MicroUI – A tiny, portable, immediate-mode UI library written in ANSI C

Hey HN, I built a website to watch live baseball games in an 8-bit broadcast. It takes live MLB data streams and converts them into near real-time pixel art gamecasts.Been waiting to share this for when there’s actually a good slate of games happening since the site is pretty bare otherwise.Here is today&#x27;s schedule:Mets @ Reds - 9:40am PDT

Thanks for checking it out!

I&#x27;ve made a drawing app based on my physical sketching practice, using fluid sim and some shader tricks to mimic watercolor-style ink washes. Best used on iPad or with a drawing tablet. The linked article shows how the core engine works, with plenty of little interactive demos. It was fun to make, sharing in hopes others find it fun too :)

Why thinking out loud with someone beats thinking alone

Hey HN! I&#x27;m Zach from Adam (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;adam.new&#x2F;">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;adam.new&#x2F;</a>). We&#x27;re building AI agents for mechanical CAD software. We’ve built the company on two fundamental beliefs:- AI will be the primary medium for creating mechanical designs just like it is in software today.- The best paradigm for CAD generation is to generate CAD as code (text -&gt; code -&gt; CAD).We’re building CADAM, an open source Text to CAD platform. It&#x27;s a React app (TanStack Start) with a Supabase backend for auth, database, and file storage. Think of it like AI TinkerCAD.Demo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=iESOr7EGWqk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=iESOr7EGWqk</a>
Try it: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;adam.new&#x2F;cadam&#x2F;">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;adam.new&#x2F;cadam&#x2F;</a>What it does:- Generates parametric 3D models from natural language, with support for both text prompts and image references.- Outputs OpenSCAD code with automatically extracted parameters that surface as interactive sliders for instant dimension tweaking- Exports as .STL or .SCAD (plus OBJ, GLB&#x2F;GLTF, FBX, and DXF)Under the hood:- One agentic endpoint with two modes that swap system prompts and tools: a parametric mode that writes&#x2F;edits OpenSCAD via a build_parametric_model tool, and a mesh mode that generates 3D textured meshes.- Simple parameter tweaks bypass the model entirely; adjusting a slider does a deterministic regex update on the SCAD source, requiring no LLM call.- Model-agnostic via the Vercel AI SDK: Anthropic (Claude), Google (Gemini), and OpenAI&#x2F;others through OpenRouter, with adaptive thinking auto-enabled on newer models. Surprisingly, in our evals Gemini 3.1 Pro is the top model.- Runs fully in-browser by compiling OpenSCAD to WebAssembly (in a Web Worker, so the UI never blocks) and rendering with Three.js via React Three Fiber- Supports BOSL, BOSL2, and MCAD libraries, plus custom font support (Geist) for text in modelsFuture improvements:- Support both build123d and CadQuery. This will allow us to move beyond CSG primitives to constraint-driven modeling and provide direct comparisons to other code-as-CAD primitives.- Better spatial context: UI for face&#x2F;edge selection and viewport image integration to give LLMs spatial understandingYou can clone the repo and run it locally! Contributions are very welcome.
