  1. swagger-ui

    Swagger UI is a collection of HTML, JavaScript, and CSS assets that dynamically generate beautiful documentation from a Swagger-compliant API.

    Project mention: I Created API Docs for 5 Open-source Projects Within 10 Minutes | dev.to | 2024-12-25

    For the last few months, my team and I have been working on developing LiveAPI, a super convenient tool for creating API Docs with the help of AI. Existing documentation tools, for example, Swagger, take time and effort from developers to set up and maintain. We saw an opportunity here and developed an easy doc generation tool that works within a few clicks.

  5. flexsearch

    Next-Generation full text search library for Browser and Node.js

    Project mention: Building jargons.dev [#2]: The Dictionary Search Engine | dev.to | 2024-08-19

    The feature was powered by flexsearch โ€” a zero-deps full-text search library; ooh boy I'm a big fan of lightweight and no/low dependencies. I dug into how Nextra uses this to index content at build-time for search; it was interesting.

    Weโ€™re working on a static site generator for data analysts called evidence. Itโ€™s an alternative to conventional BI tools.

    Procedurally generating pages from data and linking them together is a core part of the offering. In many applications this is far easier for users than presenting them with a conventional filter interface.

    Project mention: Paperless-ngx: scan, index and archive all your physical documents | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-30

    paperless-ngx is successor of paperless and paperless-ng. Around that time I moved to https://teedy.io which is also opensource https://github.com/sismics/docs and also support ldap.

    I've been itching to give paperless-ngx a shot because I just love it but ldap hasn't yet ended up in the docs but the pull request was merged.

    Regardless, I just love how this project just keeps coming back to life

    ๐Ÿ—จ๏ธ Nextcloud Talk โ€“ chat, video & audio calls for Nextcloud

    Project mention: Slack AI Training with Customer Data | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-16

    Personally, I rather liked self-hosted versions of these:

    Mattermost: https://mattermost.com/

    Rocket.Chat: https://www.rocket.chat/

    Nextcloud Talk: https://nextcloud.com/talk/

    Out of those, Mattermost was the easiest to setup (just need PostgreSQL and a web server, in addition to the main container), however not being able to easily permanently delete instead of just archiving workspaces was awkward. Nextcloud Talk was very easy to get going if you already have Nextcloud but felt a bit barebones last I checked, whereas Rocket.Chat was overall the more pleasant option to use, although I wasn't the biggest fan of them using MongoDB for storage.

    The user experience is pretty good with all of them, however in the groups that I've been a part of, ultimately nobody cared about self-hosting an instance, since most orgs just prefer Teams/Slack (or even Skype for just chatting/meetings) and most informal groups just default to Discord. Oh well.
