Yes agreed! Also hoping people can start to use this metric in job offer negotiations.

Thanks for the UI advice, I'll work on this.

rlindskogon Show HN: Crowdsourcing art from Twitch chat and Stable Diffusion

How it works is twitch users enter prompts by using the chat using the “!p” prefix. When a user enters a prompt, the “countdown” timer starts. Every user in the chat can add to the prompt. When the timer completes, an image is generated from the prompt and stable diffusion that’s run on the cloud.

rlindskogon Show HN: Create apps from GraphQL APIs without writing code

Hey, author here. Thanks for the feedback, sorry about the lack of marketing material - I'll get better at it. Let me address some issues you brought up:

- "all i see is a video of someone fiddling with setting for an already completed app."

The demo isn't starting with an "already completed app". Graphite generates a default app based on your GraphQL schema, and it is up to the user to further customize it to their needs. That's why it looks "already completed".

- "where are the demo showing how to easy it will be to connect your graphql service to this."

Connecting to the GraphQL services was shown in the beginning of the demo video when I typed in the GraphQL URL.

- "where is the demo showing how to actually build a screen with data being pulled from graphql"

Every screen in the demo video showed data being pulled from GraphQL. Graphite generates the queries behind the scenes automatically without the user even knowing.

Thanks for the feedback, I get where you're coming from. I thought a lot about this. If you set it by type, then it wouldn't make sense either. Take pokemon() and pokemon() { evolutions } for example. For pokemon() you would expect a profile like component, and for evolutions you would expect a list item component, even though they are the same type (Pokemon). That being said, reusable components is on the roadmap, this is just the beginning.

Good point, it generates a web app! It's built with native tech so eventually native apps. I've heard that suggestion a lot, video coming soon. Thanks for the feedback!

That should be expected, I was having a hard time escaping periods in URL parameters properly. The invalid hostname problem should be fixed now.

Thanks for pointing that out I had no idea. My head has been buried in code, I've barely thought about marketing / branding. I’ll see what I can do.

Hey HN, I'm very excited to release GraphiteApps.com! My goal is to enable anyone to create apps from the worlds data, not just developers. Right now it only supports basic read-only apps, but in the future it will support full CRUD, and other datasources. Please checkout the free option - it includes 2 free apps.
