Yes! It works with a joystick controller as well (and also on mobile)

Show HN: Forma ONNX Graph Viewer and Editor

Hey all!Most ONNX tooling stops at just "looking". For those of you who know about Netron, it allows you to read the graph but the moment you want to change something you're back in Python either using onnx-modifier or onnx.helper scripts. I wanted to click a node, change an attribute or rewire a connection and actually know whether the model still runs, within a web-page.This is exactly what...

Thanks for this. I am jumping too many steps. Good realization to read.

1. For my robotics tool, the response was really good. People enjoyed and even sent feedback and got a couple of issues opened on the repo too. I just think I need more reach for it.

2. Noted, thanks for the heads up!

You can quickly benchmark the model and compare it quickly by moving around/adding layers as you wish. But yeah your point makes sense too.

Makes sense. I too, know of many open-source projects in the same way. But when I compare with other open-source projects in the same niche which offer less features (as an example) getting more popularity. It just makes me think I am doing something wrong so that's why I asked.

Yeah not many. But the site that can only view ML model has over 30k GitHub stars.

0. Personal milestone really. Just want to see how much help I can be to others I guess. Hard to say.

1. One of my projects does almost the same stuff a proprietary software does so I am providing a free alternative. My other project is helpful in the sense that it does something no single-application does. Like there exists a site that can view ML models then there exists softwares that can edit and customize layers in a model. My tool does both in one. But yes you are right, maybe I am not selling my product in the right manner. Good idea to think about.

2. No :(. How can I go about creating one?

3. Fair enough

Thank you for these!

I got the most traction from the subreddit I posted it on. FYI I am measuring traction based on how many GitHub stars that repo got (which is a bad way to measure I know). But good idea, cheers!

from the ask-hn dept.

If someone has made a free-to-use tool that is open-source and legitmately helpful (and not AI slop). How do I get it to people?I have already posted it here on HN, on subreddits, on LinkedIn, and some forums. Where else can I post (for free)?What other social media platforms would be good for this?For context I have two tools: one is robotics related and the other is ML related.

Re:Aval: New open-source format for interactive video on the web on Wednesday July 15, 2026 @07:59PM (#48928822)
The fact that this solves the cross browser transparent video problem alone makes it interesting. Usually you are forced to serve WebM with alpha for Chrome/Firefox and HEVC with alpha for Safari but even then, trying to build hover states by hand-timing media seeks is a nightmare

Awesome!
Re:We taught our platform to learn its own pricing decisions on Sunday July 12, 2026 @06:47PM (#48885659)
How does the learner forget old data? If a model's price drops by 50%, or a new model is swapped into an existing rung, the historical weights learned from the old pricing/capability will actively harm routing decisions. Is there a decay factor on the weights or something else?
