yuegui··on Show HN: Windrunner – AI-powered project collaboration workspace
Thanks! More to come.
yuegui··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (May 2026)
I am building pagebowl: https://www.pagebowl.com/

A lightweight service for instantly hosting HTML, Markdown, and ZIP-based static pages. The goal is to make sharing simple: upload a file, get a live link, and let it expire automatically. The use case I am targeting at is: to allow users to share AI generated files easier and have a place to render and host them for a short period of time.

One thing I’ve been learning is how much faster it feels to build on cloudflare page, worker, and D1 compared to my old way of setting everything up myself with docker, postgres, nginx and etc on hetzner for a small project. (I am not affiliated with any company, product, or organization mentioned above.)

yuegui··on Ask HN: What's your quarantine side project?
I've continued to work on my open source BI application: https://github.com/shzlw/poli The roadmap is to make it a all-in-one database application!

yuegui··on Show HN: Software Manager, the Game
A little game inspired by the devshop game that I saw here a while ago. You will work as a manager to manage the projects, teams and try to survive in 60 days. Happy holidays!

There is also a similar open source alternative: Poli (https://github.com/shzlw/poli) Disclaimer: I work on Poli.
yuegui··on Show HN: Poli – An easy-to-use, open-source BI alternative
The main motivation behind the project is that I'd like to have an easy-to-use SQL to Dashboard web application that I can use to solve my own problem. I did try search and use existing BI tools first but found that they are either too complicated to setup/use or the license/fee is not friendly enough. I believe they are designed for more advanced user cases for a good reason and don't seem to suit my simpler needs. Thy's why I build Poli. Yes, I am the solo developer on this project.

I launched a simple mobile BI app before but it didn't get any traction so for Poli, there is no recent plan to make it mobile friendly :(

Thanks. The project is built mainly to solve my own problem that I often receive requests from the business side that they wanna access the data in the production system (We use different RDMS and Elasticsearch) so they can generate some simple charts in Excel and display to the customers. The request is not difficult but we just don't have a system for that. Since then, I have been trying different BI solutions like Power BI, Kibana and some other open source tools. They are either too complicated to setup/use or the license/fee is not friendly enough to me. That's why I build Poli. I want it to be more focusing on easy to use, having an open license and the developer can use SQL to build reports easily for the end users or embed the reports in their systems.

The UI is not configurable at this moment. You can embed the full screen view in an <iframe> and then adjust URL parameters to select which report to load.

Author here. Thanks everyone for using Poli. I am happy to answer any questions!

Thanks. If you are talking about those three Slicers (User, Product, Year) in the Slicer & Charts screenshot, they are dynamic in a way that the values displayed are queried from the database but I don't think they do the same thing as jsonform.
yuegui··on Show HN: Zeu.js – UI components for building real-time TV dashboard
Thanks! The demo is not built for the mobile and is using a fixed layout :( but I will definitely add that to my todo list!

It will depend on the size of the grid, number of positions on one level and number of robots. For fast movers, autostore can prepare those products and bring them to a few of the top levels when users are not actively picking or doing putaway. When the picking starts, those robots can get accessed to fast movers more quickly.

For maintenance, there is an extra area outside the grid where you can move the robot out of the grid to do some maintenance work on it without affecting the rest of the system.
