The weekly gist of new dev tools · First issue soon
New dev tools, minus the hype.
Every week, five to ten new developer tools and indie SaaS products. Two lines each: what it does and who it is for. Read it with your first coffee.
How it works
- 01
We read the launches
GitHub trending, Show HN, Product Hunt, and changelogs. Every week, so you do not have to.
- 02
We cut each one to two lines
What it does. Who it is for. No hype words and no launch-day spin.
- 03
You decide in seconds
Five to ten tools per issue. Every link goes to the product's own site. Three minutes, then back to work.

What lands in your inbox
Text first. One column. Nothing to scroll past.
Each issue opens with two or three lines of context, then the tools. It ends with one tool from Nuver Labs, the small studio that makes The Gist. That block is always marked, so you know what is ours.

The Gist
Sample, shortened
Three tools this week. One saves API calls in git, one is a terminal, one is an editor. Three minutes, then back to work.
- 1Bruno#api
Open-source API client that saves your collections as plain files in your repo. For developers who want API requests in git, not in a cloud workspace.
- 2Ghostty#terminal
Terminal emulator with a native UI on macOS and Linux and GPU rendering. For developers who spend the day in a terminal.
- 3Zed#productivity
Code editor written in Rust, with real-time collaboration and AI features built in. For developers who want a native editor.
From the lab
- 4TextBee#sms
Sends and receives SMS through your own Android phone, with a REST API. For developers who need texts for alerts or codes without a carrier contract.
