Show HN: AT4K Launcher - Apple TV inspired Launcher for Android TVsHi HN!I'm the developer of OffChess a Hackernews favorite Chess puzzles app. About 6 months ago I saw someone reviewing an Apple TV 4k on their youtube channel and it looked vastly superior in terms of UI and UX to what Android based Google TVs provide. I asked the people over at r/AndroidTV if someone has ported Apple TV experience to Android TV and they said no. So I built a makeshift video and posted on Reddit. People there loved it and started sending me Reddit chat messages every day to build and launch it.So it took me 3 months to solve all edge cases and I built and launched AT4K Launcher in January and people absolutely loved it. Since then BGR, Android Authority, Makeuseof and multiple tech websites have featured it as one of the best Android Launchers.Clean, fast, minimal, pretty, no accounts, no tracking, no monthly subscriptions, no internet required. Just you and your apps. With Live wallpaper, custom app icons, icon packs support and multiple ways to modify your home scre

Collecting perceptual data for a possible CSS optical-center propertyPlay icons in YouTube, Spotify and Apple Music are not mathematically centered – they are optically centered. Most icon systems adjust this manually.I'm collecting perceptual data to explore whether a CSS “optical-center” property could be defined, similar to how fonts have baseline metrics.The experiment takes about 5–7 minutes (40 steps) and works on mobile and desktop. No login required.Results and the dataset will be shared publicly after collection.https://harley-sponsored-toolbox-operation.trycloudflare.com
Show HN: A text-to-motion-graphics engineHey HN,Like many bootstrapped founders, I needed to create a high-quality promotional video for my startup (NexChat). But hiring a motion graphics designer or spending weeks keyframing UI animations in After Effects wasn't feasible.To solve this, I built an internal text-to-motion-graphics tool. It takes plain text descriptions (e.g., "animate floating Gmail and Reddit icons connecting to a central hub" or "show a laptop screen syncing with a mobile UI") and programmatically generates the motion graphics, seamlessly compositing them over existing video footage.I used it to generate 100% of the UI animations, floating icons, and text tracking in my promo video. The whole process took me less than an hour.Here is the output (YouTube link):https://youtu.be/YGILQN4Rl1Q(Note: The video itself is a promo for my main app, but I am sharing this here to showcase the motion graphics engine that generated it).The tool is currently just an internal pipeline, but I want to see how well it handles d

Launch HN: Mosaic (YC W25) – Agentic Video EditingHey HN! We’re Adish & Kyle from Mosaic (https://edit.mosaic.so, https://docs.mosaic.so/, https://mosaic.so). Mosaic lets you create and run your own multimodal video editing agents in a node-based canvas. It’s different from traditional video editing tools in two ways: (1) the user interface and (2) the visual intelligence built into our agent.We were engineers at Tesla and one day had a fun idea to make a YouTube video of Cybertrucks in Palo Alto. We recorded hours of cars driving by, but got stuck on how to scrub through all this raw footage to edit it down to just the Cybertrucks.We got frustrated trying to accomplish simple tasks in video editors like DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro. Features are hidden behind menus, buttons, and icons, and we often found ourselves Googling or asking ChatGPT how to do certain edits.We thought that surely now, with multimodal AI, we could accelerate this process. Better yet, an AI video editor could automatically apply edits based off what it
Let's talk in great detail about whether macOS 15 Sequoia is worth upgrading1.safariFrankly, I only care if the new system is faster chrome, and Safari currently has only two advantages for me:A. Live Text is really easy to use, I think Apple's server cost is high for this OCR feature, which is not supported by Chrome on Windows or macOS (pausing to copy video text on YouTube is very useful)B. Compact layout and UI design really increase the vertical space, it can integrate tabs, address bar, and extension icons on a single bar, which is great, I use trackpad gestures to switch and close tabs, so it doesn't increase the difficulty of operation, which I have reported to Google many times but their UI design is slow to improve, for the screen of the first resolution, I believe that Chrome's UI will take up a huge spaceIn addition to this, there are too many disadvantages of Safari:The speed of switching between multiple tabs is not comparable to chrome at all,Safari will drop frames when youtube videos are played at twice the speed of 4k,Insufficient extension,I
