   Mimo The Minimalistic looking app

   been using mimo for a time and finished Python course as a noob, i can say it's a good experience since they made the course like having a bike with third wheel which is great for home learners, your brain not ready to debug something you don't know, that stage also is tought as a last lesson, how to debug your program, my experience was all in all great, and this coming from me a Lazy Person :)

• Show HN: Hacker Search – A semantic search engine for Hacker News

  Nice work! I'm sure you know that you can also search Google with site:https://news.ycombinator.com.
