  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • hypershell

    Spawn shells anywhere. Fully peer-to-peer, authenticated, and end to end encrypted

  • hyperapp

    Discontinued 1kB-ish JavaScript framework for building hypertext applications. [Moved to: https://github.com/jorgebucaran/hyperapp] (by hyperapp)

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • hyperterm

    A terminal built on web technologies

  • Mosh

    Mobile Shell

  • Seems so: I like the idea. Would be, however, to integrate with mosh [1] and feel much better if there was a well audited SSH implementation beneath the hole punching and rendezvous layer.

  • hyperbeam

    A 1-1 end-to-end encrypted internet pipe powered by Hyperswarm

  • It took me a minute to realize this, but HyperShell seems to be (or can be thought of as) a demo app for the (previously unknown to me) "hyper ecosystem"---Hyperswarm, Hypercore, Hyperdrive, etc: https://docs.holepunch.to/ . Perhaps an even tighter example than HyperShell is hyperbeam [1]: look at the usage section and API, and then note that it's all implemented in like 200 lines of code.

    I'm no expert in this field, but this stuff looks like legos for cutting-edge P2P solutions. I think this is the coolest thing I've seen since Tailscale.

  • hyperswarm

    A distributed networking stack for connecting peers.

  • shonion

    static tor + sshd for reverse shell debugging of CI containers and other natted environments

  • I sometimes need to connect to a CI runner to debug some CI build script. I made a (quick hack of a) tool [0] for doing that by creating an Onion service on the runner listening to SSHD, and printing a one-liner I can paste on my dev machine to connect to it via Tor. This sounds like basically the same idea, but using a DHT and hole punching instead of onion routing.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
