topnde··on GPT-6 Astra
What do you need to learn? Just open codex or claude and tell the idea, go back and forth a few times and you have a prototype you can use.
topnde··on GPT-6 Astra
Exactly! After years of having running data in one app, walks in another, workout in another, I vibecoded a private and tailored to me app for all things fitness. It has been great. Has all the features I need and nothing more and it's private by definition.

This is a bit outside the point, but how do you actually read while taking a walk, logistically speaking? Do you mean you take a walk somewhere, sit down on a bench, then take your kindle out? Or actually read WHILE walking?
topnde··on Launch HN: Omnara (YC S25) – Run Claude Code and Codex from anywhere
Congrats on the launch!

I am currently building something similar but only for Codex app (not terminal) https://remotecodex.app An e2e encrypted link between the Codex app and the phone.

topnde··on Ask HN: Those making $500/month on side projects in 2025 – Show and tell
I run drawcharts[1], which is a tool to help you build good looking hand-drawn style charts. It is not very expensive so I am currently making around 500 a year from it.

Also, as someone who likes to go to conferences and meet and connect with people, I found it hard connecting to 50 people at a conference on Linkedin and then reaching back out to them. So I build LinkedMemo[2] which is a CRM on "top" of Linkedin. You scan a profile, the profile is automatically saved and enriched in the CRM with a quick note.

topnde··on Launch HN: Kenobi (YC W22) – Personalize your website for every visitor
What they do is ask the visitor from which company they come from. Behind the scenes, this is what I imagine happens: - Kenobi scrapes that website and understands what it does - Has some prompts to transform the text in your website through the lens of your user: eg "Transform this text [your website text here] to appeal to a visitor from this company that does the following [scraped content here]"

Of course internally it might be much more complex than this but this is how I would do this if I had to build it.

AdonisJs gets pretty close to Laravel.
topnde··on Drawing.garden
I am part of the second group. Wouldn't even call it anxiety, but just some sort of "light disgust" feeling. Ok I guess it's cool, but you can't do anything useful with it. You can't even draw something meaningful with it like the domain says.

Was this plugin used to create the service OP posted?
topnde··on Ask HN: What tools would you use to build a new personal project in 2022?
Depends on the project.

Static website: - Svelte with SvelteKit.

Fullstack website: - Svelte, a NodeJS server hooked up to some nosql DB like MongoDB. Might even use Firebase (depending on data structure).

Mobile app: - Flutter or react-native.

VSCode as IDE/text editor.

topnde··on Ask HN: Contractors, what is your hourly rate?
Hi, do you add VAT on top of that? Also, do you count a day as 8h or how does it work?
topnde··on Python is Actually Portable
Hey, I am a JS dev and don't know a lot about python. Can someone ELI5 what is going on here? Thanks.
topnde··on Ask HN: Web frameworks – which less popular frameworks are you using and why?
At the moment there is no external library for state management in Svelte. There is however Svelte context api and stores but I doubt you can make complex apps with that alone same as is very hard to do it with React context api.
topnde··on Ask HN: Web frameworks – which less popular frameworks are you using and why?
Javascript: SvelteJS

Using it for some personal projects with Vite and it is a breath of fresh air. I use React for work during the day, but coding in Svelte just brings me joy.

It does not have it by default on the right, but you can move it yourself.
