Show HN: Angular 2 HN – A responsive Hacker News client built with Angular 2

Looks quite nice but it&#x27;s sloooow on my android device (note 5 using AC with a gigabit line). Takes about 5-6 seconds on average compared to less than one in a web browser.<p>That being said, the hn interface is poor on mobile.

Update: Just fixed the comment section to not load individually async. It now loads at a proper speed. A post with &gt; 1000 comments now takes ~ 200ms and 130KB (where it used to take ~15X longer).<p>Appreciate all the feedback folks. I&#x27;ll be updating the post pages in the next few days to do the same to make this app substantially faster.

Yeah I know, another Hacker News client? There seems to be a new one everyday.<p>I wanted to build one with a responsive UI that would provide a `native` feel regardless of which device you use. Decided to use Angular CLI, RxJS and Webpack to do the job.<p>There are definitely areas of improvement and I would love some feedback :)

I finished making something like this last week [1]. It sourced stories from both Reddit and hackernews. The UI to read comments also had some nice additions. Also built with Angular2.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sras.me&#x2F;reform&#x2F;#&#x2F;setconfig;reddit=programming,science,askscience;hackernews=topstories,beststories,askstories,showstories" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sras.me&#x2F;reform&#x2F;#&#x2F;setconfig;reddit=programming,scienc...</a>

Interesting. I am contemplating the shift from Angular 1 to 2. It is so vastly different.

GJ, this definitely looks good! Speed is OK imho, although you can feel a little delay on my device (OnePlus One).<p>However, I will probably stick to Materialistic (HN native Android App) for feature reasons.

This is amazing!
