Show HN: TableCraft – Stop burning AI tokens on table boilerplate

Thu, 02/19/2026 - 1:06pm

Hi HN, I kept using AI to generate the same data table code for every project — filtering, sorting, pagination, search, export. Same prompt. Same 200+ lines. Same debugging.

So I built TableCraft, a Drizzle ORM-powered table engine:

- Auto-generates columns from your database schema - Server-side filtering, sorting, pagination - Global search across specified columns - Date range picker with smart detection - CSV/Excel export - Column visibility, resizing, URL state sync - Role-based access control, soft delete support - TypeScript type generation via CLI

Backend (Hono/Express/Next.js/Elysia):

``` const users = defineTable(schema.users) .hide('password') .search('email', 'name') .sort('-createdAt') ```

Frontend (React):

``` ```

Adapters available for Hono, Express, Next.js, and Elysia (Bun).

Looking for contributors interested in building Vue and Svelte support.

Would love feedback from the community!

Idea: Medbook and Other Ideas

Thu, 02/19/2026 - 1:02pm

With the whole Moltbook thing (a site made for AI to post stuff among themselves), I was wondering if there could be an equivalent in which free time of agents is put to good use.

One thing that comes to mind is a kind of collaborative medical research platform. The trick is to increase as much as possible the likelihood that the research generated isn't junk; it's literally worth far more to produce a single plausible research direction than an infinite amount of junk. Bots could post ideas, and have a system of reviews and various checks to see if any proposed idea, proposed mechanism hypothesis, proposed solution, has merit (support from previous research, consistent with known medical facts, impactful, etc.). Of course, the platform should be very accessible to medical professionals to read the top research and bring it to the real world.

So, I'm not a very big builder, so I'm asking someone to make it :) (I volunteer free advisory for the platform if you do make it open source, maybe with a few ads or donations for revenue stream)

Have you tried Turing it off and on again?

Obligatory The IT Crowd: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3Dnn2FB1P_Mn8

But tech has improved since we had to be told by a human.

When my supermarket website fails to load my order, it tells me to reload the page.

When my Epson Ecotank printer locks itself up, it tels me to turn it off and on again.

Sigh.
