I've been putting together a no-nonsense free invoice generator, for people (like myself) that only occasionally send invoices. It's more-or-less a WYSIWYG editor, and the state is stored in the URL, so you don't have to worry about keeping track of where you stored your copy - if you've sent someone an email with the link, you've got a copy. This project was born out of the frustration of trying to generate an invoice on my phone on the go, I found all the existing solutions to be quite awful (forced signups to paid subscriptions, clunky interface etc).

Would love to hear any feedback the HN crowd has. I'm aware of a couple of alignment issues, will fix them up tonight. Also, yes, there will be a "generate PDF" button, for now if you want a pdf I'd suggest using the Print dialog to "Save as PDF".

I just released an iPhone app called "KIN: Family Calendar" (https://www.kincalendar.com/). It is a Voice-first, AI-Native Shared Family Calendar. Actually, it is simply a replacement for Fridge Calendar. It solves one problem really well:

Capture everything going on in the Family.

Let me elaborate. Families attempt to use a Shared Calendar when things get hectic, but they don't capture everything going on, because most of these events are just too tedious to enter into a traditional Calendar. Voice Assistants are not tailored to capture the kinds of Events that families have. Examples below. So, families either don't use a Calendar, or one person in the family ends up spending too much time keeping everything in sync.

Examples of flexible events that KIN can handle: 1. Aditi has School board meeting on second Tuesday of every month. 2. Aadi has chess on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6 to 7, and Saturdays at 11. 3. Rushi has after-school Soccer every Wednesday starting April 3rd, for 10 weeks. 4. Create events from Screenshots or Photos.

Coming in next Release: - Send Reminders to other members in the Family! e.g, Remind Aditi to pick up Rushi from School tomorrow at 3 pm.

I’ve been building https://lowlow.bot, it tracks price changes on any website. I was inspired by https://camelcamelcamel.com, but wanted something that worked for more than just Amazon.

It’s been handy for big purchases I’m ok waiting for and stocking up on recurring non-perishable essentials when they go on sale. It also lets me know when something has come back in stock.

Working on Runno ( https://runno.dev/ ) as a side project. It's a tool for running code in the browser for educational use. [Edit]: I wrote a re-introduction to Runno: The WebComponent for Code over the weekend ( https://runno.dev/articles/web-component/ ) I've been playing around with turning it into a sandbox for running code in Python ( https://runno.dev/articles/sandbox-python/ ). This would allow you to safely e…

Awesome! Have you considered pyodide[1]? Pydantic uses this for sandboxing its AI agents [2].

We're building https://tripjam.com after being frustrated with planning trips in regular group chats and trying to organize information across multiple apps. It combines: - Group chat that keeps all travel discussions in one thread - Interactive maps where everyone can pin locations and add notes - Collaborative itineraries that sync with your calendar - AI travel assistant that suggests activities and helps optimize…
