Hacker news

Hello HN!

I've been working on Canine for about a year now. It started when I was sick of paying the overhead of using stuff like Heroku, Render, Fly, etc to host some web apps that I've built. At one point I was paying over $400 a month for hosting these in the cloud. Last year I moved all my stuff to Hetzner.

For a 4GB machine, the cost of various providers:

Heroku = $260 Fly.io = $65 Render = $85 Hetzner = $4

(This problem gets a lot worse when you need > 4GB)

The only downside

Hello HN,

I built a Typescript library (named socket-call, for lack of a more sexy name) whose goal is to be able to call socket.io events as regular functions.

So you declare your server-side like so:

  ...
  const listenEvents = (services: UserServices) => ({
    // Add your events here, the name of the event is the name of the function
    login: async (username: string) => {
      services._socket.data.user = { username };
      console.log(`User ${username} logged in`);
