Show HN: Visual Scripting for Golanghttps://symphony.q3k.app
Hi Folks, For a long time I wanted to build a universal visual scripting program that was like unreal's blueprints but for the languages that I enjoy. I've given a fair few attempts but AI has allowed me to build something I really enjoy using and with tools that I have found make working with complex code bases a bit more visual which is something that helps me a lot. I also have sons who love coding in various languages so I wanted to build something that helped people who are learning to code transition from stuff like scratch. Give it a go, see what you think. Enjoy! Comments URL: https:/…

Hi HN! I've been working on this for the past few weeks. I've been using GitKraken for a whole 10 years now, and I've always loved it, but lately I've found it to be a bottleneck, and I haven't seen it improve the features I really care about. So, as many others have done recently, I took a shot at using Opus 5.5 to help me build my dream Git GUI app. I did take massive inspiration from GitKraken (the look and feel is a close match since it's what I feel comfortable with) but everything is built from scratch. I made lots of different UX choices that I think help streamline things. Most import…

It will grow into a convenient multi-OS runtime that can do what other AI libraries and harnesses do. For now it’s a technical demo with two modes: a CLI coder, and a spatial canvas that’s very handy for a lot of everyday work. I think the canvas mode is the kind of software we’ll all be using in the 2030s. I don’t have a name for it yet, so for now let’s call i…
