It does! I'm an avid vim user so I made sure it had ctrl-p, ctrl-w (for window switching), (slash space for search), a nerd tree equivalent file tree explorer. I build all features to be vim compliant first. Just toggle enable vim mode in the settings.

Oooh! Great!

I haven't really been developing with React recently, but will definitely check this out!

Me too. I know HN doesn't love YC companies but I was a little shocked.

I swear it isn't vaporware but there's only one way to find out.

There are definitely rough edges, we are after all a 2 man band but I don't ship things that don't work and it's admittedly not done great with older versions of React. You should try it though!

> I know HN doesn't love YC companies

I've always wondered why this is (after all HN is basically YC) and I feel like it wasn't this way before but don't have evidence. HN leans skeptical and critical so maybe the AI wave brings that out in spades

> I've always wondered why this is

Anyone here for too long does not get minimally impressed by Launch HNs anymore, and the quality isn't improving, to say the least.

Envy.

They see stuff that they could've built too, at least they think, but didn't so they shoot it down.

It's a bit of an aspirational name. For now it's just React, but we hope to get to support other frameworks that use JSX when we have more bandwidth!

Gotta respectfully disagree here but yeah, I definitely understand the remote workflow use case and why some folks want that.

I think if you're building something that is targeting designers that is the way to go.

Thanks for checking it out though!

> Are you saying you invented hot reload?

I'm not saying that, no. We are super dependent upon HMR servers from Vite/Next.

We made the ability to write back from your dev panel to your filesystem and made a JSX inspector. As far as I know these are not things supported by either Next or Vite.

> And browser CSS inspectors are really great

I couldn't agree more. I agree so much that we wanted to make one so that you could do the same to JSX as you can do to HTML.

> Can you explain the value add over all these free things we already have?

You should watch the demo video!

> How are you planning to acquire customers?

We haven't gotten much further than just launching and praying.

> Is this sponsored by yc?

I mean we're a YC portfolio company, so sort of I guess. I used to work at YC, so I suppose YC has been sponsoring me for a while now.

> Who are the target audience?

React developers

> Are the target audience companies or businesses or individuals?

Both, I hope. We definitely went more along the lines of supporting individual developers spiritually but there is no reason it shouldn't work if you have colleagues.

> Congratulations

<3 Thanks so much!

My UX feedback is that I had a natural inclination to click on one of the response comments to my query and expected to be redirected to that hn post and if possible scrolled to the comment. I know why you might not want that but as long as you’re using query Params and not doing anything weird with browser history I’d almost certainly toggle back.

I could definitely use this as an alternative to hn algolia for some things but it’s going to be hard for me to remember. I’d recommend doing this as a browser extension or something so it’s not 100% lost in the void.

Thanks for the feedback! That feature is there, just not discoverable enough!

Try clicking on the relative time (e.g. "over 1 year ago"). Should take you immediately to that comment on HN, and you can then hit back in your browser to return to Hacker Search.

Agreed on the extension. That's coming next!

This is great! Will try to give a try later

Narrator: they didn't.

Have to admit I'm slightly disappointed that the FF version only shows two users still and one of them is me.

Yeah, I had a similar thought. If they just removed the ai or only focused on building a voice command to mobile app sdk there could be something viable there. Sadly that’s just not what they made at all.

Yup, this reeks of sock puppets
