   Has almost everything I need

   I've started using this as my main IDE for new projects when I'm trying things out. If it keeps getting better at the rate it has been, it'll be even better than coding locally.

   🏁 Competitors: replit

   👍 Pros:    Easy to get started and operate|Fast|Supports common extensions|Works with most npm packages

   👎 Cons:    Still not as good as local development|Can be hard to debug|Build times can be slower than local

• RS-X: Framework-agnostic reactive state and expressions for JavaScript/TS

  Managing reactive state and dependent computations in JavaScript can get complex, especially when combining asynchronous and synchronous data. RS-X is a library that allows you to bind expressions to plain objects and makes the parts of the model used by those expressions fully reactive. Dependent computations automatically update when the underlying data changes. RS-X is framework-agnostic. While it can drive UI... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Show HN: I combine Htmx, LiveView and SolidJS for interactive server components

  I like htmx, LiveView, React and Solid. They are great at different points, so I try to combine them in Solv (Stateless Offline-capable LiveView) and write a prototype to show the benefits. Solv's main idea is that stateless servers keep client's state in a volatile cache. It enables server components that are also interactive, which is best of both worlds between LiveView and htmx. Then fine-grained reactivity is... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Show HN: Solv – Stateless Offline-Capable LiveView – Prototype 03

  I like htmx, LiveView, React and Solid. They are great at different points, and this is a prototype trying to combine them. Solv's main idea is that stateless servers keep client's state in a volatile cache. It enables server components that are also interactive, which is best of both worlds between LiveView and htmx. Then fine-grained reactivity is added to achieve efficient DOM updates + minimal payload size.... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• AutoView - turning your blueprint into UI components (AI Code Generator)

  In the code editor tab (powered by StackBlitz), navigate to the env.ts file and enter your OpenAI key. Run npm run generate in the terminal to see how @autoview generates TypeScript frontend code from example schemas derived from both TypeScript types and OpenAPI documents. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• The 3-2-1 Backup Setup for Self-Hosters: restic + Backblaze B2

  In this guide I'll set up the backup system I actually run: restic pushing encrypted snapshots to Backblaze B2, automated on a timer, monitored, and — the part everyone skips — verified with a real restore. It works the same on a €5 VPS or a home-lab box. - Source: dev.to / 16 days ago

• Designing a Restore-First Desktop Backup Tool Around Restic (From Bash Script to Qt/C++)

  This realization is what led me from a small Bash script wrapped in KDialog to a full multithreaded Qt/C++ desktop application built around restic. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• resticprofile: Consolidating Exclusion Patterns, Generation Management, and Scheduling in a Single YAML File

  Resticprofile is a wrapper tool for centrally managing the configuration of restic. It is developed in Go and features cross-platform compatibility, just like restic. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Borg - Deduplicating Archiver with Compression and Encryption

  I switched to restic (https://restic.net/) and the backrest webui (https://github.com/garethgeorge/backrest) for Windows support. Files are deduplicated across machines with good compression support. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Ask HN: What are your peronsal data backup and sync setups? (2025)

  Used to be restic[1], but I switched to kopia[2]. For Android I just sync /storage/emulated/0/ with syncthing. All devices are backed up to a home server. Home server backups go to Backblaze (but any S3-compatible storage would do). 1. https://restic.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
