WidgetForge — AI Chat Widget
A secure, drop-in AI chatbot widget for any website
What it does
Most AI chatbot templates trust the browser more than they should — exposed API keys, system prompts overridable via curl, CORS headers that only block browsers, not scripts. WidgetForge flips that: API key stays server-side, system prompt rebuilt on every request, CORS enforced with a real 403, two-tier rate limiting plus a daily cost ceiling. 5 AI providers, 4 themes, HTML + Next.js. One config file. Built for real client sites, not demos.
A drop-in AI chatbot widget for any website — powered by whichever AI provider you already use.Most chatbot templates leak your API key to the browser, trust whatever "system prompt" a visitor's request claims to send, or fold the moment someone hits the endpoint directly with curl instead of your widget's UI. This one doesn't.WHAT'S INCLUDED- Two full stacks: static HTML/JS version and a Next.js

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
