This should not be a Show HN as there is nothing you can actually try.

> Show HN is for something you've made that other people can play with. HN users can try it out, give you feedback, and ask questions in the thread [https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html]

If you upload binaries for the various platforms somewhere and link on the page, maybe mods be nice enough to let the post stay here?

Because the project looks awesome and I would to try it out in order to give feedback and use it myself.



Hmm, I guess it depends on how letter vs. spirit you'd like to interpret that in. It is still a project I spent years working on that I'd like to share with the community and get feedback on, so that I can potentially make it available.

Unfortunately at the moment there isn't really a reasonable way for me to make binaries available that would be useful for much. I'm going to go make a sandwich and then think a bit more about whether there's something I can do, though.

I assume the mods are fine wit it since they've already revised the title once.

You're technically correct.[0]

That said, I was extremely pleased to just have a glimpse at this project and would rather have it be a Show HN than not.

Upon further reflection I usually just look at most Show HNs without interacting, and I suspect many people are the same way.
