I have tried a lot of the agenting frameworks, especially Ignore, Open AI Agent SDK, and Language Graph, but I am not happy with all of this framework. I am still missing speed, performance, and the capability, like Hermes and Open CLO Agent.

I am thinking too: if I do not have a good, underrated agent framework, please suggest. Otherwise, I am thinking of building my own agent SDK. I know this will be best of the time, but I am thinking of it now, seriously, because I am building a lot of projects. I am thinking that I can create my own personalised agent at the end of the work that I can change according to my use cases. It's

good morningNew Doodle project is live -> https://doodleai.art/ I started this project for the Kiro Hackathon and honestly now I just love building this lol. Not sure if I’ll get any return from this or not, but still feels worth building instead of just making some random .lol siteStill adding more features, but you can try it now. You’ll get some signup credits too. It’s open source, so if...

Re:Claude Code for Infrastructure on Wednesday February 04, 2026 @10:47PM (#46895436)
I’m building the app https://picxstudio.com using Claude Code. It’s an AI image-generation site. I tried using a lightweight LLM to write prompts, but Claude Code with Claude Opus 4.5 writes prompts automatically without even asking. It just adds proper lighting and better details by default. I’ve noticed a huge difference in the generated images — Claude Opus 4.5 prompts are way better.
Can I use this for other use cases instead of game videos? I want to create film-style scenes, cinematic elements, and smooth motion effects. I’m also thinking of deploying it as a SaaS and using it for video creation features in my app: https://picxstudio.com/
Re:Selling SaaS in Japan on Monday January 19, 2026 @11:05PM (#46687800)
I am creating the SaaS https://picxstudio.com, and I am the only developer. I don't know how to sell or do marketing, and I don't like the idea of having a partner or co-founder because I have put in 100% effort while others might not contribute equally. So, please tell me how I can sell this app in Japan. Japanese people love creating AI images, videos, and applications, and the best feature of my application is that it's chat-based and supports native language (Japanese), so users don't need to use English at all.
Re:FLUX.2 [Klein]: Towards Interactive Visual Intelligence on Saturday January 17, 2026 @11:33PM (#46664802)
Has anyone tried Flux 2 Klein? Lately, I’ve stopped chasing new models. I’m genuinely happy with Nano Banana Pro—the results are solid, so I’m building the entire app around just this one model.

Re:Map To Poster – Create Art of your favourite city on Saturday January 17, 2026 @08:02PM (#46663789)
Are you using a coding package or graph-based approach for this, or is it standard image generation? I’ve seen very similar results on https://picxstudio.com —it’s an AI image generation platform.
Re:Apple picks Google's Gemini to power Siri on Monday January 12, 2026 @03:26PM (#46593797)
Yes, the Gemini models are really good right now—especially the image models. The Nano Banana Pro model looks super promising. I’m planning to integrate image generation into mobile apps and other platforms. Apple has massive distribution, but it still feels like they haven’t fully integrated this kind of tech yet, so users have to rely on third-party apps to get top-quality results.

At the moment, I’m using https://picxstudio.com to generate 4K-quality images with the Nano Banana Pro model, but my goal is to build my own app that delivers the same level of quality and control.

I agree with you — the model itself is strong. The real challenge is prompting. Not everyone knows how to write detailed, high-quality prompts, and that’s exactly the gap we’re solving with https://picxstudio.com .

We’re building curated prompt collections and an AI agent that uses prompt templates + RAG-based knowledge to generate better prompts automatically. In some cases, structured (JSON-style) prompts give much better results — but getting those right consistently is hard and honestly very trial-and-error.

Our goal is simple: users shouldn’t have to be prompt experts to get high-quality results.

Re:Ask HN: Pivot from SWE to What? on Friday December 26, 2025 @02:54PM (#46395539)
Bro, you got laid off — I actually quit my job.

They kept pushing extra work with zero upside, so I made a call: If I’m going to grind harder, it might as well be for myself, not someone else.

That’s how my indie hacking journey started — and honestly, you can start too.

Right now is the best time to build your own AI SaaS. If you’re into content creation but feel stuck, don’t overthink it — use AI to move faster. It’s not cheating, it’s leverage.

I’ve just started myself. https://youtu.be/BOqNr6a3N_0?si=ntsT22hJGGsbXIqQ

One real talk thing though: This path isn’t easy. Building is the fun part — but marketing + sales matter more than code. Focus there, or the product won’t matter.

If you’re serious, start now. Timing won’t get better.

By 2026, I plan to stop writing code myself and go all-in on AI coding tools like Claude. My focus will shift entirely to marketing, building products, and scaling my own company. AI is changing the game—soon, one person will be able to build a billion-dollar company with AI doing the heavy lifting.
This works fine for casual use, but for professional, high-quality result especially with Nano Banana Pro —you need proper tools. Platforms like https://picxstudio.com and Higgsfield AI deliver way better output with advanced controls. That’s why I use those—and honestly, image editing directly on X just doesn’t cut it.
Do you support integrations or provide open-source APIs? I want to integrate this with https://picxstudio.com and enable easy, browser-based downloads in multiple image formats.

Re:Show HN: Nano Banana Video – AI Text/Image-to-Video in 2.1s on Thursday December 25, 2025 @04:46AM (#46383360)
Great product—love the domain and the Nano Banana model choice.

I’m building picxstudio.com , focused only on image generation (no video for now). Since you’re doing video, maybe we can feature each other—users often want both.

I’ll probably explore video later when VEO-5 drops. Let me know what you think

Re:Why is Hacker News red? Christmas? on Thursday December 25, 2025 @02:07AM (#46382719)
The red looks great overall. Changing the text to white might improve contrast and readability. I experimented with red in my app, but it didn’t work visually, so I moved to a snowfall theme.
I like this because most of the time I need random stuff—numbers, quick searches, or ideas—and this helps instantly.
