    • Project mention: I can't stand using VSCode so I wrote my own (it wasn't easy) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-21

    I had a near-identical experience. I looked into switching in 2019 and ran into this 2016 bug which was a showstopper for me. Fixed it myself, grand total 4 line diff. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10643

  • Playwright

    Playwright is a framework for Web Testing and Automation. It allows testing Chromium, Firefox and WebKit with a single API.

    • Project mention: Sometimes things simply don't work | dev.to | 2024-04-23

    The consensus I could gather is either use playwright or use a workaround to solve it in the puppeteer layer. The root cause of the bug is a websocket size limitation on the CDP protocol for chromium.

    • Project mention: How I Used Electron and React to Create a Sweet UI for FFMPEG | dev.to | 2023-12-15

    For a swift and efficient setup, I began by cloning the Electron-React Boilerplate. This boilerplate provided a pre-configured combination of Electron and React, along with Redux and Webpack, setting a solid foundation for the project. This choice allowed me to focus on building the unique features of my application, leveraging the boilerplate's stable and community-tested framework.

  • SwitchHosts

    Switch hosts quickly!

  • notable

    The Markdown-based note-taking app that doesn't suck.

    • Project mention: Noteable.io Is Shutting Down | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-16

    And I was confusing it with https://notable.app/

  • desktop

    Focus on what matters instead of fighting with Git.

    • Project mention: Launch HN: Diversion (YC S22) – Cloud-Native Git Alternative | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-22

    Congrats on the launch! It's always exciting to see more competition in the version control space.

    One question I have is whether you guys are better than:

    https://desktop.github.com/

    This seems to do the exact same thing, be free forever, and have a more mature GUI that is also easier to use than regular terminal git. In my firm, even with people who don't know how to code, they can use github desktop (since it babies you through the process of committing code.)

  • theia

    Eclipse Theia is a cloud & desktop IDE framework implemented in TypeScript.

    • Project mention: I can't stand using VSCode so I wrote my own (it wasn't easy) | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-21

    As an alternative to VSCode, consider Theia[1].

    Open-source, runs all the VSCode extensions, etc.

  • Kap

    An open-source screen recorder built with web technology

    • Project mention: Show HN: Cap – open-source alternative to Loom | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-28

    I thought it was Kap for a moment https://getkap.co/ similar name, similar product (but that one is ready to use).

    Also a bit confused as it seems there is nothing there besides an idea and a landing page.

  • jan

    Jan is an open source alternative to ChatGPT that runs 100% offline on your computer. Multiple engine support (llama.cpp, TensorRT-LLM)

    • Project mention: AI enthusiasm - episode #2🚀 | dev.to | 2024-04-11

    Jan.ai is a 100% local alternative to ChatGPT: you can download LLMs and run them directly from within the application, or even prompting them and retrieving their response via API.

  • beekeeper-studio

    Modern and easy to use SQL client for MySQL, Postgres, SQLite, SQL Server, and more. Linux, MacOS, and Windows.

    • Project mention: From a Day to 17 Minutes: How We’ve Dealt with Slow Build Times | dev.to | 2024-03-08

    The last step for each platform's build process is to upload the app to our GitHub releases repository. We automated this step from the beginning, but when we started creating builds for the new M1 chip Macs, we had to add a manual step. This involved merging files needed for the auto-updater to work with the M1 builds.

    • Project mention: Notesnook – open-source and zero knowledge private note taking app | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-20

    The home page title has the word zero knowledge, I guess?

    Their GitHub has slightly more info regarding this, but I agree that stuff like this should have at least a page dedicated for it that explains how they've implemented their security.

    > Notesnook is a free (as in speech) & open-source note-taking app focused on user privacy & ease of use. To ensure zero knowledge principles, Notesnook encrypts everything on your device using XChaCha20-Poly1305 & Argon2.
