Show HN: I reverse engineered Byte and created my own Byte web app

Last week I reverse engineered a new app called Byte and created an unofficial web app for it. Byte is basically Vine reborn and it's even from the same cofounder of Vine.

This is the story of how I reverse engineered Byte, ported its mobile app functionality to the web and unofficially implemented a missing feature that was heavily requested by its users.

The creator of Byte, Dom Hofmann actually noticed what I did, complimented me on my work, and didn't even ask for me to take it down, so if you want to check out what I built and explore bytes on the web, visit: https://www.byte.community/

The code is open source on GitHub: https://github.com/CaliAlec/Byte-Community

I wrote a Medium article explaining how I did it: https://medium.com/@calialec/how-i-reverse-engineered-byte-a...

Thank you! No, I'm using Byte's assets for everything which is why it looks like the real app. The stars on the Spotlight button is a gif background.
