Show HN: Remake – Build web apps with HTML

Hi HN,<p>I made Remake 2 years ago while working on a separate project. [0]<p>I started that project off with 6 months of research (interviewing potential customers) and 6 months of designing the pages.<p>I wasn&#x27;t looking forward to spending another 6-12 months building it all out. I needed a quicker path.<p>Then the idea came to me: HTML &amp; JSON have very similar structures. They&#x27;re both ways of storing deeply nested page state. What if I could connect them together and make a really simple way of building web apps?<p>All I needed to do was convert deeply nested HTML into deeply nested JSON (by tagging elements as being arrays, objects, or keys in those objects) and save the result the current user&#x27;s account!<p>Then I could use whatever client-side plugins I wanted (date pickers, file uploaders, inline edit popovers) to edit the page — and sync the resulting JSON data to the backend automatically. It was a really exciting insight for me and would make building a full-stack app as simple as prototyping.<p>I could even use the data across pages because the JSON structure could, of course, be reused on every page.<p>That&#x27;s how I accidentally created a web app framework that lets you make web apps with only HTML templates. I&#x27;m really excited about bootstrapping it to profitability over the next year.<p>[0] RequestCreative.com

This looks super cool, congrats on launching! A few quick thoughts after spending about a minute on your landing page:<p>It took me too long to figure out exactly what Remake is (note: I didn’t watch the video and I think most people won’t either). I got the general gist but it didn’t fully click until I saw some code. If I wasn’t coming from your hacker news post, I probably would have bounced. Vague copy like “It works by converting your webpage&#x27;s visual elements into interactive data” didn’t really enlighten me.<p>In the live code example section, it would be helpful to be able to see the HTML, JSON data, and live preview all at once (I’m on mobile, not sure if this is different on desktop) to illustrate the connections between each of them. This relationship seems to be the highlight of your product, so highlight it. If this change was implemented and the section was placed up near the top of the page, maybe just below the fold, I would have understood immediately.<p>Other than the code, the graphic showing the dentist website builder with edit buttons and explanatory callouts did the most to clarify what this tool does, but it also confused me a bit. I suddenly wasn’t sure if Remake was meant specifically as a tool to create site templates that others can customize or as a general purpose framework for creating interactive applications. My understanding now is that it seems the latter enables the former, and more. If this graphic technique was used in the context of the trello example, I don’t think I would have had this confusion. All that said, I do think this graphic technique is much more effective than just showing screenshots of the 3 example projects, maybe you could add some callouts to those images too to show exactly what Remake is enabling in each of them.<p>Regarding UX on mobile, the testimonials section is causing layout jank as the testimonial changes and causes the section to grow and shrink in height, repeatedly shifting all of the content below up and down by a few dozen pixels.<p>Final thoughts: Right now, I feel Remake is a bit unsure of its target customer. It seems split between people who know very little code (e.g. designers who know the basics of code and want a simple tool to increase their power), and people who know code well (e.g. web developers who want to save time but maintain flexibility). I think the landing page tries to appeal to everyone and falls a bit short on both. I certainly think it’s possible and smart to go for both and I think you’re very close, but you may benefit from targeting each of them more strategically.<p>All in all, great work! Hope my thoughts were somewhat helpful. Best of luck.

Hi there, looks like something I could use. However just a heads up I clicked through on the main CTA and then I landed here got an email but I was expecting a follow through and or next steps. You my want to direct users to look at the documentation or something to follow on. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;ieP6Trh" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;ieP6Trh</a><p>All the best
