Hey HN!

It's been a while since I last posted about Crylic, and I wanted to share an update on the project. Crylic is a tool for editing React visually, and it's now an open source project! The JavaScript ecosystem is massive, with many different libraries and frameworks; my hope is that by open sourcing Crylic, we can create a tool that can be used by anyone, regardless of their tech stack or technical background.

I believe that this tool has the potential to be a game changer for web developers, and I'm excited to see what the community can do with it! Even if Crylic itself doesn't end up being the tool that everyone uses, I hope that it can inspire other developers to create similar tools based on the fundamental technology that Crylic is built on.

Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy the tool!

This looks great! I don't do much front-end stuff, partly because it's usually not as much fun as swimming in the data lake. This really closes a gap and sets a high standard for other tools to follow.
I'm glad you like it! Yes that's my hope, I feel like it really democratizes frontend development and creates a new category for tools like this.
