Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (May 2024)
What are you working on? Any new ideas that you're thinking about?
I know there are plenty of alternatives, but I personally benefit a lot more from a dead simple web page, that does everything locally. It also helps with burnout, I like building very simple, but useful things (at least for myself).
I also have plans for a more serious project though. For a long time now I've been writing down what I would want from a ShaderToy-like website but for SVGs. I feel like there's a lot of potential in making it easy to create and reuse amazing animations with very little code.
I've also seen a lot of people praise the React + SVG combo and I can see why. I'd personally love an environment that I could just spin up instantly, create paths interactively, then create some effects quickly, and then use them wherever I want.
What i am working next: is actually the next version of that eval. The assessments can be improved in lots of ways and there are much more cases coming.
