Show HN: Vizzly – Visual testing platform with built-in review workflowshttps://vizzly.devHey HN! I’m Robert. I worked on [Percy’s SDKs/support from 2018–2022.](https://github.com/percy/cli/graphs/contributors) If you ever reached out to support or opened an issue, I probably helped you. Hopefully it was positive :) After a few years away, visual testing still felt stuck, so I'm building Vizzly.The problem: Design handoffs kinda suck. Designers make beautiful specs, devs implement them, then everyone realizes the details got lost somewhere. Current visual testing tools catch broken CSS but miss the real issue - making sure what ships actually matches what was designed, functionally (like really in the browser/OS/etc).What it is- Visual testing + review where you send actual screenshots (not DOM re-renders). Can be _any_ image to review (PDFS!)- Collaboration built-in: reviewer assignment, approvals, @mentions, screenshot-level threads.- Baselines: automatic (Git-aware), manual (not Git-based), or hybrid.- Team-based pricing; generous free plan for OSS; on-prem available.WhaSep 7, 2025 3:44 PM

Show HN: CrabCamera – Cross-platform camera plugin for Tauri desktop appshttps://crates.io/crates/crabcameraAfter building several Tauri desktop apps, I kept hitting the same wall: there's no reliable way to access cameras across Windows, macOS, and Linux. Every project meant reinventing camera integration, dealing with platform-specific APIs, and debugging permission issues. So I built CrabCamera – a Tauri plugin that handles all the camera complexity for you. What it does: - One API, three platforms: Same Rust code works on Windows (DirectShow), macOS (AVFoundation), and Linux (V4L2) - Permission handling: Automatically requests camera permissions on each platform - Format conversion: Takes care of the messy bits between platform formats and what your app needs - Error handling: Proper Rust error types instead of mysterious crashes - Hot-plugging: Detects when cameras are connected/disconnected The problem it solves: Before CrabCamera, adding camera support to a Tauri app meant: 1. Writing separate native code for each platform 2. Managing three different permission systems 3. Handling forSep 7, 2025 6:19 AM

Show HN: My Daily Journal – An iOS Digital Journal Without Subscriptionshttps://mdj.geodim.dev/I built a journaling app because I wanted something simple, private, and reliable - without subscriptions, third-party servers, or ads. Most journaling tools felt over-engineered or locked behind recurring payments. I wanted something lightweight and accessible.Right now it’s free for testing and feedback. Long term, I’ll add a single one-time unlock, not a subscription. This was my first big React Native project, I learned a lot about iCloud sync and native integrations along the way!*Features so far:*- iCloud backup (no external servers) - Daily highlights with a single image (on purpose) - Pin lock + biometrics - Custom prompts for entries - Morning & evening journaling - Mood tracker (syncs with Apple Health) - Weekly challenges & daily quotes (Stoic + others coming) - Reminders & timeline view*Would love feedback on:*- The UI/UX: does the minimalist approach work? - Features: what feels essential, missing, or over-complicated?App link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/my-daily-journaSep 4, 2025 12:15 PM

Show HN: Phofee – Photography social platform built with Svelte 5https://phofee.com/Hello everyone! For the past few months I have been working on Phofee, a social platform for sharing high quality photos.The goal: Make a website that allows users to easily upload, share, and discover photos without having to sacrifice quality or mangle their images.Phofee allows users to upload multiple images of varying aspect ratios. All sub images in a single post are displayed in a small photo gallery, so all your photos can be seen at a glance.One of Phofee's unique features is the automatic extraction of photo metadata. When a user uploads a photo, metadata such as Camera Model, Lens, Aperture, ISO, and shutter speed are displayed under your photo. This way, other photographers can gain better insight into your creation process and learn from it.For this project, I took privacy very seriously. - All metadata is deleted from user's photos before posting. - We store minimal user information. - We don't store user passwords (by using Google OAuth). - We don't use Google Analytics.Aug 18, 2025 1:18 PM

Show HN: I just built a tool to turn any photo into pixel arthttps://www.phototopixel.art/Hey everyone,I'm excited to share a brand new side project I just finished building: phototopixel.art. It's a simple web tool that automatically converts any photo you upload into pixel art.I've always been a fan of the aesthetic of pixel art, but manually creating it is a tedious process. After trying out some existing tools and not being fully satisfied with the results, I decided to build my own. My goal was to create a fast and easy-to-use solution that consistently produces great-looking pixel art.Behind the Scenes The core of the tool uses a combination of color quantization and pixelation algorithms. When you upload a photo, the system analyzes its color data and reduces it to a limited palette, while simultaneously creating the iconic blocky look.One of the biggest challenges was fine-tuning the balance between preserving key details and achieving a genuine pixel art feel. I experimented a lot with the algorithm to find the sweet spot, allowing users to choose different settingAug 14, 2025 4:13 AM
