Thread4.eu – Platform to deploy a Python function to the web in seconds
Hi! I’ve always wanted a simple way to throw my Python projects online. Just to try things out, share them, or test a webhook with a real endpoint. But every time I hit the same wall: Buy a server, Set up HTTPS, Configure DNS, Get a domain. Write boilerplate to glue it together. It always felt like too much for something so small that I wanted to test. So Ive been hacking on Thread4 (currently in alpha): a tiny platform where you can write a Python function and go live instantly at yourname.thread4.eu. It’s not for production use, just quick testing, experimenting, or sharing your idea…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi! I’ve always wanted a simple way to throw my Python projects online. Just to try things out, share them, or test a webhook with a real endpoint. But every time I hit the same wall: Buy a server, Set up HTTPS, Configure DNS, Get a domain. Write boilerplate to glue it together. It always felt like too much for something so small that I wanted to test. So Ive been hacking on Thread4 (currently in alpha): a tiny platform where you can write a Python function and go live instantly at yourname.thread4.eu. It’s not for production use, just quick testing, experimenting, or sharing your idea without setting anything up. Everything runs in Docker, hosted in the EU Some example sites ive built using it: https://bookshelf.thread4.eu/ https://mealby.thread4.eu/ https://mock.thread4.eu/ Would love some feedback or any ideas!

Hi everyone! I just released the Practical Python Projects book! (https://practicalpython.yasoob.me) I am happy to announce the first version as a release candidate. I have poured a lot of love into writing this book and would love to hear what you guys think. (A limited 100% off and discount coupons at the end) This is not a pure beginner book. The book does assume some background Python knowledge. You need to know the basics like methods, functions, classes, and such. If I use something that is not typically covered in beginner Python books, I will explain it before I use it.…
- MWmy weekend project, a "framework" for IRC apps/bots2011 · ▲24
This is a little project I've been working on for a while in order to better learn Python. Although IRC may not exactly be the most exciting medium, I still find it to be fun and useful, this interest lead me to writing a bot. In doing this I realized that what would actually be more interesting would be if I had a framework. There may already be such a thing, certainly there are IRC libraries, but I don't know if they're well-suited to deploying bots. At any rate if for no other reason than the fact that I am relatively new to programming and eager to learn I decided to build a framework.…
- MFmy first ever coding project (7bks.com)2010 · ▲25
Hey HN. I've just launched my very first webappp and would love your feedback. http://www.7bks.com It's a book list sharing website - kind of like playlists for bookworms. The site is built on pyton/appengine - and I learned to code in under 4 weeks to build the site. There's more details on the background of the site here: http://www.7bks.com/blog/179001 I've also published the full Python code for the site here: https://gist.github.com/670034 Feedback is really important to me and I want to work hard to make the site better so any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.

- AIAn IRC channel to help people find jobs2014 · ▲23
I had an idea a couple days ago and I went with it. Basically, the idea was to create an IRC channel to help people find jobs; computer related jobs, in particular. There would be a bot to display job listings. So I started working on a first take on the bot. I decided to use Python because I love the language and I wanted to get more experience with a its libraries. TwitterBot (or JobFeeder on ##jobfeed) as I call it, uses Twisted (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Twisted) and Twitter (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/twitter)for now. Basically, it gets the…

Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore. Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older. The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I…

Made this website as an exercise in vibe-coding and GCP. It was posted about a few times around the internet, on sites like Morning Brew (https://www.morningbrew.com/issues/business-buzzkill), MetaFilter (https://www.metafilter.com/209703/Draw-A-Fish), boingboing.net, etc. I think it's cute! I built a basic CNN trained against penises and swastikas, and then anything that doesn't hit the 63% confidence score gets sent to a mod queue, a vibe-coded fish-tinder…
