gladwindos··on Show HN: API Typegen – Generate TypeScript types from API responses
Yeah I agree that it is impossible to know exactly what the fields are without a real documented source, but I figured this could be a decent option when there are no other alternatives available. While it's not perfect, it can provide a starting point for creating types based on sample data, which can then be refined as you work with the API and gain more understanding.

Yeah I think that’s a good idea as a few people have thought the same thing. Thanks for the feedback!

Tbh, there is no benefit of using this package if the API you are working with has an openapi spec, as there are other great libraries to help you generate accurate types such as https://github.com/openapi-ts/openapi-typescript. But I made this package to use when working with external apis that don't have an available spec.

gladwindos··on Ask HN: API Proxy vs. API Gateway?
Ok load balancing definitely seems like a feature that seems out of scope of an API Proxy. Do you use the Kong gateway for microservices?

Zoho is another one I'm actually considering as I think it's free for one email
gladwindos··on Ask HN: What do you use for custom domain emails?
I had a look at this, but the setup seems like it's for automated emails. I'm mainly looking to be able to personally send from the custom email without ending up in spam...

gladwindos··on Ask HN: What fields or technologies are you excited about?
I think the obvious answer right now is anything related to AI. But I'm actually quite excited about the embrace of open-source applications that traditionally have not been, such as Cal.com and Mattermost.
gladwindos··on Monorepos: Please Don't (2019)
This looks interesting! I'll check it out and maybe it will help me wrap my head around how they handle the complexity.
gladwindos··on Monorepos: Please Don't (2019)
We use monorepos in my company too, but we use one for each product, and it works really well for that. But for the whole company to be in a single monorepo just seems like it would require a lot of effort to maintain.
gladwindos··on Monorepos: Please Don't (2019)
I’ve heard about how huge companies like google are using a giant monorepo, and I honestly don’t understand how that could work. But I guess it does…
gladwindos··on GitHub: Packages support for fine-grained PATs
I fully agree! I know the risks, but for personal projects I really don’t want to think about having to rotate my keys.
