1. Show HN: I Built a Lightweight Nutrition Tracker for the iPhone
URL: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/fitbee-calorie-macro-counter/id6443979108
Author: yqiang
Description: Hey HN,
I was overweight in college and started my weight loss journey using an app called MyFitnessPal. Tracking calories not only helped me lose weight but also taught me a lot about nutrition and helped establish healthy eating habits that continue to benefit me. However, I’ve always been frustrated by the existing nutrition tracking apps. Many are slow and bloated, lack accurate nutrition data, or don’t respect user privacy. I wanted to build something that I’d love using myself.
A few things that make FitBee stand out:
* Fast, lightweight and to the point - The app is just about tracking your nutrition and makes that front and center. I've tried to make things that you do often as simple as possible (e.g., log yesterday's breakfast).
* Robust Apple Health support - You can read/write data to Apple Health. I wear an Apple Watch so it's great for getting the energy burned through exercises.
* Accurate nutrition data - The nutrition data is sourced from the USDA dataset and nutrition labels off the packages. I also spent effort adding east asian foods (e.g. things you get at 99 Ranch or Weee) to the database, since those were hard to find/track in other apps I've tried.
* Photo Logging - You can take a photo of a food and get an estimate of the calories and macros. It's not 100% accurate but it's been super helpful for me when eating at a restaurant that doesn't have published nutrition info.
* Recipe importing - You can pretty much point any recipe at the app and it'll import the ingredients and generate nutrition information for you. As I got more into fitness, I started to cook more so this has been super helpful.
* No Ads - The app is monetized via a subscription.
* Subscription - Most of the features are free, but there are a few which require a monthly or annual subscription ($4.99/month or $39.99/year).
You can try FitBee here: https://apple.co/4aGUw5X. I'd love your feedback!

12. Show HN: Trilogy – A Reusable, Composable SQL Experiment
URL: https://trilogydata.dev/demo
Author: efromvt
Description: Recipe: Add a semantic layer to SQL; use it drop the requirement for joins/group_by; add in type-checking and a lightweight python-esque import syntax to enable reuse and hierarchical querying.
Trilogy is intended to provide an accessible but deep alternative to raw SQL. It offers a new-but-inspired-by-SQL syntax that compiles to various dialects of SQL (with DuckDB as the default).
The target audience is people that really like SQL for analytics and data engineering, but want less boilerplate and sharp edges and looser coupling to the DB.
Semantic models can be easily shared, composed and iterated on in an interactive session, preserving the adhoc workflows that make SQL so powerful.
The "higher level" of the language vis-a-vis SQL makes it straightforward to extend into ETL (an experimental basic DBT integration is available), offering potential to optimize a processing graph across intermediate staging nodes automatically.
This higher level of abstraction also offers some nice opportunities for more reliable text to SQL for LLMs. A similarly basic integration is available to demonstrate this, as is a very basic VsCode extension and electron-based IDE.
Tech stack is primarily Python. Open source, MIT license. Github is linked from demo page. Thoughts, feedback, contributions all welcome!
Note: renamed from PreQL (see prior show https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40728938) to avoid confusion with the many PreQLs of the world. The SQL pun
naming space is unfortunately well-explored.
Other SQL replacements (all great, all worth a look!):
PRQL (pipelined SQL alternative, all new syntax) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36866861
Malloy (all new syntax, semantic focus) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30053860

13. Show HN: A NextJS and MERN stack boilerplate to automate all the boring stuff
Author: arthuryuzbashew
Description: Hey HN, I'm a solopreneur and I ship apps like a madman.
I realized I was doing the same thing over and over: set up DNS records, connect DB, listen to Stripe webhooks...
So I built ShipSeo for 2 reasons: 1. Save time and focus on what matters: building a business 2. Avoid headaches like emails ending in spam or waiting 3 days for Google to approve
I hope those boilerplates will be as helpful to you as it is for me. Would love your feedback pls

15. Show HN: Video Composition Tool Powered by Qwen2.5-Coder and FFmpeg
URL: https://huggingface.co/spaces/huggingface-projects/ai-video-composer
Author: victormustar
Description: This tool allows you to drag and drop your own assets, such as videos, audio, and images, and then use natural language instructions to generate a new video. It uses the Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct model to process your assets and instructions, to generate a valid FFMPEG command. This command is then executed on your assets to create the desired video.
What's particularly exciting with this is that it's powered by an open-source model licensed under Apache 2.0 (https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct). Tried to build something similar ~1.5 years ago, but at that time, it seemed only possible with proprietary models.

16. Show HN: Notifico – Open-Source notification server with Email & Slack support
Author: GamePad64
Description: Hello, HN! I have built an open source notification server, that supports Email, SMS (SMPP), Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp Business.
It is called Notifico.
I have worked in a bunch of tech companies, and in each of them there was a half-baked, in-house built notification server for sending emails and other notifications. So, I've collected the requirements, processed them and written the implementation in Rust!
The idea is simple: You send event_id and context (JSON object), and It loads the template, renders it with variables from the context, sends it to the recipient.
Features:
- No-code configuration. No knowledge of JS or other language is required.
- The templates can be edited without the need of backend developers.
- HA configuration with AMQP 1.0 support (e.g., RabbitMQ). Every component scales horizontally.
- Powerful templating language (it uses minijinja internally: https://github.com/mitsuhiko/minijinja)
- List-Unsubscribe support
- Admin interface for managing Events, Templates, and Pipelines.
Roadmap:
- Discord support
- Mattermost support
- Bounce email handling
- User-facing API for managing subscriptions
- Message view tracking and statistics.
- Tracking pixels
- Notification center implementation for Web and Mobile.
- Auto-retry for failed messages
- Template and Pipeline versioning

23. Show HN: Create AI Agents with React
Author: bazaz
Description: For the last couple of months, we've been exploring how to make agentic AI development more approachable for web developers.
Here's what we have, so far:
import { Agent } from "react-agents";
const NoteTaker = () => {
return (
<Agent>
<Prompt>
You are a note-taking assistant that helps organize and summarize information.
</Prompt>
<Memory type="vectorstore" />
</Agent>
)
}
It's somewhat inspired by [Priompt](https://github.com/anysphere/priompt): instead of rendering a user interface, our framework renders a prompt + action interface for AI agents.The renderer is backed by a stateful agentic runtime loop, with a library of components you can import to add capabilities like TTS, database and social media integration. We want the experience to feel nice and webby like Vercel, but for AI agents.
For those interested in trying it out:
npm install usdk -g
usdk create
We're particularly curious about:
- Does this approach feel natural to React developers? Does it help you transition to agentic AI?
- DX roadblocks we should fix for our next release
- Integrations you'd like us to add (We already have Discord, X, and we're working on Twitter Spaces)
- Different environments this can integrate with (we've tested local, electron, browser, and server)
The source is open and we're actively working on improvements.

28. Show HN: Wishr – A Simple Way to Share Gift Ideas with Loved Ones
URL: https://www.wishrapp.net/
Author: getproduct_dev
Description: Hi HN! With Christmas coming I've got something for you!
I built Wishr, a mobile app that makes sharing gift ideas and wishlists effortless. After struggling with scattered gift lists across notes apps and messaging threads, I wanted to create something better.
Core Features:
- Create wishlists with or without registration
- Share lists privately or publicly
- Add images to wishes for clarity
- Mark items as "bought" to avoid duplicates
- Works offline with sync across devices
- Available on iOS, Android, and web
Tech Stack:
- Flutter + Firebase
What Makes It Different: Unlike generic todo/list apps, Wishr is purpose-built for gift coordination. You can create shared lists where everyone can contribute ideas, perfect for group gifts or family events. The "bought" status is synchronized but hidden from the wishlist owner, keeping surprises intact.
Why I Built It: Every holiday season, my family struggled with gift coordination. We'd have multiple WhatsApp threads, duplicate gifts, and lost ideas. Wishr solves these pain points while keeping the joy of surprise giving.
Try it out: https://wishrapp.net
The app is free to use. I'd love to hear your feedback, especially on the sharing and collaboration features. Source code is not open-source, but I'm happy to discuss the technical implementation and challenges faced during development.

36. Show HN: Zipshare – one-step Android screen sharing for support teams
URL: https://www.getzipshare.com
Author: mlaux
Description: Hello HN community!
I work as an Android developer at a large retailer, on the app that the in-store employees use to see their schedules, view product details, get support, etc. Part of our engineering on-call rotation involves helping these in-store employees with any app issues they may encounter. There are always a few times every rotation where I know solving someone's problem would be way easier if I could just see their screen as if I were in-store with them.
However, many of these employees are non-technical and wouldn't want to go through the onboarding of TeamViewer or Zoom, are under time constraints in a busy store, or (understandably) just wouldn't know how.
As a side project over the past few weekends, I've been building an Android screen sharing tool called Zipshare (https://www.getzipshare.com) that aims to be absolutely as easy as possible to use for the person sharing their screen. All the sharer needs to do is receive an email (or eventually a text) on their Android device and click a link. They will be sent to the Play Store, and upon launching the app, will automatically be sent to their session. There's no need to create an account or enter a meeting code - there's literally one screen in the app ("xyz@abc.com invited you to share your screen, would you like to?") In fact, I originally wanted to use Play Store Instant Apps to eliminate the installation step entirely, but you can't open a raw socket from an Instant App, which I currently depend on... [1]
My goal with Zipshare was to do one thing and make the experience as streamlined as possible. For example, there's no voice or video calling because chances are the two parties will already be on some other kind of call.
I focused on Android for this initial version because the wide variety of devices makes giving support more difficult than on iOS, and because I have way more experience with Android :)
You can try it by entering your email address and waiting on the next page while clicking the link you receive on an Android device. When this is more built out, support agents will be able to sign in to their account and click a button to generate a new link/send it out. I also want to integrate with platforms like ServiceNow, PagerDuty, and Zendesk to allow generating screen sharing sessions directly from tickets.
Other features I want to include are automatic notification suppression while sharing (for privacy), an "instant connectivity check" that reports basic system state to the agent like cell/Wi-Fi signal strength and whether a VPN is enabled, and an annotation feature so that agents can draw attention to certain areas of the screen.
Technical details:
* Screen sharing: WebRTC with signaling provided by a self-hosted LiveKit server instance
* Android side: Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, LiveKit SDK, Play Store Referrer API to route the session ID through to the app install, "classic" Android 3rd party libraries (OkHttp, Retrofit, KotlinX serialization, ...)
* Website and API: Node.js, Express, two Pug templates, one CSS file, 50ish lines of JS excluding LiveKit, SQLite DB with one table.
Design details:
* Icon: Fiverr
* Colors: ChatGPT
* Landing page copy: The best I could come up with
Please give it a try and let me know what you think! I am eager to test this on as many devices as possible, especially older or low-end devices. I built this because I wanted it, but would this be useful for you or your team? Any feature requests?

Author: woc_zhang
Description: I'm the founder of DROP. I've been plugging away at this project for over six months now. We managed to secure funding, which was a huge relief. You see, I had a previous startup called cowtransfer.com. It was a file transfer gig, kind of like WeTransfer. I had a good run with it, but in 2021, I decided to sell it and move on. Now, jumping back into the digital assets arena was like starting from scratch. I kept asking myself, what does the AI creative industry really hunger for? How can AI swoop in and make their creative content production process a breeze? I mean, it's like trying to solve a jigsaw puzzle with a blindfold on. And I've come to the conclusion that assets are the heart and soul of this AI - driven world. It's like the secret sauce that makes everything click. We're on a wild ride here, trying to figure out how to build a platform that not only stores and manages these precious assets but also supercharges the creative process. It's a tall order, but I'm up for the challenge, armed with a bit of hope and a whole lot of caffeine.

URL: https://xplex.me/
Author: debloper
Description: Multi-streaming has struggled to gain mainstream adoption due to platform disincentives, lack of immediate benefits for streamers, and unsustainable pricing models for multi-streaming services.
Introducing xplex v1.0.0 — a self-hosted, containerized, multi-streaming server with a user-friendly web dashboard. It gives you full control over:
- where to host
- how much to spend
- which all platforms to stream to
To make deployment easier, xplex is also available as a 1-click app on the DigitalOcean Marketplace. I've found this approach particularly convenient: spin up a server when I go live, then delete the instance when done streaming, to keep costs minimal.
xplex is for anyone who wants to multi-stream without needing advanced technical expertise. I've designed it to be accessible, but I'm actively looking for feedback to make it even simpler.
Relevant Links:
- Docs: https://xplex.me/setup/
- GitHub: https://github.com/debloper/xplex
- 1-click: https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/xplex
Live Q&A: I'll be multi-streaming at 15:00 UTC on Twitch and YouTube. Feel free to drop by with questions or suggestions:

- YouTube: https://youtube.com/@BreakerSpace
Would love your feedback, both technical and non-technical, to improve xplex!

URL: #
Author: dev-vaayen
Description: Hi everyone - Posting on HN for the very first time. I am working on an open-source project called Gmail-TUI that aims to replicate the Gmail Web-UI in a TUI-Environment. As of now, users can Login, navigate within this app and compose & send mail.
App GIF (v0.2.0-Alpha): https://imgur.com/LGWmkLP Project Repo: https://github.com/dev-vaayen/Gmail-TUI/tree/main SMTP-Protocol in Golang: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/sending-email-using-smtp-in-go...
The Idea Behind This App
Just a few days after I had installed Ubuntu, I lost the access to the GUI due to a failed and interrupted update. This led to me being forced to use the TTY-environment (started using the ctrl+alt+fkeys combination) and ending up feeling helpless for a long time as I had never used even the most basic Linux commands.
Months later, this experience led me to look into TUI or Terminal based User Interfaces, which run on Terminals and are like lighter versions of GUIs. This is where the idea of creating my own TUI-Application for Gmail came into mind as I was unable find one that could fit my use-case.
Expected Functionalities
To complete this lack of TUI-Application, I would like the Gmail-TUI to borderline replicate the web-version of Gmail, allowing users to perform most of the core tasks by providing following features/functionalities in it:
-> [DONE] A login page for entering email-ID and password
-> [DONE] Composing and sending mails
-> [WIP] Listing received emails with email-IDs in the Inbox
-> [WIP] Opening the content of the received mail after clicking it
-> [WIP] Viewing sent email in Sent-Box
-> [DONE] Area to choose from the Compose, Inbox, Drafts, Sent buttons
For sending composed mails and validating login, I am using SMTP-Protocol. The logic for validating login is:
> If a login alert email can be sent to the same email address entered in the Email-ID and Password fields, the user will be considered logged in and allowed to access the app dashboard. The dashboard includes options for composing emails (and checking the inbox, drafts, starred mails, etc. in future)
Networking is a new concept to me and I am still working on properly understanding the IMAP-Protocol for implementing the Inbox-feature and will be adding it along with a support for allowing the user to send a well formatted email with attachments using this app.
I know this isn't a finished project and there are lots of features that are still lacking but still, please provide your feedbacks, opinions or any constructive criticism that may have come in your mind while reading this.
Is there anything wrong with my approach or the direction that I can be taking? Please share your honest thoughts, all will be really appreciated.

Description: Hi everyone, I’m a developer who wanted to solve a gap I’ve noticed with Apple Maps. While Google Maps has the Timeline feature to track places you’ve been, Apple Maps doesn’t offer anything like it. That inspired me to create Hansel!
With Hansel, you can track your location history in the background with low power usage. It logs the places you spend time at—like restaurants, parks, or cafes—and lets you add labels to those visits. There’s also a timeline slider, so you can easily review how your movements have changed throughout the day.
Your privacy is super important to me, so all your data is stored securely in your iCloud account. No one else (not even me) can access it.
If you’ve ever wished for a personal, private, and simple way to track your location history, I’d love for you to try Hansel.
You can check it out here: https://fruitfulapps.com/hansel/
Let me know if you have any questions or feedback—I’m always looking to improve!
