• Part-DB: open-source inventory management system for your electronic components

  PartsBox founder here. I get asked about this sometimes, so I'll answer here: I'm quite happy with open-source solutions appearing in the same problem space. I bought ECDB, but left the open-source software available on GitHub for anyone who wishes to take it further. My software will not be open-source for a number of reasons, most importantly I cannot afford to take on the chores of a project leader/maintainer.... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

  Man I miss Flash too! Tumult Hype is the closest thing to it, but the editor's Mac only. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Are there things that Flash did that we still can’t do with today’s web?

  I keep hoping that we’ll be able to package Flash-grade animations as WASM and send them out as a single file (or as two files, one for a Haxe-like runtime and another for the game or animation). But since there is no real standard authoring tool (and nobody mentions those, or the ease of use the Flash “IDE” had) I don’t have much hope. The closest I’ve seen (and actually use) is Hype (https://tumult.com/hype/),... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  On Mac there is Hype. The earlier versions were pretty good, but I haven't used the latest. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  BTW, you might also want to check out Tumult Hype, I used it for some projects that were similar. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
