1. Show HN: I built a modern Goodreads alternative
URL: https://kaguya.io/
Author: vasanthk1125
Description: Since 2005, Goodreads has been the default book tracking site, connecting millions of readers. But let’s be real—it’s barely changed in 20 years. It’s the same site it was, just with more ads.
Still no half-star ratings.
No proper DNF (Did Not Finish) option.
UI still looks like it's from 2005.
Amazon owns it and doesn't care.
What’s live:
Custom shelves (Organize however you want)
Rich-text reviews (format your thoughts properly)
10-star rating system (More nuance than 5 stars)
DNF, On-Hold, and other reading statuses
Likes, shares, comments on reviews
Import your library from Goodreads/StoryGraph
A beautiful design that doesn’t make you feel like you’re using an ancient website
Coming next:
Deep tagging system (Genres, moods, character traits, tropes)
Beautiful stats & insights (Visualize your reading habits)
Discussion forums for every book (Think subreddit-style discussions)

5. Show HN: Fast Transition from Firefox to Librewolf
URL: #
Author: biomcgary
Description: After looking at various browser alternatives to Firefox (my daily driver for years), I decided to try LibreWolf and the transition was trivial on a Debian based system (by HN standards). My extensions even ran without logging in (YMMV).
First install LibreWolf: sudo apt update && sudo apt install extrepo -y sudo extrepo enable librewolf sudo apt update && sudo apt install librewolf -y
Second: After closing Firefox, copy Firefox profile (in ~/.mozilla/firefox/) to Librevox profile (in ~/.librewolf/).
Note: I copied the profile into the default profile (as seen in about:profiles) not default-default. I then launched the profile and all my tabs were restored, bookmarks, logins, etc. I will update if something seems broken.

8. Show HN: Vibecoders – Find software engineers that are good at vibecoding
URL: #
Author: andrewfromx
Description: If you are concerned about AI replacing your coding job, fear not! Just level up and get very good at vibecoding.
"Vibe coding is the art of leveraging AI tools to their fullest potential in software development, creating a seamless fusion between human creativity and machine intelligence. It represents a paradigm shift where developers orchestrate AI systems rather than writing every line manually."
The big tools out there are cursor, cline, aider, and Claude Code.
This site was made with Claude Code from just 1 prompt. Go ahead and register and give your bio, github url, etc and you can be one of the early users. The idea is that people looking to build something can now go to just one person and really get in a few days what took a team and weeks before.
Yes, the 10x or 100x engineer is no longer a myth.
Here was prompt that made the site:
You are to build the website vibecoders.com. It is a place to find software engineers that are very good at vibecoding:
"Vibe coding is the art of leveraging AI tools to their fullest potential in software development, creating a seamless fusion between human creativity and machine intelligence. It represents a paradigm shift where developers orchestrate AI systems rather than writing every line manually."
Use that quote on the homepage. Use tailwindcss and either esbuild or vite and not npm. You can use React or another front end javascript system. The backend should be in golang using the echo framework. Please keep main.go in the root directory and not inside a cmd directory. Use sqlite for the database. The tables are:
users
- unique username
- bio
- linked_in_url
- github_url
- photo_url
- password
sessions
- user_id
- token (random uuid)
Seed the database with 3 users
Andrew Arrow 30 years in software development, I use Claude Code to vibe. https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewarrow/ https://github.com/andrewarrow https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/127054?v=4 testing
Jane Smith https://i.imgur.com/HQs9d76.png testing
John Smith https://i.imgur.com/ANgLsc6.jpeg testing
The homepage should list the top 3 users. Make the photos rounded and a width of 200.
The backend should have api endpoints like
POST /api/login (compare password and insert session into database and return cookie) DELETE /api/logout (delete the session token from database and cookie) POST /api/register (compare two passwords, insert user row and then send user to login) PATCH /api/user (update the currently logged in user from cookie) GET /api/homepage-users
The frontend should be a responsive layout that looks great on mobile and desktop. There should be clear ways to login, register, update your user info, and logout. Use a dark theme.

9. Show HN: Mmar – open-source, zero-dependancy, cross-platform HTTP tunneling
URL: https://github.com/yusuf-musleh/mmar
Author: ymusleh
Description: Hey HN!
For the past couple of months, I've been working on and off on a cool project I'm excited to share.
mmar (pronounced "ma-mar") is an open-source, zero dependency, cross platform and self-hostable HTTP tunnel built in Go. It allows you to easily expose your localhost to the world on a public URL.
You can easily create an HTTP tunnel right away for free on a randomly generated subdomain on "*.mmar.dev" if you don't feel like self-hosting.
This isn't something new, in fact there's quite a few of alternative HTTP tunneling tools out there. mmar is my attempt to optimize for a super easy developer experience and simplified implementation. None the less, I had a blast building it and I think developers could find it pretty useful.
Additionally, I documented the whole process of building mmar through devlogs. You can read about the thought process and implementation details here (https://ymusleh.com/tags/mmar.html).
If I would suggest one devlog to read, I highly recommend devlog 5 (https://ymusleh.com/mmar-devlog-005.html). I describe how I built a (very) basic DNS server just to run simulation tests for mmar (a bit of an overkill, but a fantastic learning experience). I dive deep into the DNS protocol and explain why I needed to implement it.
Finally, I would love to hear your thoughts and feedback. If you try mmar out, let me know!

15. Show HN: Search Engine Wrapper/Router
URL: https://search.vale.rocks
Author: OuterVale
Description: I built a super lightweight search engine wrapper that allows users to search across websites from a single interface with quality of life additions.
- Lightweight: The project is extremely quick to load and run. It uses only vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
- Custom Default Engine: Users can select the search engine they'd like to use by default.
- Bang Patterns: Users can add special commands (eg, "!g" for Google, "!yt" for YouTube) to their query to quickly switch to a specific search engine or website.
- Snap Patterns: Users can use the same special commands as bangs, substituting '!' for '@', to do a search in their chosen engine that is filtered to a specific site. For example, searching for only GitHub results on DuckDuckGo.
Check it out and let me know what you think! I originally built it just for myself but figured others may see use in it. I'm especially interested in hearing what bang/snap patterns would be useful to add.
I've also found it very handy when using Kagi's Starter Plan, which only permits 300 searches monthly.

Author: rasengan
Description: My partner Matt and I have been working on soj.ooO. It has only been up for a few weeks and has gained a lot of traction.
Our goal was to fight the memory hole to ensure that algorithms do not control human discussions (eg auto decay on other sites) and generally bring natural law back into the discussion and relevance equation.

17. Show HN: Dockerized VS Code with Goose Coding Agent
URL: https://github.com/PlatOps-AI/goosecode-server
Author: Bahushruth
Description: I was tired of setting up my coding environment from scratch whenever I switched machines, and I wanted easy access to Goose AI (an OpenAI-powered coding assistant) without complex configuration.
So this weekend I hacked together Goosecode Server - a dockerized VS Code that runs in the browser with the Goose AI agent pre-installed and configured. It's nothing fancy, just combining existing tools in a useful way.
What's interesting is that beyond personal use, it can be integrated as a tool call for AI agents people are building. Since it's containerized with a standard interface, you can programmatically spin up instances, execute code, and have your AI agents interact with the development environment. Perfect for AI workflow automation or agent-assisted coding pipelines.
The whole thing is:
- One container that runs anywhere Docker works VS Code server accessible via browser
- Goose AI terminal agent pre-configured
- Git integration with configurable credentials at runtime
- Easily callable from AI agent systems through Docker API
I built it primarily for myself, but realized it fits nicely into the emerging AI agent ecosystem. All you need is to provide your OpenAI API key in the .env file.

18. Show HN: Coding for Nothing – The Ultimate Soundtrack for Tech Interviews
URL: https://codingfornothing.com
Author: samartin
Description: Hey HN,
I've been coding for decades, and over time, I've seen developer culture shift into an obsession with grinding LeetCode, doing random side projects for no real purpose, and engaging in pointless technical acrobatics just for the sake of it. So, I decided to channel that energy into Coding for Nothing, a satirical project that turns this absurdity into a parody music band for burnt-out devs.
What is Coding for Nothing?
It's a satirical website and project dedicated to capturing the surreal grind of modern developer life. Imagine a rock band, but instead of singing about love and rebellion, we belt out songs about CI/CD pipelines, AI taking your job, and the existential dread of yet another JavaScript framework. It's a musical and cultural critique wrapped in absurdity.
Why Did I Make This?
Burnout is real. Many of us have spent hours solving competitive coding problems that have little real-world application.
Tech interviews have turned into performance theater, rather than an actual measure of skills.
Side projects and open-source contributions are becoming the de facto requirement for employment, even if they have no practical utility.
I wanted to create something fun that resonates with devs who feel this grind but still love coding.
How to Try It Out
You can check out the site here: https://codingfornothing.com
We have quite a few tracks up already. You can listen without signing up or doing anything annoying.
If you're a musician and want to contribute, we welcome collaboration.
This is a satire, but it’s also a conversation starter. I’d love to hear from other devs, what’s the most absurd coding-related thing you’ve done just because it was "expected"?
Looking forward to your feedback!
By the way, everything on the website, including the content, music, and even most of this post was generated using AI tools like Gemini, ChatGPT, Suno, and DeepSeek, if you have a job for us, please let us know!.
The machines are coding (and rocking) for nothing too! Like and subscribe?

Author: tristcoil
Description: Built Japanese immersion text reader and YouTube subtitle assistant for vocabulary and sentence mining. Has built in dictionary, kanji definitions, audio, even some very simple SRS flashcards. Nothing crazy. Something similar to LingQ.
There are many website/apps like this for Japanese already, pretty much all of them are paid with monthly subscription though.
Hanabira is simpler, but open source and can be easily self-hosted with just 3 commands that spin up few containers.
Example of the system is running on hanabira.org.
It is Alpha in functional MVP stage, but I want to work on this for years to come.

Author: subh10
Description: Hey HN,
We’re the team behind Bestsys & Maven AI Agents. We believe the future of work isn’t just AI-assisted—it’s AI-driven. Today, businesses spend over $500B annually on outsourcing repetitive work (finance, HR, customer support, data entry). We built Maven AI Agents to replace human-driven outsourcing with autonomous AI workers that learn, execute, and improve over time.
How It Works: Maven AI Agents learn workflows by observing human employees. They autonomously execute tasks with near-human accuracy and 24/7 availability. Unlike RPA or AI assistants, they don’t just assist—they replace entire teams. Why Now? Businesses are realizing generic AI isn’t enough—they need company-trained AI workers. The shift from SaaS (tools) to SaaS 2.0 (autonomous execution) is happening now. Advances in LLMs & multi-agent AI enable scalable, company-specific automation. Traction So Far 25+ companies onboarded AI agents improving at 64% efficiency per month Automating finance, HR, and customer workflows for real businesses Preparing for multi-tenancy & SaaS launch What’s Next? We’re scaling quickly and looking for feedback from developers, AI researchers, and startup founders. If you’re building in the AI automation space, we’d love to hear your thoughts.

URL: https://transcelestial.space
Author: jharohit
Description: CEO and Co-Founder here. A weekend before our launch I decided to force myself to just use Cursor Composer and Claude Sonnet 3.5 to create our landing page for Transcelestial's Space business line. Images by ImageFX by Google. It's been a goal we set forth to do at the start of the company and finally have been able to open up the behind the scenes tech we have been building for it.
Hence design and story telling was key for me and I wanted to put it exactly on paper. I have been pushing the team to do more with AI so took this on as a challenge to get this website up, forcing myself to not write a line of html, css, js and instead JUST using cursor composer.
I kept waiting to feel:
- dread as a coder to see my skills taken away (and done better by AI),
- shame on not "rolling sleeves up and just writing code"
- fear that it will not be as good from design or code perspective, etc
In the end, all I felt was a deep rooted excitement I have only occasionally felt in my life. Got this live in time but also walked away filled with a hope for the possibilities this unlocks for creative people. This by no means is a complex project but having coding web pages since the days of Dreamweaver and my high school back in the early 2000s, I know many things which I could have possibly done faster if I was writing it myself but definitely 24 hours would not be possible.
what a time we live in and all I feel as a life long coder is happiness and awe of what it will unlock in terms of ideas for people like me and kids around the world.

35. Show HN: Tqu – A Minimal CLI for Queue-Based Task Tracking
URL: https://github.com/primaprashant/tqu
Author: primaprashant
Description: Hey HN! I built a simple CLI tool called "tqu" to match my workflow for tracking tasks and todos.
Previously, I kept tasks grouped in a single text file, adding tasks to the right group whenever they came to mind, and deleting them once completed. I intentionally avoided features like priorities, due dates, or statuses because I found them distracting.
This CLI tool improves my workflow by storing tasks in a SQLite database. Now I don't have to manually edit text files, delete tasks, or explicitly create new task groups. Instead, tasks are marked as completed by setting a completion timestamp, effectively hiding them from view. New queues (task groups) are created automatically on the fly.
You can install it easily with:
uv tool install tqu
# or
pipx install tqu
# Add a task to the "bills" queue
tqu add "pay electricity bill" bills
# Complete (remove) the most recently added task from "bills"
tqu pop bills
# List all tasks in the "bills" queue
tqu list bills
# Delete a specific task by its ID
tqu delete <task-id>

URL: #
Author: SuperV1234
Description: Hello HN!
I'm excited to share my second published game, BubbleByte, open-source and written using my C++20 fork of SFML, now wishlistable on Steam!
- https://store.steampowered.com/app/3499760/BubbleByte/
---
Imagine the cozy charm of Stardew Valley blending with the addictive pull of Cookie Clicker. You can:
* Zen out watching cats auto-pop bubbles
* Go full gamer mode chasing x25 click combos
* Build a bubble-popping empire with clever cat synergies
Check out the BubbleByte Steam Announcement Trailer on YouTube!
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWmuHIllETs
---
In a charming, hand-drawn world where bubbles fall endlessly, you start as a lone bubble popper -- clicking away to build combos and collect rewards. There’s something inherently satisfying about hearing that pop and watching your score climb.
Before long, you'll recruit adorable cats to lend a paw. Your first helper simply pops bubbles in its range, and soon you'll unlock the magical Unicat -- a special feline that periodically transforms nearby bubbles into star bubbles worth x15 more. You can either cash in on those big rewards or set up a chain reaction of bubble conversions.
As your bubble empire grows, you’ll uncover mysterious shrines housing special cats with unique powers and minigames. With nine distinct shrines, a deep prestige system that offers permanent, game-changing upgrades (forget the boring +1% boosts), timed milestones for speedrunners, and over 350 achievements for the completionists, there’s plenty to keep you engaged.
---
You can check out the source code on GitHub:
- https://github.com/vittorioromeo/VRSFML/tree/bubble_idle/exa...
The game code is very rough around the edges (trying to meet my release deadline...), but I'm quite proud of the library code. If interested, find out more about my fork of SFML here:

Author: rajataghi
Description: Hello! I made a simple chrome extension to help you scroll through comments on HN posts. For posts with lots of comments, I found it quite cumbersome to move from thread-to-thread. So, I made this small extension that scrolls to the next root thread for you! Try it out! Any feedback is appreciated.

40. Show HN: (Git) Repository Healthcheck
URL: https://repohealth.flipboxstudio.com/
Author: all_iv
Description: As a computer science lecturer, I needed a better way to evaluate student software projects beyond just the final output. I built this tool to analyze repository health metrics (commit patterns, code quality, team collaboration) across GitLab, GitHub, and Azure DevOps repositories. This is not a final decision for their grade, rather a tool for me to start further discussions on their teamwork.
It uses personal access tokens for quick authentication - no complex OAuth setup needed. Just paste your token and start analyzing. The tool provides insights like:
- Code activity and commit quality metrics
- Branch management health
- Team collaboration patterns
- Pipeline performance
Please give me your feedback on this project. What kind of metrics should I add(or remove)?
Thanks

URL: https://sheets.co/
Author: dwinoren
Description: I know, URL shorteners are a dime a dozen. Since I work on spreadsheets (A LOT) and share them quite often — both privately (on emails) and publicly (on social media / speaking events), figured I'll create something easy to remember and specific to what I want to share. Turned out A VERY FEW in the world might get some use out of it too so here goes :)

47. Show HN: Postthebills.com – Look at Posters
URL: https://postthebills.com/
Author: forthwall
Description: Hello HN!
I made this site that allows you to contribute and see posters (bills) around San Francisco. I tried building it in a way where contribution can be done without me needing the host a web server, and just host this on a free static site service (cloudflare pages).
Why I made it? I think it's pretty cool to preserve things online, and since it's on github it can be easily cloned and rehosted and rebuilt for other cities in the world too.
So to contribute to this specific site, you can just visit https://postthebills.com/contribute.html, and use a github personal access token for this repository: https://github.com/4shub/postthebills.com, you can save the token with localstorage on your phone, then when walking around the city, take pics with the HTML image picker, and it'll automatically make a pull request for you for that repository. When it's approved, it kicks off a build job that adds a new static file photo.
I personally take photos of interesting/unique posters when I go on walks around the city.
Cheers!

48. Show HN: Rules-gen – CLI tool that generates Cursor and Windsurf rules
URL: https://www.npmjs.com/package/rules-gen
Author: dotmike
Description: Hi HN,
Built rules-gen, CLI tool that generates Cursor & windsurf rules. It takes stuff that’s public and gives an ergonomic way of accessing it in the CLI. It also can find rules based on your existing codebase.
npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/rules-gen repo: https://github.com/blencorp/rules-gen
My motivation is mainly that both cursor and windsurf are a little bit of a blank canvass. I always wished that both IDEs were more opinionated about helping me produce the best code possible. I think this will close the gap.
Would love to get your feedback. Would this be helpful to you? What should change?
Any feedback welcome. Thanks for taking a look.
