Show HN: Mojave Paint for macOS, edit images like it's 1999https://mojavepaint.app/We all need a swiss army knife for images. A tool for really getting in there and dealing with the pixels precisely. You might be combining images into a sprite sheet, you might be matting images to squares, cutting out solid backgrounds, re-tinting graphical elements. For a website, a video game, for an app.There's a million photo editors, there's a million design tools, and Mojave Paint can do those things in varying degrees but "graphical asset production" is its first and primary mission.It's cheap! $9.99 (one-time, sad I even have to say that) for the "Pro" version. It's Mac-only, and Apple Silicon Mac at that. Does it look a little like Photoshop 5.5 from the year 1999? Maybe a little but also it's got plenty of its own original ideas. (Blog post on that is forthcoming…)I've always been passionate about image editing tools for the technically-minded so I'm throwing my hat in the ring in that space. And sure GIMP is for the technically-minded but boy is it ugly on the Mac!Jul 10, 2026 12:29 PM

Show HN: Banana Battle – DOS Gorillas rebuilt as a web gamehttps://michael480th.github.io/Banana-Battle/As a kid, I loved to play the DOS Gorillas game where you would throw bananas at your opponent, smashing cities as you go.I wanted to play it, so I rebuilt the classic QBasic/DOS "Gorillas" game from scratch as a mobile web app. It is playable in the browser and installable to your iPhone home screen.It's all vanilla HTML/Canvas/JavaScript. No frameworks, no build step, no dependencies, no tracking. A single static page served from GitHub Pages.A few bits that were fun to build: - Destructible terrain: buildings are painted to an offscreen canvas and explosions erase pixels - Ballistic physics with wind, sub-stepped so a fast banana can't tunnel through a thin building between frames. - Native share sheet (Web Share API) so you can text a friend your result with a "beat my score" challenge linkIt's hot-seat two-player (pass the phone, or share a keyboard: arrows to aim, space to throw).No original Microsoft code or assets — the code and pixel art are all my own (with some help from ClaJul 10, 2026 6:14 AM

Show HN: PandaPage – host an HTML page with one curl, no signup, auto-expireshttps://pandapage.clawshop.shI wanted to put a quick HTML page online to share, a mockup or a one-off demo, without a signup, a git repo, or a build step. Existing options all wanted one of those, so I built this.One request creates a site:``` curl -X POST https://pandapage.clawshop.sh/api/deploy \ -H "content-type: application/json" \ -d '{"files":{"index.html":"hi"}}' ```You get back a URL like pandapage.clawshop.sh// and a token. The token is the only thing gating updates and deletes, so there are no accounts. You can also POST a zip instead of JSON, and binaries go as base64.Pages expire after 24h by default (configurable per deploy from 10 minutes to 7 days, and re-deploying resets the clock). Expiry is a KV key TTL, so a page starts returning 404 the moment it lapses, and an R2 lifecycle rule sweeps the underlying files a few days later. No cron job.Because it is just a JSON API with no auth handshake, coding agents can deploy to it directly. I gave Claude Code a short prompt and now "host this page" turns iJul 9, 2026 7:22 AM

Show HN: envapt, typed env config for decoupled TS codebases (Node to edge)https://github.com/materwelonDhruv/envaptHi HN. I'm Dhruv and I've been working on envapt for about a year now and I've FINALLY completed the roadmap I scope creeped and QA'd over the past few months. It reads environment config in TypeScript and returns the typed value instead of string | undefined, from whatever source you bind. It runs on Node, Bun, Deno, Cloudflare Workers, the browser, and well, anywhere.Most typed-env libraries have you declare every variable in one central schema and read the result from one object. That works well for a single application. Mostly. That didn't work for me because in a framework or a monorepo, decoupled packages each read their own config values, and sharing one config object across every package just doesn't make sense to me, plus some other nits.envapt does the opposite. You bind a source once at startup, and on Node/Deno/Bun it binds your .env files and process.env for you, with cascading profiles per environment. After that, ANY typed read in ANY file uses that source, and each valuJul 8, 2026 4:14 PM
