Hi HN! I built aiexpo.app — a directory of 1,600+ AI tools across 70+ categories.

I started it 2 months ago because I was frustrated searching for AI tools across dozens of different sites. Everything is in one place: compare tools, filter by category, read reviews, find free alternatives.

Covers everything from AI chatbots, image generators, coding tools, video tools, to AI agents.

Updated daily as new tools launch.

Happy to answer any questions about how I built it or what's in there!

I continue to work on my city builder game Microlandia, launched here in HN ~6 months ago. I originally predicted a few dozen urbanism nerds would play it, but now almost 10,000 copies sold. I'm still a solo developer but now I collaborate with 2D, 3D and music artists. Which is good because the original art that I drew myself for the launch was horrible. I'm currently working on modeling energy, climate and new poli…

Still working on https://fabric.shivan.dev/ - its a local-first app which lets you review markdown, answer Q&As and review code with your agents. Still working out a few bugs as I use it in my workflow. Also added a CLI.

Not sure if I should be monetising this in anyway - maybe through a cloud sync feature. But it's useful enough for me right now.

I'm continuing my work on https://thingstohave.app – a flexible and social wishlist app.

Usually, I barely report on this thread once every few months, but this month was highly productive:

1. I changed how lists appeared in the UI to fix a very annoying pattern where users were confusing lists and things. 2. I finished adding image uploads. Now you can add and view image attachments.

This was quite a challenging task because there are a lot of security implications, and Cloudflare Workers don't support sharp. So I was implementing all the pixel bomb detection, optimizations, and other stuff by myself. Also, self hosted https://imgproxy.net came in handy as a price-efficient image processing solution.

While images are seen in List view (with a layout I'm very proud about!), gallery view is still under testing, as I'm still not completely happy with how it integrates with previous UI decisions. 3. I developed, and delivered ton of small QoL features and bugfixes. Also a few bigger features are in testing. 4. Generally, the app is close to being feature-complete for V1, so I'm slowly starting to work on marketing. It is way less entertaining than reiterating on the same for 2 years straight:(
