Ask HN: Are SQL developers generally familiar with JSON, VSCode and Docker?
Many business analysts use SQL, have for a long time. They are probably not your target audience. With the problem being JAVA specific, you'd likely want to start there
This sounds similar to the goals of my hof tool (https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof), lift type definitions out of code so they can be defined in one place, then generate the code for all the places. Is that sounding like what you are after?

Show HN: Open SaaS โ An open-source alternative to paid boilerplate starters
Having built something similar, the biggest challenge for users is that they have to use a bespoke language, like WASP here. I suspect that it is also your biggest challenge as well.
Mine is built on CUE, which at least has the potential to become a more widely used language. CUE hasn't reached sufficient maturity for broader adoption yet, so I continue to face this same problem.

OpenAI: Prompt Engineering
Here's a big one I needed to get ChatGPT to do something more sophisticated with a JSON object response (predates functions and all that)
https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/blob/_dev/flow/chat/pro...
It no longer worked after a model update some time ago, haven't tried recently.
I found codellama to be much better for this and require fewer instructions, an anecdotal validation for smaller, focussed models
-
Ask HN: What's the most compelling AI prompt result you've seen?
I was surprised out how you can define arbitrary grammars using arbitrary formulation and it would follow it. Of course you have to redo the prompt every time there is an update... such a pain

HTTPie Desktop: cross-platform API testing client for humans
CUE is indeed a beautiful language, will get those mind juices flowing for sure!
There is more work to be done on the codec implementation, but if you just want to split yaml/json across files, CUE is a great option
You might also like my project, built on CUE: https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof We have a TUI where you can explore and work with CUE, JSON, Yaml
-
Show HN: A tool to Convert JSON schemas into TypeScript classes
You can pretty much make up any pseudo grammar like this one, which is a reduced JSON object that is close to CUE: https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/blob/_dev/flow/chat/pro...
No need to be formal or use a standard format

Guidance: A guidance language for controlling large language models
Yea, in particular for this project, they have created a bespoke templating system.
You can get the same thing with Go text/templates by adding chat function(s) as custom a helper: https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/blob/_dev/lib/templates...

Textual Web: TUIs for the Web
100% one of the best things about building a TUI is not having the pain of modern web development. I do think there is a way to have a CLI & TUI come from the same code, so you can get the best of both, or pick the best for the task at hand.
experiments in progress here: https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/tree/_dev/lib/tui

Jacobin: Minimal JVM written in Go and capable of running Java 17 classes
CUE is another interesting language to use from within Go, and is rather natural, given CUE is implemented in Go, but you can also do way more cool things with CUE via the Go API.
We're using CUE to validate and transform data, as input to code gen, the basis for a DAG task engine, and more

How to build a Google Meet AI assistant app in 10 minutes without coding
Effective communication and efficient meeting management are key to a team's success in the modern workplace. Recognizing this, we will develop an AI-powered meeting assistant app to transform Google Meet recordings into automatically generated meeting notes with key takeaways and action items. The blog post is tailored for every creator from developers to no-coders who are interested in the intersection of AI and productivity tools. It's particularly useful for those with limited AI-development experience and who want to build AI applications by using simple low-code tools like Unbody and Appsmith.

NoCode Newbie: Restaurant hoping to consolidate and reduce overhead
And if you don't need a mobile app and can get by with web only, check out Appsmith. It's open-source, can connect to Google Sheets, Airtable, and any API or database, and is free for unlimited users and apps. Feel free to DM me if you need a hand getting started with either one. I'm Joseph from the Appsmith Developer Relations team, and GreenFlux on the AppSheet forums.

Git in Appsmith: Every Developer Has Been Saved by Git โ So, Why Isnโt it a Feature of App Platforms?
This wasn't an easy journey. While this functionality was in high demand, early versions were frustrating to use. In our earliest implementations, it wasn't even possible to pinpoint where the conflicts were in a file. Even members of the Appsmith development team would avoid using our early Git implementations. We even had a rule for our internal โHackathonsโ that using the Git feature was banned because it kept breaking! So we know why other app platforms had avoided fully implementing Git: it really was a challenge to get it working right.
