Hi HN! Korean high school senior here, about to start CS in college.

I built a browser engine from scratch in C++ to understand how browsers work. First time using C++, 8 weeks of development, lots of debugging—but it works!

Features:

- HTML parsing with error correction

- CSS cascade and inheritance

- Block/inline layout engine

- Async image loading + caching

- Link navigation + history

Hardest parts:

- String parsing(html, css)

- Rendering

- Image Caching & Layout Reflowing

What I learned (beyond code):

- Systematic debugging is crucial

- Ship with known bugs rather than chase perfection

- The Power of "Why?"

~3,000 lines of C++17/Qt6. Would love feedback on code architecture and C++ best practices!

We’ve been working with automating coding agents in sandboxes as of late. It’s bewildering how poorly standardized and difficult to use each agent varies between each other.

We open-sourced the Sandbox Agent SDK based on tools we built internally to solve 3 problems:

1. Universal agent API: interact with any coding agent using the same API

2. Running agents inside the sandbox: Agent Sandbox provides a Rust binary that serves the universal agent API over HTTP, instead of having to futz with undocumented interfaces

3. Universal session schema: persisting sessions is always problematic, since we don’t want the source of truth for the conversation to live inside the container in a schema we don’t control

Agent Sandbox SDK has:

- Any coding agent: Universal API to interact with all agents with full feature coverage

- Server or SDK mode: Run as an HTTP server or with the TypeScript SDK

- Universal session schema: Universal schema to store agent transcripts

- Supports your sandbox provider: Daytona, E2B, Vercel Sandboxes, and more

- Lightweight, portable Rust binary: Install anywhere with 1 curl command

- OpenAPI spec: Well documented and easy to integrate

We will be adding much more in the coming weeks – would love to hear any feedback or questions.

I use Claude Code across multiple projects with different conventions and some shared repos just as it so happens to be the real world. Managing the config files (.claude/rules/, mcps.json, settings.json) by hand got tedious, so I built a local web UI for it.

This one started out as claude-config but migrated to coder-config as I'm adding others (Gemini, AG, Codex, etc).

Main features: - Visual editor for rules, permissions, and MCP servers - Project registry to switch between codebases - "Workstreams" to group related repos (frontend + API + shared libs) with shared context - Auto-load workstreams on cd to included folders - Also supports Gemini CLI and Codex CLI

Install: npm install -g coder-config coder-config ui # UI at http://localhost:3333 coder-config ui install # optionally, autostart on MacOS

It can also be installed as a PWA and live in your taskbar.

Open source, runs locally, no account needed. Feedback and contributions welcome!

Sorry, haven't had any chance to test on other OSes (linux/windows)
