New best story on Hacker News: Show HN: Boardzilla, a framework for making web-based board games

Show HN: Boardzilla, a framework for making web-based board games 475 by joshbuddy | 82 comments on Hacker News. Show HN: Boardzilla, a framework for making web-based board games Tldr: We’ve made a framework for web-based board games. You can try out some games over at https://boardzilla.io , or you can take a look at https://ift.tt/yKRqWIe to learn more about how to develop your own game. Source is available at https://ift.tt/1NHFeEU Hey y’all. My brother and I have made a framework for board games. During the pandemic we started to look at BGA but got discouraged by how old-fashioned the tools were and how cumbersome the development process was. We set out to make our own framework where you could use the same code for both the client and server. Our hope is anyone familiar with Typescript and CSS could code up a game without worrying about state management, persistence or networking. It’s still very much a wip, and we're rapidly adding features and games. But we’ve got our fi

New best story on Hacker News: Tell HN: Russia has started blocking OpenVPN/WireGuard connections

Tell HN: Russia has started blocking OpenVPN/WireGuard connections 433 by itvision | 226 comments on Hacker News. For the past three days Russians have been unable to use their VPN services working via OpenVPN/WireGuard protocols, and some even have reported that in certain situations SSH connections have stopped working. The prospect of an isolated Russian interweb has become oh so real. As a person currently residing in Russia I can confirm that I've been unable to connect to my favourite VPN provider for the past three days, not even its official application works. I've not seen any discussions on the English-peaking Internet, not it's been in the news for some reasons despite its importance in preserving freedom of information and opinions. In the Russian internet it's being hotly debated here: https://ift.tt/fm7jN6d... More on the topic: https://ift.tt/hnQRVeg

New best story on Hacker News: Show HN: Marimo – an open-source reactive notebook for Python

Show HN: Marimo – an open-source reactive notebook for Python 431 by akshayka | 106 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN! We’re excited to share marimo, an open-source reactive notebook for Python [1]. marimo aims to solve well-known problems with traditional notebooks [2]: marimo notebooks are reproducible (no hidden state), git-friendly (stored as Python files), executable as Python scripts, and deployable as web apps. GitHub repo: https://ift.tt/TD5oRwi In marimo, a notebook’s code, outputs, and program state are always consistent. Run a cell and marimo reacts by automatically running the cells that reference its declared variables. Delete a cell and marimo scrubs its variables from program memory, eliminating hidden state. Our reactive runtime is based on static analysis, so it’s performant. If you’re worried about accidentally triggering expensive computations, you can disable specific cells from auto-running. marimo comes with UI elements like sliders, a dataframe transformer, and i

Show HN: I made an app that consolidated 18 apps (doc, sheet, form, site, chat…) 554 by harrisonlo | 170 comments on Hacker News. Nino is a radical approach to solve the app chaos problem for today's knowledge worker. I believe there are still too many tools; even using them becomes work in itself. I'm building all these apps from scratch in one place, using the same database and UI, with the flexibility to eventually support the majority of work from one "superapp." Currently there are 18 apps (called "modules") on Nino: - Database types: Sheet, Form, Calendar, Gallery, Board, Todo, List - Composition types: Doc, Slide, Drive, Notebook, Canvas, Grid, Blog, Site - Communication types: Channel, Chat, Meet I want to improve these modules and build more. Your feedback is important! FAQ: How is it different from Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, or startups like Notion and Clickup? A: I think Nino has a better foundation to (1) consolidate a lot more apps than
