Hi folks,

It’s been a while since we started to develop Amio platform to help developers, SaaS companies and brands implement different messaging platforms into their software, build bots or just optimise costs for SMS they’re sending. We’ve worked with banks, help-desk companies, delivery companies and also with single developers to fine tune our API.

Our ultimate goal is to make your development as easy as possible not just with clear API but also with extensive documentation full of examples, tools you need, integrations and message logs to see whats happening in all conversations.

Today, we’re officially launching our platform. We would be more than happy if you try our service and provide us with any feedback. Looking forward for what you will build!

Cheers, Matous from Amio

Here is a super useful article about how you should build login https://blog.codinghorror.com/the-god-login/ (if you don't want to rely on professionals from Auth0 or Okta :-). In the article, there is a very good statement "being user friendly is way more important than being secure" and this is exactly this case also...

Good point!

However this looks as a duplicate to official api network https://www.getpostman.com/api-network/ to me (as mentioned below). On the other hand, I like that you can share your collections, rate them and have a discussion. But what if Postman team decides for the same? :-)

Recently, I spoke to a guy who was working in IT department of one telco company and he told me that they did analysis on which platform (Facebook Messenger, Viber, WhatsApp) is mostly used based on number of data which flew through their infrastructure.

I think regulations of big players is what small businesses and end users can profit of, definitely.

That's exactly what's happening to me as well. I think it shows a battery percentage based on (old) current voltage which dramatically decreases with low temperature, i.e. when you pull your phone from warm pocket in cold weather.

I think that the market will decide. It will be a balance between few major things like: price, range, efficiency, safety and fancyness (cars are more emotional than rational :-).

The same happened in the beggining of car industry. https://auto.howstuffworks.com/fuel-efficiency/hybrid-techno...

You know how it goes with China and you know how it goes with Chines cars...

I like that it is online. Often, when you need a quick sketch for your presentation or colleges, you don't want to open a desktop tool (you might not even have).

I would appreciate drag-able interface on the right (I know it is hard but it would definitely be a plus).

Connect a git repo or gist would be also nice.

I've also seen integrations to Google Drive where you can store it as a document.

Do you have any further plans with this tool? Cover more UML diagrams and so.

And what is the use-case for this? I probably somehow miss it.

Then love it and wait for improvements. ;-) I think they will implement something on top of MySQL. And every-time you can ask startup for different pricing model am pretty sure they will be very flexible with it.

I'm not sure if GraphQL will ever replace REST as REST is suitable for most of the cases. REST is easier to grasp and still have a great tools and SDKs around. I know that there are fields where GraphQL is better but in general I think REST will remain No. 1.

I think Bloomberg as any other online news try to come with catchy titles like this one. Apparently, it works. Look at how many comments dit it bring here on HN. :-)

Another source of excellent documentation about CSS is https://css-tricks.com/

Definitely worth to read!

I think more relevant article would be about "Why to Go For Messenger App Over a Mobile App"

There are two other awesome projects which help you mock REST HTTP server:

- https://www.getpostman.com/ - https://apiary.io/

Maybe https://mailhaven.co/ is an alternative for you. It's a mailbox for packages basically.
