https://stretchmytimeoff.com An algorithm to optimise vacation days using public holidays and weekends. Especially relevant at this time of year. I created it a year ago and receiv…

Hi, thanks for your feedback. GPT was able to make your change for Monday vs Sunday week starting :)

Hi, thanks for your feedback! The list of countries comes from a popular ISO-3166-1 npm package. I can see there was already much discussion about this topic over on their repo htt…

Thanks! Adding customisable fixed holiday days could be a nice idea :)

Thanks! I made options to change the year and leave balance, but not to change the first day of the year. Let me know if it still works if you enter the right number of days

Thanks! ChatGPT and I made the change for per-state support and to hide individual holidays each year :)

Thanks for the feedback! ChatGPT and I made the change to hide individual holidays for a country per year, click "edit list" :)

Hey HN! I built StretchMyTimeOff as a quick experiment using Cursor (Anysphere's AI code editor) and GPT-4o to see how far AI could go in building a simple, functional site. What i…

I agree. Edit: Removed exclamation point

Would be awesome if the submission guidelines are linked on the submission page itself
