Pretty cool. Though I think email is at a ripe time to be disrupted. It's too cluttered. I think people need new-er goal driven inboxes.

Auto tagging and AI solves a small part of it.

website is called - cachenotes.kanishkdan.com

(I didn't realise HN wouldn't show the subdomain next to the title)

yeah exactly that, I wanted a simple visualisation of how my twitter thread would look like it before posting it.

The AI helps on the side with the writing part in the same window.

Yep true, it's not mean for persistent data. I just wanted a simple, minimal note-taking software that didn't require logging in.

Though if there's any interest from folks, I could probably add a google sign in plus a backend service to store data (apart from the local storage)

Hahah sorry. It was just meant to be a cool, fun experiment with AI.
1) I would / the AI would, in bolt you can directly edit the codebase 2) Building an app from scratch with AI was just a cool fun experiment, I'll never charge for using this

It's blowing my mind that I could build an app from scratch in 3 hours and deploy it with the click of a button - without writing a single line of code myselfCacheNotes is a browser-based note-taking app that saves your notes, threads, and AI conversations securely in your browser's local storage100% free.

I recently added a way to connect GitHub repos with the bot, enabling it to send daily, weekly, or monthly summaries of your selected repos directly in Slack.

It’s fully integrated with natural language, so you can ask questions like:

“Hey, what did my engineers ship last week?” “What PR took the longest to merge?”

This feels like an exciting direction to explore further. I’m planning to add integrations with tools like HubSpot, Linear, Jira, etc., so all project, sales, and product data becomes available to query via natural language.

The goal? An AI project manager for your team.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this direction!

pretty cool! there's a limit to how much you can zoom out, I'd have liked that. Also the ability to hide the json input area.

Hey HN,I was a PM for ~ 4 years before deciding to ditch everything to learn how to build software on my own.As a PM, I was doing standups every day with our engineers, but whenever I'd need an update I'd still end up pinging them on Slack. Why?- No notes from those standup calls - Folks being unavailable - No solid insight from those standups.We ended up using a Standup tool but it didn't do...

Just sent you the access code!

Thanks for the kind words. Was planning to do the access code thing to get some feedback first, in hindsight I think I could just let everyone sign up. Seems like the best way to get feedback.

Thanks for the video! Would love to see you share feedback on the actual app too.

I started coding this year. Seeing my GitHub commit chart green daily became addictive.So I built a tool which could help me replicate the dopamine hit of filling up those squares for my other habits too.Friends wanted to use it, so I added features: leaderboard, custom avatars. Now sharing it with HN.No monetization plans yet. If it reaches 100+ users, might add more stats: productive...

Hey guys, I left my PM job in December to learn how to code.The plan, - Build something that "I" could build with my background (I haven't studied CS) - Something that already existed and I used so I didn't have to spend time finding PMFOver the past 4 months I've been building howsthisgoing.com (a standup bot for slack with AI summaries).
