from definitions — args and flags are inferred automatically. No…

Tapflow 2.0▲1,125We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
