Apr 2021 Launched

An innovative and re-imagined version of HN for this decade. With an improved UI/UX, story mode like Snapchat, and a focus to design it in a "202X" way for instant HN content consumption. Also, a new https://twitter.com/boxpiperapp in town will keep you HN updated, once a day.

What the Community Said

Very useful! A clean and simple design

I love the idea of this, but there’s no designer on this project, correct? This is another developer that doesn’t value or even know about design principles, right? Currently, this is unreadable on mobile. The text is so tiny and the background and colors are all off. Great idea 💡with poor execution.

Have been visiting box piper for last couple of days. The content is very useful and save a lot of time. It would be good, if there is possibility to bookmark the topics and news.
