I'm building Your Next Store (YNS); it's a Shopify alternative built with React and Next.js.
We provide an opinionated boilerplate tailored for tools like Claude or Codex, so designers and developers can build storefronts faster and more easily. It enforces a clear structure to start from while keeping full control over design, animations, and the overall storefront experience. It’s built on top of Stripe, with our higher-level commerce abstractions, like "add to cart", "checkout", "pay", "browse products" etc; plus a Commerce CMS so merchants can manage everything smoothly once their store is live.
If youre planning to sell something online and want a modern solution, hit me up! :)

#76DIY grid-tied residential solar+inverter+battery. Trying to design the solar arrays' tilt mechanism now for lifting/lowering 5 panels at a time in winter (60-degree winter angle, 35-degree spring/summer/fall; ~24" difference). Thinking either two linear actuators, or a single hydraulic jack connected to multiple support beams. The weight isn't much, but I want a way to lift entire top edge at once to prevent twisting. Linear actuators are slightly more money and easier to build, but require power and weather-proofing. Jack is cheaper, but more complex to distribute force. Wondering if there's other options. (winch would require more robust/taller rear posts, seems more complex, might shade rear array)

#77A filmmaker community for those wanting to showcase their work. Right now everyone's got their own squarespace and the problem is that about 0 filmmakers also want to be web masters.
IMDB? Ads everywhere. Actor's Access? Ancient.
Human first, AI optional. A great way for actors, writers, and directors to represent themselves.
Feedback welcome! -M@

#78Porting LevelDB[1] to Seastar[2], for internal metadata storage in Redpanda[3]. Before you ask why can’t something off the shelf be used, seastar has unique constraints around its runtime and its memory allocator that means we can’t reuse an existing library.

#79I'm working on a poker server to allow holdem bots to play against each other (https://github.com/lox/pokerforbots) and a Pluribus-level bot that plays on it (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluribus_(poker_bot)).
Enjoying writing some really fast Zig implementations of hand evaluation and CFR-based solvers.

#80I'm building a tab manager extension for Chrome, that also kills duplicated tabs.
Why?
The one I used died (Manifest V2 only, and was not updated). And I wanted to test one-shot it.
Incredibly it worked!
