Show HN: Replace "hub" by "ingest" in GitHub URLs for a prompt-friendly extract (Score: 150+ in 9 hours)
Link: https://readhacker.news/s/6j3Nh
Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6j3Nh
Gitingest is a open-source micro dev-tool that I made over the last week.
It turns any public Github repository into a text
extract that you can give to your favourite LLM easily.
Today I added this url trick to make it even easier to use!
How I use it myself:
- Quickly generate a README.md boilerplate for a project
- Ask LLMs questions about an undocumented codebase
It is still very much work in progress and I plan to add many more options (file size limits, exclude patterns..) and a public API
I hope this tool can help you
Your feedback is very valuable to help me prioritize
And contributions are welcome!

Show HN: Hacker Herald – like HN but with crowdsourced pics and subtitles (Score: 150+ in 8 hours)
Link: https://readhacker.news/s/6j6Kz
Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6j6Kz
Hi folks this is a project I worked on with some of my students when I was running an online JS programming course. Although the online course is no more, I finally got around to releasing Hacker Herald with a former instructor and student - thanks Arnav and Archis!
To those wondering if there is a need for such a Hacker News front end, I would just point out that most newspaper websites are laid out like this - clearly some people like this kind of layout!
Also for some stories a picture really does help - currently there is a HN story titled, "Portland airport grows with expansive mass timber roof canopy". But IMO it's better to actually see a picture of the timber roof while scrolling rather than having to click through to the article.

Show HN: Banan-OS, an Unix-like operating system written from scratch (Score: 150+ in 5 hours)
Link: https://readhacker.news/s/6j4vy
Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6j4vy
This is my operating system that I've been working for the past 2 years. All of the code is written exclusively by me except from ported software. banan-os has a monolithic kernel targeting x86 (i686) and x86_64 architectures. The project consists of bootloader, kernel and userspace libraries (libc, libGUI, libFont, ...). It also uses my custom C++ standard library partly based on stdc++.
Currently I have basic TTY and GUI environment with some of the basic UNIX utilities like cp, ls and stat. I have basic support for USB (keyboard/mouse/storage), disks (NVMe, AHCI), custom networking stack with TCP and UDP support, and a UNIX-like filesystem with /dev /tmp /proc filesystems.
The whole project is written in C++ except for my BIOS bootloader that is written in 16-bit real mode assembly. I have been testing the OS mainly on virtual machines but also frequently on real hardware.
