cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Ithihāsas – a character explorer for Hindu epics, built in a few hours
That’s a fair point, and you’re right.

Right now the data isn’t directly modeled from primary sources like the Valmiki Ramayana or the Mahabharata. It’s an MVP built quickly using curated summaries, so the graph is definitely incomplete.

Planning to expand coverage and move towards a more accurate, source-grounded knowledge graph over time.

Is this a transpiler or compiler?
cvrajeesh··on Indian govt spamming its citizens through WhatsApp
According to some stats, India has 487 million WA users. Sending these many messages from a single account should have raised a red flag.

I can understand the sending of mass messages in a national emergency, but this one is for political gain.

cvrajeesh··on Indian govt spamming its citizens through WhatsApp
The ruling party in India is using government missionaries to spam its citizens for their electoral benefits. How could WhatsApp allow this?

That's what I learned today, thank you

cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Static website hosting with auto optimization
I'm not targeting users with that level of technical experience or those who want to spend the time and effort to do all those.
cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Static website hosting with auto optimization
yes, the fallback is done on the server-side based on the accept header
cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Static website hosting with auto optimization
I guess they don't handle form submissions automatically, need to write code to handle it.

this is the correct URL https://www.clodui.com/docs/form/add-form

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll check those options

Founder here: I'm pronouncing it as "clod ui". The name came from the word "Cloud" + "UI" and removed "u" from Cloud so the domain is available.

Thank you for the heads-up

Thank you, we're using AWS Cloudfront as the CDN.

ToS needs to be re-written; currently, I used an online service to generate it :(

cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Static website hosting with auto optimization
Thank you, that's a great suggestion. I need to go back to the drawing board and improve pricing based on all the valuable inputs collected from here
cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Static website hosting with auto optimization
agreed, contents need to be improved. I'm a solo founder working on a shoestring budget. Planning to raise funds and invest more time on improving contents

we fall back to the original image when webp is not supported by the browser
cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Static website hosting with auto optimization
Thank you, that's a good point. I'll change unlimited bandwidth in the business plan to limited.

Founder here: my entire stack is on AWS. I'm using CloudFront as the CDN
cvrajeesh··on Show HN: Static website hosting with auto optimization
Thank you, I'll check that

Founder here: the advantages over FTP based approach are - no need to install extract tools and deployments are atomic, so you can rollback instantaneously.

Settings up Cloudflare or AWS CloudFront + S3 is easy for users who all familiar with technologies. What I have seen is, there are many web designers out there who design awesome websites but lacks technical knowledge. My brother was like that, he designs websites but I was the one who was helping him to host and write PHP scripts for handling form submissions etc... that's one reason I built a service like this.

Thank you for the suggestion on pricing, I'll consider it and update it accordingly.

Update:

Image lazy loading enabled when website optimization settings is set to "Full"

Founder here: I do like Netlify, IMHO it's targeting developer community, I'm targeting users who all are still developing websites in the traditional way.

minify saves a few bytes per file but image optimization feature reduces your website size considerably. Usually, people rely on image CDNs to do this, we provide it with hosting service itself.

Founder here,

yes caching and gzip is done by web servers. Clodui does much more than that

* minification of CSS, JS and HTML

* automatic webp image generation, dynamic image resize

* and the website is served via CDN, which connects to the nearest CDN server

* automatic form handling etc...

We're really targeting users with less technical knowledge in server-side but creates awesome websites.

there are few popular ones Slack, VSCode, Atom editor, etc...
cvrajeesh··on Onedrive is slow on Linux but fast with a “Windows” user-agent (2016)
my 1$ hypothesis - partner company to which Onedrive UI project outsourced didn't had any Linux machine and all developers/QA working for this partner company were Windows users, to improve compatibility matrix they had kept few Mac machines in the office to run tests. Moreover this team might not received proper spec about the backend API at the initial stages of the project development, would have receive only at last stage of the development. So they try to get it working only in one or two platforms to make the release happen :)

Another solution I can think of is - encrypt the URL with a symmetric key. Decrypt it to generate the thumbnail
