Show HN: Next.js-like Python web framework, built for Htmx with FastAPI It's very early days for the project, but I wanted to share it to see if there is interest.

It is the final piece of the FastAPI server-side rendering stack I started building with FastHX and htmy (the two dependencies of this project besides FastAPI).

Think of it as a more powerful and convenient alternative to tools like FastHTML, powered by FastAPI (without any modifications). I hope you'll like it.

Show HN: Widen – Open-source Mac Postgres GUI with local or cloud text-to-SQL Github: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;betocmn&#x2F;widen" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;betocmn&#x2F;widen</a><p>I was paying for DataGrip for several years as my desktop database GUI but if I wanted text-to-SQL with LLMs I&#x27;d have to pay even more on top. So I decided to build my own and I&#x27;ve been using it for a few weeks now.<p>At any time I&#x27;m usually working with 3 to 6 databases, and having them set up in something like Conductor (for parallel agentic coding), but for Postgres databases, lets me quickly start a session, ask questions to my database in plain English, get a data export, move on and close the session. It&#x27;s been working well and I thought I would share it here.<p>It&#x27;s a native Mac app (Swift), free and open source (MIT). For the LLM you bring your own OpenRouter key, or there&#x27;s an experimental on-device mode using Apple&#x27;s local model, where nothing leaves your Mac. Cloud mode only sends the question and schema metadata, not your data, unless you explicitly turn that on per connection.
