Author here. The interesting part is how it's built. The whole engine is PCRE2 compiled to WASM, ~92 KB over the wire, and no roundtrips to the server. Probably has a few bugs I haven't found out yet :) The PCRE2 engine compiles the pattern with callouts enabled which inserts a callout before every item,and each callout carries the source offset and length of the item that follows it. The visualisations are based on capturing the callout data. You can try it here: https://roundtoe.com/regexray PS. just noticed the post shows the social card for the site, any way to suppress that? submitted by…

Hey people! I have been compiling a directory of AI API providers which provide a combined total of $4.3k in free API credits and I'm super proud of it so far. It serves as a community-curated directory. Everyone can review, upvote and edit API providers to keep the directory honest and accurate. After tons of hours I've managed to compile a database of 310 API providers. The directory also allows you to link all 310 API providers, to create one OpenAI- and Claude-compatible gateway then route any model, through any vendor - via a single URL with failover aliases, daily spend caps and per-req…

I use Excalidraw and iTerm a lot. So I decided to build a canvas where I can launch and manage my agents using the AI subscriptions I already have. I also added built-in MCP tools that let agents create diagrams, turn GitHub issues into sticky notes, and more. I control most things with my voice. It can run Parakeet locally, or you can switch to GPT Realtime instead. I tried to keep everything super minimal and clean. I’d say it’s worth checking out. Cheers!
