“Show HN: Ant – A JavaScript runtime and ecosystem Hello HN! I'm the author of Ant, a JavaScript ecosystem built around a runtime with its own JavaScript engine. Ant also includes a package manager, the ants.land package registry, a platform for deploying and hosting applications, and Ant Desktop for building native desktop apps with web technologies, similar to Electron. The goal is for these pieces to work as one coherent platform while remaining compatible with the wider JavaScript ecosys”

“Show HN: I built an open-source alternative to Claude Cowork Hey HN, A few months ago, I tried to automate some of my work with the popular AI agent OpenClaw, and then I quickly realized how difficult it is to get it to work with APIs and third-party services securely, which is essential for a lot of work-related tasks. Then I realized OpenClaw is more of a personal assistant and it was not designed to get actual work done as a coworker. So I started to build Valmis, an alternative to OpenClaw t”

“Show HN: Mochi.js: bun-native high-fidelity browser automation library Hi HN, I’m sharing mochi.js ( https://github.com/0xchasercat/mochi ), a Bun-native, raw-CDP browser automation framework. It's designed to make programmatic browser use more effective by focusing on consistency and measured parity with regular traffic, purely from the JS layer, against stock Chromium. The most common forms of browser automation focus heavily on client-side line by line probes, which a”

“Why am I seeing a weird font in my Chrome/Brave? I didn't remember doing something fishy, but suddenly I noticed all text in my browser and even in some webpages(not all) was in this weird font style. I don’t know if it's a font issue or something else. I have already tried resetting to Chrome defaults, and tried setting the font to serif in settings/appearance/customise fonts. Out of frustration with Chrome, I downloaded Brave it happened on it too. But it doesn't happen on Firefox. So somethin”

“Show HN: Zenòdot – Find if a book has been translated into your language I'm a multilingual reader (Catalan/Spanish/English/Italian), and I kept hitting the same wall: I'd hear about a book and have no way to know if it existed in my language. Turns out this is a genuinely unsolved problem. There's no single database that tracks which books have been translated into which languages. ISBN registries are fragmented by country. Open Library has great English coverage b”

“Show HN: Free animated icon library for Vue Hi everyone! Tim here, maintainer of the lucide-motion-vue library. I build this as a way to use nice animated icons in my webapps. We were already on lucide, and found animate-ui animated icons as a great collection, unfortunately React only or made to be used with shadcn. So I ported the library to Vue, and combined it with another library (lucide-animated.com). As both libraries dont share the same animations and/or icons, this creates the larg”

“Tell HN: Helium is the best browser I ever used Helium (https://helium.computer/) is Chromium-based, with all the Google odiousness removed, emphasizing minimalism, privacy, zero telemetry, built-in uBlock Origin, and no sync or AI features. I am just a regular user that was looking for a Firefox alternative for a long time. I do not know why Helium does not get more attention. It's so fast all the time even with several hundred tabs, it never crashed, it is strongly privacy ”

“Show HN: AffineUI a 2 file C++ GPU/HTML5 UI that can replace Electron I thought this might be useful to C++ engineers working on games, graphics, content in C++ looking for a good lightweight html5 Electron style UI engine. AffineUI is deeply optimized and meant to run as close to 120hz as possible, but supports (most) of html5 and is easy to integrate with your app. It also is highly crash resistant using weakrefs, handles, etc. to avoid footguns. A zero-dep drop in lib that could be a cross be”
