    Project mention: Ask HN: Best OSS SQL Query Builder in Any Language | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-08

    https://prisma.io is popular as I understand it. I've been trying out https://strapi.io the last week and am thoroughly impressed.

    They both do much more than build queries. One big thing both do is automate database migration calculations. Strapi goes further and gives you a CMS and admin UI on top, as well as doing a lot more of the complex query building from a json object. Both still require a fundamental understanding of the data model and SQL

    Project mention: Ask HN: Does Anyone Use a "Closed Core" Software Model? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-16

    > "Are there examples of companies adopting this model?"

    Many examples across the industry:

    - Autodesk AutoCAD (closed) + Plugins/Addons (many open)

    - MS Windows (closed) + Many 3rd party programs (open)

    - Github (closed) + Github Actions (open)

    - Npm (closed) + Npm modules (mostly open)

    > "What are the potential benefits or pitfalls?"

    Benefits:

    - Harder to replicate, the company gets to keep the "secret sauce" a secret

    - Opening up a way to "extend" the platform means 3rd party developers add value to your system

    - The core isn't open, so less effort is required to maintain compare to OpenSource

    Pitfalls:

    - Closed-source is hard to verify, company is essentially saying "trust me bro"

    - Less innovation, as user's can't contribute to the core

    > "How does it impact community engagement and software adoption?"

    There's hardcore FOSS advocates that will hate anything not fully open. But a business has to make money and protect it's IP, having a "closed core" is one way to do that and ensure a sustainable business model.

    Another approach is the opposite, open-core + closed-premium-addons. An example of this is "React Admin"

    - Open Core -> https://github.com/marmelab/react-admin

    - Premium Modules Offering -> https://react-admin-ee.marmelab.com/

  • vscode-restclient

    Project mention: Ask HN: Alternatives to Postman? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-04

    Same. I use https://github.com/Huachao/vscode-restclient

    If you need a little more control or automation, it can also generate scripts for cURL or PowerShell (and others) directly from the request. Organization is on you, but I prefer that over a heavyweight and opinionated tool like Postman.

    The .http files can also be used in Jetbrains Rider (probably their other suites as well)

  • azure-rest-api-specs

    The source for REST API specifications for Microsoft Azure.

    Project mention: Shared APIM Service | /r/AZURE | 2023-12-09

    Agree here. When I was on the API Management team, I generally saw customers set up a repository of API specifications (incidentally, this is also how we do it internally at Microsoft - check it out at https://github.com/azure/azure-rest-api-specs) - those specifications generally drive the API Management side of things, but with review from a centralized API management team. The “spec” should consist of both the specification (Swagger, SOAP, GraphQL SDL, etc.) and the policy or policies appropriate for the API.
