go-git2 is a Go git library (read-only for now) using libgit2 transpiled to Go with wasm2go. As a result, it builds with CGO_ENABLED=0 and cross-compiles without a C toolchain.

While go-git has been great for my uses, its performance on larger repos and quirky differences from the git CLI output have been tricky to work with. I'm a huge fan of wasm2go and go-sqlite3 and wanted to apply the same approach and see what could be done. Incredibly happy with the results thus far, with 10-100x improvements on my real-world use cases. On the djangoβ¦

Show HN: XY Music Notationhttps://music.xy.dev
I've been playing around with a new kind of isomorphic music keyboard that uses a base-12 notation, and wanted some sheet music to learn some new music for it. The idea is to represent each note in 12-TET as a number, so N β (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,X,Y). I used codex to build a music score rendering backend based on MuseScore with custom note heads that display the pitch class of each note. I've found it pretty helpful for learning how to play my own instrument, so wanted to share in case anyone else was interested.

Show HN: Pippin β macOS High-Performance Screen Sharing Client for Linuxhttps://github.com/jonesy827/pippin
Hi HN, I built pippin, a native Rust client for macOS's "High-Performance" Screen Sharing mode on Linux. There are lots of options that can get you usable, high resolution remote access to macOS from non-Apple devices, but until recently there were no options that did not require installing and maintaining a server on your Mac. Apple normally restricts High-Performance Screen Sharing (HEVC 4:4:4 video, system audio, and dynamic display resizing) to Mac-to-Mac connections. A week or two ago I discovered iShareScreen ( https://github.com/renegadelink/iShareScreen ), which did the heavy liftingβ¦
