    You're right, there's no gradient.

    Great game! I really like how it removes any possible letters or connections. I managed to finish two zanagrams without any wrong answers. It’d be great if there was a way to gain …

    Great game. I love playing chess so this is quite a unique way to play it. One piece of feedback: dragging a piece on mobile seems inaccurate at times. I’m used to chess apps where…

    I waited a couple of years to get one. Glad I got it last December. Wouldn't have bought at this new price.

    I'm building a small video utility app, built on top of ffmpeg. It allows you to convert from/to different formats, split a video into clips, combine videos into a single one, take…

    I'm all for creating new frameworks that are faster and more secure. But I don't see how this one relates to Wordpress (not in PHP, serverless, not "plug and play", dependent on As…

    These road signs are iconic. They’re noticeable but not distracting. They inform without imposing themselves. There’s something very soothing about them. If you’ve ever taken the A…

    I was expecting it to open the FFmpeg website at the end.

    The website feels quite sluggish, especially when hovering color palettes. There's some missing CSS optimization here. And I'm not sure what the point is linking to a Github repo t…

    Interesting. I used Expo recently and loved the development experience. I also built a simple iPhone app with Swift, and it was a decent experience. I have plans of building anothe…

    Thanks for the feedback. The toggle should be simple enough actually. Adding a soundfont is also a good idea (I'd never heard the term before).

    Show HN: ChordsCrush, a free musical chord training game

    I've always wanted to practice playing piano chords on my computer, so I built this simple game that gives you a random chord to play. The game supports input from a computer keybo…

    Yes I think on mobile, having only the list scroll would be great. I actually had the Apple alarm interface in mind for a bit but thought implementing it would be more difficult. B…

    Thanks, that's great feedback. For number 2, that should be possible, since I have the position of each item in the list (and the position of the list itself. Using a might be the …

    Show HN: Picknplace.js, an alternative to drag-and-drop

    I find that the drag and drop experience can quickly become a nightmare, especially on mobile. To tap, hold, drag, and scroll, all at the same time, is both difficult to achieve, a…

    One of those apps that "just works". Been using it recently to share files between an Android phone and my Mac. Turns out it works better than Airdrop itself when I couldn't send a…
