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: Small back end server to render PNG from VueJS widgets In my company we need to send Discord or WhatsApp messages (eg. alert about something, etc), which cannot unfortunately embed HTML widgets, but I wanted to make it possible to show a "card-like" component with colors, graphs, etc I coded a small backend which lets you mount a VueJS widget (it would work with React too), pass it props from the POST/GET parameters, render it to PNG and send it back You can see an example here: https://bit.ly/4hwLGdW https://bit.ly/3EqJrtW February 10, 2025 at 08:24AM

Show HN: Infinite Horizontal Array of Text Editors https://bit.ly/4huGMxU

Show HN: Infinite Horizontal Array of Text Editors I made this app to write books chapter by chapter, while taking & browsing through temporary notes for each chapter. The leftmost sidebar is the list of chapters. The sidebar to the right of that is the list of editors in the current chapter. The UI & UX are a bit weird, but they have a basic logic to them. https://bit.ly/4hvV7u5 February 10, 2025 at 02:25AM

Show HN: Ricotta – Language Learning to Replace Anki https://bit.ly/4aQNmwo

Show HN: Ricotta – Language Learning to Replace Anki I’ve been tinkering with Ricotta for about a year now and I'm happy to announce it’s ready to for others to use officially. Largely the time has been spent making the project a framework to spin up newer projects quickly which I can share details around if anyone is interested. The app was born out of my frustration with Duolingo drilling me on words I knew. I moved on to creating custom Anki cards and found myself spending ages creating decks. It’s free, uses spaced repetition under the hood, and focuses on helping you learn what you want to without a course structure. I'd love to hear your thoughts or even feature requests: https://bit.ly/4aReE5Q https://bit.ly/4aReE5Q February 6, 2025 at 11:02PM

Show HN: Stock Analysis Feels Broken – Here's My Take on Fixing It https://bit.ly/3CwJZy5

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. Would this actually help investors, or am I just solving my own problem? Curious to hear from you: Which of these challenges resonate with you? What do you find useful, confusing, or missing? https://bit.ly/42MIPcr February 9, 2025 at 12:00AM

Show HN: I built a tool to create polls on Bluesky https://bit.ly/3Cr3uYQ

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: Stop sending files to sketchy servers and convert any file offline https://bit.ly/4grv8Tf

Show HN: Stop sending files to sketchy servers and convert any file offline Hey HN! I made How to Convert. Here's the problem I had and the solution I thought of: Problem When you search "How to convert PNG to ICO" on Google, you get a bunch of shady looking "free" results that send your data to unknown servers. The same is true for almost any conversion you are trying to do. So what do I want? I want something I can trust completely. AKA locally running, doesn't send my files or data anywhere and built by an independent developer building in public. Solution How to Convert Privacy-first: Files stay on your device and it works offline. Wide compatibility: Works with nearly any file type in an all-in-one app. If your file type is not yet supported, submit an issue to get it added! Unlimited use: One purchase, infinite access. Runs anywhere: Runs on Mac, Windows, Linux or the Web. https://bit.ly/4gyliyW February 6, 2025 at 06:36AM

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!

Show HN: PulseBeam – Simplify WebRTC by Staying Serverless https://bit.ly/410LZrw

Show HN: PulseBeam – Simplify WebRTC by Staying Serverless WebRTC’s capabilities are amazing, but the setup headaches (signaling, connection/ICE failures, patchwork docs) can kill momentum. That’s why we built PulseBeam—a batteries-included WebRTC platform designed for developers who just want real-time features to work. What’s different? Built-in Signaling Built-in TURN Time limited JWT auth (serverless for production or use our endpoint for testing) Client and server SDKs included Free and open-source core If you’ve used libraries like PeerJS, PulseBeam should feel like home. We’re inspired by its simplicity. We’re currently in a developer-preview stage. We provide free signaling like PeerJS, and TURN up to 1GB.
