Shameless plug: I did create a very basic web based invite app with the goal of being platform agnostic - I really think having a app like Invites or my https://rsvp.ngo/ fills the need of getting invites out across platforms.

Hey HN,
We've been building WeatherWise, an extreme weather tracking app for your browser and iPhone with Android support on the way. You can track severe weather with the real-time, super-resolution weather radar available for the US, South Korea, Canada and Colombia. Our weather alerts, discussions and tropical related datasets are streamed instantly from the NWS into the app.
Thus far we support: - Real-time high resolution weather radar - For all available products - For all available elevations (tilts) - Playback synced with weather alerts, storm tracks and lightning - Data inspector showing the underlying value and 'gate altitude' - Near real-time satellite imagery (GOES-East & West) covering North & South America - All the outlooks from the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) - All severe weather alerts - Warnings - Statements - Watches - Discussions - Tropical weather updates - Storms - Disturbances
Our business model is freemium where we take free datasets and offer them conveniently in our app for free. We have plans for premium features which will add additional value on top.
We're rapidly iterating based on user feedback and pushing improvements every week. Feel free to follow us on [X](https://x.com/WxWiseApp) or [BlueSky](https://bsky.app/profile/wxwise.app)

Thanks! Yes, this is something I was considering - the addition of a webhook

We have found the same when working on our own projects. Within the last few months a friend and I have been working on our own FaaS: https://3clouds.io/
We believe it solves about 90% of those issues - it's currently under heavy development and not ready to be used in production yet, but we think we are on to something here. Check it out, let us know what you think.

About a year or 2 ago I saw someone here on HN suggest doing this very thing. If my memory is correct, I think it was after jQuery's CDN once became compromised.
[Edit] I think this was the discussion, just over a year ago! - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8359223

I have personally used in the past Fenix - http://fenixwebserver.com/
It's very easy to deploy sites and even runs http://localtunnel.me/ to share your locally hosted site over the web.

Thanks for the feedback!
The name was inspired by a post that gave us the idea, not to say it'll stay as this. I'm not too sure about this issue you're having, I can't replicate it.
If you go to http://lolbtn.co.uk/YOUR_HASH/stats you can use this as an API. Here is an example: http://lolbtn.co.uk/65h8r9/stats Edit: We just created this for you as our first reviewer, as thanks!
