Congrats on the launch! One of the positive byproducts of the open web platform is that products like this are possible. Much of what I share in other communication tools are links to things on the web, but sharing ends up forcing a context

Dynaboard founder here. This is an interesting and deep topic, which we plan to share more about in an upcoming technical blog post. We are still experimenting with the best ways to constrain the LLM's output such that it always compil

Congratulations on the launch! I've been impressed by Momento's cache infrastructure during its private beta — the team's execution around developer experience makes integration painless so you can hit the ground running. I&#

That's one way to describe it. :) One note: we have some lightweight persistent data stores built-in for convenience, like a key/value store. However, you're always able to build on top of your own database / API and mos

Just for fun, some of our engineers (including swimmadude66) spun up this Hacker News look-alike[1] app in Dynaboard that hits the HN API. [1] https://dynaboard.com/images/screenshots/DynaHacker_News.png

Thanks for the report. We're now shipping a polyfill for ResizeObserver on the landing page. Drop me a line at alex AT dynaboard DOT com if you're still running into trouble.

We will via Monaco. Using the desktop app, you’ll even be able to load your VS Code config into Dynaboard, or use your own $EDITOR.

by alexkern 5y ago
Yes we do — everything in the editor interface and the apps you build with it have light-and-dark modes by default. We didn't have the bandwidth to make the landing page have a light-theme, but the product itself supports both modes al

Thanks for the kind words! We will not be pricing per developer or per user, but rather usage-based. We aim to be affordable for applications at scale, because we believe the cost of an internal app should not increase linearly with your he

We're decidedly a "low-code" or even “yes-code” tool. You use the drag-and-drop interface to design the app, while all of the app's logic is written in an in-browser text editor environment. Everything is multiplayer fro

Hey HN, Dynaboard founder here. Sharing a bit more about how we built Dynaboard, since I think this audience will appreciate it. More will be shared in future blogs :) Multiplayer: We used the YJS project ( https://github.com&#x2F

CEO of Dynaboard here. Thanks for this feedback. We're looking to make Dynaboard really affordable, especially for smaller teams, and entirely usage-based (no per-seat cost). Our goal is to price it more like a cloud infrastructure pro

Stacked changes are an essential QOL feature when working with large monorepos. Kudos to the Graphite team for expanding the visibility of this development pattern and making it more accessible to teams of all size.

Hey Mark, thanks for taking a look and appreciate the feedback. You can think of Cleargraph like a proxy for geth with some bonus features. You can point a local instance of Cleargraph to your own JSON RPC API endpoints using the helm chart

It allows you to query the blockchain using a consistent API and offers some features not present in the standard JSON RPC API, like ENS domain resolution. Makes it useful for building decentralized apps.

Awesome! Would love to hear your thoughts :)

Author here: we noticed consistent sources of duplicated code when designing cross-platform dApps and built Cleargraph out of necessity. We thought it would be broadly useful as a generic dApp back-end, so we polished it up and open sourced

FilePizza creator here! I hear you—the dependency on the broadcast servers has been giving me issues. I'm planning on going back to a home-grown file transfer method over simple WebRTC, rather than using WebTorrent. Hopefully will get

Match is built for finding images that visually look similar. It doesn't understand the semantics of the image itself. There's no way to attach keywords, though plain-old-Elasticsearch is pretty good at that.

That would be awesome. A demo is in the works. :)

Thanks! :) I've added a bit of documentation for the `all_orientations` parameter on POST /search and clarified what we mean by "rotation". By default, Match search for all 90 degree rotations of the given image. We&#x27
