I’m working on a small deployment tool called push2start[1].
The goal is to make Docker Compose apps easier to deploy from a laptop to a remote server without a lot of custom scripts.
Right now, I’m trying to keep Compose as the source of truth and avoid creating another mini orchestrator.
You point it at a compose file, it transfers only the images that need to come from local, then deploys and gives status, logs, and restart controls from one CLI.

#522jsonmaps.dev its a way to create maps and create storytelling maps that you can embed in your react application, I was quite tired of how AI wasn't able to generate reliable maps in my applications.Every map library has its own imperative API and the AI output was always broken, hallucinated, or unmaintainable with so many different formats that you can put on the map.
The story map part came out of wanting to build Mapbox-style scrollytelling easily. You define chapters with a camera view and content, and it handles the scroll-driven camera interpolation.
Stack: MapLibre under the hood, React, published as an npm package.

#523This week I'm on project #20 of my 25 projects in 25 weeks challenge! One was on the front page of Hacker News this weekend. It was humbling.

#524I just became a father and feel like it could be helpful if I have an app tracking my son's status. He has premature birth and we're all very worried about him.
I don't want my son's data to be sent to any 3rd party so I vibe coded: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bebilog/id6759827652

#525Working on Fairvisor — a tool for API governance and usage control.
The problem: one buggy integration, scraper, or infinite retry loop can suddenly explode your API costs or overload infrastructure before anyone notices.
Fairvisor acts as a guardrail in front of your API:
per-tenant and per-route rate limits
request budgets and soft/hard caps
anomaly alerts for sudden spikes
The edge component is open source (OpenResty / Nginx + Lua) and the SaaS part provides policy management and audit.
Still early, validating whether teams would use something like this instead of building internal scripts.

I remember reading that Docker Compose is for development environments only, and should not be used in production. Did that change?

#528My wife and I continue to work on Uruky, a EU-based Kagi alternative [1]. Since last month we got deals with a couple more search providers but we’re still waiting for EUSP/STAAN to provide us with an API key (we have progressed through a few more forms and signatures and legal stuff, though). We’ve continued to get some paid customers and have exited beta last week, given everyone seemed to be quite satisfied and th…
This sounds great, and I like it being EU-based (and, presumably, not reusing Yandex like Kagi famously does?)
Could you share more info about how you're building it? Like Kagi it wraps / reuses multiple other providers? How do you do that affordably, and how do you merge the results together into a good answer?

#529We're building Aucly: https://aucly.co.uk/ It's an auction website for schools, charities etc without the exploitative transaction fees. My wife and I are pretty heavily involved in our son's school PTA (parent teacher association) and have helped run school fundraising events for a few years, so we feel sort of like domain experts in this area :)
Besides the technical challenges, how difficult is it to handle the legal aspects? I imagine taxes, liabilities, etc. must play a big role?
