Hey HN,

I’m excited to share Morsel, a modern, web-based visual editor for Modelica that I've been working on. It's part of the broader ModelScript compilation, analysis, and visualization framework.

Modelica is a powerful, object-oriented language for equation-based modeling of complex physical systems (mechanical, electrical, electronic, hydraulic, thermal, control, etc.). However, tooling in the Modelica ecosystem has historically been heavy, proprietary, or desktop-bound. I built Morsel to bring a fast, beautiful, and accessible Modelica modeling experience right to the browser.

Key Features ============

- Interactive Diagrams: High-performance visualization of Modelica connections and topologies using AntV X6.

- Synchronized Code Editor: Real-time, two-way synchronization between the visual diagram and the underlying Modelica code (powered by Monaco Editor).

- Intelligent Properties Panel: Easily edit component parameters, modifiers, and annotations through a responsive UI that directly manipulates the AST.

- Library Explorer: Navigate complex Modelica libraries (like the Modelica Standard Library) via an intuitive hierarchical tree view.

Under the Hood: ModelScript ===========================

Morsel is powered by ModelScript, a custom compilation engine written in TypeScript. ModelScript brings its own modern toolchain to Modelica:

- Custom Tree-Sitter Grammar: Fast and precise parsing for editor integrations and tooling.

- Semantic Analysis: Full scope and name resolution for complex Modelica hierarchies.

- Model Flattening: Translating hierarchical component architectures into flat Differential Algebraic Equations (DAEs).

Why I built this ================

I wanted an open-source (AGPL-3.0), modern front-end that could run entirely in the browser (or as a local web app) without sacrificing the power of the Modelica language. It's built on a modern stack (React, React Router, Vite, Tailwind, GitHub Primer) to provide a premium, responsive developer experience.

I am still actively developing Morsel and ModelScript and would love your feedback, bug reports, and contributions!

I'd be happy to answer any questions about the architecture, Modelica parsing, the tree-sitter grammar, or anything else!

The Qilin ransomware gang remained 'top dog' in January 2026 with over 100 observed cyber attacks to its name, amid a rapidly evolving, and fragmenting, cyber criminal ecosystem.

thefuck (https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck) in Rust – because life's too short for slow fucks.

500ms → 15ms startup. Same rules, 50x faster. 2x faster correction time as well.

I'm loving the momentum behind Linux, particularly Arch, right now. I've used it for years but recently have been switching all of my workflows to it. I wanted a quick way to see all my tasks at a glance without context-switching between apps. Since I already use Waybar, it felt like the natural place to make that available. There wasn't really something out there for that, and I had todos scattered amongst different local notes and Obsidian, so I built Tasuki to aggregate them together.

My startup helps companies save money on Snowflake, and over the past two years we've built out a lot of observability features based on customer requests.

We're launching these features for free for everyone. You can read more here: https://espresso.ai/post/observability
