What it does
Wasp is an open source configuration language (DSL) for developing, building and deploying full-stack web apps with less boilerplate. It integrates with React, Node.js and Prisma. Wasp is in Alpha right now. Check it out on https://wasp-lang.dev/
React, Node.js, and Prisma - wired together with auth, jobs, and deployment built in. Ship in a day and own every line. Designed for humans, works beautifully with AI. A uniquely powerful config layer serves as a backbone that connects all parts of the stack - frontend, backend, database, and deployment . Like Rails and Laravel , focus on your app, not your framework. Auth, jobs, email, deploy and much more built in. Open source, no lock-in. No third-party provider or cloud platform dependency. Host anywhere . Instead of wiring everything yourself, Wasp gives you a cohesive set of full-stack features so you can focus on what makes your app unique. Define your app via a specialized…from wasp.sh

Hey HN! Wasp (https://wasp-lang.dev/) is a simple config language (DSL) and framework for building full-stack web apps. You describe the high-level features you want (auth, CRUD, async jobs, …) using the Wasp DSL, and write the rest of your logic in React, Node.js, and Prisma. We’re focused on simplifying developer experience and ensuring best practices. Everything is open source. Why another full-stack framework? And why a config language/DSL? We were still experiencing a lot of boilerplate (repetitive tasks) using other frameworks—things like duplicating data models…

Talanoa▲343Hi 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…

It's been a long slow hog and I almost gave up a few times (more than a few) but when covid hit this year it gave me some time to really focus on my product. There were stupid user journey things that I knew needed fixed. There were some features I knew needed added. And I knew the pricing was wrong. I spent some hardcore time working on these things back in March / April and since then my MRR has continued to grow. My product is SongBox (https://songbox.rocks) - it's an alternative to things like bandcamp and soundcloud for creators who need to share audio files privately.…
