Cool game

Show HN: DeskTab – See the browser tabs like apps on a phone home screen

You know how your phone shows apps in a nice grid and you just tap one? I wanted that for my 47 browser tabs.So I made a Chrome extension. Hit Cmd + . and a grid overlay pops up showing all your tabs. Click one, you're there. Close one, it's gone. Drag them around if you're feeling organized (you're not, but still).Fully vibe-coded, vanilla JS, no build step, no frameworks, no tracking, no...

Quirks are pretty much unavoidable. I tend to get better results using Codex. It sticks to established patterns. Slow, but more deliberate. Claude focuses more on speed.
Re:Writing a Good Claude.md on Monday December 01, 2025 @08:34AM (#46107205)
That kind of repetitive process belongs in a script, rather than baked into markdown prompts. Claude has custom hooks for that.

A well-documented codebase lets both developers and agentic models locate relevant code easily. If you treat the model like a teammate, extra docs for LLMs are unnecessary. IMHO. In frontend work, code moves quickly.
Re:Writing a Good Claude.md on Monday December 01, 2025 @08:05AM (#46106930)
I’m definitely interested in reducing token usage techniques. But with one session one problem I’ve never hit a context limit yet, especially when the problem is small and clearly defined using divide-and-conquer. Also, agentic models are improving at tool use and should require fewer tokens. I’ll take as many iterations as needed to ensure the code is correct.
Re:Writing a Good Claude.md on Monday December 01, 2025 @04:45AM (#46105422)
Writing and updating CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md feels like pointless to me. Humans are the real audience for documentation. The code changes too fast, and LLMs are stateless anyway. What’s been working is just letting the LLM explore the relevant part of the code to acquire the context, defining the problem or feature, and asking for a couple of ways to tackle it. All in a one short prompt. That usually gets me solid options to pick and build it out. And always do, one session for one problem. This is my lazy approach to getting useful help from an LLM.
Re:Show HN: I built a CLI tool to map your codebase for LLMs on Monday November 24, 2025 @07:33AM (#46033424)
Let cc/codex do research by themselves. I usually ask claude to scan codebase about specific part for context, describe my issue or feature then ask it to suggest solutions. Example : Study <subject>, I want to <fix/add feature>. What do you suggest ? From there, I have 2-3 different strategies options. Pick one, refine then implement.

Svg Tailwind combo makes hover animations easy and fun.
Another good alternative. Archived but still in used at work. https://github.com/nadeesha/ts-prune
Re:Show HN: TripClub – Plan Travel with AI on Thursday August 03, 2023 @01:57PM (#36989357)
Thanks! So I tried again. Here’s what I noticed 1. Date time is not local to the country I’d like to travel 2. Lack information about transport, routes, weather season, hotels, foods or restaurants, price… why not start with a country or region and be very good at it? Trip planning should be predictable 3. I want to see the places on map. Maybe? 4. Responsive but not fully on mobile

Overall this a hard problem you are trying to solve. I don’t even know where to start if I were you. Good luck!

A few demo trial without sign up would be much appreciated. Didn’t get the chance to see the results.

Very cool web app!

Re:Show HN: Trace, track your job applications with ease on Tuesday April 04, 2023 @07:20AM (#35437879)
I had a similar idea and ended up using either Airtable or Sheets. If you're creating a portfolio, I suggest including more screenshots of your application and storing the data using local storage. For me, the problem was not real - all I had to do was label the status of my applications as either applied, rejected, or pending for response.
Table on mobile is readable, but a custom list view is better in this case imo.
Re:Lua, a Misunderstood Language (2021) on Thursday September 29, 2022 @01:35PM (#33024318)
I discovered Moonscript with Lapis web framework. Then OpenResty (NGINX + Lua). Love it!
Nice! I got inspired by Splitwise and made BillBurst too. https://billburst.vercel.app/

Re:Show HN: My proposal for a new keyboard layout on Monday November 15, 2021 @02:00PM (#29231151)
Tested on Windows 10 with no issues.

I use QWERTY for coding but sometimes need to document other things in French. This is a pain killer.

Sleep at least 8 hours is a full charge for me.

A pricing page is surely what I look for in new saas.

I feel cheated but satisfying to watch
I used this tool for the same purpose, good alternative tho.

Svelte's built-in reactive store is my favorite feature. The output bundle size too.
