Viberunner – build personal desktop apps in seconds
I kept seeing people making macOS apps for their one-off use cases and automations. I thought surely the hassle of paying for an Apple dev account and fighting with code signing and notarization would be a deterrent for most people. Viberunner is a container environment that lets you build macOS apps with simple prompts. You can run the apps in a new tab, a new window, or even as a system menu bar app. You can create things like: - a clipboard manager - an image redactor - a note-taking tool that saves a daily note to a folder on your desktop - a desktop organizer that cleans up your…

VibeIcons2025 · vibe-icons.com · ▲33I wanted to build something small with Nano Banana and scratch an itch I hit in almost every project: sometimes my go-to icon sets (Heroicons & Phosphor) just don’t have the exact icon I need/want. VibeIcons generates style-consistent SVG icons from a text prompt. It’s not always perfect but it gets you surprisingly good results. Along the way I realized it’s already a halfway-decent logo sketcher too. Let me know what you think.
A cross platform desktop installer maker project2023 · github.com · ▲6Hello, I have been working on a desktop app as a side project for which I needed an installer kit. I looked at some existing ones for different platforms. Felt, it benefits to have a cross platform desktop installer builder which is flexible enough to code your UI and actions (non declarative style). I have also added Github actions (sourced from Tauri) to automatically generate installer files for all macos, win and linux. Here is an effort towards it. Please share your thoughts: https://github.com/krishnakumar4a4/desktop-installer-maker

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…

Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
