  Hi HN, I’ve been working on Vartiq, a plug-and-play Webhook as a Service platform. What it is: Sending outbound webhooks reliably is a pain many SaaS products face. You end up building: - Delivery logic with retries and exponential backoff - Dead-letter queues for failed deliveries - Observability pipelines for logs and debugging - Auto-scaling infra to handle spikes in events Vartiq aims to take all of that off your plate. Key features: Zero lost events – reliable delivery with auto retries Dead-letter handling out of the box Live observability – dashboards, delivery logs, and metrics…

  Talanoa▲343

  Hi 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…

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes▲1,181

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
