Show HN: Start GPT threads in ChatGPT (& other sites) https://bit.ly/41Cm9KO

Show HN: Start GPT threads in ChatGPT (& other sites) I noticed current LLM chat apps don't support threads for follow questions, but instead they're one long conversation. Often when I'm digging into a topic and GPT responds with a book, I want to ask follow-ups in "side chats" that I'd prefer to be inline and in context rather than jumping to bottom of the page, so I created GPT threads. It's a chrome extension where you can highlight some text and start a chat focusing on that text and incorporating surrounding context. You can have multiple threads on a page, and the extension has configurability like surrounding context size, response lengths, chat box positioning. I've found it useful for other sites too to quickly ask questions about news articles, docs, or HN threads!

Show HN: a Rust library for creating hierarchical state machines https://bit.ly/3Xn5oRm

Show HN: a Rust library for creating hierarchical state machines I've come to prefer modeling state machines with nested states, but implementing them by hand requires a large amount of error-prone boilerplate that obscures the important logic of the state machine. I found that the existing offerings in the Rust ecosystem - while inspiring - lacked a number of features that I was looking for, so I spent the last few months building moku.

Show HN: Hexle: A powerful way to search for papers and connect your ideas https://bit.ly/4ijEDFy

Show HN: Hexle: A powerful way to search for papers and connect your ideas Hi all, I find literature searches to be slow and despite all the tools nowadays, it is difficult to map out vast areas of research and then connect my ideas to what I’m trying to do (e.g. writing a review, learning something new, planning a new project, assignments, etc). Some of my peers and teachers also found this to be a problem so I built this MVP app to help people not only leverage AI search capabilities but also go on to connect their ideas, map out research projects, cite various results and organise their “stream of consciousness” as they work. I’d love to get some feedback on it - please feel free to post it either in this thread or email me at hexleteam@gmail.com. Many thanks from Sydney, Australia :) https://bit.ly/4iivOvx February 27, 2025 at 11:46PM

Show HN: SuperMassive – Fast durable, in-memory, distributed key-value database https://bit.ly/4kiiyZx

Show HN: SuperMassive – Fast durable, in-memory, distributed key-value database Hey hn! I hope you're all doing well. I’d like to share a new open-source database I’ve designed and written called SuperMassive. SuperMassive is a scalable, distributed, in-memory key-value database designed from the ground up to allow for high concurrency, fast writes, fault tolerance, and durability while remaining simple to use and efficiently scalable. The idea for SuperMassive comes from its name.. I wanted to build a key-value database that can scale infinitely, remain durable, be self-healing, consistent, and blazing fast. I also wanted to simplify sharding and replication compared to existing distributed KV stores and their protocols. SuperMassive is built to be simple yet powerful. It consists of just one multiplatform supported binary that can run in multiple modes(cluster, primary node, or replica). Nodes function as shards of your data. The design emphasizes minimal configuration, high performance, and automatic failover. While SuperMassive is still in its early stages (v1.0.2b), I’d love to hear your thoughts on the design, its architecture, and any feedback you may have :D Features~~ ~ Highly scalable Scale horizontally with ease. Simply add more nodes to the cluster. ~ Distributed Data is distributed across multiple nodes in a sharded fashion. ~ Robust Health Checking System Health checks are performed on all nodes, if any node is marked unhealthy we will try to recover it. ~ Smart Data Distribution uses a sequence-based round-robin approach for distributing writes across primary nodes. This ensures that all primary nodes get an equal share of writes. ~ Automatic Fail-over Automatic fail-over of primary nodes on write failure. If a primary node is unavailable for a write, we go to the next available primary node. ~ Parallel Read Operations Read operations are performed in parallel. ~ Consistency Management Timestamp-based version control to handle conflicts. The most recent value is always returned, the rest are deleted. ~ Fault-tolerant Replication and fail-over are supported. If a node goes down, the cluster will continue to function. ~ Self-healing Automatic data recovery. A node can recover from a journal. A node replica can recover from a primary node via a check point like algorithm. ~ Cluster Authentication with basic like auth. ~ Simple Protocol Simple protocol PUT, GET, DEL, INCR, DECR, REGX, STAT, RCNF, PING. ~ Async Node Journal Operations are written to a journal asynchronously. This allows for fast writes and recovery. ~ Multi-platform Linux, Windows, MacOS https://bit.ly/41CnAJq https://bit.ly/41z0enW - Alex https://bit.ly/41z0enW February 27, 2025 at 09:31AM

Show HN: I created a language called AntiLang – breaking all the conventions https://bit.ly/4hRjkLK

Show HN: I created a language called AntiLang – breaking all the conventions AntiLang is an interpreted programming language written in Go. The basic idea of this is to keep all the logical parts of a language same, but reverse the structure of it. The idea for this project came when I was having a long midnight conversation with my friend and thought of writing such a weird language. The initial draft was far worse than the current implementation; we thought of reversing the brackets and the language would be read from bottom to top. I'm happy that I dropped that idea Technical details: As the interpreter is written in Golang, I compiled it to WASM, and the whole interpreter is running in the browser. For the editor, I'm using Monaco, the same library that powers the text editor in VSCode. I learnt how to build it while reading "Write an Interpreter in Go" by Thorsten Ball. The project is opensourced - https://bit.ly/41xK6Dc - do give it a star if you like the project. https://bit.ly/3D9kwLm February 23, 2025 at 08:00PM

Show HN: URnetwork – Decentralized VPN Replacement https://bit.ly/3QwwIbQ

Show HN: URnetwork – Decentralized VPN Replacement I spent the last 1.5 years working out how to scale a decentralized network safely and efficiently to millions of users. URnetwork is a market for network capacity, where each connection races to find the best provider on the network. This means users have many IP addresses that continually cycle, and users can directly connect to each other, which is great for privacy when some minimum conditions are met. Because the world already has a bunch of hardware and network capacity that can be used, the challenges were to design a protocol to make it safe to use and participate, fast and reliable, and to set up the right encryption bar for safe peer to peer data. You can try the apps on iOS and Android and see if they work better than your current VPN. The source is here https://bit.ly/3QvX3qP About me, I was an early engineer at Palantir, former YC founder, and spent the last decade building global infrastructure. I'm interested in truly free, transparent, private, available, and secure networks that reward people to contribute what they have.

Show HN: Subtrace – Wireshark for Docker Containers https://bit.ly/4124xGF

Show HN: Subtrace – Wireshark for Docker Containers Hey HN, we built Subtrace ( https://bit.ly/431BXI9 ) to let you see all incoming and outgoing requests in your backend server—like Wireshark, but for Docker containers. It comes with a Chrome DevTools-like interface. Check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsGa6ZwVxdA , and see our docs for examples: https://bit.ly/4hGMqx3 . Subtrace lets you see every request with full payload, headers, status code, and latency details. Tools like Sentry and OpenTelemetry often leave out these crucial details, making prod debugging slow and annoying. Most of the time, all I want to see are the headers and JSON payload of real backend requests, but it's impossible to do that in today's tools without excessive logging, which just makes everything slower and more annoying. Subtrace shows you every backend request flowing through your system. You can use simple filters to search for the requests you care about and inspect their details. Internally, Subtrace intercepts all network-related Linux syscalls using Seccomp BPF so that it can act as a proxy for all incoming and outgoing TCP connections. It then parses HTTP requests out of the proxied TCP stream and sends them to the browser over WebSocket. The Chrome DevTools Network tab is already ubiquitous for viewing HTTP requests in the frontend, so we repurposed it to work in the browser like any other app (we were surprised that it's just a bunch of TypeScript). Setup is just one command for any Linux program written in any language. You can use Subtrace by adding a `subtrace run` prefix to your backend server startup command. No signup required.

Show HN: TimeRetain – A browser-based personal time tracker, no sign-up needed Hi HN, I built TimeRetain: a time tracker for individuals that runs 100% in your browser. No sign up, no personal data stored, and free while I’m working on the beta. Click the white demo banner to check it out quickly :) I’m using it to track my hours at work (e.g., overtime, and what I’ve done so I come prepared for stand up). In 2023 I launched it here [1], but with a back-end. After I became interested in local-first, I realized JS could handle everything Postgres did - so I ported it. Time data now never leaves your browser and the app will ping you to run an export from time to time. I also followed up on some of the feedback in the previous thread (it now has a pause button, a dedicated data export page, no longer relies on a working back-end, and I fixed the spacing in the name). It’s not a true local first app just yet (e.g., it's not a PWA, and backing up using the File System API is on my list), but I plan on making it one should it gain some traction. One of the other things I might add is encrypted at rest storage and sync of events, for which the foundation is done (it’s event-based and events are ordered using a HLC timestamp in IndexedDB). I wonder, though: is multi-device sync even necessary? I would much rather prefer not to store any personal data at all, even if it’s encrypted. Do you need sync? And if so, what would be your ideal solution? Would love to hear your thoughts in general. Thank you! [1] https://bit.ly/3CYaIR1 https://bit.ly/3J4Asiy February 17, 2025 at 11:57AM

Unlike GIPHY/Tenor, our goal was to create a cost-efficient infrastructure that allows platforms to integrate GIFs seamlessly while generating revenue for content creators and platforms - and keeping the API free forever, unlike GIPHY. The process is straightforward: * Platforms integrate our API and enable our Revenue API (optional) * Ads are placed between content, ensuring high CTRs while maintaining a UX-friendly experience * This unlocks new exclusive ad inventory for the market, allowing apps to generate more revenue than traditional ad placements Currently, our infrastructure handles 4 billion requests per month (content API requests + revenue API requests to and from ad networks) while keeping server costs under $1500. We've already integrated with several platforms, including Ridmik, Fleksy, iMe Messenger, and others. Additionally, we’re live on Slack, Canva, Figma, Integrately, and RapidAPI, with bigger names coming soon. I'd be happy to provide a lifetime free API key to anyone interested in integrating our features, with or without the revenue API. * API Docs: https://bit.ly/42Ygm3i * Demo Video: https://youtu.be/HOwNz_kXBSc P.S.

Show HN: I listed all component libraries for any frameworks https://bit.ly/4kdjxKO

Show HN: I listed all component libraries for any frameworks I quit my dev job 2 years ago to work on projects I actually care about. I built a CRM for philanthropy as a nonprofit, and on the side, I tinker with fun projects to learn new languages and sharpen my skills. Recently, I was looking for new component libraries to use, but I realized… there’s no single platform showcasing ALL component libraries across frameworks—especially independent, bootstrapped ones. No wonder so many projects default to MUI, DaisyUI, and other mainstream options. So, I decided to fix that. I collected 75+ libraries for React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Rails, Nuxt, and more, then categorized them by features like Dark Mode support, Accessibility, and Customizability. If you've built a component library, you can submit it for free. After launch, users requested more frameworks—so I automated the process with Make, letting me add new libraries in under an hour. Hope you'll find new libraries to try on for your next projects and let me know if you know more or want to see new frameworks added to it https://bit.ly/4k53IWy February 17, 2025 at 08:08AM

Show HN: Letting LLMs Run a Debugger https://bit.ly/4b2Bpnp

Show HN: Letting LLMs Run a Debugger Hey HN, I just built an experimental VSCode extension called LLM Debugger. It’s a proof-of-concept that lets a large language model take charge of debugging. Instead of only looking at the static code, the LLM also gets to see the live runtime state—actual variable values, function calls, branch decisions, and more. The idea is to give it enough context to help diagnose issues faster and even generate synthetic data from running programs. Here’s what it does: * Active Debugging: It integrates with Node.js debug sessions to gather runtime info (like variable states and stack traces). * Automated Breakpoints: It automatically sets and manages breakpoints based on both code analysis and LLM suggestions. * LLM Guidance: With live debugging context, the LLM can suggest actions like stepping through code or adjusting breakpoints in real time. I built this out of curiosity to see if combining static code with runtime data could help LLMs solve bugs more effectively. It’s rough around the edges and definitely not production-ready I’m not planning on maintaining it further. But I thought it was a fun experiment and wanted to share it with you all. Check out the attached video demo to see it in action. Would love to hear your thoughts and any feedback you might have! Cheers. https://bit.ly/3EAtLVg February 12, 2025 at 10:54AM

Show HN: Lightweight and robust CLI color converting utility https://bit.ly/4hF9Xi0

Show HN: Lightweight and robust CLI color converting utility I started this project because I found myself converting between Hex and RGB a lot. As I was frequently visiting various color picker websites, I began thinking more and more about how color conversions even work in the first place. What is a color space? Using any random color-picker online to go from RBG<->Hex works plenty fine, but, I think CLI tools are cool. I'm still pretty new to the Linux scene, and I really enjoy finding random command line programs to play with. I searched around a bit on Github and the AUR and couldn't find any CLI color conversion utilities, which I honestly found surprising (maybe I didn't look hard enough). I decided I'd really enjoy trying to make a simple command line program for RGB<->Hex, and the scope slowly expanded. I could see myself expanding it (maybe including more color formats, suggesting complementary colors) but for now, unless people discover ways to break it or offer any pull requests, I think I'll be moving on to other projects. It has no dependencies besides Python, and can be easily installed on mac/linux (see the README for more). I'm not certain how you'd set it up as a command line program on Windows, but you can just use Python in cmd to use the script anyway! https://bit.ly/4gKzwgr February 15, 2025 at 12:31AM

Show HN: Dockershrink – AI Assistant to reduce the size of Docker images https://bit.ly/4gEY8XR

Show HN: Dockershrink – AI Assistant to reduce the size of Docker images For the past few months, I've been hacking around a project I call Dockershrink. It automates a simple task: Take a Dockerfile and optimize its code with the goal of reducing the size of the final Docker image. People don't realize that we can apply some very basic techniques to reduce, for eg, a 2GB image down to just ~100MB: - Multistage builds with light-weight base image for final stage - Remove unused dependencies - Optimizations specific to the tech stack And I feel like I've already done this optimization for my personal projects and backend apps at my job(s) a couple of times. The project currently uses GPT-4o (open source so you can run it locally) and only works for Nodejs projects. There are a couple of reasons why I think dockershrink can be better than using just Vanilla LLM or Github Copilot/Cursor: - Image optimization can benefit from a lot of custom prompting, especially when you have insights about specific tech stacks. Describing techniques deeply in the prompt gave better results than simply asking the LLM to "optimize code for bloat reduction". - A RAG approach will be truly beneficial. I plan on giving dockershrink access to up-to-date documentations of Docker, Bash and all programming languages out there. Additionally, it can be given a few suitable chunks of code to enhance the context. - Analysing custom base images: most orgs have their customized base images. Adding context about these can further help Dockershrink make better decisions. Try it out - "brew install dockershrink" Happy to hear your thoughts! https://bit.ly/4b3seTQ February 13, 2025 at 11:45PM

Show HN: Auto rename downloads by AI and with your own naming rules https://bit.ly/42TpFkZ

Show HN: Auto rename downloads by AI and with your own naming rules Hii HN! We've built a Chrome extension called Cantrips.ai that auto generates meaningful filenames for pdf, txt, and docs downloads. It has tailored formats for major file types like papers, books, financial reports, etc. For example, a paper is always formatted as download date - title - first author's last name - area, so the filename would be 20250208 - Attention Is All You Need - Vaswani - LLM instead of 1706.03762 from arXiv. We are also developing a feature where users can add or adjust their file naming preferences. For example, if you like underscores and download meeting memos a lot, you can add meeting memos = interviewee's name_company_position_topic_date. The reason to build this extension is that my desktop is buried with meaningless and odd filenames, so I often can't find which is the one I want. I have to go to that website and download it again, sometimes the repetition number amounting over (10). More importantly, I desperately want my desktop/finder to look tidy. It feels great when everything is organized, but I don't want to handle the renaming in the mid of my research (and I become a bit lazy later :< Note that the extension hasn't supported downloads from some websites like Github due to technical complications. As a first-time dev, I just realized even a small tool can take much time... but we assume a similar preference feature can be applied to other productivity tools like folder organization or website bookmarks. Happy to get suggestions and learn if you really need such tools.

Show HN: Wordle Charts – insights about Wordle you don't need Hello HN! I'm a big fan of Wordle and I originally got this idea from seeing people gripe about Wordle suddenly being "harder" than usual. Wondering if this was true, I set out to snoop around the NYT's publicly available data, which gave me some pretty cool insights. I've put some of them on this simple site made with React and Claude. There's a grand total of 7 visualizations, with some fun little touches here and there. My favorite is probably "Clairvoyant Guesses," which shows some (to put it nicely) suspicious day-to-day guessing patterns. There's also a fun little easter egg when you type "cat" and then enter a word into the "Find Word:" box. Let me know if you have any suggestions, and any feedback at all :) Github Repo: https://bit.ly/3EzdeAT... https://bit.ly/4gEQKvs February 7, 2025 at 06:45PM

Show HN: WhisperCat – An Audio Recorder and Transcription Tool https://bit.ly/4aR9nv3

Show HN: WhisperCat – An Audio Recorder and Transcription Tool Hi HN, I wanted to share my first open-source project with you all: WhisperCat . WhisperCat is a small desktop application for recording audio and transcribing it using OpenAI's Whisper API. I built this because I needed something simple and reliable for my own transcription workflows, and now I'm hoping it might be useful to others as well. It's still pretty early stage, but it works well for basic audio recording and transcription tasks. What It Does: Lets you record audio with your preferred microphone. Transcribes audio files automatically via Whisper (OpenAI's transcription API). Supports global hotkeys for recording (e.g., CTRL + R or a custom sequence like triple ALT). Runs in the background (system tray) when minimized. Has a basic microphone testing feature to help you pick the right device. Shows desktop notifications for events (e.g., when recording starts or errors happen). Platforms: WhisperCat is available for Windows and Linux , and there’s also an experimental macOS build you can try if you’re feeling adventurous: Experimental macOS Build You can download the latest release here: https://bit.ly/4jQy2E6 Feedback is welcome! https://bit.ly/4aTxqJD February 10, 2025 at 08:41PM

Show HN: Stock Analysis Feels Broken – Here's My Take on Fixing It Stock analysis tools are powerful, but I’ve always run into three challenges: 1/ Too much data, hard to digest – Plenty of insights, but filtering what truly matters is time-consuming. 2/ No clear buy/sell decisions – You get the data, but figuring out what to do next is missing. 3/ No way to build a personal strategy – Most tools use preset metrics, but does not help to invest your own way. As a result, I often fall back on stock price and following others' opinions—not ideal. So, I built https://bit.ly/42MIPcr (v0) to simplify key data, let you set your own rules, and turn them into buy/sell/hold decisions.

Show HN: I built a tool to create polls on Bluesky Hey everyone. I’ve been missing polls on Bluesky for a while and got curious about how to make it work. So, I put together a little tool called blueskypolls.xyz as a workaround that lets you create polls for your posts. It’s not perfect, but it gets the job done! Here’s how it works: • You can create polls with multiple options • You can also create polls as a reply to a post • It even supports custom emojis if you want to make things a bit more fun • You can also setup a poll end date • You can see results of each of your polls with some beautiful graphs One thing to note: the tool requires your an app password to work, not your main account password. App passwords are specifically for connecting third-party tools and can be managed in your Bluesky account settings. It’s a safer way to use tools like this without sharing your main password. If you’ve been wishing for polls on Bluesky, this might be something you’d find useful. I’d love to hear your thoughts or if there’s something you think could make it better. https://bit.ly/3Cr3vMo February 6, 2025 at 07:52AM

Show HN: Former – open-source Cursor for SQL https://bit.ly/4hpB14K

Show HN: Former – open-source Cursor for SQL Hey everyone, Elliott and Matty here. We’ve built Former, an open source AI-first SQL Editor. The repo is available at https://bit.ly/4aSsBjN and our home page is https://bit.ly/432FN3Z . We built Former to provide an AI-first development environment for working with data. We’ve seen incredible applications of AI to the software engineering space with Cursor, Windsurf, and others, but we believe that focussing on a product just for data teams is needed for their unique workflows. Former is starting as a full SQL editor experience with an embedded AI that has all the context needed for accurate SQL generation. We currently support Cursor features like Cmd+K (inline AI edit) and Cmd+L (AI chat with apply). It’s true, Cursor is already useful for writing SQL, but our advantage is in providing context and functionality specific to the data domain, which we believe will enable us to eventually build something far more powerful for data teams than Cursor. In the long term we see room for an AI coworker that helps you complete all of your data analyst/engineer tasks, but “Cursor for SQL” seems like a good start. Security is obviously a major consideration for a product that tries to combine AI and data. After speaking to dozens of data analysts and engineers, we found there is a wide spectrum from people who aren't even allowed to use AI at work, to people who will happily send the contents of their entire database to OpenAI. We settled on a middle ground of sending SQL + DB schema to 3rd party AIs, but a privately hosted AI is easy to setup for someone who doesn't want to have anything leave their own infrastructure. You can access the source code (MIT Licence) and self-host at https://bit.ly/4aSsBjN We would love any raw feedback. We'd especially love to know what is required to have you start using this tool in your daily workflow. Let us know what you think!

I’ve been job hunting for the past four months, and it’s been painfully repetitive and time-consuming. Applying via LinkedIn often feels like throwing your resume into a sea of 1,000+ other applicants, even with daily alerts turned on.

Show HN: Open-source version of OpenAI's Deep Research https://bit.ly/4gkvL0U

Show HN: Open-source version of OpenAI's Deep Research Last night, OpenAI launched Deep Research, a tool for AI-powered deep web searches. In a few hours, I built an open-source alternative using Next.js, Firecrawl, and Vercel's AI SDK. Instead of using a fine-tuned version of o3, this method uses Firecrawl's extract + search with a reasoning model to deep research the web. The system is built using Vercel’s AI SDK for handling requests and streaming data, with an agent-based approach that manages search, extraction, and analysis. It uses Firecrawl to find and extract structured data, which is then processed through a progressive analysis system to refine and summarize results. The process follows an iterative cycle: Firecrawl’s /search API finds relevant URLs, /extract pulls structured data, and a planning function determines what to look for next. A research state tracker keeps track of findings, summaries, and progress while enforcing depth (maxDepth) and time limits to stay within Vercel’s function execution time constraint. The results stream into a live UI, showing search progress, sources, and key insights. The cycle continues until enough information is collected or limits are reached, producing a final structured summary. This was a pretty fast built and I wanna keep iterating on it. Would love to hear your thoughts. https://bit.ly/3Q2dtqx February 3, 2025 at 11:19PM

Show HN: Made a tiling manager Linux-XFCE to roughly copy Snap-Layout in Windows Title says all that needs to said about it, admittedly it is stupid to "copy" any Windows feature in Linux but here we are...it is not exactly made for use by extensive audience but just a rough work of it would love any suggestion/critique on it ... https://bit.ly/4gFXWI1 February 3, 2025 at 05:43AM

Show HN: I Built a Platform to Buy and Sell GitHub Repositories https://bit.ly/4jFLhr6

Show HN: I Built a Platform to Buy and Sell GitHub Repositories Hey HN, I built a platform that allows developers to buy and sell GitHub repositories using private forking. The idea is to help indie developers, open-source maintainers, and teams monetize their work while ensuring buyers get fully functional projects with minimal hassle. Many developers create great projects but lack the time or resources to maintain them. Instead of letting them fade away, why not sell them to someone who wants to continue the work? Here is how it works: - Sellers list theis GitHub repos in the platform - Buyers purchase repos - Buyers automatically added as collaborators and can fork the repo Check it out here: https://bit.ly/4jGN5A4 https://bit.ly/40KxNS6 February 3, 2025 at 01:37AM

Show HN: Modest – musical harmony library for Lua https://bit.ly/3PYMewS

Show HN: Modest – musical harmony library for Lua This is a project I've been building in my spare time over the past few months. It's a library that provides methods for working with musical harmony ‒ intervals, notes, chords. For example, it can parse almost any chord symbol (Fmaj7, CminMaj9, etc) and turn it into notes, or it can identify a chord from a given set of notes. I started this project with the idea of using formal grammar to parse chord symbols. I wanted to use it instead of a hand-written parser, which is the common approach among similar libraries. Lua caught my attention because of Lpeg, a Parsing Expression Grammar library that is both fast and easy to use. An additional motivation for using Lua was the lack of comparable libraries for it, even though the language is commonly used in audio programming. However, despite being a Lua library, the project itself is written in Fennel — a "lispy" language that transpiles to Lua. Fennel has features that make writing code for the Lua platform much more pleasant: a concise syntax, macros, and destructuring — a feature Lua sorely lacks! In the process, I definitely learned a lot about music theory, although my new knowledge is quite one-sided. By working on this library, I know a thing or two about types and structure of chords, but I learned almost nothing about their composition and transformation. Perhaps these will be the directions I explore next in the project. https://bit.ly/3CzYFw6 February 2, 2025 at 11:32AM

Show HN: Val Town Projects https://bit.ly/3QkyRHT

Show HN: Val Town Projects Hello! We at Val Town have spent the last couple months redesigning our product around a new core primitive: Val Town Projects. Why: Our prior core primitive, a "val", was too small. A val is just a single hosted JavaScript file. Users kept bumping up against rough edges managing lots of disparate vals. What: A Val Town Project is a group of vals, files, and folders, versioned collectively. They support branches, forks, and merges. How: We made the sacrilegious decision to not build on git. We instead built a simplified system that works directly in our postgres database. Our dream is that Val Town Projects will unlock a new kind of collaboration, and we hope you all make amazing things with it! https://bit.ly/3PZoUzd January 31, 2025 at 07:55PM
