Challenge #4: Hyp - Micro-App Builder
After building tools for developers and businesses, I wanted my fourth project to be for everyone. I wanted to make something that would allow ordinary people to build a something. The result is Hyp.
You can find it here: https://hyp.app
Hyp is a platform that lets you create what I call "micro-apps" very quickly. These are simple, focused tools mainly famous open source tools like WordPress, n8n and so on . The goal is to remove the technical barrier completely.
Why This Stack? Speed and Familiarity.
For this project, I returned to the familiar web framework I used for the very first challenge (AIPrice). This was a deliberate choice for speed. The core technology is the same:
- Backend: KoaJS
- Frontend: VueJS 2 with NuxtJS
- Styling: Bootstrap 4
The main technical challenge with Hyp was making sure each user's app could run safely and independently. Docker Swarm was the perfect tool for this. It allows me to package and run these apps in isolated containers, scaling them easily as needed.
