Show HN: Switch colors in dotfiles between light and dark quickly
I developed a solution to manage color themes for my dotfiles efficiently. By using a Makefile alongside the Mustache templating engine, I can switch between a dark theme for nighttime and a light theme for daytime with a single command.
Each color theme is defined in its own file, allowing for easy creation of new themes without the need to modify every individual dotfile. This approach streamlines the process of theme management across my configurations.

Show HN: I Made Fleschkey – Non-AI Text Editor with Readability Insights
Hello, HN! After weeks of being frustrated with bloated software and AI writing tools, I decided to make something different—something simpler. That's how I created Fleschkey, my privacy-first, AI-free text editor.
Fleschkey is for writers who want their work to be clear. It gives instant feedback with a readability score based on the Flesch-Kincaid formula, made in 1975—a system that's been used in many ways since then.
To me, privacy means more than opting in or out. It means no one can see or take your data unless there's a good reason. That’s why everything stays on your device—no cloud, no AI, no data collection, no worries.
By the way, the text above received the following scores: Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level: 7.16 Flesch Reading Ease Score: 67.55 Reading Level: 7th grade (Plain English) Average Words per Sentence: 13.38 Average Syllables per Word: 1.49 Sentences: 8 Words: 107 Characters (including spaces): 639
