Explore color palettes inspired by 3000 master painter artworks
I built PaletteInspiration.com, a browsable archive of color palettes pulled from artworks by 3,000+ master painters (Monet, Vermeer, Raphael, Van Gogh). Why I built it: every color palette generator I tried converged on the same five muted pastels. Painters spent centuries figuring out color and we mostly ignore that body of work when picking colors for digital design. Please share your feedback on the Color Harmony Explorer - drag the wheel to any color and it shows which hues master painters historically paired with it (not only standard complementary, analogous, triadic, etc.) It is solely based on co-occurrence across thousands of real paintings. Not algorithmic color theory rules - actual empirical pairings. No signup, no paywall, no email capture. Just curious what people think.

Mstat a temperature and stat tracker for macOS in Zig and SwiftUI
Turns out it's weirdly hard to quickly check cpu temp on M series macs so whipped this up, also has cpu usage, memory, and lets you show multiple or just an icon for the popover.
Manim (3Blue1Brown's animation engine) in the browser via WebGPU
Grant Sanderson (3Blue1Brown) created Manim, the Python library he uses to make the math animations in his videos. We reimplemented Manim with the same Python API, but the implementation underneath is Rust, connected to Python through PyO3. The Rust code uses wgpu, so rendering happens on the GPU. To run it in the browser, we compiled the Rust parts to WebAssembly so the PyO3 extension loads in Pyodide. In the browser, wgpu targets the WebGPU API, so animations render in real time on your GPU through the browser. The editor is Monaco (the editor that powers VS Code) with a live preview: write your Manim code on one side, watch the animation update on the other. There's also a built-in AI agent if you'd rather vibe-code your animations.

I would say this is the real factory simulator game haha
Housecat.com
Hey we are Housecat. I've spend the last 15 years building dev tools at Heroku, Convox (YC S15), and Segment. Dev tools have gotten insanely good over the decades, now we're working to level up productivity tools for everyday work. Housecat is an email inbox running on an single-tenant agent computer with a durable workflow engine and connections to common tools for day-to-day work. My primary workflow with the product is for customer support: get a support email, trigger a triage process, open a GitHub issue, spin up a coding agent to fix it, and update the customer along the way. All from the same UI and sandbox. We've experimented with lots of different approaches to new workspace tools, and learned that many people still need a great GUI. We've landed on the email inbox as a very familiar and permanent surface and are building tools and automations directly inside it. Under the hood every user gets their own single-tenant sandbox VM and persistent SSD on exe.dev. User connections to Google, Slack, GitHub, etc. are managed in an external service so the VM and agent are subject to external governance and don’t have direct access to secrets. Durable workflows are built on DBOS.dev. Running interactive and deterministic workflows directly inside an email couldn’t feel more different than chatting about emails in Claude.app. The app is built on HTMX, Unix, Go, and SQLite. The app is source available to users and the Linux VM is fully open for a user and their agent to poke around. You can try it out at https://home.housecat.com/beta. It requires a Google / Gmail connection for the email app, which you can revoke any time. We'd love to share more and learn how the community here is managing email, agentic chat, and custom workflows for their work.
