Show HN: I built a declarative layout engine for SVG, Canvas, WebGL Hey HN,<p>I built a tiny zero DOM layout engine for vector graphics and custom renderers to resolves nested rows&#x2F;cols&#x2F;grids into exact `{x, y, w, h}` boxes, with text measurement, overflow signals, and collision separation.<p>This is to help make SVG, PDF, Canvas responsive.<p>Feedback welcome from anyone building canvas&#x2F;SVG diagrams, dashboards, node editors, or diagram tools.

Show HN: GeoSpoof – your VPN hides your IP, but the browser leaks your location Hello HN,<p>I started building GeoSpoof after I noticed my IP says one country, but the browser still hands sites my real location. Websites were flagging me because of this discrepancy. I searched for a good geolocation spoofer, only to go down a rabbit hole that there are dozens of signals that your browser emits and no tool could cover them all on every platform.<p>GeoSpoof overrides every location-related API to present one consistent signal for location. You can search a city, enter coordinates, or hit &quot;Sync with VPN&quot; to auto-detect your exit region and match it, which re-syncs when you switch servers. The overrides are disguised (Function.prototype.toString returns [native code], iframes patched on insert) so they survive the common fingerprinting checks.<p>Some examples of APIs covered: - Geolocation - Date - Temporal - EXSLT - Worker &amp; Shared Worker (blob &#x2F; data &#x2F; URL scripts) - WebRTC - Deep engine-level spoofing on Chromium browsers with the CDP debugging api (opt-in)<p>It&#x27;s cross-browser (Firefox, Chrome&#x2F;Brave&#x2F;Edge, Safari), available on mobile platforms as well (Android Firefox, iOS Safari), MIT licensed, with no backend or telemetry.<p>Source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;anthonysgro&#x2F;geospoof" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;anthonysgro&#x2F;geospoof</a> · Verify page: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;geospoof.com&#x2F;verify" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;geospoof.com&#x2F;verify</a><p>Happy to answer questions about it :)

Show HN: Capcat – CLI/TUI to Archive Articles as Markdown and HTML (FOSS) Capcat is a python based CLI&#x2F;TUI FOSS utility for Ethical archiving of given website or RSS source.<p>The github repo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;stayukasabov&#x2F;capcat" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;stayukasabov&#x2F;capcat</a><p>It is generated with NLP, context-engineering, spec-driven development and LLMs.<p>Fully functional at <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;capcat.org" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;capcat.org</a>, with instructions for usage and documentation.<p>The project started from my personal needs of simple archiving with structure and moved to product design&#x2F;MVP exercise.<p>I am longtime HN user, and the most value I got in years of reading is always deep in the comments section.<p>For HN Capcat uses the official API, with rate-limits, identifies honesty with clear user agent and skips paywalled content. All usernames are anonymized with a link to the user profile.<p>The content is delivered in Markdown format (Obsidian ready with frontmatter) and optional HTML with dark&#x2F;light themes. Every source has its own YAML config file for separate control and PDF size limiter. In the folder users have an option to change the HTML theme with a minimal CSS design-system.<p>Please consider that my focus as a product designer is in UX. I have enough of a general culture and software development principles but the code is not validated, and my decisions in building may have a limitation.<p>Feedback is welcomed. Thanks in advance.

Lightning Memory-Mapped Database Manager (LMDB) 1.0

Show HN: Bramble – Local-first password manager I&#x27;m currently working on Bramble, an open source password manager with P2P cross-device sync. Initially I released the Chrome extension, but recently I also published the Android app and iOS is pending Apple&#x27;s approval. Besides that, the latest version also includes passkey storage for all platforms!<p>About Bramble:<p>It aims to be as feature-rich as all popular and a replacement for cloud-based providers. I don&#x27;t think we need to store our data in the cloud and be at the whims of companies raising their prices every year. There&#x27;s always a breach and then we find out that some fields aren&#x27;t encrypted, metadata is visible, and so on. I&#x27;m frustrated with this and the increasing lack of transparency during these breaches.<p>The P2P sync in Bramble uses a Nostr relay (which can be self-hosted) to keep your devices in sync. The relay just introduces the devices to each other; the data then flows directly over WebRTC, so there&#x27;s no vault server and no cloud copy of your passwords anywhere. What leaves your device is end-to-end encrypted and your devices authenticate each other directly, so a snooping or MITM relay gets practically nothing.<p>Crypto is all done in Rust so I can control exactly how key material lives and dies in memory (secrets get zeroed out, no GB leaving copies lying around). In Chromium it&#x27;s a wasm module, on mobile it&#x27;s native builds bridged over via uniffi.<p>Android app:<p>I&#x27;m still deciding whether to publish the app on Play store or simply provide the signed APK which users can sideload. Reason for that is Google&#x27;s plan to lock down Android and take away ownership from its users. Read more about it here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;keepandroidopen.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;keepandroidopen.com&#x2F;</a><p>The app uses no Play APIs whatsoever and runs perfectly on GrapheneOS, where I actually did all my testing.<p>Questions, feedback, feature requests - all welcome!<p>TL;DR: I dislike private-equity and venture funded companies messing with our security, so I created my own Password Manager which is local-first, free, open source and as transparent as it gets.
