Show HN: YCombinato – A domain-hacked "Hacker News" client

Show HN: YCombinato – A domain-hacked "Hacker News" client 5 by gitgud | 0 comments on Hacker News.

If you want to generate SDKs for your own API try our tool here: https://ift.tt/BacqidT We are both software engineers, and we built this tool because we were spending too much time writing API integrations, supporting integrations, writing documentation, and manually testing APIs at our jobs. We think every engineer can benefit from spending less time on APIs. The generator is written in Rust because we need the rich type system, macros, and general correctness emphasis to generate working code. The SDKs are typed, they simplify auth, and they handle...

Show HN: Display all stories and comments for a specific Hacker News user 5 by simonpure | 2 comments on Hacker News. Hi HN, I have been exploring the Hacker News API [0] a bit and came up with this simple way of exploring a user's past submissions including the comments [1]. It's been fun to dig through some of the old submissions and reading the comments, so I thought I'd share. https://ift.tt/fEMAsu1 Caveat: For accounts with a lot of submissions, it may take a while to load.
