Why not? Looks like a completely reasonable Show HN. Could probably use a better blurb i.e. 'tune for HN-interestingness' like I mentioned above.
Have you looked at this, for instance https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22336638 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22336638
It's linked at the top of the Show HN page. You can also email the mods for help with a submission you think is a good HN submission but didn't get much attention.
- mb2100 1y agowhat would you recommend to "tune for HN-interestingness"? Yes, I read that: > Include text giving the backstory of how you came to work on this, and explaining what's different about it. that's why I wrote the blurb that way.
- pvg 1y agoThis is a better blurb https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44498576 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44498576, your new one is a set of instructions. I think it just needs to be a little clearer, you're on the right track with the second post to focus on something more concrete but it's better to show your whole thing instead of some subthing of the thing.
