Show HN: JavaScript library that makes any list a smooth picker of any shapehttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49377550Hey HN! I built this solo.You can check it out here: https://loopem.tahazsh.com/This idea had been lingering in my head for a long time. I kept thinking about the best way to turn the idea of a picker into a math problem, where I could describe the layout I want and it would just work.By pickers, I mean something like what `` does in HTML, but with more visual items, whether they are images, icons, colors, or anything that would enhance the user experience.For example, say you have an e-commerce app that shows different color options for a product. Instead of listing blue, red, and so on, you can show the actual colors, and users can drag or flick through them.To prove it works, and to give you usable options out of the box, I added built-in layouts: line, arc, wheel, cover flow, fan, and stack.I also made sure it stays smooth with any number of items. It's still fast because I virtualized the list, so it only renders what's on screen.Accessibility is on by default too. Arrow keys, Hom

Show HN: Building Table Canon, an AI Campaign Memory Engine for TTRPGshttps://tablecanon.app/Hey HN! I built Table Canon to solve a problem my playgroup kept running into: 3-4 hour tabletop gaming sessions leave behind massive audio recordings, but standard meeting note-takers treat every session as an isolated island, butcher fantasy terms, and don't know who is speaking.I wanted an engine that tracks long-term state across months of games, so I built a pipeline to extract entity updates, open quest hooks, and character promises across sessions.The Tech Stack:* Transcription: whisper-large-v3-turbo * Diarization: pyannote for speaker embeddings & voice profile matching Extraction & Memory: OpenAI API with Structured Outputs (JSON Schema enforcement for state updates) * TTS & Audio Recaps: Kokoro / Chatterbox Turbo Music Generation: ACE-Step-v1.5-XL-Turbo for rendering session summaries into lyrics/balladsA Few Engineering Lessons & Challenges:* State Delta Extraction vs. Context Explosions: Feeding 20 prior session transcripts into context windows quickly becomes cost-prohibi

Show HN: Epho – run Claude Code with a curlhttps://epho.ioHey folks, Burak here.Epho is an API that allows running Claude Code, Codex or Opencode in a sandbox in the cloud. It abstracts away sandboxes, and allows running coding agents with a single HTTP request.Epho came out of our own struggles with building our own AI analyst: - Sandboxes give you bare machines; you need to configure them for agentic workloads. - Each agent behaves differently, and you need to build integrations with each of them. - Sandbox providers are not very reliable, which means you need to figure out a multi-provider strategy to avoid failures. - Logging, artifacts, input/output, event streaming, and all of the other operational aspects need to be figured out.We had to go through the pain ourselves. We got to a point where things got quite reliable, and it became more obvious to us that this should be a primitive on its own: send a POST request, get the events streaming back to you.Epho is an agents-as-an-API product: you send a request, it spins up a sandbox, config

pub.doub.ly
Show HN: Check if any of the $656M in unclaimed royalties at The MLC is yourshttps://pub.doub.ly/Hi HN, I built this. Quick background on why it exists:When music is streamed on digital streaming platforms (think Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora), there are two separate royalty streams: one for the recording, paid through your distributor (DistroKid, TuneCore, CDBaby), and one for the underlying work (generally known as publishing). The work side's mechanical royalties are collected by The MLC, a nonprofit that was created by the 2018 Music Modernization Act (MMA). If you haven't registered your songs with The MLC, there are issues with your metadata, or about half a dozen other reasons, that money will never reach you, it just collects in a big pile we call the "black box".That pile is big. The MLC's own dashboard currently shows over $656M is held (themlc.com/blanket-royalties), and the biggest problem is the MMA dictates that The MLC cannot hold that money indefinitely. At some point, by law, The MLC must distribute this big pile of cash, and since they don't know who it's suppose

markdownbuddy.inawa.app
Show HN: Markdown Buddy – Native macOS Markdown Editor with Quick Look and Xcodehttps://markdownbuddy.inawa.app/I write a lot of project documentation in Markdown, and two things kept annoying me on macOS: Quick Look shows .md files as raw text, and Xcode shows a README as plain source. So I built the app I wanted. Swift and AppKit, 4.8 MB, sandboxed. The editor is a plain NSTextView. The rendered view is WKWebView, so it uses the system engine rather than a bundled browser, which is where the size difference comes from. Quick Look and Finder thumbnails are separate app extensions sharing the same renderer.Beyond preview: open a folder as a workspace and browse every .md in a tree, search across all of them, and see a graph of the links between documents with broken ones flagged. An Xcode Source Editor extension opens the file you are looking at, rendered, from the Editor menu.One implementation detail I found non-obvious. The live preview restyles the NSTextStorage as you type. The hard rule is that it must never touch attributes while an input method is composing, or Japanese, Chinese and Kore

testmagic.link
Show HN: testmagic.link – Zero-setup magic link testing for coding agentshttps://testmagic.linkI built testmagic.link because Claude Code kept using my personal Gmail when testing magic-link authentication, filling my inbox with test emails.I know there are existing email testing services, but the ones I found require signing up, getting credentials, and integrating an API. That felt like overkill when I just wanted to tell Claude Code: "test the email sign-in using testmagic.link".So I made testmagic.link. No signup, no API keys, no integration. It’s basically a one-liner with a domain that’s easy to remember. I also added an llms.txt file at the root, so agents instantly know how to read the inbox without me explaining it.There’s also an optional mail-scanner simulation: add ?prefetch=1 to the inbox URL, and testmagic.link will GET each message’s magic link once before you open it, without following redirects — similar to how Outlook Safe Links or a corporate mail scanner might prefetch links. This is useful for catching magic-link flows that break when a security scanner visi

Show HN: Mail client optimized for self-hosted email across multiple domainshttps://mainly.crnst8.com/As someone with a clean IP range and ADHD, I manage my inbox by splitting across a variety of accounts for a variety of domains. I’ve never really found a client that scratches all my itches, so I spent some time making one and it’s now become my daily driver.It’s optimised to be visually simple and highly configurable for things like colour, folders/subfolders, sorting and tweaking the search query function to better match what you search for often. There’s also some little nice-to-haves like a purpose-built PWA, bulk domain onboarding, MCP and dark mode.It’s fully self-hostable, open source and free of any AI bloat/VC fodder. Not trying to sell anything but rather make something un-shitified and simple to use, would love some feedback if you’ve given it a try! :~)
